If you all cave, the Dem brand will be unrecoverable and Dem leadership will be on the mat, but we will keep fighting. You either fight for us or we will fight you, too.

The blowback on these 'centrist' fools (bending to the will of fascists is centrist these days apparently) if they capitulate on ACA funding will be enormous and merciless.

Are these dems out of their minds? They're going to cave now for what, a pinky promise they'll get a vote? The sheer delusion and unseriousness of these people is astounding. The backlash to this needs to be furious. Demand they fund healthcare for the people or NO DEAL.

"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.

Centrists have been declaring the socialist movement dead for years in spite of the victories it has racked up. But Zohran Mamdani’s win makes its rise undeniable.

What Really Happened in Portland Before Trump Deployed the National Guard
