Democratic leadership in Congress presided of losing the House, Senate, White House and popular vote to MAGA.

The Democratic Party currently has a 29% approval rating.

Senator Schumer is canceling public appearances, fearing protest.

Yet the entire leadership remains intact?!

Democrats are being weak.

Just like they were weak on not passing Build Back Better.

Just like they were weak on not codifying Roe when they had the majority.

It’s time for new party leadership at the federal level.

The federal minimum wage is still $7.25/hour.

Republicans have held power, they have not raised the wage.

Democrats have held power, they have not raised the wage.

Both are complicit in the lack of action.

$7.25. Still. In 2025.

Unacceptable.

The Israeli military invaded Kamal Adwan Hospital, the last functioning hospital in northern Gaza, forcing staff and patients to walk on foot toward southern Gaza. Gaza’s Health Ministry reports losing contact with the hospital as a massive fire engulfs several departments.

The working class in this country is fed up and fighting back against corporate greed.

Withholding your labor is a right.

These are the reporting projects that tell the story that corporate media ignored & Dem pundits/elites tried to suppress.

It’s the story of Obama campaigning as a populist, then converting his mandate into a Wall St rescue — and that betrayal creating backlash conditions for Trump’s rise.

this is one of the fundamental problems with popularism. it can only ever be tactical, because in the long run treating polls as exogenous renders the whole exercise of politics deterministic.

Watching the Harris campaign repeatedly put the kibosh on Walz’s good ideas (most recently his call to abolish the electoral college). Starting to wonder if maybe he should have just stayed the governor of Minnesota where he has the power to actually effect positive change.

More generally, this article by Matt Duss is rightly damning of the Biden administration's quite contemptible policy.
"Benjamin Netanyahu ... Reached on the evening of September 11, 2001, ...was asked what the terrorist attacks ... meant for relations between the United States and Israel. “It’s very good,”' he said. Then he quickly edited himself: “Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.”"
Joe Biden Chose This Catastrophic Path Every Step of the Way
What’s happening in the Middle East was enabled by a president with ideological priors, aides who failed to push back, and a cheerleading media establishment.
