It was 2001 so the jokes were… problematic

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

Bluesky liberals - heavily influenced by libertarians and right-wing Democrats - love to treat the economy as a distraction from Trump's attack on democracy.

Look how Mamdani ties them together. He gets it.

It’s unavoidable, even if they get their racist heart’s desires fully met a worker will still have to do the work and a capitalist will still do all they can to not pay them.

As these numbers make clear, economic populism is wildly popular, but people hate Democrats at some point that even economic populists who run as Democrats pay a price. The solution to this is just to follow the Sanders / Mamdani playbook: run to the left and attack Democrats

It's important to add that voters are not merely interested in improving their own finances: on issue after issue they are specifically interested in curtailing the power of the rich.

This isn't just a welfare agenda, this is a fight against capital.

i wonder if a sufficient number of viable democrats have it in them to effectively counter a narrative of "i am tanking the economy, firing everyone i can, and sending soldiers to push you around if i dont like the way you think, and also lee greenwood is the only music allowed"

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

In the contrary, I’ve never argued in more good faith than I am right now.

That’s how an economy is supposed to work right?

Like I'm sorry but it's impossible to see people make arguments against helping workers that you wouldn't make on any other issue and not think "these people are my enemy, they want me to suffer"
