There is no hell but the one Brian Thompson is in.

I’m an angry leftist— paying attention for decades made me this way.

If I offend you, know it’s only because we’re both workers who should be united and friends - and I’m mad we’re not.

Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

Are you still gonna vote blue no matter who when they keep funding ICE?

Adding, of course, the obvious connect here, which is ICE *IS* Gaza. It’s the same thing, the same fascism, the same oppression, the same paramilitary tactics. And since Democrats don’t want anyone to make that connection, they remain as silent on the Midwest Bank as they do the West Bank.

ICE is seriously going to be Gaza all over again for Democrats isn’t it. They’re going to try it again, insisting if they just don’t talk about it then it’s not actually an issue that matters to millions of voters.
NEW: In this interview, Chuck Schumer describes the "five buckets" Dems think are key to their possibly winning a Senate majority in 2026: housing, "the high price of food [and] food monopolies playing a major role there," electricity, "the high cost of childcare," and health care.
Zero Chucks Left to Give
Chuck Schumer now sees a path back to the majority. Can he manage his way through it?

It really does feel like they're actively trying to lose. They have their finger on something but it sure ain't the pulse of the public.

Looks that way to a lot of people in the United States, too.
Establishment Dems responding to the threatened annexation of Greenland by messaging about cost of living issues really don’t understand that to Europeans it looks like they either don’t see this as a crisis or are tacitly in favor of it. 1/x

The Newsom thing is because they think the pendulum effect will give the election to literally any Dem, which may well be true, so they want to make sure the nominee is as far-Right and ineffective as possible.

if you want a different party you need different leadership, and you also need to take a deep breath and realize that current leadership is BROADLY popular with electeds in the party, and accept the implications of that fact.

A Texas district in which Black students were allegedly taunted with monkey noises.

An Arizona school where students admitted saying “slavery is good.”

This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.

ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

In WW2, the US arrested & interned anyone who looked Japanese on the basis of questioning their loyalty... but then turned around and let the Silver League, the Bund and all the other American fascists walk around free and unrestrained.

So this is hardly a new situation if you think about it.

I've seen people saying things along the lines of "Europe should release any files they have and Trump will back off Greenland", people have completely lost all sense of perspective and think the Epstein files are some magic spell that can be invoked against Trump.
