A core mistake that has been haunting Dems since trump emerged, is that they have been exclusively focused on defeating trumpism as opposed to broader challenges that have been building for decades. Far too much focus on post 2015 America and not enough on post 1975 America.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE

Something that has been clear for a long while now, Trump and a large amount of his base are at full dehumanization mode with liberals, leftists, Democrats, anyone who opposes them at all. They do not see us as legitimate citizens of "their country"...

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

WHY are news stations reading DHS statements out loud as if they have ANY credibility at all? They literally murdered a woman in cold blood LAST WEEK and are still lying about what happened, even though we can see what happened. That any credibility would be given to their statement is insane

I don't think people outside Minneapolis realize how uncharacteristic this is for Frey. Takes a lot to radicalize this guy.

This is fair, some folks are applying too much symbolic meaning to Platner and/or having a parasocial relationship with his candidacy. That said, there are real pragmatic reasons to not cast out Platner. Most importantly, there is no evidence thus far that Mills is actually more electable.
one of the interesting thing i have seen in the platner discourse is a refusal to confront a thing on its own terms. to his pundit supporters, platner isn’t a novice candidate with perhaps questionable judgment to be evaluated on his ability to win, but a symbol to wield against rivals

We can dunk on Silver. But the folks wildly hyping Adams in 2021-22 included Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden. The desire for a prominent BLACK politician who was pro-police and hostile to the BLM movement was broadly shared within elite Dem circles. They ignored obvious signs he was corrupt and inept.

Every pundit who took at face value the idea that the Right sincerely cares about free speech, or ideological diversity, or in fact has any principles at all, should be wearing a dunce cap and writing a lengthy mea culpa right now. Not for our catharsis but for public awareness at least

Jamelle is saying what some of us have been saying for years now. Trump is a normie republican and essentially always has been. In 2016 he was able to win in part because he positioned himself as a heterodox repub on econ issues, but it never happened.

Every House and Senate Democrat up for reelection in 2026 should face a primary if they don't make it clear they are anti-war with Iran. If Schumer & Jeffries rubber stamp this war, then we should support primary candidates who want them gone as party leaders.
