I caught a lot of crap years ago for criticizing Pelosi's condescension to AOC and the rest of the squad years ago.

Once again, I was right. Here we are.

It’s continually bugged me how Pelosi has hindered AOC’s rise in the party…tonight it made me furious.
Senior dems are promoting younger dems who they can still use as puppets for their desired tactics.

At a time when Israel is once again carrying out genocide with total impunity, the Democrats are not about to cede space or power to The Squad.

I have never thought a Third Party was even worth considering. There was always "too much on the line". But at this point with Rethuglicans in full control, and leadership learning all the wrong lessons, a break by 25-50 electable progressives may be the only way to gain leverage on policy.

I agree.

Pelosi needs to GO.

I agree re: AOC, not Slotkin. She’s a real one.

Pelosi has been bad news for a long time. Media has been covering for her. And her own arrogance and thirst for power kept her around.

She was obnoxious and so were some of the boomer journalists back in 2019.

Envy really is a deadly sin.

You shouldn’t have caught any. Pelosi and most Dems are addicted to power, that is why they do nothing. They’re afraid of doing anything that may keep them from what little they have, which is the long definition of the word cowardice.

Personally I think Cori Bush did it best, all things considered. And they took care of that :-(

Pelosi of course is the worst of the worst. But if we're being honest, fk em all. For one thing, they have all taken an oath to defend the US constitution, which includes preserving slavery via incarceration.

AOCs on insta live talking about how hostile her reception was in her caucus after upsetting Crowley and Pelosi owns that. Was terrible politics by someone who seems value the perception of their political skill. All Pelosi had to do was not get in AOCs way and she couldn’t manage that.

AOC is an anti-Semite as is much of the squad. Screw them.

laurenorder.bsky.social•6 days ago

Here we go again. Folks trying to tell Jews what is and isn't anti-Semitic. Instant block 🚫. Take that sht back to threads or another playground.

Just got a fundraising text from Pelosi a few minutes ago. Hell no

AOC is the best communicator right now. Dem leadership needs to forget the consultants and unleash her.

clancyny.bsky.social•7 days ago

AOC on Insta. In passing, she said her party primaried her.

She talked mostly on getting people on your side.
[paraphrase]
You are not going to persuade anyone. You're not going to debate anyone over to your side.

The work is to embrace people and connect people and create community with people.
