I hate these fascist motherfuckers with every cell in my body and with nearly equal timbre I hate the cowardice of the only people in a position to oppose them who treat it like they were playing crazy 8s over cocktails and watercress sandwiches

FDR once bragged to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that the richest people in the nation hated him and “I welcome their hatred.” Just weeks later, he was re-elected with 61% of the vote in a 523-8 blowout in the Electoral College. Voters *like* politicians who make the right enemies.

Midwestern governor with a one-seat legislative majority: The coward RethugliKKKans may dash themselves on our rocks if they wish, the tide and the seabirds will leave no trace of their remains New York/California Democrat: I’d like to vote against things I oppose but that’s not realistic

in the past month alone, Gillibrand has 1) stood with Trump to criticize congestion pricing 2) defended with serial sexual harasser Andrew Cuomo 3) supported giving Trump and Elon authority to impound funds. she might just be the lowest WAR Dem in the senate

I am so fucking furious at Chuck Fucking Schumer

You couldn't ask for a clearer picture of the fundamental crossroads in the aftermath of Democrats' loss to Trump: Leader Hakeem Jeffries meeting with 150+ Silicon Valley donors vs. Bernie Sanders going on a national tour to talk directly to voters in Biden '20—GOP '24 districts

What one should be doing at this moment is rallying the base and trying to get low-information voters to pay attention. Instead, Schumer is trying to play to Republicans because that's all that Democrats ever do, despite the fact Republicans will never vote for them.

One can only hope 🙏

it’s becoming increasingly clear the goal of the far right is to defund and buy up every source of reliable information until there is no more objective reality to counter them
