It’s hard to find myself here again. This site has gotten worse, but many of you still feel like friends. Despite the trolls, I want to share this about my mother, who passed away. Her life as a working-class immigrant mother tells an American story that feels unimaginable now.

Despite my better judgment (the risk of being harassed by trolls) many people on this app feel like friends, so I wanted to share this post about my late father who passed away last week. His life epitomized the American Dream—a dream that often seems elusive today. 🧵

That's the goal

[Representative Ryan Gonzalez @RyanGonzalezCO]

Weiser is going to make Polis look like a moderate.

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

Going to be?

Fam, he has been. Hoping he finds his morals again.

[Rashida Tlaib superfan @LeftyTaurus89]

Manny Rutinel is going to be so disappointing

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

finally finishes a pile of tasks

Me: Wow, that was a lot. I should slow down and take it easy for a while.

Also me: instantly signs up for 10 more projects

Meanwhile, the DSA congressional delegation:

Shout out to my libertarian homies

[Jeff Hunt @jeffhunt]

Another election handed to Democrats because of the libertarians.

Very apt because Diwali celebrates the triumph of light over darkness

What a great year to celebrate!

[Dr. Abdul El-Sayed @AbdulElSayed]

Happy Diwali to all who celebrate the Festival of Light🪔🎇

Centrism did not win the Democratic party the election

Back from August:

Francesca Hong should definitely run for Ron Johnson's seat in 2028. She would flip it and join the Bernie/Abdul El-Sayed wing of the Senate.

Announce soon! Run Hong Run!

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

Francesca Hong should consider running for U.S. Senate in 2028 against Ron Johnson, or for the open seat if he retires.

This was very much a local race with minimal national involvement. A Senate run would draw her a lot more of the attention and help she'd need.

[BlackRedGuard ☭ 🇵🇸🔻⛓️‍💥 @OGBlackRedGuard]

as a Black DSA member and chair of our national commission for advancing the interests of nonwhite people in the organization — you’re next

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

Now that Chris Kennedy helped create and lead the campaign that passed the graduated income tax, and Javier Mabrey is Majority Leader, I thought I'd bring back this banger.

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

@CD7watermelon Lololol l obviously I'm upset about that.

But look at the log scale...

It should show how much money they used against Abdul and failed. This makes it look very very small when it fact it's insane.

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

Using a log scale for this is political malpractice

Or infographic malpractice

[Popstonox @Popstonox]

The Israel lobby spent $101.2 million against candidates supported by Hasan Piker in the 2026 midterm election

$79.3 million was spent against 9 candidates that won

It's high risk, high reward.

The first sitting member of Congress to break with Hakeem and back someone else will get huge media attention and credit from the base for being brave.

Hakeem might blacklist them if he wins, but they could win anything else in their state after.

[Andrew Solender @AndrewSolender]

These numbers are going up, by the way: A Democratic House staffer told me their office got nearly 800 calls about Jeffries on Friday alone.

Most of the staffers I'm talking to describe this as the most call volume they've ever experienced. https://t.co/eKtNKwFPPN

[Peter Daou @peterdaou]

Yes, Democrats are choosing leaders with LOWER favorability than Trump:

🔴 DONALD TRUMP = 38.5
🔵 HAKEEM JEFFRIES = 28.0
🔵 CHUCK SCHUMER = 24.7

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

If this is the "moderate" policies that won on Tuesday, then slap my ass and call me Ezra.

[Dallas Texas TV @DallasTexasTV]

Gina Hinojosa says she'll declare a cost of living emergency on day one and freeze electricity rates

@natemaklocklin @NateForUtah Nate on nate crime

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

U.S. Senate in Utah 2028 should be in play. Democrats are only a few thousand votes behind Republicans statewide across all seats

In particular, @NateForUtah should go for it.

Mike Lee has a horrible record & reputation. A Talarico and Angie Nixon style race there could do it.
