Yep.
Massive electoral overpeformers like James Talarico ran as far away from Bernie’s message as possible — lambasting a rigged economic system that makes it impossible for working people to get by, calling out the greed of billionaires and advocating raising their taxes, focusing on a top-versus-bottom vs. left-versus-right division, raising the minimum wage, getting big money out of politics…
HEY WAIT A MINUTE
Democrats fail to call for a recorded vote and GOP passes its bill that cuts veteran disability benefits and forces veterans to pay more to use VA home loan benefits … on Veterans Day
This is the type of thing that would ideally be paid attention to and handled by party leadership. In this case, that would be Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Whip Katherine Clark.
This is less than 24 hours after they failed to whip members on a vote to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, which failed by a 210-204 vote margin with 11 absent Dem members.
Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. https://t.co/LIrSavsJ01
🚨 Palantir CEO Alex Karp Warns a Wealth Tax is a Trojan Horse For Mass Surveillance
“To enforce a wealth tax, you're going to need surveillance because I'm going to need to know what the bench in your house in New Orleans is worth … AI could impute every single thing you own.”
this analogy is funny because sports are littered with coaches who should have been fired but got one more contract because of a deep playoff run that happened in spite of them
Here’s @ryangrim pointing out some of the Dems who missed the Hegseth vote were coincidentally at a “new member reception” for a group that served as a pass-through for AIPAC money
(Then claimed “stuck in traffic”🤔)
Pete Hegseth wants to turn an execution into a public spectacle for Americans and the world to watch.
He dishonors both our nation and the position he holds. He is beyond unfit to lead the brave men and women of our Armed Forces.
He must go.
Sure, house Dems will have 259 seats in January instead of current 213. And Hegseth impeachment can be reintroduced. But Hakeem having 11 Dem absences today on Hegseth (thus losing vote) reveals a Hakeem leadership problem. Embarrassing.
