some people call Bill Clinton the first black president, then by that logic Trump is the first gay president

@PaFromMike the trials will be held in Nuremberg, PA ⚖️🗽

[Riley Grace Roshong @RileyGRoshong]

Whoever campaigns on Nuremberg Trials for the current administration gets my vote for president in 2028

[Sam @SaltmanSam]

The odds of winning a democratic majority in the Senate are significantly higher if @AbdulElSayed wins the Senate race in Michigan. If you want to hold Trump, MAGA, and the Republicans to account for their corruption help @DigitalGroundG canvass for Dems

[Digital Ground Game @DigitalGroundG]

@TheOmniLiberal will be canvassing this weekend in Michigan for @AbdulElSayed.

@Mike_from_PA will be tweeting from his couch.

Seems like Destiny wants AES to win more than Mike does, but what would I know?

In response to Hasan Piker's recent comments on Jews in America being targeted because of their views on Israel:

This shouldn’t be hard: no community should face the threat violence for their political views. Period. That goes if you’re pro-Israel, pro-Palestine, pro-choice, pro-life or any other cause you care about. And blaming the victims of violence for bringing it on themselves only further endangers people.

In a time where political violence and anti-semitism has been spiking— and where just 6 months ago Michigan had a nearly deadly event of anti-semitic mass violence at Temple Israel — no one should causally be suggesting that anyone, Jews or otherwise, are to blame for being targeted.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Hasan Piker’s dangerous and hateful language targeting Jewish Americans has no place in our civic discourse. Suggesting that Jewish Americans bear responsibility for hatred or violence directed against them is wrong, dangerous, and antisemitic.

We can, and should, argue fiercely over policy. We should have meaningful dialogue and debate about the policies and actions of the Israeli government and American foreign policy. That is the lifeblood of democracy. But that’s not what this is.

No American should be told that their political beliefs make them responsible for hatred or violence directed against them. There is a bright line between vigorous debate and rhetoric that stokes hatred toward our neighbors. Mr. Piker has crossed that line, repeatedly and unmistakably.

Republicans held this seat for OVER 30 YEARS. That's what they call the Digital Ground Game difference 😉

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 98.5%.

[Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias]

One thing I don't want us to lose sight of is that beyond any vetting concerns and before scandals started to hurt his numbers, the *shape* of Platner's electoral support showed no sign of a strong performance with non-college voters.

We are not late to the conversation. We were waiting until we could confirm that our volunteers who attended the College Democrats Summit @CollegeDems were safe.

Digital Ground Game has come a long way in a short time, and we’re still learning how to navigate political spaces. From day one, our mission has been to meet young people where they are, encourage civic participation, and stand unapologetically for liberal democracy. We love this country not because it’s perfect, but because it’s worth improving. Our organization includes people of different races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, economic backgrounds, cultures, and political perspectives. What unites us is a shared commitment to democracy and to one another.

Yesterday, our concerns about the normalization of authoritarianism became very real. Young volunteers from Digital Ground Game attended what they expected to be an opportunity to engage with fellow Democrats. Instead, some were met with harassment, hostility, and an environment that no young person should have to navigate simply for participating in politics.

Many of our organizers first became politically engaged through online creators before turning that energy into real-world organizing. We never imagined we’d have to prepare young volunteers for intimidation at political events meant to welcome them.

Seeing one of the largest liberal voices @TheOmniLiberal denied entry, our volunteers being asked to leave, and others deciding to leave on their own to avoid further harassment was deeply disappointing. The smears that followed only made things worse. This level of polarization is not coming from Digital Ground Game, our partners, or the communities we work alongside.

People who glorify political violence or openly admire authoritarian movements should not be shaping spaces meant to encourage democratic participation. Wearing the imagery of dictators responsible for mass suffering is not harmless symbolism. College Democratic organizations should be places where young people can freely exchange ideas, not where intimidation and ideological bullying become normalized.

Freedom of speech and open debate are essential democratic values. But young people should never feel threatened, harassed, or pressured out of participating in political life.

We know other organizations are also checking in with their volunteers after these events, helping them process harassment both online and in person. That alone should concern everyone. If we want the next generation to participate in democracy, we have a responsibility to make political spaces safe, welcoming, and respectful.

Despite everything, we remain hopeful. The response from many journalists, public figures, community leaders, and everyday Americans has reminded us that the fight for democracy is far from over.

We encourage anyone who believes these events fell short of the values Democrats stand for to seek accountability and work toward better standards going forward.

And to every young volunteer who showed up in good faith: thank you. We’re sorry that participating in democracy came with harassment instead of encouragement. We hope you’ll keep showing up anyway. Our democracy needs you more than ever.

Digital Ground Game

[Jeff Maurer @JeffMightBWrong]

I’m baffled by people who still don’t realize that normie Democrats winning the factional fight against the far left is a necessary condition for beating MAGA.

[Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias]

It’s actually not some kind of giant mystery which Democrats have above-average appeal to working class voters — they’re not socialists or weird edgelords they’re just somewhat more moderate on cultural and energy issues.
