@IStandWKamala@imjenell I support the proposals on court reform, whoever is promoting this, but Pete was consistently talking about this, including a very detailed plan on the Supreme Court proposals by legal scholars, before anyone running in in 2020. Good to see Kamala & others now agree with Pete.
@MarkWhiteIA@ajlamesa He inherited the disaster of all
the problems that occurred post Covid, which he dealt with while implementing the largest Infrastructure Investment in decades, fought & won consumer protections, & a solid safety record by all accounts. His tenure was 100x better than Duffy.
@KatrinaWTE@daveweigel David obviously has serious psychological issues, which he should have checked out by a doctor. It’s astounding hoe much time he’s on television (mostly MSNOW) to talk about elections and politics in general. There are hundreds of reporters who are so much better than he is.
@LGBTQPete Yep. The VP debate confirmed my feeling that Walz was the wrong (too cautious, too calculated) running mate. I think Pete would’ve helped in all swing states, even if a couple of those states were lost. In her book she basically confirmed she wanted Pete… but “the gay” thing.
When Trump said “I’m not going to start a war,” many Americans believed that promise - and voted for him.
When he said his Iran war would be over in a few weeks, many believed that too.
Americans today are fed up with the cost of this war - and the lies.
@SeitterSimora@daveweigel Exactly, it’s just that David is weirdly focused on Pete & has been since 2020 (remember the bizarre photo he posted about Pete during the campaign?).
And I don’t know what his point here is, as Pete polls better than almost anyone w/ Black Ds, besides Harris & maybe Newsom.
@daveweigel David, we get that you’r obsessed with Pete but Biden is not running in the next election, Clyburn knows Pete is a solid (non socialist) candidate who’s polling better among all racial groups than most of the candidates you seem to want to see win. It ain’t 2020,get a new hobby.
@PeteButtigieg has been right about this issue, and had not shied away from discussing the idea of it since he ran for president, and essentially nobody else running for president. I’m glad to see others are now willing to support this idea but he’s been touting this for years.
Buttigieg: Under the laws of this country and the constitution, we could have a Supreme Court that better reflects the expectations of the American people and that is more legitimate. We'd be better off with a court that has 13 justices that would match the number of districts that we have in the federal system

Thank you @PeteButtigieg for lifting up red state candidates on the ground and on TV! You are right @DeniseForNE will flip NE2 in Omaha! Like you, we believe there is no permanently red state and we've been working for years to rebuild the party! https://t.co/Q1nvlL0XT7
Don't let anyone tell us we can't have nice things - like good roads, schools, and health care - as if the world's richest nation couldn't possibly afford it.
@nerdypursuit There are so many appearances.
To avoid repetition, I’ll go with one speech that isn’t too well known but should be. The one on foreign affairs (I think given in Indiana) stands out, mostly due to it being rare for any candidates in the ‘20 primary campaign & very substantive.
Candidates/surrogates treating women like this is exactly why Sanders lost twice. El Sayed needs middle aged women voters to win. They will only be persuaded - not berated - into voting for him.
Democrats who align themselves with this misogynistic lunatic do so at their peril.
“I am furious, but I am sailing…” is not only a powerful and (unintentionally?) funny phrase.
It should be a motto for Democrats, all antifascist, & anti MAGA patriots to use as inspiration to get through the summer into the midterms.
Thank you, Patti LuPone 🏳️🌈❤️
