More proof that the Democrat party is where progressive policy and grassroots energy goes to die.
We need to elect revolutionary leaders like Kshama Sawant, who will remain loyal to the working class and be the opposition we need in congress. The Dem party is a dead end.
I spoke with @cmkshama about her independent challenge to one of the worst but most powerful House Dems, Adam Smith (D-WA); why Seattle has re-elected him for 30 years; the DSA, potential for alliance with right-wing populism and more. She's interesting:

@briebriejoy We have never had a chance to vote on legalization in Texas. This ban doesn't apply to marijuana which has never been legalized in Texas but rather hemp derived products containing THC which had been legalized. It's still subject to ongoing litigation.
@cspan@SenSchumer Like you don’t know it’s me?🤨
I wasn’t a protestor. I was a frustrated journalist. He got a forum about corruption and wouldn’t take questions.
I AM NOT A POTTED PLANT!
It's fortifying to see someone still reacting to the genocide with the anger and outrage that the tragedy deserves.
Respect to @samhusseini, whom I was honored to meet in person at last weekend's @GreenPartyUS meeting.
A federal judge has stated that my rights were violated with the seizure of my phones, and placed the repression I experienced in the wider context of Trump's assault on press freedom
Our case is moving forward thanks to the valiant work of @JeninYounesEsq and @adc
Was amusing to be seated next to Schumer before he spoke.
Public Citizen: We're "thrilled" to have Schumer talk about corruption and won't allow any questions to him.
Schumer: Trump is corrupt.
Me: "What could be more corrupt than backing genocide? ... This is part of the same con with you and Trump playing off of each other: 'Oh, he’s worse', 'oh, he’s worse.' ... amazing that you can show your genocidal face in public ... How dare you talk about corruption?"
Schumer: Trump is corrupt.
My prior comments about @SierraClub apply to @PPFA and for the same reasons
These organizations exist for the sake of existing. Planned Parenthood famously does not support Medicare for All, which would guarantee full reproductive rights for all people. Why? Passing that needed legislation would render them obsolete as an institution, and more to the point would jeopardize their executives’ salaries
Americans really need to watch these giant NGOs closely. They are two faced grifters and do not serve the working class. Stop funding them
Planned Parenthood Action Fund has endorsed my opponent, Democratic Congressmember Adam Smith, who has voted for tens of billions of dollars for the genocide in Gaza and voted to ban United Nations food assistance to Gaza.
It is estimated that women and girls account for 67 percent of the Palestinians killed so far in the genocide.
From the U.N. website: "The United Nations Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls, Reem Alsalem, has said that the scale and nature of the crimes inflicted on Palestinian women and girls by Israeli forces are so extreme that existing concepts in legal and criminal frameworks can no longer adequately describe or capture them.
How is it that Planned Parenthood has endorsed someone who is funding a genocide?
If reading this makes you angry, join us in our campaign to defeat Adam Smith. Help us GET OUT THE VOTE for the August 4th primary election. I am an independent antiwar socialist fighting to end all military aid to Israel, for free healthcare for all funded by taxing the rich, and for national rent control. https://t.co/sh3zyhgTI7

She's lying about doing anything about this, but it's funny to live in a timeline where Kamala Harris is like 'pack the court!' and DSA candidates are saying 'preserve the Senate!'
War crimes fugitive Benjamin Netanyahu is on his way to US
An arrest warrant for him was issued by ICC in November 2024 for a litany of horrific crimes
Today, three ICC member countries—Greece, Italy and France—have permitted him to use their airspace
Rogue, lawless nations
Italy, France, Greece did it again.
Three Rome Statute parties opened their airspace to fugitive Netanyahu, in breach of their obligation to cooperate with the ICC.
I call on competent authorities to investigate possible complicity.
Hey South Texas. Look at the true bosses of:
Vicente Gonzalez (D)
Eric Flores (R)
Henry Cuellar (D)
Monica de la Cruz (R)
While we face a severe water shortage and climate emergency, they and blue maga and red maga waste our tax dollars on wars, and subsidies for the fossil fuel industry.
It's time to follow the path of peace and ecological wisdom. Peace and ecological wisdom is better for the economy, the environment, our communities and our families.
Diplomacy over war. Renewable energy over fossil fuels.
Vote Green Party, Vote Eddie! We have solutions ready to go!
Biden/Harris oversaw a historic jump in food prices, cut food stamps for millions, called it "Bidenomics," and then they and their supporters tried to gaslight us - "YOU'RE NOT STRUGGLING, YOU'RE MAKING IT UP, WHY AREN'T YOU THANKING US FOR FIXING THE ECONOMY, DO YOU LIKE TRUMP?"
Federal agents in Atlanta stopped a guy at the airport, forced him to unlock his phone, and it self-wiped using GrapheneOS's built-in duress feature
The DOJ is now charging him with destroying evidence
La relatora especial de Naciones Unidas para los territorios palestinos ocupados, Francesca Albanese, ratificó su caracterización de las operaciones militares en Gaza como un genocidio e identificó la complicidad de decenas de países y corporaciones globales.
Durante una entrevista con la revista The Nation, la jurista internacional detalló que la sistemática matanza de civiles y las condiciones impuestas a la población desplazada obligan a los Estados miembros de la ONU a suspender el comercio de armas con Israel conforme al derecho internacional

They're openly lying to you -- promising you'll get medicare for all if you vote for Democratic senators who (*checks notes*) don't support Medicare for All, and pretending the obstacle is Senate votes and not top down, structural, party opposition to the policy.
