Rahm trying to run for president pretending to be a populist while sitting front row with billionaires at one of the most expensive sporting events in American history is truly 🤌

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

It must be incredibly difficult for Sanders to know that he has a serious chance at the nomination, and in this climate, at the White House, but he’s just too old at this point. The cruelty of that recognition must have him wondering if maybe it’s actually possible.

[Robert Costa @costareports]

I've heard privately from some Sen. Sanders allies that they'd like to see him consider a run in '28 even though he is 84, believing his movement, especially in a crowded primary, could win him the nom...

Sanders today on that idea...

It's remarkable to me that Democrats aren't moving more aggressively toward universal health care. We're seeing mass destabilization of labor markets in a country where most health insurance is still tied to one's job. This is going to make the status-quo health care emergency a true catastrophe.

[Timothy Strathman @StrathmanT84]

@ajlamesa Idk if its the other concerns, but did ppl really think Pratt knew how to solve the problems he was bringing up?

[Timothy Strathman @StrathmanT84]

@tedlieu @gsundell Youd think you;d want Dem vs Dem for down ballot races

[Timothy Strathman @StrathmanT84]

@thehill Has he said anything about Randy Fine?

[Eric Michael Garcia @EricMGarcia]

To Hasan’s point, both Hilton and Pratt made more of a case to right-wing media than they did to crossover voters. They did little to create a permission structure for Democrats to back them unlike Schwarzenegger 20 years ago.

[Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine]

John Fetterman seems to genuinely think that the reason no one likes him is because he refuses to wear a suit.

It's not the hoodie, dude. It's because you've become a stooge for AIPAC and the Republican party.

@SalinaEstitties Like a Phoenix, you will rise again

[Democrats Deliver @DemzDeliver]

🚨 Zohran Mamdani announces the launch of 5 city-run grocery stores in NYC.

Experts predict this will significantly increase access to nutritious food in low-income areas.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Think about all the column inches and headlines devoted to Graham Platner over the past week versus Ken Paxton and then tell me again we have a ‘liberal’ media.

[Zaid Jilani @ZaidJilani]

The Democratic Party has been run by incompetents since Obama stepped down in 2016. It needs new blood.

[Timothy Strathman @StrathmanT84]

Overall how I feel... I see ppl trying to push Platner for president and its like whoa, the left has way better less problematic candidates for that

[melissa “cancelled student debt” byrne @mcbyrne]

It says a lot that it’s men being the loudest on Platner.

Would be good if some of the me could be a little more it fucking sucks that a man with a shitty record on women was recruited and the left should recruit better.

And also defeating collins is critical. And defeating neocons is critical.

Surprising comment from Gottheimer I thought he only threatened Arabs

[James Medlock @jdcmedlock]

Ok so let’s make tax rates what they were in 1995.

[Zaid Jilani @ZaidJilani]

It turns out voters are much less superficial than pundits

[Timothy Strathman @StrathmanT84]

@EricMGarcia Power of Zohran

Great Game
