AOC isn't going to hire some DC lifer and it's a mistake to think she'll be too conciliatory. Rather, putting herself in a position to get a range of endorsements from across the Dem coalition will leave her in a good spot. Combined with an issue focused campaign, she has a shot.

I’ve heard a lot of anger from folks connected to the campaign over this podcast but this from a Harris aide might take the cake: “The rare cases where they speak in public shows how insular and controlling these people are, because you can see how fucking thin what they’re…

I get we should focus on the actions of the US gov but Russia just shot an ICBM directly into a city. I'll never really get why folks on the left treat Palestine and Ukraine so differently. The politics of each conflict don't neatly line up, but solidarity should be universal.

This is probably one of the weirdest things I've ever heard about organizing. It's just not true. In fact, the opposite is usually true!

Shit like this is so fucking dumb. These groups represent minorities of the party's base. Most democrats are just normies. Most folks who voted Democrat do so not out of loyalty to the party, but because for like president, it's an easy choice to make if you care about anything.

The left is so cooked if people like this continue to take up space to prattle off this petty nonsense. Trump is planning all this shit and they still want to settle personal scores for their own vanity and clout.

With all due respect... I can't count the amount of times I've heard No from the Democrats. And honestly I have critiques of everything we all should and if our organizations named in this article had the power this claims, then different ppl woulda been President in 2020.

this stuff is gonna drive me insane -Harris' campaign was mostly quite successful (+2-3 pts in swing states) -Harris' paid media that won those gains was like 90 percent progressive economics messaging, with a particular focus on price controls

A very reductive, dishonest way of looking at politics, where everyone can be neatly graphed onto a single left-to-right spectrum. And of course, the more right you go, the more votes you win! The average voter supports progressive populist economic ideas that donors oppose!

VIDEO THREAD: In an act of civil disobedience, pro-Palestine protesters demanding an arms embargo against Israel blocked an entrance to the White House and zip-tied a banner on it even as Secret Service issued warnings tonight. "We have to stop this genocide," said @kai_newkirk

As Biden’s 30 day deadline for Israel to stop violating our laws in Gaza expires, we are sitting in and peacefully blocking the gate at the White House. US law requires an arms embargo. As Democrats for Human Rights, we call upon Biden to uphold the law: Arms Embargo Now!

Using A.I. & natural language processing in an upcoming paper, my co-authors and I analyzed more than 130,000 earnings calls of publicly listed U.S. companies & found that businesses can coordinate price hikes around cost shocks. 4/ scholarworks.umass.edu/entities/publi…

Unemployment weakens governments. Inflation kills. The politically destructive power of inflation had been forgotten. Standard policy tools left us unprepared and fueled inequality. The re-election of Trump should serve as a warning to all democrats. My first @nytopinion 1/

Biden admin could take public legal positions on Israeli actions, including linked to restrictions on US military support. Also filings to ICC or ICJ. Or a UNSC resolution. Trump could seek to undue any unilateral executive action, but there would be friction involved.

If you remained silent about ending the genocide in Gaza because you were afraid speaking out would hurt Kamala in the election, the election is over. Don’t be on the wrong side of history. Get off the sidelines and join the fight to stop the genocide. inthesetimes.com/article/electi…

Netanyahu: We see eye to eye on the Iranian threat in all its components, and the danger it poses. We also see the great opportunities that Israel faces, in the field of peace and its expansion, and in other areas.

The thing that squares the circle with this kind of stuff is politics. I think that all things considered Biden did a pretty good job with the economy but instead of playing politics and figuring out ways to sell it, he seemed to just get mad folks didn't give him credit.

The GOP human trafficked people to help their electoral efforts. And of course the DOJ did nothing.

Vulnerable Pat Ryan, who’s fresh off his third competitive election win in a row, touts that he campaigned with AOC + attacked big corporations, while combining that with criticism of Biden on the border. A POV Dems may want to pay attention to, given Ryan outperformed Harris

Never underestimate how lying is a super power in politics.
