Republicans win races by 0.01% and stack their administration with fascist lunatics.
Democrats win races by almost 30% and yet are obsessed with doing this insufferable bipartisan bullshit.
It’s absolutely exhausting.

The Democratic Party needs a new and bold direction. I will not support Chuck Schumer’s reelection as Democratic leader.

Asshole local governments are retaliating against the voters for approving Amendment 3 by threatening to cut important projects.
Cut your damn staff and salaries and cut the waste at the sheriff’s offices.
Myriad examples have been given over the last six months.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
When you cut taxes, you have less money to spend on services. That’s how budgets work. Prop 3 will result in a recurring $12 billion loss for local governments.

Bernie Sanders, an independent who caucuses with Dems, says he won’t be supporting Schumer for leader.
Even if he runs unopposed? asked @lindsemcpherson.
“He’s not going to run unopposed, I don’t think,” Sanders said

It is amazing how dedicated Hakeem Jeffries is to not even attempting to do anything.
It goes beyond not meeting the moment, this dude does not even care to pretend there is a moment to be met.
It's actually insulting.
Hakeem Jeffries is asked if he will follow the lead of Sen Chris Van Hollen and others who’ve demanded the upcoming spending bill end the Iran war or else the government shuts down.
He says: "We're going to end the war in Iran one way or the other, but with respect to the Appropriations Process, right now, that's in the hands of Rosa DeLauro on the House side, and Patty Murray on the Senate side"
Jeffries feeling absolutely no pressure to end this war, clearly very confident he’ll become Speaker regardless.

Pass the PRO Act. Pass the Public Service Freedom to Negotiate Act. PERIOD.
Washington has talked about protecting workers long enough. We’ve got the numbers. Now let’s get shit done.
UNIONIZE EVERYTHING!
Public and local government workers deserve better pay, better benefits, and a damn seat at the table.
And to hell with anyone who disagrees.

woke colonel lockjaw is just an amazing side character to have
Rep-Elect Richard Ojeda (D-NC) WON'T SAY if he supports Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) for Speaker, telling @scrippsnews "ending Citizens' United is my hard line."

I’m off to D.C. with a mandate to win an ambitious working class agenda in the new Democratic majority.

NYC has a moratorium on student facing AI for K through 8th grade.
Google says we are going to force you to break your own rules, you can't have search without AI.
NYC must call Google's bluff, kick out search, and refer the case to the AG and DA for illegal tying and abuse of monopoly power.
The idea that any other Ed Tech company could say "you only get the tool you want if you break your own policies" would be nonsense.
