NYT reports that WFP, MoveOn and Indivisible are behind Van Hollen and threatening to primary any Senate Dems up for reelection next year who continue backing Schumer: nytimes.com/2026/11/12/us/po…

"Chuck and I grew up, literally, in the same [Brooklyn] neighborhood. I am older than Chuck, but we went to the same elementary school, the same high school. We were on the Banking Committee together when I was first elected to Congress. So I have known Chuck for a long time, and I like Chuck, personally. He’s a very nice guy. But, I think, in this moment in American history, Chuck’s views are way out of touch with where the American people are at—and especially with where [the base of] the Democratic Party is. On issue after issue, I think he is just not in tune with where his constituents are at." thenation.com/article/politi…
lots of the negative reaction to this is right wing trolls/bots but there are also a good number of people on the left who seem to disagree, or more often just not be aware that being pro independence is the standard socialist position, and also DSA's position!
that isn't to say resos encouraging AOC to run are purposeless, we can definitely (at least somewhat) change the environment and chances so runs, but complaining about her not making a decision yet is odd to me

if you agree with this take you should join DSA, which opposes colonialism and is building a mass socialist party: act.dsausa.org/s/5309.4g7jch

"When we unite each star of class struggle through a mass party of the working class, we build the constellation necessary to defeat capitalism in the heart of empire."

Regardless of your opinion on Gunn and the DCU, I can't imagine how anyone could view the Ellison's installing a corporate stooge as a win.
James Gunn and Peter Safran will no longer run DC Studios.
Jeremy Latcham, who previously served as a producer at Marvel Studios, is taking over DC.

I feel like people are reading this as Zohran wanting a union leader to run, when more likely it's about getting them to back a pro labor candidate with experience in political office. union leader sounds good but has low name recognition, would be harder to build a campaign.
Axios: Mamdani's bid for 2028 kingmaker
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani can't be president, so he's trying to be the next best thing: a progressive kingmaker for 2028.
Mamdani has been meeting privately with union leaders, urgently talking up the need for a labor-aligned or leftist candidate to run for the White House, four people familiar with the talks told Axios.

Sounds like someone is following Resolution 33
Scoop: Zohran Mamdani has been meeting privately with union leaders, urgently talking up the need for a labor-aligned or leftist candidate to run for president, people familiar with the talks tell me.
He's arguing that progressives can't afford to squander their midterm momentum.
Behind closed doors, Mamdani has also said he's uncertain whether AOC will launch a White House run, the sources said.
