Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
Dr. Abdul El Sayed explaining to the Detroit Free Press that he believes military assistance to Ukraine is consistent with international law and therefore qualitatively different from military assistance to Israel and Egypt.
Leon English@leonenglish.bsky.social · 3d agoAnd here he is staring pretty unequivocally that he sees aid to Ukraine as different from aid to Israel (or Egypt), so please update your priors or fuck off with claims to the contrary.

The DSA in Wilmingotn, N.C. has created a "crisis" by putting benches at city bus stops, after literal decades of the city promising and failing to do so.
Democratic Socialists’ bus benches remain, city mum on next steps | Port City Daily
WILMINGTON — The handmade bus benches installed by the Wilmington Democratic Socialists of America have highlighted a problem nearly everyone agrees exists: most Wave bus stops have nowhere for riders...

It's not about one US Senate seat. It's about all of us together. It's about a belief that we can take our government back from the very people who want to monetize us at every turn. The fomentors of inequality. The drivers of war and genocide and apartheid. We get to decide.

Politico@politico.com · 2w agoGretchen Whitmer endorses Haley Stevens for Michigan Senate seat
Get in, there’s a new secret political influence campaign paying people to post. This time, a network targeting people in Michigan. First paid to post about how hard it is to afford groceries and gas, the accounts have gone hard in recent days, supporting Haley Stevens. www.ms.now/news/haley-s...

A dark money campaign is offering influencers $1,500 per post to attack Abdul El-Sayed and support Haley Stevens. Same exact dollar figure that was paid to attack @katmabu.bsky.social (Nobody ever found out who was paying for that campaign.) Gross, lazy and above all cynical shit.

Reporter: Isn’t there concern that this slippery slope to socialism inevitably ends up as full-blown communism? AOC: They want to call everything they don’t like communist because if people actually wake up to the fact that their elected officials are screwing them over when they get here
Senator Tina Smith has been a fighter for working people in the US Senate. I hope to build on her leadership on women's health and reproductive rights and access which has paved the way for the future I want for my daughters and every American. I'm deeply grateful for her support.
centrist democrats love to be like “why has no one invented being annoying and scolding the left online yet”
🔥DR. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “ICE has nothing to do with immigration. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets, weaponizing the idea of immigration against the Constitution. ICE cannot be reformed, retrained… ICE has to be ABOLISHED.” (And held accountable)
AOC: Is the answer to our problems to turn to the same playbook over and over again? A playbook that says, in order to win, Democrats must rely on the same dark money—$50 million and counting—from the same people who backed 35 election deniers to Congress who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

Adam E. Ross 🌹@adammanross.bsky.social · 2w agoHey @katmabu.bsky.social, are you planning on doing any organizing events with @coribush.bsky.social ? Her primary is August 4th and she is up against millions of dollars in AIPAC meddling
AOC: We can’t be in cahoots with the same money that is oppressing us. It’s not naive, Detroit. It’s what we need, and, most importantly, it’s what you deserve.
El-Sayed: They’ve taken to calling me dangerous. If you’re a worker who wants our economy to work for you, I’m not dangerous. If you’re AIPAC and want to send our money abroad, you damn well better believe I’m dangerous.
This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
Julie Gonzales is probably only going to lose to Hickenlooper by 5-7% when all is said and done. That’s incredible performance against an incumbent senator but also very frustrating. She probably could have won this race with a bit more backing and funding!
NEWS: 29-year-old Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros will defeat 15-term incumbent Rep. Diana DeGette in the Democratic primary for CO-01. Kiros, a first-time candidate and former attorney, dominated the Denver assembly and tapped into anti-incumbent sentiment.
Lander on comparisons between his flank of the Democratic Party and the Tea Party: "We're joyful about what it looks like to deliver. That is very different energy than what the Tea Party brought. We want to build something, not just break something."

While the killers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti walk free, the DOJ is busy bringing bogus charges against protesters. The Administration thinks intimidation will make us back down. They keep learning the same lesson: Minnesotans don't scare easily. We organize for our rights ✊🏽
As the government raids “antifa groups” in Minneapolis with the SAME charges levied against myself and the rest of the Broadview Six, we need to be asking how they got this indictment. And as charges (hopefully) get dropped, we must remember the process is the punishment.
Steyer: I have a strong anti-ICE platform. I think they are a criminal organization, and we have a very strong plan when it comes to prosecuting them. You don’t have to trust me. The head of ICE went online to say that my program is unfair to ICE agents, and I took that as a huge compliment.
Absolutely shocking how easy this is.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 2mo agoHere is Tom Steyer personally supporting high school trans athlete AB Hernandez. I don't think I've ever seen a candidate as brave as Tom Steyer in his explicit support for trans folks. It says a lot that it took a self funded billionaire not dependent on donors to do it.
see? is that so hard? is that such a difficult argument to make? this is what I want to see out of Democrats Tom Steyer, you have my vote
