AES has a pretty strong incentive to play nice with his new peers after November, he’s going to want to notch a bunch of easy Ws in his cap to ensure next time around the margin isn’t so painfully close. Doesn’t mean he’ll change his values but I’m sure last night caused some sweating
Its good actually when Democrats come together after a primary and acknowledge that Republicans are actually the real threat and should be kept out of office at all costs.
Good soldier behavior, we’re gonna need all hands on deck

It goes under discussed mostly because no one knows what the SEC does or finds its role sexy, but Paul Atkins will likely try to completely annihilate the shareholder proposal process sometime next year, completely upending shareholder democracy and ceding unprecedented control to corporations.
Dem Senators who are allowing Collins to.give herself moderate cover are either stupid or evil. I am completely out of patience with this quisling behavior
Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · 3d agoPatty Murray and Chuck Schumer decide to strike a “bipartisan” deal with … checks notes … Susan Collins to fund the Trump regime through December which appears to not to any include any safeguards against Trump’s meddling with midterm elections.
As he often does - @brianbeutler.bsky.social anticipated preemptive cave from Chuck Schumer, Patty Murray, and the Senate Democratic leadership.
Democrats Poised To Fund Trump's Dirty Tricks
They're gaming out responses to Trump's election-subversion schemes, but they seemingly won't withhold their votes for a budget that funds those schemes.

I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

It's rarely ever said so outright but basically the thesis of the Stevens surrogates as of today is that Arab Americans cannot possibly have any legitimate grievances about someone who is openly and proudly supportive of a country that kills their families lol

The absolute bedwetting of r/wisconsin immediately taking the bait on right wing smears of Fran Hong is something I’m not sure how to alleviate but it’s fucking annoying and I wish people took a deep breath before posting.
I fucking hate AI almost as much as I hate the sniveling asshole billionaires and shithole corporations who have all forced it into every conceivable spot in our lives. It literally makes everything worse and it makes us worse and I fucking hate it.

VoteHub@votehub.com · 4d agoNEW — Montana Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Alani Bankhead tells POLITICO that “absolutely nothing” would make her leave the race, barring a “lightning bolt from God” striking her. Polls show a close head-to-head race between independent Seth Bodnar and Republican Kurt Alme.
She’s right. Her saying this is also giving permission to everyone else running to get on board. This is how we enact a durable system that can survive future R administrations. It’s now or never.

Let’s start telling them we’re going to clawback their signing bonuses and they’ll never see a dime of pension money for the careerists that decided to stay. Make them REALLY sweat that they’ll be broke once this is over.
Rob Sheridan@rob-sheridan.com · 5d ago“We’re gonna go through every fucking file” is what I want to hear right now from every Dem candidate. Seed fear into the gestapo. Let them know they don’t just walk away from all this when management changes. Biden historically blew it by “moving on” from Jan6. We can’t make that mistake again.
