"The American people don't want us to get even; they want us to get things done on their behalf." House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is now poised to become the next House Speaker, says that Democrats will focus on affordability concerns and not retribution after their midterm wins.

We need a fighter, not a coward. We need change, not the status quo. We need a REAL Senate Majority Leader: not Chuck Schumer. 50501 is calling on the Senate to reject Chuck Schumer’s bid and elect a new Senate Majority Leader instead.

Never ever ever forget that the moment they thought it was safe, they revealed fascist fever dreams of unbelievable cruelty

Just want to say this out loud: the Democrats who bus-tossed trans people gained nothing and rode the same exact anti-corruption / affordability wave everyone else did, including Democrats who stood their ground on civil rights. There is NO EXCUSE for caving into bigotry against trans people.

bzzzt! wrong! we want nuremberg 2.0

Tonight, the American people sent a clear message — they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face.

Honestly the best possible news tonight would be Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries getting kicked out on their asses. The color change isn't enough. The democrats need to become the party of actually fucking doing something.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti can't vote, but you can.

Sergey Brin is worth $284 billion. After the proposed one-time 5% wealth tax, he would have roughly $270 billion. If, after that loss, he spent $1 million every single day and never earned another cent, he would run out of money in the year 2766. Billionaires are an obscenity.

California’s proposed billionaire tax was polling at 52% approval back in May. Tech oligarchs have spent at least $148 million to fight it. Now it polls at 42%.

for the American voters: IGNORE THE POLLS! this is literally what we did in Brazil! it doesn't matter if your party is ahead or behind, GO VOTE! some people give up on voting because they're sure they'll win or lose and their vote doesn't matter AND THAT'S WHEN YOU LOSE! WAKE UP EARLY AND VOTE!

Americans, please vote. The midterms matter as much as presidential elections. There are plenty of voter guides to help explain what’s on your ballot, and you can leave parts of it blank if you need to. Democracy is not guaranteed. Vote to protect it and end this incompetent fascist nightmare.
