As a general note, I think one lesson Dems should have learned is that there's nothing to be gained in being slow & methodical. The way to succeed in this media environment is to do *everything at once, all the time*. Always be acting, setting the agenda, dictating the news cycle. Move, move, move.
AOC would make an excellent Speaker of the House. The contrast with mealy-mouthed Mike Johnson would be breathtaking.

House Dems are set to elect leadership on November 18th. If you are unsatisfied with Jeffries and Schumer, make sure to reach out to your reps and let them know!
I genuinely don't think the GOP understands that to everyone under 40 (and to a whole bunch of people over that age), the entire Republican brand is "crooks and creeps"
Can we please give a HUGE shout out to Stacey Abrams? She worked and fought and organized and created the foundation for the important win by Keisha Lance Bottoms to become the first female and first Black governor in Georgia's history, as well as the first Black female governor in the US.
Hey insurgent Dems:

Actually, I take it back...the more Jeffries goes on TV and says this dumb shit, the easier it will be to lead the insurgency to remove him from his leadership position.
I cant stress that I never once heard anything about unity at any door I knocked in the multiple swing districts I canvassed in and all of which turned blue.
This is the official GOP cope thread, add to it at your leisure, we're gonna be smokin pack all week.
Ok so I need y’all to remember that the next part is to bully the shit out of democrats to do their fucking jobs while in office
Yes, it's going to take years to recover from this, but if Democrats want to win in 2028, they MUST make accountability a priority over the next 2 years.
I love your greatest hits as much as anyone, but this interpretation doesn’t fit the situation. The American people want accountability and an end to the politics of cruelty and corruption. For the next two years that means fighting this administration at every turn.
Guys, this has been a hard election, and I know that tensions have been high, and it’s gotten emotional, but let’s just remember that we are all human beings who live in this country together, and a whole bunch of those humans have spent a decade making it very clear that they are fucking Nazis.
Democrat Gina Hinojosa is the next governor of Texas, defeating incumbent Gov. Greg Abbott. It’s a stunning upset by Hinojosa, a state legislator who will become the first Latina to hold the state’s top job. https://bit.ly/4ini5Xh
If you hear one Democrat talking about reaching across the aisle to find common ground with Donald Trump you must bully them until no one remembers their own real name.
too many Democrats don't know what to do with power except pretend they don't have it, squander it. no spineless wobbling. no people working their asses off for wasted victories jello spine dems, GET OUT THE WAY. no more bending the knee and dithering! CONSEQUENCES tick fucking tock
In light of the Democratic Bluenami, I feel compelled to warn my American friends to expect the next two months to be anything but normal as this administration completely loses it’s fucking mind and pulls every trick it can to overturn election results.
The explorer who will not come back or send back his ships to tell his tale is not an explorer, only an adventurer; and his sons are born in exile.
It’s incredibly important to recognize that Democrats running up the score so high they exceeded the margins of fuckery is not a sign of democratic health. It is a time-limited reprieve to secure the government before we lose it. This was the failure of the Biden Era that cannot be repeated.

Kat Kan was a librarian, a writer, and an advocate for graphic novels in many different ways, going back to the days when they weren't considered "real books." She was also an awesome human being, and she has left the world a better place than she found it. RIP.
Do y’all really want to reward Marsha for being a corrupt corporate stooge and hiding from voters? Go vote. 🇺🇸
