Americans are mad at me on Twitter because I said being an American Leftist was an oxymoron lmao

California DSA delegates, representing chapters from across the state, overwhelmingly voted to endorse California’s Prop 50, the Election Rigging Response Act. You can read our full statement here: www.californiadsa.org/resolutions/...

Nadler is old, but at 78 he isn't even the 10th oldest Dem in the house! He's #19 The oldest five Dems in Congress, Maxine Waters, Steny Hoyer, Nancy Pelosi, Jim Clyburn, and Danny Davis are all running for re-election except Davis, who is the youngest of the bunch at only 83

NEWS: Democratic Rep. Jerrold Nadler, 78, will not seek re-election

There should be a Labor Day every week tbh

Anyways CA DSA's official statement is out so: www.californiadsa.org/resolutions/...

I voted for the measure to endorse Prop 50 and I think it ultimately comes down to a political difference in outlook. For me, fighting fascism, even if that could technically help Democrats, and solidifying DSA as a leader in the anti-fascist coalition rather than just a spectator, is most important

not to be a sectarian but certain caucuses opposing Cali DSA supporting reciprocal gerrymandering are really proving yet again they are not serious about power

I am proud to have supported Nithya in 2020 and 2024 and I will be proud to support her re-election in 2028

Councilmember Nithya Raman@cd4losangeles.bsky.social · 12mo ago

Why is the rent so damn high in LA? Simple economics: the demand for housing is extremely high and our housing supply is extremely low.

My friend Mattie wrote this excellent piece for California DSA about how @dsa.la has fought back against the fascist incursion into our city This part in the end has stuck with me. Only socialism can truly beat fascism Article link: www.californiadsa.org/news/dsa-la-...

Personally, I'm really excited for these two resolutions to be implemented

this is impressive because it not only misunderstands the dynamics of the race but it also gets the definition of “bread and circuses” wrong *twice*

The state party’s rules committee heard scores of challenges to historic endorsement that drew national attention.

Just a reminder that no matter what he does with redistricting (which I'm supportive of, fuck the Republican Party), it still is and will ALWAYS be fuck Gavin Newsom That man will never be President and has done truly horrible things just to get 10% in Iowa

One would expect anyone that close to Eric Adams to be more skilled at the art of bribery

I love this creativity and technology. A solar powered train. I’d love to have that here in the United States. A great step forward for Australia.

It has underfunded our state while exacerbating our housing crisis and wealth inequality! It has also become very much a third rail that most politicians are unwilling to touch despite its increasing unpopularity and the increasing severity of its consequences. Just amazing, masterful stuff

furious not that yglesias is so stupid but that he's paid so much money to be stupid. I could be stupid for money. I could be so stupid

Wish those Democrats would support a 4 day work week for the general populace!!

Jake Grumbach@jakemgrumbach.bsky.social · 12mo ago

Talking to some congressional insiders, it does sound like Democratic electeds, especially Senate, are incredibly opposed to working not only on weekends, but on Fridays. A massive energy disconnect between the base and electeds, and sad to see during authoritarian consolidation

Senators AOC and Sarahana Shrestha by 2030 please

Because he sucks and isn't even in the top 5 of best choices for either a 2028 Dem presidential candidate OR president (these are different but interconnected choices)

Mollie Katzen@molliekatzen.bsky.social · 12mo ago

Why does everyone praising Newsom feel the need to add that that they don't especially like him? There's a freaking rapist in the WH and fascism is taking root. We need someone with cajones, smarts, and the willingness to harness power. It's not a popularity contest, people.

DSA is larger*, more militant, and more powerful than we've ever been and the increasing coverage of our weird internal workings by mainstream press reflects that That said, we are far more marginal than we need to be if we want a left-labor president in 2028

Sir, I oversaw housing at the end of my term as Dep Sec for NYS under Cuomo. I assure you Jeffries negating policies that have helped many New Yorkers stay in NYC then expect us not to critique one he’s benefited from isn’t bs. Nor is it bs to reveal why he’s doing it - to help my predator.

Gavin Schmidt@climateofgavin.bsky.social · 12mo ago

Bullshit begets bullshit. And then all you're left with is vibes and a vibe-based democracy is (as we are witnessing) a disaster. There are lots of susbstantive to criticise Jefferies - why not stick to those, instead of adding more BS into the mix?
