@jbouie Thiel: Gandalf is a mystic and Sauron had some good ideas. Gandalf: The rule of no realm is mine. But all worthy things that are in peril are my care. And I shall not fail my task if anything passes through this night that can still grow fair or flower again in days to come.

What do you want Democrats to do? There's nothing they can do. It's very important you continue to vote for them and give them money.

On Feb 18, the NYT broke the news Trump was sending a war armada to Iran. Jeffries did not issue a formal statement about Iran until Feb 26, 8 days later (which was entirely process criticism), then proceeded to schedule a war powers vote for the week AFTER the bombing started.
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias

One problem for Democrats is that left-wing people pretend they aren’t doing stuff that they are in fact doing in order to further fuel the flames of anti-establishment sentiment.

Hi, my name is Wrong Mcidiotface, and I’m a consultant for the Democratic Party. I used to work at a right-wing thinktank and I just wrote a book. I’m here on CNN to attack a progressive and say that genocide is good and Dems are too far left

thank you to the 3-4 brave democrat senators issuing statements like “this is not normal” from their large suburban backyards while they are on vacation for seemingly the entire year

Jeffries could have put the War Powers Resolution on the floor before recess. He and Meeks chose not to. Sorry I’m not impressed that he tweeted condemnation of Trump’s profane Easter genocidal mania. Actual bare minimum.

a man whose early political career was bankrolled by Wall St, Republican charter school backers in Arkansas & pro-Israel money. it’s clear he has no idea who he is or why he’s even in politics, a cliche machine whose only discernible skill is talking for hours and saying nothing

Classic centrist thing is to spend two weeks shrieking about something and then the instant it’s clear you’re losing the issue, say “why the FUCK are we talking about this thing?”
Sarah Longwell@SarahLongwell25

This is a good take.

im not the one who claimed to be a kingmaker. i said the opposite!! yall have spent the last 2 weeks of trumps violent & expensive iran war complaining about me! i’m just a megaphone for voters who want change. they want antiwar/anti ice dems who’ll cut off israel & fight for m4a
Neera Tanden🌻@neeratanden

I missed how every Dem leader went on Hasan Piker's show to make this happen. Just like there are very few Dems on Joe Rogan and Trump is still dropping with young people. The truth is no podcaster controls whole blocks of voters. This debate has become divorced from reality.

Neocons then: Kamala Harris went full neocon, we’ve successfully taken over the Democratic Party!! Neocons now: Kamala Harris lost because she was a woke radical leftist and we can’t listen to the woke radical left ever again!!
Egotistical Elephant@GenericName37

@DropSiteNews Sarah Longwell and the Bulwark Neocons were celebrating infiltrating and taking over the Democratic party a week before the 2024 election. Pursuing their approval is what caused Kamala Harris to lose.

@natashakorecki lol. What a waste of ink. How have you not realized that it’s a brand new political landscape? Nobody wants this. More $$ for Isr@el and for Ice are radical positions. And you can’t astroturf this bs any more. At least 75% of Dems support abolishing ICE and ceasing $$ to Isr@el.

NEW: Sen. Ruben Gallego mulls a presidential race. He tells me after winning AZ in 2024: "We have to look at it." Supports U.S. $$ to Israel for defense: "I’ve seen civilians get hurt in war by both sides.” Opposes push to abolish ICE: "ridiculous." nbcnews.com/politics/2028-…

Austin Dyches for Congress
Hi, welcome to the new Democratic Party. We're not voting for @GavinNewsom, ever. Please understand when I say we are now holding you Centrists hostage. If you nominate this soulless silverspoon failson, you will lose the election becuase we will not vote for him. You can nominate someone the people want, or you can lose. We know you'll choose the latter so we will prepare accordingly, we suggest you do the same.

Leftist streamer Hasan Piker said he intends to vote third-party if Gavin Newsom becomes the 2028 Democratic nominee. Follow: @AFpost

The American voting public are going to stand on rooftops screaming at the top of their lungs for the next 3 fucking years that they won't vote for a Zionist, Dems will anoint a Zionist anyway, ppl won't vote for that candidate, and the Dems will blame the people for their loss.

It’s shocking how openly and repeatedly the Western media tells you that they simply don’t consider brown people to be human. Among the first casualties of this war were 160 Iranian schoolchildren, but it takes a lost US pilot to bring a human dimension to the slaughter?
Hamza Yusuf@Hamza_a96

“It brings a human dimension to the war…” says Sky News’ military analyst about a missing American pilot from an F-15 jet. Has Sky News ever raised that same human dimension about the US and Israel’s carpet bombing of Gaza, Lebanon and Iran?

Biggest terrorists in the world. They’re using the Iran War as cover for their invasion of Lebanon. Our troops are used as distraction. American media has zero criticism of the new ethnic cleansing they’re doing in southern Lebanon. It’s insane that we’re funding the terrorists.
sarah@sahouraxo

BREAKING. Israel is blowing up entire civilian homes in Naqoura, South Lebanon right now. Civilian homes. No military target. No justification. Just pure terror and destruction. This is a war crime in broad daylight. And the world watches in silence.
