Under John Roberts, American democracy felt humiliating, looked like a joke, and became increasingly tenuous. He basically paved the way for Donald Trump's rise to the presidency. motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

@kenklippenstein Yeah that must be the problem, telling people how they're being manipulated for minority control by concentrated capital through a strategy of intimidation. That was never once addressed by the Harris campaign. x.com/kenklippenstei…

Former Biden spokesperson Jen Psaki criticizes the Harris campaign's fascism emphasis. "It is not a good closing message to reach to the masses of the country. People don't relate to it. It's not understandable. And I think that, I hope, is a lesson."

All of you folks who said Israel has a ‘right to defend itself,’ all of you people who said ‘But Hamas!’ in response to anything and everything, all of you who backed this stuff, this is on you, and the blood of these babies is on your hands. History will not forgive or forget.

“Working class democrat?” “Brethren where he’s from”? Fetterman is from a wealthy suburb, his parents were Republicans, he was a legacy admission to Albright College then went to Harvard. He’s not working class, he just dresses like shit! this is not the same thing

@OsitaNwanevu A reminder that David Plouffe never worked for Biden's campaign like he did for Harris's when he joined in August and then came the Cheneys, crypto, and Mark Cuban along with ignoring Gaza. x.com/OsitaNwanevu/s…

They're all sucking up to Dear Leader because they see the opportunity for even more capital consolidation now. No more Lina Khans to get in the way as the centi-billionaires become trillionaires.
