What moderates organizing looks like
Ethan Wolf 🇺🇸@ethanmwolf
Moderates need to out-organize and fight back on the ground and online against the DSA. We cannot win important races when the DSA has the loudest microphone in the party. If you want to build the best alternative to Trump, now's the time to get going.

Quick, how many bills designed to better my life has AOC passed? Bernie?
David Hogg 🟧@davidhogg111
Contrary to what the establishment wants you to think, things don't have to suck and you do not have to accept it.
English
@FilmThePoliceLA So racist to say the man has no rizz 😏
English
Or maybe it’s the fact that Hakeem fucking sucks?
Longtime Black Man Here@groove_sdc
Folks are not paying attention to how these folks feel about Black politicians they can’t control or that aren’t submissive and subservient to them.
English
@MorePerfectUS And somehow we’re supposed to be afraid of socialism taking our money away when capitalism is already right here doing it hand over fist.

The richest 1% now have as much wealth as the bottom 90% of America combined.

i dont want to be in the same party as these people tbh

Hasan Piker calls out Ritchie Torres after nine of his endorsed candidates win in New York primaries "Ritchie Torres I know you won tonight. I'll see you in two years, motherfucker. I'm coming for you, Richie. Sit on that fuckin seat for the next two years. I hope you remember that. Every day, every time there's a decision that you can make where you are pro-Israel, I hope you remember. You better act right, Ritchie."

Republicans are given infinite “That GOP Congressman does not represent the GOP in Congress”, “The President doesn’t mean what he tweeted” grace but Democrats have to answer for anything someone with 43 followers and a Mao avi tweeted in 2021
English
@MarkSZaidEsq Why is the Right allowed an infinite runway to move further right and embrace fascism, while the Left is expected to be constrained within this narrow paradigm of tepid and uninspiring moderation? It’s a self-defeating double standard.
English
We are witnessing MAGA equivalent of destruction of Democratic Party through election of progressive Socialists.
If you think this ends well for country, I believe you're sadly mistaken. Extremism on one side simply fuels opposite growth on other side.
We need moderates.

Mamdani-backed ultra-progressive Bruce Lander just ousted the two-term Dan Goldman in NY House 10. And it took no time to tell CNN that maybe there is no place in the new Democratic party for @JohnFetterman
English
@bethanyshondark @SohrabAhmari Once the number of genocide-opposing kapos outnumbers the non-kapos, do the roles switch and you become a kapo?
English
How do people who say stuff like this process the fact that the Mamdani sweep was often spearheaded by young Jewish staffers — and supported by many young Jews at the rank-and-file level?
English
@donnabrazile The level of entitlement is crazy. So the old guard knows what the communities want better than the communities themselves who voted for change? What you’re disagreeing with is the will of the voters.
English
@shannonrwatts Believe it or not, but leftists who believe in universal human rights without exceptions when it comes to Palestinians are also the ones who are willing to fight for those things you just mentioned. It’s not some “either/or” situation. Sorry every policy wasn’t in the chant.
English
As a liberal progressive, I would be fine with the party moving left if these wins were about Medicare for all, reproductive rights, universal childcare, taxing billionaires, and creating affordable housing, But they weren’t.

This is exactly the kind of red-baiting, patriotism-policing politics that has left Democrats weak, defensive, and out of touch.
There is nothing “anti-American” about fighting for housing, health care, labor rights, immigrant communities, an end to endless war, and a democracy not auctioned off to billionaires and super PACs. That is not bigotry. That is the moral center of any party serious about governing for working people.
The real danger to Democrats is not DSA. It is a consultant-class obsession with punching left while offering voters managed decline, donor-approved caution, and lectures about “centrism” from people who cannot explain why so many Americans feel abandoned by both parties.
America is not just a nation of centrists. America is a nation of workers, renters, students, caregivers, immigrants, organizers, and communities demanding a government that actually serves them. Progressives are not defining the Democratic Party by hating America. They are challenging a failed establishment because they believe America can be better than austerity, militarism, and corporate capture.
If Democrats reject the left, they are not defending democracy. They are choosing stagnation over the multiracial working-class coalition that can actually defeat the right.
Jamie Metzl@JamieMetzl
The Democratic Party will be far better served by an aggressive internal struggle against anti-American DSA bigots like Darializa Avila Chevalier than by allowing this vile brand of anti-American bigotry to define our party. America remains a nation of centrists who love our country, our democracy, and our shared values. The Democratic Party must reject the DSA. If we don’t, the American people will justifiably reject us.

@redhotnerd NYC may not be the rest of the country, but dissatisfaction with Dem establishment is country-wide.
English
I never really talk much about nyc politics, because it’s always been a bit nuts. Even when I lived there it was a bit nuts. But I will say this: NYC is not the rest of America. Be very careful of drawing the wrong conclusions from primaries in this city with regards to anywhere else. Even if you’re very happy with the results! This stuff really doesn’t translate very far outside of the city & just be sensible with your takes & proclamations. Nuance is your friend.
English
@Matt4VA @danielsgoldman The job isn’t only to hold Trump accountable; it’s to represent your constituents.
English
The fact that @danielsgoldman will not be in Congress next year is a travesty.
Goldman is a pragmatic democrat who would have been one of the best at holding Trump and his administration accountable.

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.
Jaime Harrison@harrisonjaime
I say this with no ill will or animosity: if you hate the Democratic Party, then please don’t run for our nomination. Don’t use our resources. Don’t rely on our volunteers. Don’t use our infrastructure. Don’t ask Democrats to invest their time, money, and energy in your campaign. Focus on building the party you actually support. Political parties aren’t perfect, but they’re built by millions of people who knock doors, make calls, organize meetings, and fight for the values they believe in. If you don’t believe in the party, then don’t ask its members to carry you across the finish line.

@lex_ordo_ @StatisticUrban I’m sure by contrast your *checks profile* technocratic social conservative agenda will capture hearts and minds.
English
@StatisticUrban They aren't just "progressive" like james talarico or something. They are legitimate avowed communists, who explicitly despise America. A dark day for democracy
English
@ShabazzStuart Is electing Latina/Native American, Palestinian-American Muslim, Jewish and Afro-Latina candidates not a diverse enough progressive slate for you?
English
The optics of a mostly white crowd chanting "you're next" to the likely First Black Speaker of the House aren't spectacular. 🤷🏾♂️
English
@annakatherines_ And NYTimes runs opinion pieces like this one (“America has a Masculinity Crisis,” May 29, 2026) where they just pretend like he doesn’t exist, while simultaneously wondering why someone like him doesn’t exist.
English
It’s so funny that he’s literally the Joe Rogan of the left but like 100x more powerful and they kicked him out of the DNC 😭
Hasanabi Productions (fan account)@HasanabiProd
Hasan Piker has now helped 12 Democratic candidates win their primary elections so far this summer, including 4 for Congress, 7 for State Assembly, and 1 for Mayor.
English
@alicianieves__ @ClwnPrncCharlie @constans DSA types would be those fighting to make these things (education, housing, healthcare, childcare, groceries) more affordable for working class people—which moderate D policies have clearly failed to do—so what are you talking about.
English
I dont care where someone goes to run for office. The problem I find is that these DSA types are beneficiaries of conservative and moderate D policies and their backgrounds that make them successful enough to attend college etc, including two parent middle class households, are all policies and sociological elements their socialist policies destroy. They are a new, aspirant elite that seeks to use urban poor already destroyed by welfare experiment to gain power.
English
Who attends your election party is a reflection of your core base. Here, we see the true DSA base: suburban educated white transplants who use edgy politics to justify their active displacement of working class urban people of color.

@Sally7166537797 @Ibrahim_Zabad @MeghanMcCain AIPAC is an organization that represents Israel’s interests. They aren’t Americans; they’re an entity. Nor do they stand for all Jewish Americans.
English
@Ibrahim_Zabad @MeghanMcCain AIPAC are Americans. They, like other PACS, have a right to promote their interests. There are so many PACS. So what if American Jewish folks want one too. Chill out!!
English
To my beautiful Jewish friends in America. We love you. You are not alone. We are just as freaked out as you are and see with clear eyes exactly what is happening.
English
@queerBengali @JohnsonCra85361 The party establishment isn’t effective because it doesn’t have good policy; it goes hand in hand.
English
@JohnsonCra85361 Just what I said.
People are voting for change because they’ve lost faith in the establishment. I don’t think it’s about policy as much as they don’t think the party is effective. And they don’t think that because we lost the presidency
English
I think establishment dems are paying an overall price for allowing Trump to win. And you know what, that’s justified.
The adults in the room didn’t adult until it was too late and now there’s a backlash to them,
