If you think Katie Porter can convince 4 women to put their lives and careers on the line just so she can get elected, you should definitely vote for her
Talia T@upperleftwino
I will say this much: do I believe that Katie Porter would work with Roger Stone to ratfuck the CA Democratic Party? Yes. Yes, I absolutely do. And so should you.

the longer you think about this question, the more angry you get
Brayden@leftistbrayden
I wonder how many members of the Democratic Caucus knew about Swalwell’s behavior before today
English
@helaineolen Your point is well-taken but even post-MeToo I wouldn’t say nil. Clearly a lot of ppl thought him worth endorsing even though his creepiness was an open secret.
English
What makes the Swalwell situation even more awful and confounding is that this is all occurring after MeToo. The odds of him getting away with workplace predation in the long run were nil. He's not just an (alleged) predator, but also an idiot.

There is a certain type of ‘boy mom’ who gets off on violence against women

I wasn’t going to vote for Eric Swalwell, but now that the entire country has put him on trial today and convicted him, I think I might consider it

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY has fought harder against Trump and the GOP than this guy.
Let's reserve judgement until this plays out through the legal system.
I'm 100% SKEPTICAL of anything Roger Stone is involved with, especially 4 weeks before an election. This smells rotten.
English
Eric Swalwell is not alone in mistaking the urge to defend oneself/one’s career for “strength.”
This is not what we mean when we say we want Dems who will fight.
He is a predator and should resign now.

Zohran Mamdani and the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection have announced a "Click to Cancel" rule. The rule would make NYC the first city in the nation to ban subscription traps and force companies to make it just as easy to cancel subscriptions as it is to enroll.

@Wilson__Valdez @DisinfoIsBad No. They were trying to encourage other victims to come forward.

My only comments on the Swalwell stuff before bed:
A) the allegation(s) seems credible. and if it's credible it's bad enough that he should drop out. I guess he does deserve to give his side but it seems like he's done
B) the conduct of certain influencers/operatives on here the past several days has been really disgusting and unbecoming of how anyone decent would handle accusations of something as serious as sexual assault.
People were treating it like it was some sneaker drop or something, gleefully hyping it up. They could've easily waited the few days until the actual story was released. But they wanted the clout and to feel important.
It really was gross. It gave me Tara Reade vibes, again. And made me feel less likely to believe the accusations when they were finally reported (responsibly) and seemed that it was coming from a place that was primarily concerned with getting at a political rival.

The longer I live, the more I become convinced that the only thing that matters in literature is the (more or less less irrational) shamanism of a book, i.e. that the writer is first of all an enchanter.

@travi44 @AdamSchiff @mel_med_larson Good so if you want a party that elevates rapists you know where to go
English
@AdamSchiff @mel_med_larson Mr. Schiff, this is more like shades of a hit piece. You Senators & Congress, need to be thorough regarding this matter. If this was happening to a Magat, they’d get away with it! Just look at that pig Tony Gonzales out in Texas who is still a member of Congress.

I have read the San Francisco Chronicle’s account and I am deeply distressed by its allegations. This woman was brave to come forward, and we should take her story seriously.
I am withdrawing my endorsement immediately, and believe that he should withdraw from the race.

A woman who worked for nearly two years for Rep. Eric Swalwell, a leading candidate for California governor, said she had sexual encounters with him while he was her boss and alleged he twice sexually assaulted her when she was too intoxicated to consent. sfchronicle.com/politics/artic…
English
I ask those who endorsed him to take a good hard look in the mirror and then to go forth and educate themselves about rape culture.
You don’t have to police everyone, but you don’t have to endorse creeps either.
Organizermemes@OrganizerMemes
People talked about swallwell openly at dem aligned events in dc I've been to. Him being a creep was an open secret
English
@LqLana I don’t consider defending rapists to be a sign of strength
English
Democrats are weak as
Fuck.
Same as how we ran from Twitter when the going got tough is the same here.
We will desert a candidate in a split second. Republicans know this about us. They saw what we did to Al Franken.

The way Kamala Harris could have just claimed the California governorship if she wanted it. Like, she could have put her name on the ballot, done absolutely nothing, and been governor.

He should spare us and the party the spectacle and resign
Ro Khanna@RoKhanna
Meeting with Epstein survivors has taught me how much trauma survivors endure and how much courage it takes for them to speak up. No one in a position of power should be allowed to act above the law or with impunity. It doesn’t matter what office you hold, how wealthy you are, or which political party you align with. The same rules must apply to Eric Swalwell. There must be the appropriate law enforcement investigations and House ethics investigations. He must be held accountable. There cannot be two tiers of justice in this nation.
