These Swifties are out of control. LOL

LOL. Be still my redneck heart. I loved this.

Journalist Sam Husseini was removed from Blinken's last press conference. Removing journalists, refusing to answer questions, gaslighting, and impeding freedom of the Press has been a bi-partisan endeavor. Just many liberals didn't care when a Democrat was POTUS.

I'm sorry to the folks I fundraised off, pushed to phone bank and door knock. To the people I told that AOC, as a Brand New Congress & Justice Dems recruited candidate, would bring change by challenging the status quo. From Ruckus to opportunists. I'm beyond disappointed too.

I think it's three things. 1. Proximity to wealth tends to lean more right. 2. Isolation during Covid. Many GenZ men got pulled into the right's pipeline. 3. Debate bro culture like Destiny and so-called "moderate Dems" normalizing fascism.

A Kamala win would signal to the oligarchy that as long as there's a Trump or worse, they can use fear to shift as far right in the Dem party as they want. It moves us deeper into fascism. If mass atrocities and genocide aren't a redline, that's a horrific reality. What's next?

The way they pull the gun out of their pants. The way they are holding the weapon. These are untrained, armed, masked vigilantes funded by Federal dollars. State-sanctioned violent bullies who think they are action heroes, when they are the Gestapo.

This is GOP rhetoric. Literally Heritige Foundation. There is a housing surplus in some areas. A shortage in others. "Rolling back red tape?" Quality controls? We had a surge of fly by night contractors in the 1990s, causing massive safety issues. Houses were falling apart.

Watters calling someone else "soft."

Why on god's green Earth, are people talking about the next Presidential election? Who cares. We are in crisis NOW. Liberal media is so out of touch and insufferable. Even in crisis they focus on pageantry over substance.

Imagine growing an audience off of Palestinian suffering. Then making this thumbnail, and video to defend Kamala Harris and trivialize an anti-genocide candidate, to carry water for the establishment Dems who are engaged in enabling mass atrocities.

I'm Appalachian. Middle Eastern. A single Mom. Impoverished. I'm part of groups who are told to STFU and vote for "harm reduction," while we continue to be harmed, poisoned, exploited, demeaned, dehumanized. I'm sick of being dispensable, so liberals can go back to brunch.

I've got 10,000 other pictures and videos, many even worse than this. Delete your post!

Watters: vigilante justice bad Also Watters: Vigelante justice good

THREAD: I've said for 10 years that the Dems ALWAYS ignorantly move right, and is part of why they LOSE. They do this for 3 reasons: 1. They would rather do the bidding of their corporate donors than win votes. 1/

Biden promised that if he is elected again he's restore Roe v. Wade again. WTF has he been doing the last 2 years? Does he realize he's President RIGHT NOW? Why wasn't it ALREADY codified? Or do people have to continue to suffer these extreme bills, so he'll get elected again?

Short Thread: They are endorsing Kamala Harris now. Waleed Shahid has a history of coopting organic movements, starting a website, collecting lists through petitions, moving that into "Democratic Party reformation), then making watered-down requests, and then closing up shop...

Let me make this clear. This is as abhorrent as what Giuliani said about Palestinians at MSG. Just as racist and dehumanizing. Just as bloodthirsty. Even if it's cloaked in civility and more flowery. It's the same damn speech.

Wow. The pro-genocide AIPAC rally is whiter than the Jan. 6th rally. The only black people there are Van Jones and Hakeem Jefferies.

🧵I organized against Trump's horrible policies during his entire presidency. THEN I watched the liberal media and a multitude of organizers stop reporting on, and organizing against policies when Biden expanded many of Trump's policies. Gaslight us about a genocide, and now enthusiastically support Harris' campaign as she's shifted far right in policy, to being only a hairline away from Trump on a wide range of policies.

My takeaway from the Dana Bash interview: Kamala Harris is a 2010s Republican. GOP border policy. GOP drilling/fracking policy. GOP in her cabinet. GOP policing policy. GOP trickle-down economic policy. GOP pro-military industrial complex policy

Clearly you've never been to a protest, OR, you are doing this for nefarious reasons. You are going to get people seriously hurt, and detained. This is irresponsible.

I keep hearing that after elected, libs will hold Kamala accountable. Liberals failed to hold Biden accountable. The media didn't even report on him accurately. AND, his VP gets a vote anyway. SO, what's the plan libs? How are you going to hold Kamala accountable?

She never supported "Hamas." She wanted an end to mass violence and genocide. She criticized Israel's policies. Why are you like this? Where does this hate come from? Fear? Anger? Needing someone to hate?

Yes. Then maybe Kamala shouldn't have sprinted to the right and ran as "trump light," to "rally the Never Trump voter," while ignoring her base that was begging her to take a stand against genocide, mass deportation, the police state, and to stop gaslighting abt the economy.

I wasn't voting for Kamala. She supports fracking and loosening regs in Appalachia. People are dying. I've lost people. At least w/ Jill Stein, if we get 2%, we can launch a 3rd party to fight in a once-blue state the Dem party abandoned. What are we winning with Harris?

Now that the Cheney endorsement is flopping massively, I've heard 3 corporate media pundits refer to these billboards in Michigan as a "smear campaign." Kamala was campaigning with Liz Cheney in Michigan LAST WEEK. There's no lie here. She did this to herself.

Not to rain on the parade. But this is important. After last night's election, people are acting like it's all new. And I get it for younger generations that don't know. BUT, hell, Obama ran on tuition-free college, universal healthcare, and living wages, closing down GITMO and ending forever wars. He didn't do it, but he ran on it, because it was popular. The Democratic Party KNOWS these policies are popular. They've always known. Their centrist stance is a form of gaslighting. Left policies are ALWAYS popular; that's NEVER been the problem. The Democratic Party DOES often roll out candidates that appear to shift to the left, but only every election cycle, then they shift right when they come into power. To break cycles, we have to recognize those cycles.

You spent months scolding people upset with the current admin for arming and funding genocide. Your logic: State sanctioned murder = "still lesser evil." People not mourning a CEO responsible for the tremendous suffering & death = "EVIL." Your mind is warped.

AOC is wrong. Third parties are required to run POTUS & gain 2-5% to meet state party requirements in most states, to even run down-ballot. What's "unserious" is the Dems have abandoned the 50-state strategy, leaving 65% of seats UNCONTESTED down-ballot this year alone.

A little history lesson that's prescient: The Whig Party was the liberal party in the 1800s. During fights for abolition, a third party arose that was anti-slavery. The Whig party coined the terms "spoiler vote," "purity test," and "lesser-evil," to demonize abolitionist voters, as the liberal Whigs argued that anti-slavery was too extreme and that we needed "more humane slavery." That people should vote for the Whigs because the right-wing Democrat party was the "greater evil." Aristocrats ran the Whigs and were disconnected from everyday people. They embraced a policy that secured THEIR own wealth. Abolitionists started building. Refused to vote for the Whigs. Built a 3rd party. Eventually, Abraham Lincoln, the underdog 3rd party candidate won. In this last election, liberals argued that a red line on genocide and mass atrocities was a "purity test." That wanting universal healthcare was too much. That being against wars, mass deportation, and police militarization was "extreme." Those who gaslit and lied to run cover for horrific war crimes were minimized to the "lesser evil." Liberals claimed voting 3rd party was a "spoiler vote," sounds familiar, right? This is how liberals inadvertently normalize the zeitgeist that buttresses authoritarianism and inhumane policy. They helped normalize Trump. If we learned from history, maybe we wouldn't repeat it. Blame toward voters is misdirected. The DNC had a choice to embrace basic humane policies and refused.

Why do people do videos on things they don't know anything about? What makes them SO CONFIDENT to parrot shallow propaganda? I don't get it. 1. AGAIN: Dems abandon the 50-state strategy. Defuned 17 state houses in 15 yrs, abandoning blue states and handing them to the GOP. They leaving 65% of seats down the ballot uncontested this year. Blows his building power narrative out of the water. Yet no mainstream media reports on this. 2. There needs to be a party to challenge the GOP. Dems sure as HELL aren't. 3. WFP IS NOT A REGISTERED PARTY. They are an arm of the Dems. And they ROLL OVER. 4. YES third parties CAN gain different kinds of power, even before we are able to get rank choice everywhere. There's a lot more I can say. But that's a start. So confident. Yet so uninformed. SO f-n frustrating.

Jasmine Crockett, too. Just pointing that out because people act like she's some leftist hero when in reality, she's regularly supported genocide.

You are just like Maga. Just like his cultists and Musk's cultists that are ignoring everything terrible they are doing because they believe the other side is the "greater evil." You are Maga. Just for a different team.

🧵There's a reason why Appalachians can't stand Hillbilly Elegy and liberals loved it. It's because it embraces all the stereotypes of Appalachians and rural folk being lazy, stupid, and unmotivated. He paints himself as "one of the good ones" that, "got out." 1/

Don't bring autism into this. You can't tell me a man with a long history of supporting eugenics, who is constantly posting race bait content, didn't know what he was doing.

Trump already said he wanted to deport some U.S. citizens COTE and elsewhere. Just he said, "criminals," and "bad, bad people." Which, we can see now, what they call "criminal."

Clinton did the work of the Heritage Foundation. He gutted critical safety nets like childcare, public housing, and the FDA. And was the first to privitize prisons. A disaster. He's hated nationwide for the destruction of the middle class. This isn't a flex. It's a warning.

There are still protests. But pretty sociopathic to bring this up like some kind of "gotcha," rather than being concerned about the next stage in this horrific genocide. aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/5/…

Obama was the one that passed policy that ICE can wear civilian clothes and cover their faces. He was a monster on immigration. Arguing FOR fascism to stop fascism? Peak liberalism

Kamala's entire campaign is directed at neocons. Not progressives, leftists, or EVEN Dems. But we're expected to make ALL the concessions, & vote for an unpopular platform, under the threat of Trump Presidency if we don't? To cover the gap of votes she loses by shifting right?

I'm sick of being told to wait to "push corporate-bought Dems left." After the election. After the first 100 days. After the first year. After midterms. After the NEXT election. Rinse, repeat. FOR DECADES. Why not NOW? Push them NOW, or push them OUT.

Many juices have more sugar than soda. Will you block those too? Diet soda? Coke Zero? Tea and coolaid purchases? You gonna follow ppl home and see how much sugar they use in their sweet tea? Chocolate milk? This is a very stupid argument.

Katie Halper lost her job reporting on Palestine last year. Abby Martin covered the March of Return in 2017. All the amazing journalists IN Palestine, or Palestinian journalists. This grifter, who's making $$$ of genocide, and who kissed Bibi's ass last year gets an award.

Anyone who is like "context, what is the cop's side." WTF are you talking about? This is a handcuffed child being physically assaulted after being arrested for simply selling flowers without a permit. Something's wrong with you if you try to rationalize that grown-assed man's behavior

A vote for Trump is vote a for Trump. A vote for Stein is a vote for Stein. A vote for Kamala... A vote for Chase Oliver... You get the drift. "Spoiler vote," is a myth. If your candidate didn't earn those votes, that's on them. You are not entitled to them.

Even denying a stay for a pulmonary embolism. These bastards don't fear any repraisals b/c they know we can't afford to fight then.

STILL: I'm sick of being told to wait to "push corporate-bought Dems left." After the election. After the first 100 days. After the first year. After midterms. After the NEXT election. Rinse, repeat. FOR DECADES. Why not NOW? Push them NOW, or push them OUT.

THIS IS ALREADY HAPPENING. What is Biden doing about it NOW. It's been happening for MONTHS. He gave billions so Ben Gvir could arm settlers. Where have you been? Stop pretending like you care if you didn't even know this.

🧵I owe an apology. I worked at Justice Dems & BNC (BNC 4 yrs). As Comms Director I wrote emails promising that we would hold progressive candidates accountable once elected and call them out if they swayed from the platform. We were supposed to shake up the 2-party system 1/4

What a weird thing to post. 80% of Gaza was destroyed under the last administration. Where was she then? Supporting war crimes, that's where.

Do you eat your hot dogs, chips, French fries, chicken tenders, tortilla chips, potato chips, tacos, pizza, sandwiches, oranges, watermelon, strawberries, apples, with a fork? I doubt it. Scooping up with bread is NORMAL. Y'all are the weirdos.

The Constitution protects all on our soil having these rights, not just citizens. And the crux of it is a right to criticize the government. Read something called the "Federalist Papers." Look up 1st Amendment cases SCOTUS.

This, "cut back red tape to build homes," bullshit will help companies. Not us. Kamala is repeating the 1990s, right b/4 the housing bubble burst. A bubble she refused to prosecute Steven Mnuchin for. THIS is Mnuchin policy.

You cheerlead for billionaires, and YOU are going to point out hypocrisy. WHY are middle-class homes now 3/4 of a million? Huh? You don't care about that part. Loser.

Why are you posting one of the most prolific white nationalist accounts on this site? These photos aren't even from the USA. Why do Dems always fall for the Right's virtue signal baiting

The "Roman Salute" also has nothing to do with Roman history and was started by the Italian Fascist regime in 1923. It is innately fascist.

This is "Birth of a Nation" racism. The man who brutally killed her daughter has been convicted, and is in a U.S. prison. The WH knows Kilmar Garcia has nothing to do with this case. This is to muddy the waters and use fear justify concentration camps.

3. They don't REALLY care if they win or lose, the point is maintaining power in the form of money and donors. The political power isn't the aim. Otherwise they wouldn't have abandoned 1/2 the country, leaving 65% of all seats uncontested and in the hands of the GOP. 3/

Progressive policies such as ending wars, worker rights, healthcare for all, tuition-free college, student loan forgiveness, paid family leave, taxing corporations, money out of politics, on and on are POPULAR. Dems would rather lose (and often do) than give up ANY of their privileges as elites. End/End.

So, ya'll are literally policing speech now and determining what is hateful and what isn't? And conservatives are in the comments celebrating that now?

ALARMING! 🚨From Reuters: Reports that a team headed by Musk has taken over the Office of Personnel Management. Locked gov employees put of the massive datasets that "covers every facet of the federal workforce." They have set up beds and cots in the Director's office.

Appalachians fought hard to end company towns. Outlawed by Congress in 1967. There was a reason it was outlawed. If you don't know about them...it's time to read up. pbs.org/tpt/slavery-by-anoth…

"Just let ICE round up your families, and children to be stripped away and stand by the modern Gestapo...while I support it as Senator. We'll handle it in 2 years if Dems win the Senate, maybe...prob not."

These people are literal demons.

The DEMOCRATS and GOP turned Gaza into a parking lot. Nearly everyone in Congress voted for it. Biden's admin literally gave billions in weapons to Israel, clearing the way for Trump. Stop gaslighting. You are a party cultist. Just like Maga.

"Hold the line," on a joke? You all are snowflakes. Also, "hold the line" refers to workers holding the line when striking. I didn't know you embraced leftist language. Nancy is woke. LOL

To dig in heels after such a tragedy is just sad. Maybe part of it is avoiding self-blame. But what they are doing will also hurt others. It's very twisted, sad, and disturbing.

It's codified by the 1972 EEOC Act. This reversal doesn't do much. But, I am afraid that this massive dogwhistle means the incoming Congress might try to reverse the 1972 legislation. It's still scary and very concerning.

I saw a woman, a beautiful white British woman, on a video talking about spiritual manifestation. Her whole diatribe was about, "you manifest what happens in your life." Or, "Try to live in joy." Or, "you can't let the horrible things in the world affect you." I just thought, WOW, what a place of privilege. It blames those in generational poverty, suffering genocides, suffering domestic violence, health crises, and others as just not "manifesting hard enough." It also signals to others that it's perfectly spiritually healthy to ignore the suffering of others. This form of narcissistic spirituality isn't loving or joyful. It's materialistic, shallow, and dehumanizing. It's often just wealthy people trying to rationalize their station as divine. It's toxic.

2. They are elites, so are ignorant about the public and think the public is neo-cons like them, despite issues like Medicare for All being extremely popular. Also stereotypes of the "rural, ignorant, right-wing voter," going by election results as a baseline, and NOT considering nuances like voter turnout. Or that Dems defunded state parties across the country, and stopped running in most states so many once "blue" states are now "red" because the Dem party isn't even running there.

I just looked at your search history. You are gaslighting concern. MAYBE if Kamala didn't run as a Dick Cheney neocon. Didn't gaslight about the economy, and genocide. Didn't normalize Trump by embracing his platforms, we wouldn't be here. But sure, blame Dearborn.

The smug faces she makes makes my skin crawl and turns my stomach into knots. I can't stand it. It's the peak of neoliberal elitism. There's a lot of symbolism in that.

I always dread the POTUS election cycles because it's the same thing every time. Dems move right on policy, while the GOP moves even further right. The media ignores all other races. We are told, "DEMOCRACY IS ON THE LINE." Been like this since I was a kid.

The fact that they aren't showing ID. Some of them have their faces covered. They are in civilian clothing. No warrant for detention. Anyone can say, "I'm ICE," "I'm a Federal agent," and whisk people away in an unmarked van. This is straight-up fascism. No other way to describe it. ANYONE under this premise can abduct ANYONE.

The reason they had to take a whole chapter to explain "woke" is because all it really means is there are systemic issues of oppression, which they spent a full chapter dismissing with no legitimacy to their arguments, only gaslighting.

You want to deport people, including tens of thousands of U.S. citizens, for engaging in peaceful protests? A First Amendment right because YOU don't like the message of "stop bombing people?"

I'm nonpartisan, both parties are corrupt. But were all you as pissed when GOP judges blocked 85 of Biden's actions. Or do you only call "tryanny" on checks and balances when it's your favored POTUS and agenda? And yell "executive overreach," when the other party is in the WH?

🧵The People's Party just released several private messages between Brana and me during the course of our relationship. During an abusive relationship survivors often bend over backward to hold things together, especially when they are trapped in a situation that's hard to...

You're the real culture warriors, snowflakes. Keep posting this lame assed nonsense and exposing yourselves as the losers you are.

Why would ICE be investigating a stolen purse? Lol.

I'm seeing this everywhere. And, from people I thought would be better. It's sad to see.

I just got evicted. Landlord talked down to me the whole time, asking me why I can't find work. I am only 10 days late this month. She said, "You can't find a job with all these help-wanted signs everywhere?" She said she's had to "get rid of ppl like me." It was horrible.

Many of these Christian MAGA would have called the ICE hotline on Mary and Joseph if they had stopped at the Inn, when they escaped Herod's mandate. "I don't care if you are pregnant, follow the larws you illegulls."

So, they are angry that Egypt is assembling "obstructions" that could "hinder Israeli operations" within Egyptian borders?

It's disgusting that your response to what is happening now is, "told you so." By the way, her policy on Israel was unwavering support. So, it's niave as hell to believe she would stop funding these horrors.

Cheney had an 11% approval rating when he left office. He's universally hated. The only one "accelerating" anything is the Dem party strategy and bad policy. And, neoliberals thinking neocon policy wins, b/c they are out of touch. Same tired strategy that often loses.

Neoliberal Dems: "You are stupid." "You don't know basic civics. Do you know how elections work?" Goes on to make an argument not rooted in any fact. I get it. Propaganda is wild right now. People are under informed. But the sheer arrogance is exhausting.

Kamala supporters who say Butch Ware's comments are "disqualifying," BUT are STILL willing to back Harris, despite her complicity in mass atrocities is staggering. I respect Butch's comments being a redline. But this hypocrisy is off the charts. And, dehumanizing.

She looks young and the fact that she already lost her parents. Life expectancy is dropping. We are losing our loved ones. It's generational suffering. I recently lost my Mom, and she did everything right too, yet struggled. My heart was wrenching, I related so much to this.

That's because the Dem party is the GOP of the early 2000s now. He wants to go back to when people ignored that Clinton rolled back Glass Stegall. Or when Obama privatized prisons, Medicaid. The good ol' days, when they could feign benevolence while handing the GOP everything.

It's not a "two-party system." It's an undemocratic monopoly that works for the same interests. And those interests aren't the people.

I expect her to talk about policies while she has this platform. M4A, fed. jobs guarantee. I expect her not gaslight and kiss Kamala's ass so shamelessly. It's okay to expect more out of our representative instead of just, "what did you expect?"

Why are you a journalist that is lumping an entire swath of people into one category? My goal in voting Stein is: 1. Voting against two candidates who both support mass deportations, police militarization, cop cities, criminalizing protesters, austerity politics, election engineering, poisioning my community w more fracking and pipelines, and Project 2025. 2. 2% in my state means the ability to start a state party. The DNC abandoned once blue KY, b/c we are poor. Left it in the hands of the GOP when they defunded the 50-state strategy. Now 79% of down ballot races are uncontested. This isn't as shallow as Trump or Harris. It's far more complex. It's about trying to fight the fascism of BOTH major parties that are crippling regions like mine, and are complicit in mass atrocities abroad. To downplay the severity of where we are now is what is harmful. We are suffering and dying out here, Mehdi. The onus is on the Dems to do better. Not on us that are sick of poverty, death, and being thrown under the bus.

RFK lied. There's a huge difference in donations from a fry cook at McDonalds and donations from CEOs and corporate PACs. Bernie's donations, according to Open secrets. Zero corporate PAC money. Unlike RFK who put his billionaire donors as his running mate.

We can't wait 'till the next election cycle to raise a "ruckus." The political system breeds ego, corruption, and desperation for relevance. Can't let the "progressives," who are nothing but regular ol' Dems, make us lose focus on what matters. We must organize today. END🧵

Pretending like what you described isn't how most media already operates, so you can somehow try to letigimize Randolph Hurst style propaganda and yellow journalism. We see the BS Jeff. The gilded age sucked. We aren't going back.

MY daughter is 14. She was talking about how it's interesting that exploitative elites (especially in the right wing) will reference movies like Star Wars, Dune, or Lord of the Rings, and twist it. With zero self-reflection. She said, "we need more movies that don't use analogies and just say the thing."

Yeah. This smug b/s and discounting people harmed by bad policies, the sheer entitlement, and refusing to listen, is a big reason why Dems keep losing. "Hit dogs."

People are still starving, being bombed, and horrifically brutalized. They deserve dignity. Life. STOP ARMING ISRAEL REFUND UNRWA STOP BLOCKING THE U.N. & ICJ SANCTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RETURN ALL HOSTAGES, including the tens of thousands of Palestinians being brutalized. End
