Bernie is on the cusp of seeing a political project that he has built up for over 40 years fulfilled. He’ll be damned if he doesn’t see it through.
Bernie Sanders is on one tonight 😆

alright, libbing out is over, now it’s time to address how talarico, acton and turek threw trans people under the bus, and anti-trans ballot measures passing in numerous states.

sorry to rain on y’all’s parade, but this election is showing a lot of similarities to how the uk labour party’s descent into outright transphobia happened. we need to be more vigilant than ever in protecting trans people. the war on trans rights is far from over.

In an NBC News poll last week, Hakeem Jeffries had an approval rating of 18%, and Chuck Schumer's was 13%. It's wild seeing them both act like they have mandates to lead the party going forward.

let it be known that abdul never threw trans people under the bus like kamala did, stood up for them explicitly the weekend before his election, and won the state she lost in.

Republicans after winning by one vote: "We have a mandate to do whatever we want" Democrats after winning by a generational margin:
Hakeem Jeffries: “This is not a partisan moment. This is a patriotic moment. This is not a blue moment or a red moment. It’s a red, white and blue moment because American has won tonight."

They shot people in the street @RepJeffries
Hakeem Jeffries on Morning Joe: The American people don't want us to get even. They want us to get things done on their behalf because life is way too expensive. We ran on affordability, we won on affordability, and now it's our job to govern on affordability.

It’s like establishment democrats are addicted to losing and now they’re going through withdrawal looking for a fix
Jeffries: "I haven't had a single member of the House Democratic caucus talk to me about impeachment. We've been relentlessly focused on affordability and accountability."

Anyyyyways awesome election but trans people per usual left on their own because <1% of the population is too small to have any meaningful coalition of support and liberals have no moral backbone

Too many anti-trans amendments passed nationwide. Thankfully not in my state but I'm not gonna pretend this is a glorious win for my people. I suspect many of these Corporate Dems will not adequately defend trans rights. The Work is Not Done. We must push the party Further Left
Happy about tonight, BUT yes we have to realize many Democrats are quite Right Leaning and are controlled by Corporate Money. The system is incredibly broken. Capitalism Corrupts everything it touches. Corpo Dems are incapable of making the decisions we need. Work not done

Haley Stevens’ betrayal today shows us it’s not that progressive Democrats, or even democratic socialists, need their own party. It’s that politicians like Haley Stevens always had more in common with Republicans like Mike Rogers and Donald Trump than with the Democratic base. And now she admits it. That’s why it’s so important to run democratic primaries. It’s not enough to send Democrats to Washington, we have to send Democrats who are fighting for the things working class voters want!
