Anyone here want #Greens, #PSL & other #Leftwing parties to make a rally: #BernieSanders & #AOC Aren't Gonna Save Us, We Want #Revolution!

Because that's what we truly need to bash this into peoples' heads.

With apologies to DNC chair Ken Martin, I disagree with him regarding David Hogg and agree with Adam Green of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee. These are not normal times. Boldness is required. Get rid of do-nothing incumbents and replace them with candidates who are willing to fight rather than cozy up to Republicans. #Politics #Democracy #Democrats #DNC #DavidHogg #US #USpol https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/24/democrats-david-hogg-dnc

Oh boo hoo hoo hoo …

Your revenues dropped 71% since outing yourself as a Trump loving Nazi. That’s what happens when you betray your country.

So, suck it up, Elon!

Make #America #Healthy Again is all about eating more fast #food & making lists of #queer & #autistic people but does not include cheaper or free #healthcare which is interesting.

From our magazine: Democrats’ hopes of pulling off statewide victory in #Texas have been rather thoroughly decimated over the last three cycles. But, as always, the party will start to convince itself that the next election will be different. And, of course, one can always find reason for a shred of optimism. https://www.texasobserver.org/its-a-long-way-to-the-top-if-you-wanna-oust-the-pols/
