NOT ENOUGH. CALL MORE. NO SCHUMER, NO JEFFRIES.
NEW: House Dems "inundated" w/ calls & emails urging them not to elect Jeffries speaker
One member told @axios they got "300-400" calls in 2 days
Another said "over 500"
A third said "higher" than 500: "It's our No. 1 issue, and it's not close." axios.com/2026/11/06/jeffrie…

DEMOCRATS MUST DELIVER
Trumpism grew out of the failure of the Democratic Party to stand with working families. That cannot continue. At a time of unprecedented income and wealth inequality and declining faith in democracy, Democrats MUST deliver. No excuses.
- Medicare for All
- A $20-an-hour minimum wage
- The PRO Act
- A wealth tax on billionaires, which would pay for universal childcare, free public colleges and universities, and a massive housing program
- An AI data center moratorium
- Bringing ICE under control and comprehensive immigration reform
- REAL campaign finance reform

Jon Stewart: "Remove that system of seniority from Democratic politics, it is a bullshit system... They're already like 'Chuck Schumer deserves a lot of credit for putting together this--' Chuck Schumer fought tooth-and-nail against half of these fucking people."

Senator-elect Peggy Flanagan calling for replacing Chuck Schumer as leader:
“I am tremendously grateful for Chuck Schumer’s leadership … and I think it is time for new leadership,”
ALT Screenshot of text from Minnesota Reformer: "I am tremendously grateful for Chuck Schumer's leadership ... and I think it is time for new leadership," Flanagan said, repeating a campaign promise to support an alternative. She did not say who she thinks should replace Schumer, the soon-to-be 76-year-old senator from New York who has led the Democratic caucus in the upper chamber for the past decade and first arrived in Congress in 1981.

This is the key point from Mamdani.
Yeah, sure, obsess over swings and under and over performance all day long if that’s your thing.
But once Dems have won, narrowly or not, what do those Dems do with actual power? Not just to improve people’s lives but also to *stay* in power?
Zohran Mamdani: “It’s not enough for us as Democrats to win power. We have to use that power to deliver change that Americans can feel in their wallets. When you look at these campaigns, if we want to speak about James Talarico, he campaigned on a vision for universal childcare. If you want to talk about Keisha Lance Bottoms, she campaigned on a vision of cutting red tape to build housing. If you want to talk about Jocelyn Benson, she campaigned on a moratorium for data centers. What I’m excited to see now is a recognition that the work is only just starting and this has to be delivered for working people across the country”
