We can't criticize Angie Nixon running as DSA in Florida with a very anti-socialist and critical Cuban community but we can criticize Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer who engineered record majorities in the House and Senate. Like who the fuck raised y'all?

Most extremism is formed when Big Feelings meet with low civic knowledge. Pelosi was speaker. When D’s got tossed she decided to stay on as minority leader because when Congress flipped back, minority leaders become majority leaders. In fact, Since the House’s formal minority-leader record began in 1899, every time Democrats regained control, their minority leader became Speaker. Y’all are are asking your progressive heroes to deny the minority leader the promotion for the first time in history the elevation to Speaker AND it just so happens, the first Black man to rise to that position which requires years of institutional experience to do the job. Not to mention , dude helped lead the party to the best D midterm in history. Do you see the issue now????
If you so obseessed with optics and we want principled leadership, Ayanna Pressly is right there for the compromise. No need to settle for the AIPAC black. FOH

Lemme be clear Angie Nixon’s loss is on her and DSA. No one else. They decided to run that bullshit platform in Florida and they fucked around and found out. Know your audience. They didn’t. Take some personal responsibility. Stop blaming everybody else.

This is huge: Rep. Senfronia Thompson says she has secured enough support to become the next Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives! Presumptive-Speaker Thompson will be Texas' first Black Speaker, first female Speaker, and the first Democrat to lead the House since 2003.

Until these people can answer one simple question, I refuse to take them seriously: Has anyone actually launched a challenge to Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer? Since the answer is NO, the conversation is over, because I personally don’t care about your feelings. Sorry 🤷🏽‍♀️

Leftists prefer performative politics that gets no one more care or coverage. Moderates prefer the best bill that helps the most people, that can pass and Trump will sign. And they will take advantage of any weakness he has to make their bill stronger and will campaign on it in the next election. It’s called pragmatism and incrementalism and IT WORKS.
U.S. Representative-elect Melat Kiros: I would like to force Donald Trump to veto Medicare for All.

Here’s another tidbit. If y’all would bother talking an America politics 101 you’d understand how the institution of Congress works- both chambers which operate very differently- the House minority is utterly powerless. You were asking the man to do shit he can not do. But now he can

CNN: Hakeem Jeffries responds to DSA supporters who chanted "You're next!" at victory party "It was very interesting to me, as observed by others, that there was almost zero diversity in that crowd." Link: edition.cnn.com/2026/11/08/p…

Just thinking how the free Palestine protesters didn't protest against Republicans. How they harassed Democrats and Jews in this country. And how they now want to tell us who they find acceptable and who they don't. While never putting in the work that the Black base did.

Angie Nixon and DSA fumbled Florida not Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. Nobody wants that bullshit agenda in Florida especially the expat Cuban community and we shouldn't have to explain this shit to people.
Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and Cory Booker are fucking idiots. They cannot be allowed to retain party leadership after fumbling Angie Nixon and (nearly) Scott Colom.

No. Nominating a socialist in state full of Latinos that fled cruel socialist regimes is why she lost. If you had selected a center-left, or hell, even a regular non-DSA progressive, we would have won that seat.
Chuck Schumer is the reason Angie Nixon is not a senator. He must resign

So let me get this straight. DSA wants to bitch about the Democratic establishment not funding Angie Nixon’s Senate race, but when asked why DSA didn’t fund her, the answer is y’all had no money? If y’all don’t get the fuck out of our faces. I’m sick of you motherfuckers.

AOC, Jaypal, & Khanna all support Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker. Van Hollen & Warren aren't interested in being Majority Leader. Bernie is a INDEPENDENT. 🙄🫠 Seek help for your goofy (((AIPAC))) obsession. It's weird and pathetic.
Here is the list of people for the next Speaker: Ro Khanna Pramila Jayapal Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Here is the list for Sen Maj Leader: Chris Van Hollen Bernie Sanders Elizabeth Warren The star list above don't take AIPAC $$. @SenSchumer and @RepJeffries have got to go.

It’s so funny when leftists talk about the Green New Deal because Biden accomplished about half of the provisions in it and leftists literally didn’t acknowledge it at the time or at any time since.
Here's the clip in HD because it's looking like we'll be using it a lot Jon Ossoff doesn't support the Green New Deal, he doesn't support Medicare for All, he doesn't support Abolishing ICE He voted to fund ICE, and to give them the power to jail anyone without due process

“He took a meeting with Kushner” that nothing came out of it is really the stupidest fucking critique.
