My favorite stat that centrists like Matthew Yglesias are throwing around is that DSA underperformed with a cute little chart. They list Chris Raab as an underperformer, because in 2024 the PA-3 nominee ran unopposed and got 100% of the vote, while Rabb only got 93% of the vote!

Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. cnn.it/4iEnxUo

Matt Bennett warned Mamdani's election would be "weaponized by the Republicans." Now, he's trying to claim Mamdani-esque populist rhetoric was his all along.
Leaving aside the “Corporate Dem” slur, was Bernie Sanders the first Democratic (adjacent) candidate to use populist rhetoric in the modern era? No. Can you be labeled by the left an economic populist and still be a moderate? Yes. And is the left pretty much admitting that we’re all moderates now? Seems like it! 5/

wow -- CNN broadcast footage of an Arlington guard yelling at a group with Pete Hegseth to "MAINTAIN SILENCE ... PAY RESPECT!" after someone in his entourage started laughing at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

we tested this last year — the establishment democratic message added three points to the dem margin, the bernie-style economic populist message added 12
If the election was a test of whether Americans like Sanders’s message more or less than the standard Democratic message, the answer was clear: They like it less. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1…

The disgusting privilege and entitlement from a guy with HALF Trump’s approval rating. Nuke the seniority system and the egos of these pricks squandering the massive democratic energy.

Alex Karp now says that Palantir is progressive, he’s always been a Democrat, Trump went too far on immigration and his primary commitment is to economic justice. LMAOOOOOO
ambrose retweeted
Yep.
Massive electoral overpeformers like James Talarico ran as far away from Bernie’s message as possible — lambasting a rigged economic system that makes it impossible for working people to get by, calling out the greed of billionaires and advocating raising their taxes, focusing on a top-versus-bottom vs. left-versus-right division, raising the minimum wage, getting big money out of politics…
HEY WAIT A MINUTE

ABSOLUTELY INSANE.
THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.
Katherine Clark is the Democratic Whip in the House, and it is thus her responsibility to ensure members are there to vote.
Clark is also a founding member of EDW, which hosted an event tonight from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, overlapping with the 5:30pm vote on the Hegseth impeachment.
Of the 11 members who missed the Hegseth vote, 8 have received support from EDW or its AIPAC-tied super PAC EDW Action. Of those 8, two are sitting board members.

Republican plants devising a blowout GOP victory for 2028
CNN: Centrist Democrats are urging Hakeem Jeffries and party leaders to steer clear of abolishing ICE, ending US support for Israel and transgender issues after the midterms
Henry Cuellar: "I just hope that we don't get carried away, get caught up in these fringe issues."

This should be the end of Jeffries as speaker. The fact 11 dems missed this vote is Insane.
Kamlager-Dove on Hegseth Impeachment: We knew that this vote was coming, so people should have gotten their raggedy selves up these steps to vote. There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues.
You know this man should not be in this position. That’s why he got up at 8 o’clock in the morning with his sorry self to plead to the American people.
So shame on folks who are not here. Because these people lost. They lost, and they still found a way to show up to table this bill. Shameful.

Split screen at Capitol Hill today:
Hakeem Jeffries is arguing that he should be the leader of the Democrats — and then, as the current leader, he couldn’t get enough Democrats to show up to impeach Pete Hegseth

For younger folks: this was a pretty common talking point in 2004-2006.
Secretary of War Hegseth says criticizing President Trump's military operations means criticizing the troops who carried them out, pushing back against Democrats over what he calls partisan political games.
Defending Trump's military decisions, Hegseth praises the president's leadership and the courage of American service members.
"I couldn't be more proud of what our president has done, the decisions that he's made, the courageous calls that he's made."
"Anybody who's paying attention knows that these are the kind of partisan political games Democrats have been playing for a very long time."

it’s a tragedy what’s happened to this city. when I moved here in 1810 there was real character. now it’s overrun with yuppie soldiers from new york who can’t paddle a canoe and call fort dearborn a “vibe.” every fur trading post has a line of NPCs wrapping around the block and some guy from massachusetts just opened another tavern on the river serving some imported hipster madeira crap for twelve cents a glass (yes, seriously). please go back to connecticut we are full

You guys.
It's literally a refrigerator.
Everyone has complete faith in their refrigerator, even their AC, but you say "Hey you can run it backwards and dump the heat inside" and everyone acts like it's voodoo black magic.

There's a coordinated effort going on right now to co-opt "universal healthcare" and present inferior models that increase prices and protect the profits of pharma and insurance companies. Realistically, multi-payer systems tend to end up functioning like single-payer systems with higher costs.
