The Abdul El-Sayed victory is turning into another very useful litmus test to divide people who think the point of politics is the election vs people who think the point of politics is what happens after the election

As an immediate first step to Medicare for All, the new Democratic Congress must lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55, cover all kids & expand Medicare for dental, vision & hearing.
All of this can be passed with 51 votes in the Senate through reconciliation. Let’s do it.

You're actually allowed to suggest that Dems could use new leadership without also suggesting who it should be. That's completely okay.
DO BOTH!
Nobody ever worries about throwing money at a problem full of grifters is it is Israel, defence contractors, tech companies, utilities, etc. Healthcare is a vital human need!
We should not keep the same congressional leaders who got us here.
Debbie Dingell: This wasn't a vote for Democrats. We lost. Donald Trump won the White House because they were unhappy with the direction of the country.
People are very unhappy with the direction of the country right now. The the cost of everything has them scared. They're worried about their jobs, the war, the corruption
If we don't deliver in the next two years, there's a presidential election. We can't see the drama we saw by Republicans for the last years, and everybody knows that.

Reminder that Democrats never win by convincing Republicans to vote for them, they win by convincing people who aren’t usually politically active to get politically active.

“If he wants to pass Trumpcare-for-All, I'm ok with it.. Donald, if you're watching, we'll put your name on it. You get to be the American president who finally guaranteed health care for every single American."
@AbdulElSayed to me today, lol.

The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the US Senate or the House of Representatives
NEW: Chuck Schumer is preparing to lead the Senate with a network of former aides lobbying for private equity—including two former policy chiefs and his top health adviser. Their clients include Blackstone, Apollo, and the industry’s top trade group. readsludge.com/2026/11/06/th…
The thing that drives me crazy about this stuff is that the reform generated 91 new units over half the time period where the need is 15,000 units. That is a rounding error, not effective policy. Thus, housing prices are exploding.

This story is also another data point in the "electoral overperformance" conversation.
Victoria Broderick ran in 2024, and lost by 43.
The district was redrawn, added a bit more Nashville, but still was Trump +24. And she won it.
Is she an overperformer or an underperformer?
Incredible story here.
Victoria Broderick & Lakesha Womack are working-class women; Womack was homeless and living in a motel 7 years ago.
They each spent less than $100k on their races.
They're both going to Congress.

You have to read this. This is what the working class looks like in 2026 America, not the mythical hard-hat types.

Yes, Democrats are choosing leaders with LOWER favorability than Trump:
🔴 DONALD TRUMP = 38.5
🔵 HAKEEM JEFFRIES = 28.0
🔵 CHUCK SCHUMER = 24.7

This is the most brutal and accurate psychological analysis of Trump & Trumpism I’ve ever seen from @VanLathan

Hayes on Medicare for All: "The odds of Donald Trump signing that into law, pretty small--"
Sen. Sanders: "Hold it, hold it, hold it... Our job is to produce it. He wants to veto it, Republicans want to sustain that veto, that is their responsibility, the American people will see it."

The American people spoke loudly and clearly on Tuesday. The new Democratic majority cannot continue the same old, same old establishment policies.
Working families want change, REAL change, and that’s what Democrats must deliver.

Most Democratic voters want to replace Schumer, polling since 2025 consistently shows. This is not some fringe or "progressive" position. I'm not even sure it's primarily ideological. Schumer is 75, stumbles while speaking, was hospitalized last year - he's not up to the job

Jon Stewart on Chuck Schumer: “Someone has to meet this moment. You have an opportunity to actually govern. One of the first things you need to do is remove that system of seniority from Democratic politics. It’s a bullshit system and it needs to go. Chuck Schumer fought tooth and nail against half of these fucking people. He does not understand the urgency of the moment and what the future demands”

Let me get this straight: DSA House candidates had a higher win percentage than non-DSA House candidates, but the guys who think victory margins are more important are the "all that matters is winning" guys?
