Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

After a lengthy period of difficult reflection, I have reluctantly decided to endorse my own party’s nominee. Despite being overwhelmingly popular with voters, I will be extremely careful to frame my endorsement using bad faith language cribbed directly from their opponent’s attack ads

Boom: Hakeem Jeffries endorses Zohran Mamdani. About damn time.

Yawn.

Hakeem needs Mamdani more than Mamdani needs Hakeem at this point.

It's the only reason for the endorsement.

pretty funny that he waited just long enough for it to not matter anymore and also for it to damage the house minority leader completely forever

I am still utterly confused why it took them that long to endorse zorhan THIS close to early voting. Unlike some I don’t believe he should get primaryed but his leadership is certainly not inspiring.

What’s crazy is chuck Schumer is a such a pro status quo man he sent a literally fossil against a populist candidate. Even without knowing what we do now that’s crazy

Katelyn Boo-urns @katelynburns.com · 3d

so look... as much as we're all stuck in the 2016 dem primary (which was secretly a rerun of the 2008 primary) just a few days ago i was getting screamed at on this very app by Schumer democrats for criticizing Mill's age. it is simply not possible that a few days later i am running a Schumer dem op

Platner's flameout sucks, but Mills' age is still a liability. Nobody should be running for Senate in their 70s.

Some far-left folks are endorsing Graham Platner for senator in Maine. In the past, they've recommended great progressives like Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr, so why should we doubt them now?

Ngl, I’m tired of the navel gazing. Im not a Mainer so I have no dog in the fight but I say if he prevails he prevails.

But I’m fucking exhausted. Principles have seemed to lead us nowhere except facing extinction.

It’s not that surprising to me.

Dems can’t even condemn the murdering of thousands of brown kids, the wonderboy from California invites white supremacists on his podcast to talk about how weird trans people are…

I’m not holding my breath for anyone to have principles these days.

You need to understand at least before this recent controversy they didn’t endorse either is because they actually WANT to improve lives of their constituents instead maintaining the status quo. Really that simple.

Blazecap(backup in case the bird app goes down era) @blazecap.bsky.social · 12h

Nah graham platner supported Palestine when he was in high school. May not mean much now but to dems that unironically may be more disqualifying for them than the tattoos.

I honestly believe they would sooner officially endorse graham platner before Zohran. I seriously believe we need to have a conversation with how the weak democratic leadership is why Trump feels he can whatever he wants

Has Dem leadership grappled with how it’ll look if they end up endorsing Graham Platner but not Zohran Mamdani?
