“The strategy didn't work” in a game of chicken means “I am the chicken.” Democrats see themselves as the party of the working class because of stuff that happened nearly 100 yrs ago at this point. To non-political observers (90% of voters), they are old, totally out of touch, and just don’t care.
In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago
Arianna Sofia Veraza and her parents were driving to Sam's Club for milk, eggs and diapers yesterday when they heard helicopters and horns blaring yesterday. They had turned around to leave when a federal agent pepper-sprayed them through a car window.

Dems continue to think voters will hold Trump/GOP accountable one magical day, but they just don't get that Americans 1) don't expect much from the federal government anyway after about 50 years of cuts at this point, and 2) don't trust Democrats to do anything better, and for good reason.

When the Conservative Party in Korea declared martial law, the Korean Democrats knew if they didn’t send them to hell there would be no opposition afterwards. And look at them. They’re taking the ex conservative president and ensuring he never breathes free ever again.

I think it's time for @workingfamilies.org and @demsocialists.bsky.social to run their own candidates.
If the Democratic Party stays on a path of appeasement and cowardice they will go extinct. Those of us who give a shit aren’t going to stand for this anymore.
If Dems go down this road I truly believe they will be replaced by another left/center left party. Dem voters are motivated by combatting injustice, not this triangulation bullshit. They will become like Pasok in Greece or PS in France.

Americans agree with Democrats on nearly every issue but Dems often lose because they don’t trust Democrats to fight for them. “They’re all the same.“ Nights like tonight are why.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

@barackobama.bsky.social Your party is about to torpedo your signature achievement, the only thing your party has done of lasting significance since FDR. Anything you have to say about that or do you just use your accounts to memorialize Dick Cheney?

I don't think it's cowardice. I think that they are OK with what the GOP is doing. The sooner folks reconcile with this, the better.

The ripple effects of the Trump admin’s destruction of US air travel will be devastating to business, mental health due to inability to see friends and family, international and domestic tourism… I would say American prestige but that’s long gone…

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Every “the right is in disarray” story is fake. Nick Fuentes is a mainstream republican and the party members “condemning” him are just running interference. Id bet money he will speak at the next national convention
Four years ago, far-right white male supremacist Nick Fuentes was deplatformed pretty much everywhere.

Now he's back with a vengeance—and the online right can't stop fighting over whether to condemn him or welcome him. My story: wapo.st/4nJbt4M
Far-right provocateur Nick Fuentes is triggering a MAGA civil war
Once barred from nearly every social media platform, Fuentes’s resurgence has driven a wedge through the conservative movement.
