I love to read and garden and craft and write and I love my family. And I will not quietly stand by while fascists try to take over.

Time for Chuck to step aside?

Apparently never.
Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

A vile country isn't a country that can't feed its children, a vile country is a country that *won't* feed its children.

In the last month, the FBI has charged players from two different leagues for roles in sports-betting scandals.

Either legalized gambling is exposing corruption that’s always been there.

Or it’s creating it.

Either answer is terrible for sports.

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Both parties need to die a violent, painful death.
I am afraid you did

In a functional party system, this kind of capitulation in the face of authoritarianism could mean the end of the Democratic Party.

In our system, it could mean the end of the two party system. Neither party can represent the pro-democracy majority. It's time for something new.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

We will be studied closely in the future.
They will study the genius of billionaires getting the poor to actually eat themselves and be happy about it at the same time.

We studied the poor eating cake. But at least we know how that ended.

I much prefer this map to the winner-takes-all one ( I really try my best to avoid describing places as "red" or "blue").

Much more precise and accurate this way.

The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.

If you have to accept that greed is human nature and we should organise around it, you also have to accept that people begging for food wanting to set fire to trillionaires is also human nature.

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.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
