Blame the state party for Harris’ uninspiring showing in N.J. | Opinion

While Dem strategists continue blaming progressives for Election Day, I'm blaming state and local party chairs who chose to build power for themselves at everyone else's expense. It's time for everyone at the NJDSC to resign or be removed.

Tahesha Way was a consequential Lt. Governor after all 😌
AIPAC and the New Jersey machine spent a staggering amount against a moderate liberal who they felt had personally slighted them and just succeeded in clearing him out of the way of the movement progressive in the race. I want to send them a thank-you card.

And actually, it's an even BIGGER disaster, as Analilia Mejia, the most progressive candidate in the race, may have stunned the field. I am shocked but not that shocked, because I called it today:

today's New Jersey primary is all about the collapse of the Dem party's mighty machine in NJ — their candidate is coming in 4th.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

America is fucked long-term that so many voters cannot accurately absorb factual information.
This pro-Trump nostalgia absolutely was confirmed over and over again by the Dems' own internal polling, in a truly horrifying way:

look, say what you want about Katie Britt - that she's a fascist, that she's enabling the mass destruction of families, that she's running cover for crimes against children on an unfathomable scale - but you can't say she doesn't have a great team of flacks
I'm sorry but this story is bullsh*t. Katie Britt was so worried about Liam Ramos that she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO HELP HIM? Come on. This section right here shows Britt's true self.

wow -- with Trump standing behind him, a man (not sure who he is) offers this prayer: "We pray that he would be mindful of the poor and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering happening in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."
