She’s currently the Dem Whip and is second in Dem Leadership to Jeffries.

Kathleen Clark will be Majority Leader in the fall.

Yeah, disagreement usually feels like intolerance when you ignore actual real life data and accept that rural American prejudices deserve respect, but other people’s existence less so.

Why don’t we point out that they have us addicted to oil and that oil companies are making billions off this?

Terrible idea. The GOP needs to own the pain they’ve caused. The people voted for it. If they give Dems credit for it, I’ll be amazed. Why don’t you try to get NIH back, or the money we are owed for tariffs, or all the dignity we’ve lost by this country’s embrace of fascism.

Pelosi clearly didn’t like AOC, but AOC is also still very young, has a good relationship with Jeffries and can make her own way.

“Schemed” — yeah. She didn’t appoint her to a committee. There was no scheme.

Nancy Pelosi’s real legacy is the pipeline of women running for office Nancy Pelosi’s legacy is the increased presence of women in politics, which she achieved by creating a pipeline for women to run and hold office, and by actively recruiting and funding women …

She didn’t just talk about it. She worked at it.

Again? Her legacy was overseeing a massive increase in the number of women in office, which I assume that you are just utterly ignorant of.

That’s hilariously stupid. Pelosi oversaw a massive increase in women voted into office because that’s what she believed in.

Who could know such an unknowable? It’s like when they say he was to the right of Reagan — and all you need to disprove that is reading what Reagan thought of him when he was Senator and opposed most of Reagan’s agenda.

He thinks it looks cool.

This probably hasn’t aged particularly well, but it’s pretty apt.

Stupid cosplay dipshit. I’m truly impressed that in a sea of smooth-brained billionaire sociopaths, this guy has so quickly become the absolute worst of the worst. The world would be an infinitely better place without a single one of them.

Hard agree. Hicks would do a loose 20 on woke and Lennon would be a Brexit crank.

I have very little doubt that Hicks, were he alive, would be a lot like Alex Jones is now. He’d be more on the smug Maher/Chappell level, but Jones-like too. He was super into his edgy intellect.

For literally any reason at any time. Backing his tariffs were as disastrous decision I’ve ever seen a union make.

Are you aware that the UAW didn’t have to support Trump at all?

Vino Volo has shockingly decent wine and they used to have this chickpea and sausage stew that was exceptional.

Ah. Well, we need good public health policy too. My mistake.

He was the head of HUD. He is pro housing. Steyer is just another billionaire gadfly with zero record and no actual electoral experience. I’d vote for him over a Republican, but not over an experienced Democrat.

The counter movement included UAW members.

UAW scabs broke, then Fain endorsed tariffs.

"Auto Workers for Trump 2024" ramps up counter-movement after UAW endorses Harris The union hosted a call Wednesday, during which members will hear what's at stake in November, the union's key issues, and how they're looking to win against the so-called "billionaire class."

Trump finds unexpected ally in auto union leader over tariffs UAW President Shawn Fain showed support for President Donald Trump's tariffs, which include 25% levies on automobiles and supporting parts.

He’s a two/faced rat.

Hahaha. It’s not even close to the same. Piker is a shit posting podcaster with mommy issues. Mamdani is a genuinely great politician who, again, just had Obama in for a photo-op. This reckless conflation between the two, while ignoring Mamdani’s overwhelming mainstream Democratic support is a tell.

The Teamsters and the UAW absolutely did. The UAW stabbed the Biden/Harris administration & campaign squarely in the back.

The best you could come up with to prove “centrist Democrats” are against Mamdani today was something from a year ago, before he was elected, in a story that leads with her apologizing for her stupidity.

No. But I know the difference between a primary and a general election. He’s a Democrat that won a contested primary and the party has almost entirely embraced him since he won. Hochul has been an ally. Jeffries endorsed him. No idea why people can’t accept that he’s popular with normal Dems.
