Backlash After Hakeem Jeffries Holds Private Meeting With Jared Kushner Ahead of Midterms
2 months ago by sanitation to c/politics
Why Are Wes Moore and Cory Booker in Peter Thiel’s Secret Society?
I assumed it was because they were also of the pedophile persuasion. But I guess it could be because they are happy to be technofascists for the right price.
Unfortunately society is full of "politically slow" people who either don't pay attention, are subject to extra propanagda, or just slow to cotton on... And they sort of screw things up for everyone.
I mean, there are still Trump supporters out there.
It's because a long time ago those in power realized they can literally create more of those politically slow people on purpose, by starving them of education and feeding them nonstop propaganda about never looking behind the curtain.
Now they have a dumb, submissive electorate that can't stop electing them even if they wanted to. We're trapped, and we'll have to gnaw our own leg off to get out.
a relatively small number of dems in the house and senate can call for a dem-party-only vote to elect a new leader in their chamber. But that vote never gets called for. That tells me that Schumer and Jeffries are part of a much larger problem within the party. If we get rid of Schumer and Jeffries the corpo-dems will just put forth another. They are already positioning Slotkin to take over for Schumer. She's a hardcore zionist who is on the pro business caucus and is proudly a blue dog. A good days work for her is signing her name on a bill thats also supported by republicans. Also known as being a traitor to her party.
"...proudly a blue dog"
So a Republican with a 'D' next to their name.
With the nature of media it's not hard to notice that 2-3 democratic-socialists get elected to office nation-wide and the establishment wants to act like all problems are solved, even though there are still several-hundred more corpo Democrats that need to be replaced across the country.
🤣 🤣 😭
These idiot moderate Democrats can't seem to stop snatching defeat from the jaws of victory time and time and time again. These abject failures at leadership can never seem to read the god damn room.
And the member of the Democratic party keep electing these morons in and appointing them to leadership.
I think this is at least part of why DSA candidates seem to be winning.
A lot of people don’t trust anyone currently in politics and for good reason.
Did you miss the "no matter who" part of their mission statement?
No, I fully got the neoliberal will suck off any corpo-fascist no matter who for that sweet money.
This dude is trying to lose his seat
That makes perfect sense and is also really dumb. whoever replaces him is guaranteed not to be as flexible as Jeffries. Maybe he has no utility to the trumps given people are politically activated now?
Time to bring back ostracism.
I mean old school 'GTFO, we'll hold onto your shit for you, leave with nothing, go drift for 10 years and we'll see how it goes if you make it back' ostracism.
Perfect solution for useless politicians, and an appropriate reward for becoming a billionaire.
I would never want to prevent democrats the right to vote how they want. Yet I am not allowed to vote how I want, while still being able to transfer my vote to them if my first pick didnt win?
Democrats understand First-past-the-post voting is anti democratic in nature, and refuse to fix the issue between elections. while also using the flaws of the voting system as a club to senselessly beat anyone who strays from the group think they subscribe to. An abusive relationship IMO.
Let's put 3rd party voter's innate desire for suffrage behind us for a moment to continue on. First-past-the-post voting ensures the country only gets one real chance to defeat the republicans. Dont you all want more chances to beat the Republicans? What if the democrats have another "bad election season", shouldnt we want more options to choose from? More chances for the country to win as a whole against the republicans? If the republicans are a existential threat as the democrats say, shouldnt they be calling for backup?
Perhaps the democrats maintaining their power and control is more important then stopping Trump and the republicans. Sorry blue conservatives, the United States of America is more important then the Democratic Party.
If it's Kushner you're dealing with, Putin might as well be in the room.
This simply shows nobody holds Trump or Putin to any standard.
I have the remarkable ability to never let go of anything.
Well if AOC thinks its a great idea maybe we should all go prostrate ourselves in front of kushner, right? Only dont get to close to him, Kushner was listed in the Epstein files.
/s (about the prostrating only. Kushner being in the Epstein files is no joke)
Sure there is. Dems roll over way faster
Folks downvote this shit, even as Dems like Cuellar and Cuomo receive explicit support - even criminal pardons - from the Trump Administration.
That's because AOC, Bernie, Mamdani, etc. are all democrats. It's a huge party in a huge country.
If parts of your party are aligned with the opposition party, what kind of organization are we dealing with?
If the leadership of the party is in a negotiated surrender with the son in law of the opposition president, what is going on?
You are vaguely trying to say something, what is it exactly?
Its almost like there should be more then two viable political parties!
Holy fucking shit I feel like I either am taking crazy pills or I should be taking crazy pills and I aint.
Sadly not a reality in a winner-take-all two party system without ranked-choice voting.
I don't remember establishment Dems raiding on Jan 6.
Yes both Republicans and establishment Dems suck, but they are not the same. That's like saying Dahmer and Hitler have no differences because they both killed people.

Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are the Dems' neverending rolling disaster. They need to be ousted.
And while they're at it, they should throw out those two other double-crossing motherfuckers too.
