>> sure both parties are bad. But I hate #Trump, and I voted #Democrat… No, they are both just fronts for Big Money. Between them, they corner most of the ideological bents…
💯 I have a whole series of examples tagged with #bipartisanGrift, complicity, & connivance with a tagline "NOTHING that is currently happening in the #UnitedStates would be possible without the #complicity and #connivance of the #DemocraticParty and elected #Democrats"

"[U]nlike the Uncommitted Movement of 2024—which sought to use their leverage as voters to pressure the Biden, and ultimately Harris, campaign into adopting the both morally and politically correct position of ending support for genocide—the emerging Centrist Uncommitted movement is animated, in large part, by their support for genocide and lockstep support for #Israel." - #AdamJohnson

The policies of the #DemocraticSocialists of America #DSA don’t look anything like the Democratic Socialist governments in #Scandinavia. Not counting the brief period that the Karelian Autonomous #Soviet #Socialist Republic existed in what is now #Finland after the #Bolshevik Revolution in #Russia.
Is #MeganRomer funded by #Project2025 to create chaos in the #DemocraticParty before the #2026election ? 🤔 https://www.foxnews.com/media/dsa-co-chair-mocked-proudly-confirming-socialists-want-abolish-senate-national-borders-prisons

Democratic Socialists and Establishment Democrats Debate Party's Future Strategy

"When #JamieIsaacson received an application in his mailbox earlier this month to help choose the #Maine #DemocraticParty’s next #US #Senate #nominee at Saturday’s #nominatingconvention, he wasn’t interested.
If accepted as a delegate, #Isaacson, a 72-year-old #Jewish #Portland resident, would have joined 601 Maine #Democrats at the party’s convention in #Bangor to select a replacement for #GrahamPlatner, the staunch #Israel critic who bowed out of the race earlier this month following #sexualassault allegations, which he has denied.
Instead, Isaacson sat it out, vowing not to have anything to do with the party that had chosen #Platner as its nominee in the first place.
“I thought it wasn’t worth my time, to be honest with you,” Isaacson told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. “I mean, we’ve been blindsided by the #Democratic Party here and nationally, and I’ve been a #Democrat my whole life.”

There is a lesson that #DNC and #DemocraticParty can learn from #Brexit votes 10 years apart.
It's the younger generation that you need to seek and cultivate.
So get off the #bipartisanGrift train and seniority #entitlement in the Party and look for fresh blood, all of which is anathema to the establishment #Democrats who like to connive and be complicit with #Republicans just to get the grift going.

CW: USPol / US politics
So six Democratic congresscritters crossed the aisle to pass the latest defence spending bill - not that unusual, given their swing districts and being up for election - but they did so with the "SAVE" act attached to it.
Apparently, they have all the self-preservation instinct of the mythical #lemmings from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Fabrication. Because the entire point of the #SAVE act is to disenfranchise as many Democratic-leaning voters as possible. This isn't speculation; it's easy to read in the measures that it calls for, but more than that, #Trump has explicitly described it that way over the last few months.
The #Democrats frequently do not need the #GOP to ratf*ck them [1]; as here, they're quite capable of doing it to themselves.
Everyone who cares about preserving #US democracy, such as it is, needs to yell at their #senators to ensure this monstrosity doesn't pass in the Senate. There's been lots of talk of it not having the votes there, but that was said about other things that (eventually) got passed as well.
[1] Don't blame me for the language. A US president brought the term into wide use.

@rockom.bsky.social honestly I don't think policy is the answer. It's fight. They need to show some fight rather than just cower at every new development. I mean it's not like Mamdani and Talarico have some magic spell. Do popular stuff and dare them to take you to court. Just f'ing do ANYTHING and then TELL EVERYONE. Be proud! Show joy that you are doing it! #DemocraticParty establishment feel free to write me a seven-figure check for this wisdom. Oh, wait, you're broke.

This is why #AIPAC contributions to #Democrats are so damaging - And why silence from the #DemocraticLeadership (leadership?) on the continued abuses of this sort so damages voter turnout for Dems nationwide.

#JayME #datacenter developer sought to give Janet Mills ‘cover’ for key veto, emails show
Emails obtained by the BDN show a developer solicited local letters of support to give Gov. Janet Mills “cover” for her veto of a statewide #DataCenterBan.
By Daniel O'Connor
Published on: July 6, 2026"Emails obtained by the BDN show a developer solicited local letters of support to give Gov. Janet Mills 'cover' for her veto of a statewide data center ban.
"Gov. Janet Mills’ office worked closely with the developer behind a stalled Jay data center project who solicited local letters of support that would give her 'cover' to veto a statewide data center ban, according to emails obtained by the Bangor Daily News.
"The April veto killed what would have been the first statewide ban on new data centers in the country that would have lasted until late 2027, a politically risky move for Mills that came days before she ended her Democratic U.S. Senate primary. Her office had been laying the groundwork to protect the Jay project for weeks before she announced the decision.
"Emails obtained in a public records request from the town of Jay show Mills had concerns about the ban’s effect on the project since at least late March, more than a month before she killed the measure. The project her veto was meant to protect has since stalled anyway, with its would-be operator pulling out in June and prompting criticism of Mills from progressive backers of the ban.
"#TonyMcDonald, a real estate developer with the Portland-based #BoulosCompany leading the project, solicited support for the veto from Jay officials and, later, a labor union with a stake in the project. The emails show that Mills had doubts about the bill over the Jay project since at least late March, more than a month before she ultimately killed it."

If your local/state representative (or candidate for office) says they have changed their position regarding ICE, LGBTQ rights, BIPOC rights, fascism, etc. Or if they even say that they are re-evaluating their position.
Look them up in https://www.opensecrets.org to see who they are getting the majority of their contributions from.
That will tell you if they are full of shit or not.
The odds are stacked heavily in the full of shit category. Giving up money and power in order to do the right thing just doesn't compute with career politicians.

The always sensible Michelle Goldberg rightly points out that Democrats who want radical change can't allow their frustration with the Democratic establishment make them heedless of credible warnings about a candidate's unfitness.
The deeper problem, though, lies in the atrophy of the union and local party organizations that might have supplied possible candidates who would be both in touch with working class lives and able to promote left politics.
This atrophy is a problem for the Democrats nationally. It can't be solved quickly, but in the meantime the Platner disaster shows how strategists trawling the country for gruff guys in hats and hoodies is not the way to find good progressive candidates.
As for Platner himself -- please shut up and go away.

La prise de conscience est lente mais sûre. Les électeurs démocrates sont en train de lâcher Israhell aux US.
Restent les élus et dirigeants du parti, qui soutiennent toujours majoritairement. Hélas. Une des pires étant Clinton, cette hystérique pro Israhell> ❗️Growing divide as 30 percent of US Jews label Israeli war on Gaza genocide
A newly released survey by the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research reveals a seismic shift in US public opinion regarding the war in Gaza. Nearly one-third of all US adults, including an unprecedented 30 percent of US Jews and roughly half of all Democrats, now state that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians. This collapsing narrative marks a critical fracture in the decades-long consensus that has historically shielded Israel from domestic political backlash.
The data exposes an accelerating rift within the Democratic Party, where the disconnect between the Washington establishment and its voting base has reached a breaking point. According to the AP-NORC findings, 58 percent of Democrats now believe the US is too supportive of Israel, a sentiment shared by a 51 percent majority of Jewish Democrats. Concurrently, 62 percent of party voters insist that Washington is failing to provide adequate support to the Palestinian population.
This ideological realignment is particularly striking among older demographics who were once considered the bedrock of pro-Israel sentiment. The poll notes that 57 percent of Democrats over the age of 45 now demand that the US government do more to support Palestinians, a massive spike from just 39 percent recorded two years earlier. As grassroots alienation deepens, the unconditional backing provided by the White House faces a looming legitimacy crisis at home.
