    Trump has an $850 million total war chest, anchored by $403.4 million in cash on hand. We can’t match the dollars but we will sprint to winning at a discount because of you,

  5. Insurgent Candidate Victories Highlight Growing Movement Against #Corporate & #Elite Power: #JohnNichols

    #DemocracyNow, August 05, 2026

    Excerpt: "AMY GOODMAN: And let’s go to #WilliamLawrence of the #SunriseMovement

    JOHN NICHOLS: Yeah.

    AMY GOODMAN: — who we just mentioned, who won his primary, a co-founder of the Sunrise Movement, defeated two opponents to win the Democratic House primary in Michigan’s 7th District, focusing partly on what you just mentioned: #AIDatacenters . This is one of his ads.

    ' WILLIAM LAWRENCE: I’m #WillLawrence. And #TechBillionaires want to turn this whole field into a massive #datacenter that’ll jack up our energy bills and ruin our home values.

    RANDY: They put that in, it’s going to plummet the values. It’s an existential threat.

    WILLIAM LAWRENCE: I’m running for U.S. Congress because I’ve been afraid to stand up to corporate power. I’m backed by #BernieSanders, and I don’t take a dime from #CorporatePACs . '

    ANJALI KAMAT: And in Michigan’s 13th Congressional District, #DonavanMcKinney, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, has a narrow lead over Congressman Shri Thanedar. This is a part of one of McKinney’s ads.

    ' DONAVAN McKINNEY: #ShriThanedar and the same #billionaires supporting #DonaldTrump are spending millions lying to you. They know that in Congress, Shri fights for them. I will fight for us — lower costs, higher wages, #MedicareForAll . '

    ANJALI KAMAT: #AbbasAlawieh also won the Democratic primary for a seat in the Michigan state Senate. He was a co-founder of the #UncommittedMovement, which pushed for President Biden, and then Kamala Harris, to end U.S. support for Israel’s #WarOnGaza. This is Abbas speaking outside the DNC, the Democratic National Convention, in 2024, where the Uncommitted Movement pushed to include a #Palestinian voice at the convention.

    'ABBAS ALAWIEH: Here is the scandal, my friends. Here is the scandal. The scandal is that there are forces within #DemocraticParty leadership who do not want us to talk about #Palestinian #HumanRights. But that’s not sustainable. This is a watershed moment. '

    ANJALI KAMAT: John Nichols, can you talk about some of these other key races in Michigan and other states where progressives were challenging more establishment candidates, and just what you think is most important as a takeaway from yesterday’s primaries?

    JOHN NICHOLS: I sure can. I’m delighted to do it, because the fact of the matter is that our national media too often focuses on the top-line races and misses the real dynamic, which you start to recognize is when you go down-ballot and you look at contests for U.S. House seats and for legislative seats.

    And if you look in Michigan, what you’re seeing is, with Will Lawrence, an example of a real breakthrough win for a young candidate who ran a campaign on dynamic, fresh issues, including data centers. With #DonavanMcKinney, that’s still a close race. There are votes still to be counted there. But this is an incredible thing, because this is a candidate who didn’t have anywhere near the kind of money that his opponent did, and yet, with a real grassroots campaign on the ground there in Detroit and that region, ran very, very well.

    And if we move beyond Michigan and you look around the country, what you’re going to see is that Tuesday night was a very good night for insurgent candidacies and for outsiders. In the #Missouri governor’s race, what you saw was kind of a remarkable result. #CindyHolscher, who’s a state senator out there and came from the outside — she wasn’t backed by the sitting governor, she wasn’t backed by a lot of Democratic Party leaders, and yet she won her primary for governor. And she did it by talking, again, about data centers and making that a very central part of her campaign. We’re starting to see a thread here. "

  6. John Fetterman Punched Us in the Mouth

    On May 10, 2022, I published an article on this page under the headline "John Fetterman Will Punch You in the Mouth!" I meant it as tribute. I called him "what a Democrat used to be," a man "of the land, against the elite power, for the common good," and I welcomed him into my invented fraternity of "Big Uglies," the large, plain, unpressed men who do the country's heavy carrying. The year before, on my Human Meme podcast, in an episode called "The Great White Bridge as Throughline," I had floated him as a future Democratic President, with Keisha Lance Bottoms standing as his second. I believed the hoodie. I believed the shorts, the goatee, the 6'8" frame, the tattooed forearms, the whole costume of the steel-town avenger who, I assured you, "suffers no fools." Four years later I am here to take it back, in public, at length, because the recantation is owed, and because the autopsy of my error teaches more than the error did. […]

  7. 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 ? 🤔 foxnews.com/media/dsa-co-chair

  8. Asajew bomb 😬

    "#CNN anchor #ElexMichaelson raised eyebrows this week with his closing comment moderating a panel discussion on possible contenders in the 2028 #DemocraticParty presidential primary, offering his take on what might differentiate Sen. #JonOssoff (D-GA) from #Pennsylvania Gov. #JoshShapiro (D) – how #Jewish they “read” to voters.

    As the Tuesday evening conversation wound down, panelist and YouTuber #EricMessersmith argued, “But on the Jewish thing, because he is Jewish, he might be the #Democrat that can thread the needle. Because even though he’s Jewish, he’s very critical of the #Israeli government, very critical of #BenjaminNetanyahu. He has credibility on that issue. So it’s possible—I think he could fill that lane in between the two extremes of the #DemocraticParty.”

    #Michaelson then wrapped up the discussion, “Yeah, as a #Jew, some people read a little more Jewish than other people, and John Ossoff may not read as Jewish as Josh Shapiro does[...]"

  9. The suggestion that partisan #gerrymandering has nothing to do with race is fantastical. It ignores the defining role of #race & #racism in shaping partisan affiliation in the #US. For instance, the embrace of the #CivilRights movement by the national #DemocraticParty is, acc/to many historians, the main reason so many white Southerners became #Republicans in the second part of the 20th century, a phenomenon known as realignment.

  10. I like James #Talarico and I’m glad that he’s sounding the alarm about #Paxton. That said, I can support him and still lament that he is the one in the position to be sounding alarms right now and not Jasmine #Crockett.

    The #DemocraticParty has a sexism and racism problem that it’s done nothing to address. Talarico is fine, just not when compared to Crockett who has more experience, more concrete ideas, better education, is better spoken, is a better debater, the list goes on.

    He won back in March because he was seen as “more electable” than Crockett. Which part exactly? I mean let’s not beat around the bush here, say it out loud. People knew that the party was so sexist and racist that it let a fascism fanboy win the presidency instead of electing a Brown Woman. So instead of admitting the existence of those biases and working to address them, the only takeaway seems to have been “Don’t risk it, put the white guy at the head of the table.”

    I’m so frustrated. We might win #Texas and that’s important but so is us fixing our own issues and right now we’re still ignoring them.

    Critical self-reflection is a necessary part of pulling oneself out of a wreckage and prevent same mistakes. However, every time I bring this catastrophic #Biden's failure to successfully prosecute #Russia interference in 2016, followup on #Mueller, #Jan6, #fakeElectors, #Georgia election interference, #ClassifiedDocs…, a segment of the #DemocraticParty just goes up in arms.

    How is it possible to have SO. MANY. FAILURES. after #Obama & #Hillary knew about #Trump in 2016?

  16. #Ohio senior #senator #BernieMoreno has introduced the #Exclusive #Citizenship Act of 2025, which could be very troublesome for #American dual citizens, from #FirstLadyMelaniaTrump and her son Barron all the way down to my own little girl. While at present the bill is still just in committee, many are hoping it doesn't go further. More on the bill and my own thoughts in the video.
