The “shockwaves”:
In the Florida legislature, Angie Nixon has led the fight to lower costs for families and take on the rigged system. Now, she’s ready to take that fight to the U.S. Senate.
Congratulations, Angie! Onward to November.
-The DNC chair, literally “the party”

And got endorsed by the DNC chair last night after the primary, which is the only time the DNC should be endorsing anyone.

But billionaires are gonna keep trying to convince people Dems are in dissary and fighting progressives.
If he wins the November election, as he is expected to do in the conservative stronghold, Donalds would become the first Black governor in any southern US state.
So confident was Donalds of victory that his television advertisements in the weeks leading to the primary ignored his Republican challengers and focused on former Republican congressman David Jolly, who secured the Democratic party’s nomination on Tuesday
Sooooo…
trump thinks he can get a Black man elected Governor in the South…
Even when running against a white guy who was a Republican till Trump showed up?
Like, this is a “even if we win, we lose” moment, and I bet the Florida Dem.party put their thumbs on the scales for Jolly… But there’s no way Donalds wins in Florida. Too many trump supporters will never vote for a Black man, even with Trump’s endorsement. And since he’ll be top of ticket in florida, a lot of MAGA in florida will sit out and just not vote.
Fucking weird Republicans think this will work

That’s not going to change the price of fertilizer, growing your own is going to get expensive too.
Like, shit is accelerating the shortage, but it was happening anyways. And there’s legitimately no solution. There’s things we can do to mitigate it, but it’s just kicking the can down the road at this point.
Like, you know how people always said “we grow enough food, it’s a distribution problem”…
That’s not going to be true for much longer, the planet just can’t support anywhere near this amount of humans without fertilizer, and we’re running out. We need multiple kinds, and the ones we can “make” are made from finite resources.
Shits going to get rough, and gardens are not going to fix it.
It’s worse, he knows all he’s doing is depressing dem turnout.
He wants Republicans to win midterms so he can use that as justification to call for the DNC chair’s resignation and try to replace with a neoliberal who will fix the presidential primary.
The neoliberala have always been willing to hand elections to Republicans to stop progress, and they’re gonna keep trying it. They’ll give this midterm away just to slightly increase the odds of taking the DNC back before 2028 primary
He knows he will…
He’s just trying to depress his own party’s turnout because he’ll say if we ran neoliberal candidates and had a neoliberal DNC we’d have done better.
He won’t have a leadership position in February if Martin still has the DNC, and Jefferies would rather hand the government to trump for another two years than see progressives elect progressive congressional leadership.
The state’s three investor-owned utilities, Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas and Electric, aren’t in imminent financial danger and last year saw profits rise. But fire costs have contributed to Californians paying the second-highest electricity rates in the country, and lawmakers and Newsom’s office worry that if it becomes harder for utilities to borrow money those bills will continue to climb. The utilities together provide power for about three-quarters of the state.
Newsom and the lawmakers say utilities are held responsible for too much after a wildfire and that bad actors like hedge funds are taking advantage to get a cut. If another devastating wildfire triggers damages too high for a utility to pay, the potentially resulting bankruptcy would make it even harder for victims to collect.
Trickle down and too big to fail…
We’re fucked if it’s Newsome in 2028, because the incoming Dem president picks the DNC chair
And Newsom will take us back to neoliberals
Weird to see them act like that’s not political, or that it’s new to Gen z…

The problem was when Obama let us down then, too many people walked away thinking that somehow getting less involved in politics would somehow fix things.
To be clear the problem was Obama and his refusal to name a progressive DNC chair and just in general ignoring the party and leaving Hillary and her dirty money as the only option.
But voters need to respond to that shit by being more informed and voting even harder. Not by checking out of the political process
“Our 2028 nominee, whoever they are, will have to earn the support across the full breadth of America. Every region, every demographic, every generation,” Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin said in his opening remarks to committee members on Saturday. “No shortcuts. No coronation. You want to lead this party? Go earn it. Go and earn it.”
Everyone should.
Harris’ only advantage is name recognition, to keep that fresh she’ll keep “endorsing” literally everyone, just to keep her name in the headlines.
The only way she’ll stop, is if candidates start publicly rejecting her.
I understand candidates just wanting to ignore her, but we need politicians willing to see they don’t want her support.
Sorry bud, I gave you more than enough chances
I invite you to really think of the implications of your suggestion
Have you thought of googling something you didn’t know about instead of trying to walk down the entire path of why it’s a law?
https://thelawdictionary.org/article/what-is-a-police-welfare-check/
Weird that he wasn’t charged with that.
Again, it’s completely normal to charge and hold someone for a lesser charge that’s provable when they’re suspected of a more serious charge, that is honestly the norm in the American legal system…
You seem to be completely ignorant of how this all works. If you start asking questions you’ll learn more, most people will just give up because you’re trying to argue when you don’t know what you’re talking about
What does someone else gain by helping you understand something?
It’s not a joke, there’s a very plausible chance he’s dead, or seriously injured and not getting proper medical care.
If he’s dead, and the people around him are hiding it, then that is a very serious crime. If he’s seriously injured and not getting proper care, that’s elder abuse.
So when there’s a plausible chance, law enforcement can do a welfare check. They show up at the residence, and investigate.
Like, it’s a normal thing…
The reason I found a specific case in Kentucky like that, is to show that even just not reporting was a serious felony. The amount of bond is likely because that dude most likely killed his wife and that’s why he didn’t report her death, also that it involved him sending messages pretending to be her. With McConnell releasing public messages to his constituents, if those aren’t him it’s even more serious.
Tyler Hern was booked into the Campbell County Detention Center on $500,000 bond. He was charged with felony abuse of a corpse.
Maybe?
He was “sent home” but that’s likely a DC residence.
If he said he was in Kentucky, then Kentucky authorities can (and should) dona wellness check.
If he said he was in DC, then Kentucky would have to request DC authorities do it.
These democrats are humiliatingly weak.
A Governor only has authority in their state…
Shit ton of red states facing historic floods…
And Trump’s “emergency” is his ballroom…
Finally some truth in advertising…

The “shifting attitudes”:
Say climate change is a very big problem.” In 2016, it was 40%. It was 40%. Look where we are in 2026 — it’s 39%, it’s 39%.
Repeating the same number twice doesn’t make a 1% change a big deal…
It’s not one of the top three issues for voters right now.
Just like a 45 year old who just got his foot cut off doesn’t have “get my prostate checked” as a current medical health priority
It doesn’t mean he’s not worried about cancer, doesn’t mean he doesn’t think he needs checked.
But right now there’s other more pressing concerns.
I mean…
This has been in the news before, also his other daughter that lobbies for Facebook.
This isn’t a unique thing, neoliberals held the reigns for 30 years and they set their kids up in lots of cushy positions especially at tech companies
Neoliberals and tech bros have been in bed together since they agreed to claim the dotcom boom was somehow caused by tax cuts after it started
Love the “singular they”, but to clarify it’s one state House rep, she stopped caucusing with Dems 20 months ago, she’s retiring after this term, and has been pro trump for 6 years…
