And they put a 78 year old with esophageal cancer in charge.

Who the fuck are you talking about?

Hakeem Jeffries is 54 years old. He’s in charge of the Democratic Caucus. Pelosi has been retired for years. She has no power. AOC lost by 50 votes. There is no way Pelosi caused that. She was only included in the headline as clickbait to troll people.

[Supporters viewed AOC’s bid as a chance to revitalize Democratic strategy, calling the outcome a missed opportunity for the party.]

While it would be great to see AOC win this, the reporter is really overstating things in order to drive engagement. The House Oversight Committee has a limited area of responsibility, so how would AOC “revitalize Democratic strategy” in any general way? Why can’t AOC “revitalize Democratic strategy” in a general way without being head of this committee? Other Dems will either listen to her or they won’t.

No, I have not talked to all 131 people who voted against AOC. But unfortunately she would have needed 50 more votes to win. There is no way Pelosi caused AOC to lose. She is not the Speaker and has no power anymore. But the person who wrote this article knew that by including the word “Pelosi”, they could get more people to read the story.

I would advise people to find out how their own congressperson voted. And if they voted for the wrong person than call their office. You have just as much of a voice as Pelosi does.

The Democrats copied Republican talking points with COVID, Trans people, police brutality and funding, the border “crisis”

I don’t remember any of that happening.

a non-white woman running on the platform of “Back to 2016 Trump’s America”.

Treason Trump gave rich people and corporations a gigantic tax cut and raised taxes people making under 75k. Kamala was going to raise taxes on corporations and lower taxes on the middle classes. Tax rates are the #1 thing everyone should be focusing on because wealth inequality is the driver of almost all other problems.

Nobody cares what Pelosi wants. Her name was included in the title as clickbait trolling.

Pelosi is a fucking joke, and its insane that the democratic party bends over backwards to kiss the ass of a corpse that encapsulates all of their failings, rather than embrace young populists within the party.

Nobody cares what Pelosi thinks about anything. Nobody changed their vote because Pelosi called them. Her name was included in the title as a clickbait headline to troll people.

No one said a thing about taxes.

The politicians you were telling people not to vote for were the very same politicians stopping the GOP from increasing wealth inequality. Wealth inequality is the driver of all of our other problems.

There is no crime here. So there is no possibility of Cheney being charged with a crime, let alone convicted. This is a political stunt, like Biden’s “impeachment inquery”. Cheney is not worried that she could go to jail. She is legitimately mad about (1) the absurdity of it, and (2) she will have to waste her money on a lawyer.

The GOP is pretending that Treason Trump’s enshitification has already happened and the rule of law in America is already destroyed, purely because Treason Trump is embarrassed that he was caught and convicted of actual real crimes. But the basic protections are still in place. (1) a judge will dismiss any case that has no actual legal grounds. (2) lawyers can be permanently disbarred from bringing cases with no actual legal grounds, and (3) no 12 person random jury would convict when there is no actual crime.

The party can legally just ignore primary votes and name anyone for any spot in the general.

In the same way that the US government can just ignore its own Constitution without violating any international laws.

She is retired. Which means Pelosi didn’t “win” anything at all. She isn’t the Speaker. Clickbait headline to troll fools.

Wow thanks for posting

the high cost of living, housing and food was the factor that most influenced their vote.

So the high cost of living caused them to vote for Trump’s inflationary National Sales Tax and inflationary gigantic tax cuts for billionaires?

The Democratic party is an enemy of the American people, as much now as the Republican party always has been.

There is no reason any politician should ever listen to what you want or pay attention to you in any way. By treating politicians who raise taxes on the rich the same as politicians who lower taxes on the rich, you are literally encouraging politicians to lower taxes on the rich and increase wealth inequality.

Trump is a known pedo

What part of ““The court would have to basically tell the party that it couldn’t change [the neutrality rule]” did you not understand? They are clearly talking about rules changes here.

Okay but why is the media treating this as more important than every other murder? It’s not. That’s what people are mad about. If anything, it is less important, since the motivation is something that not a threat to the general public.

(Gen X voted for Trump at a higher rate than boomers)

That’s really sad because the younger someone is the more they are going to be fucked by the long term effects of Donald Trainwreck’s enshitification of everything. Nuclear proliferation from the new world disorder, global warming, hyperinflation of the national debt due to gigantic tax cuts for the billionaire elites, hollowing out democracy, normalization of corruption, normalization of routine dishonesty, huge economic inefficiencies that comes with wealth inequality, removal of previous rights like abortion, vast increase in government incompetency, etc

I think you will find Palestinian citizens agree with you on that point.

Yes. And the Israeli hostages.
