if certain white Democrats do not pull their sh¡t together, all this wild, unfettered misogyny, misogynoir, racism & anti-Semitism they're fostering among themselves & non-Black POC will make the party unelectable ahead of 2028

When I first saw Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? I thought George and Martha the hippos were named after the main characters of that play. https://t.co/cGZDvrjNh8

James Marshall’s “George and Martha” books are witty and complex in their depictions of transformative friendship.

The Far Left's silence on the destruction of USAID is proof that their views on "US imperialism" or whatever their bogeyman is are utterly without merit.
I like that she talked about the thousands and thousands of lives lost because of USAID cuts. Not enough people are talking about it, our activist class is weirdly silent on this issue for some reason

How Dems handle the optics around Crockett’s bid may prove critical for Black mobilization in 2026 & 2028. Black people WANT to see Black reps & Black people’s views toward the Party were changing w/Harris as the leader. How Black candidates are treated will make a difference.
why are these two races getting drastically different coverage despite being nearly identical situations? - very vocal against their opposition - sharp and strong in their positions - past controversial statements - Women - running in red states i think i know why...

So not only is the SAVE plan being gotten rid of the other plans that already existed to give people more affordable options are being phased out by 2028, this was included in the so called "big beautiful bill". Stuff like this happens and folks will say there's no difference
🚨 BREAKING: The Education Department announced an agreement on Tuesday to officially kill the SAVE plan, with major consequences anticipated for borrowers.

Former SG @DouglasEmhoff still in the fight against antisemitism. “He filed an amicus brief supporting a California bill that will create antisemitism trainings for educators & create a statewide antisemitism prevention coordinator, in the face of a legal challenge.” @GSDeutch

I’ve been noticing this for a while now and I think what’s at play here is a portion of white liberals, pod bros, poll bros, and left leaning pundits are going through an anti-Black, anti-DEI, anti-“woke” evolution similar to their white MAGA counterparts, but instead of outward

@BookerGWash The way some white people *on our side* are behaving right now makes me think they have spent the last years *actively ignoring* Black Democrats, especially Black women & I find this astonishing. The racism is so strong it's blinding people to basic political dynamics.

If you're a White man, hating on Jasmine Crockett is part of the application process for the Christmas Adventurers Club.

The whole Jasmine Crockett taking AIPAC money lie, twisting her words on the Israel/US relationship in the name of “accountability” just proves what we have always known. The purity brigade loves you until you try to elevate and then they will gladly tear you down. Never fails.

Just stumbled across this but am RTing because Joanna Gleason is a longtime family friend and she is TERRIFYING as Dirk Diggler’s mom.
A few years ago, I wrote a piece on unheralded performances from PTA's filmography and Gleason's monstrous mother from BOOGIE NIGHTS topped the list. In two scenes, she turns the film into a domestic abuse horror. I should update the list after OBAA. https://t.co/Cmv9tMUMeg

This is not the most of my issues with Nia DaCosta's script for of Hedda but I want to know why she cut the final line of the play. It's like doing Streetcar and cutting "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers."

KHive = Supporters of Kamala Harris KHive ≠ Supporters of (insert nominee) When you all attack Khive as a substitute for Black/ non POC Dems who support a given candidate you are revealing your racism.

A dominant narrative, pushed by many influential people was that it was necessary to elect Trump because Free Speech.
New WSJ reporting: "During a December visit to Washington, David Ellison offered assurances to Trump administration officials that if he bought Warner, he'd make sweeping changes to CNN, a common target of President Trump's ire, people familiar with the matter said. Trump has

A bunch of losers are using KHive as a slur and think identity politics means being a Black woman.

I’ll agree with @jonfavs for once: nobody on Twitter can say much with certainty but it’s not helpful to Democrats to call a race over before the primary is even settled. Further, I find the relative scrutiny of Crockett’s chances compared to say, Platner, a little misogynist.
Just wild that, a decade into the Trump Era, people on here remain absolutely confident in their electoral predictions - even about primaries that are still months away!
