Blue No Matter Who?: Jeffries Slammed for 'Gutless' Refusal to Endorse Zohran Mamdani | Common Dreams
I hate when they dont tell us what kind of slam was used. Chokeslam, bodyslam, alabama slam?

Vote blue no matter who went out the window real quick.
Oh no, it’s still there. It will be trotted out the next time progressives get angry at another corporate candidate.
Breaking News: Jefferies a former corporate lawyer and current corporate stooge, doesn't like the idea of socialism! How fucking surprising......
If America wants a chance to avoid violent revolution, they really need to kick out any Democrat who has the stink of Thirdway politics about them.
Third way go away!
Petition to remove the Zionist terrorist:
https://www.change.org/p/remove-hakeem-jeffries-from-minority-leadership
there are dozens of us.
Liberals are Zionists, and things won't improve until the left like you realize it. Democrats are not your friends, they say what they need to get your votes, but they like Jeffries and the agree with him. Your petitions' numbers reflect that.
Another useless corporate dem. No surprises here, unfortunately.
he was appointed by PELOSI to be her replacement, while she takes a hands off approach.
This should explain everything.
Jeffries is a representative of Israel; not America.
As useless as Eric Adams.
The Dems really are showing their colors as the corporate-backed weasels that they are, and then wonder why their voters are sick of their shit.
When liberals tell me, a trans person, that I need to vote for militant transphobe Gavin Newsom after he's handed the 2028 Democratic primary victory, I'm going to tell them to shove it up their ass.
All I’m going to say is, in the general election, don’t do what many protestors of the war in Gaza did because that did become a deciding factor in giving Trump Michigan.
This is a flawed understanding. Many of the Arab voters in Michigan were not solid Democrats to begin with. Unlike the racist notion that brown skin means Democratic votes, the people inside that skin have a range of views, just like any human. Just pointing at the other side and saying it's worse fails when voters didn't think the other side is worse. The party has to win their votes, and aiding the war machine massacring their relatives is for some reason a poor way to do that.
Shove it up your ass.
Anti occupation and genocide people didn't make Harris lose , dems and Harris incompetency and the two party system made trump win
There's no nice way to say this, so mods delete if necessary. It's an election about numbers and progressives will now have to be recognized after the last loss and the success of Mamdani. That is some progress. But the issues of trans people will not be a deciding factor due to the ratio. I hope you get all the care and rights you deserve, but this doesn't sway the vote against literal dictatorship.
How is Newsom transphobic? Aside from his stance on trans athletes, I've never really heard anything on him to suggest otherwise, quite the opposite honestly.
This isn't about sports and it never was. Turns out when you're willing to give in to one aspect of unscientific bigotry (the trans sports moral panic), you'll be willing to give into others. And yes, opposing trans athletes in sports is fundamentally transphobic. Notice you never see transphobes like Newsom proposing narrowly targeted regulations that only address sports where some large and clear advantage has been proven. You never see transphobes like Newsom proposing that trans athletes in individual sports be given some handicap that would cancel out an advantage they've been scientifically proven to have. Instead it's all bigoted blanket bans that are no different from bans that used to exclude black people from whites-only leagues. They never start from a position of fairness and compassion and try to intervene as little as necessary. It's all about just keeping the filthy trannies out of polite society. These bans prohibit trans women from women's gymnastics, for fuck's sake. So yes, if you support blanket trans sports bans, you are a transphobic bigot. I'm sorry, but you can't just hand waive it away with, "well aside from this example of unambiguous bigotry, I don't see any bigotry here." You might as well be saying, "well aside from this person being a registered member of the KKK, I don't see any evidence that this person is racist."

Ah yes, putting his transphobic af stance aside and going "oh yea by removing transphobia, he's not transphobic"
Blasted.
Remember how primaries are the time for the left to disagree? Well, how now?
"And break our losing streak?!"
Turns out "Blue" meant Israel all along.
Establishment Dems simply want to co-parent America with reactionaries. There is no vision, only donors. When MAGA is over, going back to this is not going to be acceptable.
He's better than a republican, and he better be getting primaried.
Mamdani is a great candidate and he only seems to get shallow or dishonest criticism. When he talks policy it's straight forward, sensible and makes economic sense, but his critics talk about him like he's chairman Mao. Totally out of proportion and probably has a lot to do with corporate finance in politics and the DNC specifically.
