Rashida Tlaib censured.

Shameful, Democrats! She was clear that criticism of the Israeli government—which many Israelis have been criticizing—is not an antisemitic indictment of Israelis or Jews.

Seven state initiatives on abortion since Roe, four in red states. Abortion access has gone seven-for-seven.

HEY! ANTIFA!
HEY! COMMUNISTS!
HEY! SOCIALISTS!
HEY! RADICALS!

let's celebrate these electoral wins that look small to some of y'all, if not completely antithetical to your definition of radicalism.

why?

HARM REDUCTION IS POLITICAL WARFARE.

because it is a BFD for us, the targets of racist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic harm.

self-care —from the privacy of health care to the public sphere of voting— is an act of political warfare

so celebrate today's #electionday wins

No confirmation yet, but it certainly looks as though Democrats are about to regain the Virginia House just hours after retaining the Virginia Senate.

Glenn Youngkin was hoping for a big victory to launch his presidential campaign. Instead, his party lost the legislature.

@DebR Thank you ally now let's get to work and defeat Trump in 2024.👍

O-high-o

I was assuming this #election would be disappointing since only old people typically vote on odd years.

But the authoritarian populist right has really riled us normals and I AM HERE FOR IT!!

Did you know that you're allowed to be sad about children being killed? You don't even need to explain your political beliefs to justify why you are sad about children being killed. Some people on the internet may try to tell you otherwise, but they are what we call "not worth listening to".

@StillIRise1963
YOU know, but just emphasizing to anyone who doesn’t.

Yes, TFG campaigned for death AFTER the exoneration.

This is MAGA values that NYC just voted against.
This is a huge, and very satisfying win!

Want gun sanity? Vote for Democrats.

The only advantage of sitting next to a putz who watches Fox is seeing Democrats win.

"It is not lost on Yusef Salaam that, as he prepares to give his victory speech tonight for a seat representing Harlem on the New York City Council, former President Donald J. Trump is facing multiple criminal trials…“Karma is real and we have to remember that,” Salaam said."

Yusef Salaam, one of the members of the ‘Central Park 5,’ who later became known as the ‘Exonerated 5,’ has officially won the City Council District 9 seat in New York, NY. Salaam ran unopposed in the Harlem district after winning the Democratic primary election earlier this year in a landslide.

Republicans are doomed. Because no one wants what they want.

Democrat Brandon Sakbun--27-year-old former Army Ranger—wins Terre Haute mayoral race, beating four-term incumbent Republican Duke Bennett. @INDems Chairman Mike Schmuhl has compared him to Pete Buttigieg. (Buttigieg did not become mayor of South Bend until age 29.)
