I don't think the Dems have learned any lessons from the last time.

Because ultimately, “empowerment” as we’ve come to use and understand it means “making upper-middle-class professional women feel as though every decision they make is feminist and self-determined.” Everything from the razors we buy to the corner offices we command to the choice to drink two glasses of rosé with lunch is, when put through the prism of generalized “empowerment,” a positive and affirming decision that we make as women. We are “giving ourselves permission” to enjoy things, or ask for things, or buy things, because we’ve been so deeply deprived of that right, in the narrative of #empowerment.

The thing is, from where I’m sitting, the idea of encouraging a bunch of wealthy white women to go to Bergdorf’s and get themselves the power bag they earned so they can walk into the bank they work for and demand a raise doesn’t feel very much like overcoming some kind of systemic oppression, but that’s just what #empowerment has come to mean.

With the midterm elections fast approaching, progressive champion Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts has a warning for Democrats to stop catering to the wealthy elites if they want to recapture majorities in the House and Senate this year.

@AThousandYoung
thank you

I heard the expression "power of subpoena" several times today. That does not help our lives in Wisconsin.

Let's talk about lowering the cost of healthcare and creating a living wage for everyone. Jobs. Housing affordability. Decent public transit.

There is so much work to do. People need help.

Impeaching the Secretary of War does not create jobs or lower the cost of prescriptions.

It’s interesting how the last two years have shown the Trump administration to be within a hair’s breadth of full blown fascism, yet we once again see the worn-out cliche of the left needing to learn.

You can learn as much as you want, if someone still would vote for whatever resembles the Trump administration after these two years, it won’t change a thing.

If only the undecided voter would start to “learn” rather than care about who uses which bathroom.

It does, however, keep the US from murdering innocents.

well yes there is that.

I am not saying Hegseth and Kennedy don't have to go. They do. Along with Linda McMahon.

But in the next two years lets try to focus on the citizenry for a change. The job is representative. Let's focus on representing.
