for those who are confused as to why AOCIA, Zohran and the "squad" aren't trying to challenge AIPAC Shakur aka AIPAC Rocky aka Hakeem Jeffries but have instead endorsed him: the function of the pseudo-radical wing of the Democratic Party is to deceive the demo they want to be part of their voting base, basically people under 40, that they are welcome in the "coalition" and have real influence and power within in. In reality, they have none. The power is concentrated in the party elites, who are themselves handpicked puppets of the liberal wing of the US power elite, which is 100% Zionist, imperialist and neoliberal in conviction. They are, as George Carlin says, the owners. They own you. They own everything. Hakeem Jeffries is the embodiment of this, which is why he was the pre-chosen leader of the House, and why he handed over Middle-East policy to fanatical genocidal Zionist and fellow Jewish supremacist Jared Moskowitz before the midterms, meaning that it was already predetermined that Zionists and the Israel lobby would decide policy. So whenever you see AOCIA or Zohran doing insta videos with a whiteboard to launder AIPAC Shakur and by extension Jared Moskowitz and the Zionist power elite that runs the US empire, they are merely playing their part in the spectacle that is known as "American democracy". I hope you enjoy it.

Never depend on a Democrat to get something done
BREAKING: Thomas Massie’s resolution to impeach Pete Hegseth fails in the House 211-204, after 11 Democrats failed to show up for the vote. If those 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would have been impeached 215-211.

As AOC touts Jeffries, he gave a stunning preview of his leadership today, failing to whip the vote after promising a "hard yes" on Hegseth impeachment. 11 Dems were no-shows & the bid went down in flames. If Jeffries won't deliver on a "hard yes", imagine what lies ahead for Medicare for All, ending Citizen's United & blocking funds for war & genocide. Democrats are self-destructing as usual to serve their oligarch donors.
AOC on Leader Jeffries' bid for Speaker: "There is one candidate in this race, Hakeem Jeffries, and I think that everyone is far more concerned with what that leadership means, what it is promising, what it seeks to deliver"

Can you think of any other profession where you proudly and loudly admit your incompetence and failure at your primary responsibility and go on to get promoted?
I asked Hakeem Jeffries about attendance appearing decisive in the Pete Hegseth vote. (11 House Dems did not vote tonight.) He told me and reporters: "I haven't had a conversation with anyone on the floor team about what may or may not have happened in terms of the Hegseth resolution, but this is not the end of it. It's just the beginning."

House Democrats have won 258 seats and counting. This is the largest majority that any party has had this century. News of our demise was greatly exaggerated.

Republicans win races by 0.01% and stack their administration with fascist lunatics. Democrats win races by almost 30% and yet are obsessed with doing this insufferable bipartisan bullshit. It’s absolutely exhausting.

Just returned from West Bank. It is the worse Israeli violence against Palestinians that I’ve seen in 31 years. Settlers acting with vicious impunity while the @IDF stands by or protects the settlers. This level of violence, total erasures of Palestinian communities can’t go on

Why the fuck did 11 dems miss the Hegseth vote? Now impeachment is buried in committee. Nice job leading Jeffries.

Of all the depraved fucks in this administration, I’m looking forward to Rubio’s downfall the most. The guy’s the textbook definition of pure evil. Yes, Trump, Miller, Hegseth ..they’re all pure evil scum. But this scumbag simply chose evil as a career at the first opportunity.
SECRETARY RUBIO: Iran would love a deal. The problem is, the conditions they continue to place are absurd. They're not even serious. But that could change. Eventually, you have to eat.

President Trump is requesting an unprecedented $1.5 trillion for war in FY 2027. With that $250 billion increase from last year’s budget, we could instead: - Fully fund the EPA - Install solar panels on 3.5 million homes - Restore the electric vehicle tax credit - …and more!

Notice how liberals have no problem calling out “Christian Nationalism” meanwhile they believe you are antisemitic if you call out Zionism which is Jewish Nationalism Also Pete Hegseth is not a Christian Nationalist. He’s a Christian Zionist. What kind of nationalists swears loyalty to a state with different religion than them!? I’m so tired of Liberals playing dumb about this. 95% of the time they are criticizing “Christian Nationalism” they should be criticizing Christian Zionism

There are no progressives in the Democratic Party. Once they strap-on the (D) they start fucking you with it.
AOC: “Right now both of these races are uncontested — don’t be mad at me, I’m just reporting the facts.” Rep. @AOC clearly explains the speaker vote process, says nobody is challenging @RepJeffries and anyone who does would likely be banished to obscure committees. (If Jeffries is that vindictive it seems like even more of a reason someone should challenge him 😕)

Nearly a decade in and not a single legislative accomplishment to her name. Just her endorsing people who committed genocide while supporting war against Russia
🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING — Rep. AOC: “People think that I am less capable, less skilled, less knowing and less strategic than I am... and I also know a lot more than what people think.”

AOC is what *everyone* becomes who enters the Democratic Party machine: a weapon against genuine class struggle and anti-war politics. This is her throwing support behind AIPAC-owned Hakeem Jeffries. And she'll feed you a word salad to divert attention from her opportunism.
“More than a million people signed a petition asking @HouseDemocrats to not elect @RepJeffries speaker— will that carry weight?” @AOC reiterates that nobody is running against Jeffries, telling @JulianAndreone “it’s not a race right now” so 40+ Dems opposing is unlikely

Oh cool the @PhillyInquirer posted an editorial that has the exact same take as their other reporting which is the same as every AIPAC sponsored politician and also Israel. Nothing to see here!
