Her glow up after smartening up and kissing mama bear ring has been amazing.

And some others should take heed of what Michelle said about being on a constant search for perfection and a desire to tear down those who don’t reach it lots of gems dropped by them both

Most progressives been on that wave. That’s why we held our noses and voted for Hillary and the Dotard.

 

[CrimsonTider]

Yeah

That’s been approach at critiquing Obama. He had genuine ghouls in his administration like Geithner who demanded mass foreclosures and the stimulus not being big enough

People esp boomers don’t want to hear it.

But they know it’s true

Y’all don’t get it, y’all really dont

No one that admires Biden or thinks he was a great president believes he was perfect

And criticizing Obama doesn’t make you astute.

No matter what y’all think Obama did wrong he raised the floor from what Bush Jr and Trump did and that’s all that matters

Hmm I guess she misspoke or was talking to the wall with that line

I wonder if it’s a result of younger generations being told how talented and gifted they are most of their lives. It’s really hardwired into people that they could’ve done xyz better no matter how illogical that is.

 

[br82186]

You guys sound like republicans do when Trump has a good line lol. DNC and RNC are nationally televised propoganda.

Barrack Obama is still a p*ssy who didn't do shyt when he had power. He shoulda talked like that when they stole a supreme court pick from him.

Ayo take that noise to the TLR

Yeah it's basically impossible to have a discussion with these people about his actual policies and how they contributed to the expansion of the racial wealth gap during his years in office or the decimation of the Democratic Party under his watch, and ultimately how his tenure led to MAGA and Trump taking hold. In my experience people just respond by juelzing about how the facts cannot be true and engaging in parasocial celebrity worship of Obama. They can't tell you a single detail of his economic recovery policies or what his administration did during the housing crisis, they just want to believe he's the messiah because in many ways he is the apotheosis of neoliberal ideology.

Bill Nunn said a crazy line in School Daze and it was "there are times where you can speak, and there are times where you need to shut the fcck up". In AOC's case she needed to shut the fcck up in regards to that. Hell even Bernie chilled because he knew what was up.

AOC's DNC Speech Was a Betrayal of the Gaza Movement

Her only reference to Gaza was a line in which she credited Harris with “working tirelessly to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and bring the hostages home.” The moment was quickly clipped and posted to TikTok by the Harris campaign—a clear attempt to use one of the most popular young, left-wing politicians in the country to win over younger, left-leaning voters concerned about Gaza. “ @Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,” the campaign account commented.

But Ocasio-Cortez’s statement was simply not true. There have been no indications that Harris is playing a central role in any ceasefire negotiations. And there is mounting evidence that those negotiations are more fantasy than reality.

Moreover, while Harris may have called for a ceasefire, the actions of the Biden-Harris administration have consistently enabled genocide. Just last week, as famine in Gaza continued and the reported Palestinian death toll rose to over 40,000, the Biden-Harris administration approved an additional $20 billion in military aid for Israel. The administration has placed practically no limits on acceptable behavior for the Israeli regime and has used stronger language to condemn campus protesters than the blood-soaked Netanyahu government. Harris has not distanced herself from any of these decisions.

Given that reality, any Democratic politician who claims this administration is meaningfully working to end this conflict is either misinformed or lying.

It would have been galling to see anyone engage in this fiction. But to see Ocasio-Cortez—a movement politician and a self-described democratic socialist—do so was a genuine blow. Worse: it was an outright betrayal.

...

Even Joe Biden went further than Ocasio-Cortez by saying that the protesters “have a point.” Ocasio-Cortez didn’t mention the protests at all. To be outflanked by Biden in that way was outright embarrassing.

Now that's how you do a roll call

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

Some of our Blue Shirt friends might want to take heed of what Barack said last night about how to treat people with grace even if they don’t agree with you 100%.

But if we can't punch down, gaslight, and smear the left based off our own misperceptions and needs of convenience, how will we ever survive inside our hermetically sealed online echo chambers?

That’s why I hate the blue shirts and they are a scourge on society. Oh wait am I doing what we just said we shouldn’t be this is harder than it sounds
