Another useless corporate dem. No surprises here, unfortunately.

he was appointed by PELOSI to be her replacement, while she takes a hands off approach.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 104 points 6 months ago

This should explain everything.

Jeffries is a representative of Israel; not America.

As useless as Eric Adams.

[-] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 93 points 6 months ago

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.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 84 points 6 months ago

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.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

Third way go away!

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.

Blasted.

Remember how primaries are the time for the left to disagree? Well, how now?

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 43 points 6 months ago

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.

[-] 474D@lemmy.world 12 points 6 months ago

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.

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 11 points 6 months ago

Trans people themselves are few. People who care about trans rights are not.

Jeffries is exactly why the public hates establishment democrats.

Jeffries would rather help republicans do all the fascism in the world rather than endorse somebody who criticized fascists actively doing a genocide.

[-] ceenote@lemmy.world 26 points 6 months ago

Turns out "Blue" meant Israel all along.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 6 months ago

I hate when they dont tell us what kind of slam was used. Chokeslam, bodyslam, alabama slam?

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.

[-] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 16 points 6 months ago

Mamdani is exactly what the Democrats need to win.
