Bill Clinton named an airport after Ronald Reagan, the guy who fired something like 10,000 FAA air traffic controllers for wanting to strike.

Biden told the rail road engineers who were almost literally begging to be treated like human beings they couldn't strike, here's more money you don't have any time to spend, and kiss my ass because "I am the pro-union" president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_United_States_railroad_labor_dispute

Newsom pushed through a age verification law. How can that work unless it is a national login page? Reddit, imgur, lemmy/piefed, and pretty much everything else would require a digital bouncer at the door because none of this is designed to keep a tiny fraction of the countries total population from being psychologically scared like all the rest of us have been.

Establishment Democrats have been enabling the Republicans for decades.

I'd rather they were Republicans than useless Democrats

Remember their names when they try to beg for a vote.

They're promising to screw you over

Fuck all of them. I hope they all get primaried to hell.

[–] sarcasticsunrise@lemmy.world 2 points 49 minutes ago (1 children)

Get got, Gottheimer. What a shithead

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 minutes ago

Yeah, not at all surprised to see him on the list tbh.

He's consistently on the wrong side of history whenever an opportunity presents itself.

He described himself as "socially liberal, fiscally conservative, and passionately centrist"

🤮🤮🤮

Primary hit list. They all need to go.

Every single one of them supports big corporations over people

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours ago

Bynum has been just a parade of milquetoast disappointment for OR5. I'm kind of surprised Gluesenkamp-Perez isn't on the list, maybe she's too conservative to count as a 'moderate dem'

"Vote blue no matter who!"

People are voting for blue candidates who promise to do good things and not do bad things.

"Over my dead body they are!"

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

There’s always a part of that phrase that gets left out

“Vote blue no matter who…. during the general election

Prior to that. Primary the hell out of anyone that isn’t progressive. Change the party from the bottom up. And guess what, you’re starting to see that actually happen and it scares the establishment. Let’s keep it going.

[–] stylusmobilus@aussie.zone 1 points 4 minutes ago

That’s actually started in a way.

Hilarious that candidates are being endorsed by the mayor of New York.

I know this is a hot take, but these are mostly in red states. Also, yesterday it was 15, so progress?

Nothing succeeds like the old strategy that didn't succeed.

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 9 points 4 hours ago

Democratic socialists are truly the greatest threat to our glorious nation if you ignore literally everything else.

[–] Dryad@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Oh look at that, they’re writing a strongly worded letter!

[–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 11 points 4 hours ago

They should write themselves a resignation letter for failing Americans
