At least three Republicans will have prominent speaking roles this week, as the Harris campaign taps into opposition to Donald J. Trump from within his own party.
As I sit on AOC lying about Harris ‘working tirelessly towards a ceasefire’, the angrier I get. It’s not just a lie, it is complete historical and moral revisionism meant to cleanse Harris of any and all culpability in the genocide of the Palestinians.
Actually, I’m not able to because X is paywalled.
Nor do I care to read what some random on that shit platform has to say. If you have some actual reports from actual journalists that corroborate that Harris has done nothing, in contrast to the actual news reports I’ve offered, please share.
Ok… that’s a wholly unsubstantiated opinion from some random nobody. Is this a joke?

But there’s more.
AOC is ostensibly speaking to young progressives when she says this — meaning she is weaponizing that positionality to bring votes for a woman who’s done nothing but back Israel & its genocide.
And if Harris is ‘working tirelessly towards a ceasefire’ - then what has she been doing for the past ten months, as second in command?
What does Harris as VP have the power to do or not do…?
The Democrats are unwilling & unable to approach this contradiction because it dismantles Harris as a capable candidate.
Jayapal told me she had just spoken to Harris that day (Saturday) that I spoke to her. There is no ‘tireless work towards a ceasefire’ happening with Harris.
Who said anything about being conservative? Interesting to falsely equate leftism with self-defeatist pyrrhic victories though. I’m pretty far left; I just understand the nature of entropy.
I’m surprised you haven’t used the word pragmatic yet. It’s been nearly a decade since Dems and Hillary kept saying we need a pragmatic approach. We’re still not even getting crumbs at this point.
In fairness I was very close to using that word but figured I’d spare you… This time.
I agree the Clinton third way narrative pushed the Overton window and allowed conservatives to control the narrative for decades. I don’t view Kinzinger and the like speaking her to be that, however.
Here’s a thread about it if you actually care.

This helps me understand where you’re getting your information. Thanks.
Forgive me if I don’t give a flying fuck about what some “media critic” on “X” has to say.

Legit, how old are you? Ballpark at least.
Middle aged
Ah okay what a shame. Most go through this phase in their late teens and early twenties and then shortly after recognize the bigger picture.
