"Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are architects of the crisis that allowed Trump's fascism to arise and succeed," argued one progressive organizer. "They have zero credibility to be leading the fights we face today."

House Democratic lawmakers reportedly used a closed-door meeting earlier this week to vent their frustrations with progressive advocacy groups that have been driving constituent calls and pressuring the party to act like a genuine opposition force in the face of the Trump administration’s authoritarian assault on federal agencies and key programs.

      It really pisses me off that the ONLY outreach I saw were requests for money. Hundreds of them (many may have been scams, not sure).

        The Democratic Party doesn’t get paid to win elections.

        It gets paid to run campaigns.

        The Republicans have decided that that is unreliable and have simply gone with open corruption.

      They have to raise money so they can spend money to raise money. Then they’ve raised twice as much money even though they only have half of it.
