#Denver #Colorado protestors did not let the country down outside the "What's Next" billionaire-backed Dem conference yesterday. These photos are from @rosetinted.vision on Ig and Sunrise Movement, a youth org. #Democrats

UPDATE: #Fetterman continues to threaten us with a good time. #Schumer #Senate #Democrats

#Democrats are having a billionaire-organized convention in #Denver #Colorado this weekend to discuss the future of the party. Yesterday bridge trolls welcomed Democrats to Denver with a banner that said "WELCOME DEMS - WE'RE WATCHING" and one that said "NO SCHUMER CORONATION." This was going on a few hours ago. Of course there's a lot of security around the convention, but there are also a lot of protestors out there already. #NoKings #50501movement

Sunrise Movemement, Denver DSA and other groups will be holding protests outside the convention tomorrow. #Colorado #NoKings #50501movement #Democrats #Schumer #Senate

“Gina Hinojosa has the power to scale back Operation Lone Star. She also has the opportunity, along with the other Democratic leadership, to end the enforcement of the 287(g) contracts. We already saw the mayor of Houston come out with the executive order to limit the police collaboration with ICE.” https://www.texasobserver.org/governor-hinojosa-break-up-dps-and-ice/#ICE #immigration #Texas #Democrats #news #police

Fantastic news. #Politics #Democrats #Democracy #Senate #Mississippi #ScottColom #US #USpol

In the new session, #Texas #Democrats will have the State House but not the Senate. And they aren't even waiting for the new session, much less a trifecta, to start slugging it out. They're rapid firing new bills that would improve life for everyone in their state so they can expose the cruelty and corruption of the #Republicans. Once again, southern Democrats are schooling the old national Democrats who think they're safe in their deep blue coastal districts. Texas Dems know how to fight.

"The 11 Democrats who were not present for the vote are: Julia Brownley (Calif.), Lou Correa (Calif.), Laura Gillen (NY), Steven Horsford (Nev.), Jonathan Jackson (Ill.), Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), Brittany Pettersen (Colo.), Melanie Stansbury (NM), Haley Stevens (Mich.), Marilyn Strickland (Wash.), and Frederica Wilson (Fla.). Correa is recovering from an undisclosed medical procedure and cannot travel." #Hegseth #Democrats #USpol

So after YOU delivered a Blue Tsumani walloping to the GOP and Trump, did they learn? Not really. They made Jim Jordan Minority speaker of the House. https://thehill.com/homenews/6211341-republicans-elect-jim-jordan-minority-leader/ A reminder he ignored (or covered up?) a hideous sex abuse scandal at OSU, which got brought up when he tried to be Speaker. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/oct/11/jim-jordan-house-speaker-ohio-state-wrestlers-abuse House Republicans banded together to derail attempts to impeach Pete Hegseth. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/11/10/us/hegseth-impeachment-vote-house So between these actions and Stephen Miller, looks like the GOP is all behind racism, war, and covering up sex abuse. So par for the course. Ready to make them pay even more in 2028? #uspol #democracy #epsteinclass #democrats #bluetsunami

The #Democrats are having a convention in Denver this week to decide the party's future-- after we already made it crystal clear what we want. #Denver protestors will not be found wanting. I'm already seeing the protest notices. #NoKings #Schumer #50501movement

Incoming House Member Don Leonard (D-OH) has asked for two preconditions before he votes for Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker: working for a Constitutional Amendment to end the Citizens United decision, and ending support for Israel and the war in Iran. In response, the party has told him to drop his demands, or else they will make his "life a living hell" and ensure he doesn't get reelected in 2028. These kind of threats have no place in a party that calls itself "Democratic". They are refusing the will of the majority of voters who brought them their new majority. Such threats need to be confronted or they will continue, just as in fascism. Progressives are tired of obstruction of popular policies by corporate Democrats like Jeffries. Call your Representative every day and tell them to oppose Jeffries for Speaker. Pass it on. We need to be each other's news media. https://www.denvergazette.com/2026/11/10/incoming-house-democrat-says-party-is-threatening-him/ #Democrats #SpeakeroftheHouse #Speaker #Jeffries #HakeemJeffries

Let's check in on some good news today! California Rep. Robert Garcia: ‘The days of us not fighting back are over’ - it's time to investigate Trump and company and he's not going to be intimidated by Trump's threats.

All due respect Sen. Chuck Schumer, it’s always about a team, not the vanity of “me”. You’re not the future, get out of the way. #Democrats #USA
