“U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has ordered officials to stop action on all Biden-era discretionary grants to build bike lanes and other ‘green infrastructure’ so the agency can review the project for possible removal.” 🤬

“What Sanders has been doing recently is highly instructive—and Democrats don’t need to be die-hard enthusiasts of his particular policy portfolio to extract the key lesson and act on it: Identify the victims of Trumpism, give them a voice, and get their stories told.”

Dictator or Tech Bro?

Which one is it? Let's find out! Brought to you by PostHog.

This is still the same guy who said #NotMeUs in 2020, but dropped out & endorsed/told us to vote for #Democrats no matter what like #JoeBiden & #KamalaHarris who've continued the problems since the era of #Neoliberalism / #Liberalism. He is a betrayer, not an ally. Or in fact he is an ally to #liberals as he is one #SocDem where he's not a #neoliberal who hate him like #HillaryClinton and more #DemocraticParty officials.

This is #BernieSanders who fucked us for a decade with his #dems allies!

“In the eight years since Sanders failed to become the nominee the first time, and the four years since he failed the second time, he has managed to push the party toward dramatic policy and rhetorical changes. The substance of the 2024 DNC is a testament as much to his political legacy as to the party’s actual presidents.”
