No other liberal news outlets are covering this.
“Vote blue no matter who! Wait, no, not like that!”
So, I now know what dem scum is top of the list to get primaried
How about you leave. Like, what are y’all even fucking doing anymore? You guys are more unpopular than you ever have been and it’s literally your own fault.
Collecting their kickbacks.
They could become the traditional republicans with what their views are these days.
The DNC Dems are there to prevent a progressive party from forming. The DNC Dems are working together with the Reps to fight against the people of America for the rich oligarchs running the country.
We warned that this is what is going on before the last presidential election and before that. But people wouldn’t want to listen, instead defending “slow genocide” and “lesser of two evils” and other insane statements. Now they keep getting screwed as the DNC Dems understand that they will keep getting away with it.
They’ll just go Republican and cash in on their servitude to the rich
Here’s another one to primary. Get on it, America!
Vote blue no matter who, am I right?
In a general election, where the other possible office-winner is a literal fascist, yes.
Yes, and yet this guy is actively undermining the winners of the primaries…
That’s a stupid oversimplification to make it look like both sides are the same.
So I’ll call that an attempt of a false equivalence to discourage the opposition.
“…don’t want that in my party…”
Is this guy the new owner or something? I’ve never heard of him.

Ideally we should have four parties:
Progressive
Corporate Democrat
Corporate Republican
Batshit CrazyAs it stands now, the Batshit Crazies have taken over and the Progressives are disenfranchised.
Thanks. Most of the other news outlets are less sensational, focusing on his drawing parallels between Mamdani and Trump, as well as drawing lines between capitalism and socialism. He’s… not very progressive at all…

Batshit Crazy
The name lacks symmetry. How about “regressives”
Let’s make a deal, Tom. Get proportional representation, one of the variations of voting that fixes first past the post, legislate away citizens united, and have fair, publicly funded elections, and you can have the party you want.
“Capitalism has raised more people out of poverty than any other system in the history of the world. Create more innovation. Socialism has failed everywhere,” Suozzi said in the interview, which he even posted to his social media accounts.
Oh? Like social security, medicare, medicaid, public schooling, and stimulus packages? All socialist policies that make America work. But no, it must be the billionaires and billion dollar corporations.
This country would have broken before World War 1 if not for socialist policies that were enacted to save it from total collapse. And here we are at the precipice once again and this fuckweed is calling for everyone to abandon their parachute and commit a trust fall with the greediest most insubstantial people to have ever existed. AKA capitalists
I dare say, capitalism, by it’s very definition, has CREATED all poverty.
Thank you Tom Suozzi for outing yourself you fucking fuck.
The Democratic Party leadership and establishment is not there to help you. They are there to stop you. They are there to act as a honey trap to capture and neutralize progressive/leftist politicians and policies while the Republicans implement the authoritarian police state that the donors of both parties need to quell the inevitable rebellion that will occur once the general population fully realizes the existential crisis we are in.
Well, the good news is that we all know centrists will side with capital. The last step before fascism is almost always cowardly centrists trying and failing to maintain their shreds of status in a world they can’t understand because they lack a binding moral framework.
That’s actually the bad news, I guess. But at least we know it’s coming.
Does Tom Suozzi get to determine who joins the party? Sounds like he should leave the democratic party if he takes issue with what the party members clearly want.
Just go join the Republicans if you like them so much! Quit faking being on the left. Every Democrat save a select few are right of centre. Stop pandering to the idiots, work on fixing the mess of a country you e helped create or get the fuck outta the kitchen.
Primaries are where we can fight. Every DINO needs to be primaried, and we need to start fucking showing up to primaries. IIRC primary elections are voted in by only like 10-20% of eligible voters.
If the dems use skullduggery to avoid primaries, they are no longer ‘the lesser evil’ and the old blue-no-matter-who arguments do not apply anymore.
It’s not that deep. Give me a real choice in a primary.
No thanks, you go instead
