I'm shocked. At tonight's meeting of the #SF #Democratic County Central Committee (DCCC), bylaws and Robert's Rules were tossed aside. A proxy was allowed to vote on multiple items, then retroactively rejected after public comment, and the absence was declared unexcused.

It got worse: a motion was made but never seconded on a particularly controversial resolution authored by the very member whose absence had just been declared unexcused. Instead of addressing it, the Chair permitted a second motion and called a vote before even asking for a second on the first.

This isn't how democratic procedure works. If the Democratic Party can't follow its own rules, why should anyone trust it?

On Tues, a panel of the US Court of Appeals for the #FourthCircuit temporarily blocked the ballot verification process that had been ordered by the #NorthCarolina State #SupremeCourt. Many of the ballots in
question come from #Democratic-leaning counties, so their removal could lead to the election being overturned.

Every single #republican MoC likely knew that #trump ’s picks were unqualified and corrupt. Every one. They supported them anyway and are lying about them every day.

Punish the #republican party for this by supporting their opponents in the #democratic Party. Support Blue at the state and federal level, #voteblue until the GOP finally loses its taste for Trump’s batshittery.

#Scotland's First Minister John #Swinney (#SNP) on his anti-far right summit- "If we are passive about this we run the risk that those #democratic systems will be eroded by the challenges that we face". It comes as polls suggest #ReformUK say might get their first #MSP next year (they claim they're not far right). Disgracefully, #Tory party say they won't attend

#Democratic Governor Tony Evers has successfully #increased school funding for the next 400 YEARS in #Wisconsin by crossing out a few numbers in a bill to change it from “2024–25” to “2425.”

The state #Supreme Court just upheld his right to do so.

We need to invest in new global partnerships that prioritise #peace, #ClimateAction & genuine #democratic engagement, free from the influence of regimes that no longer uphold these ideals. The path forward is #unity without compromise, #justice without exception & progress without permission from those who seek only to control. (3/3)

'Protesting' works in one #Democratic #environment
it does NOT work in one #fascist #State as #America is today.

#Americans in the past have entered the #war against the fascists

Today Americans can do better than 'protest'

'#DavidHogg, a controversial {he isn't} #DNC vice chair, is pledging to upend #Democratic #primaries by funding #candidates who will challenge “ineffective, asleep-at-the-wheel” #Democrats.

The move puts Hogg, the now 25-year-old who first gained national stature as an outspoken survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School {#Parkland} shooting, on a collision course with his own party and some Democratic House members.'

Social #democratic reformists like #BernieSanders exist to channel #workingclass anger back into the " #leftwing" of #capitalism.

I supported #Sanders in 2016 as a major step forward with the hope that he'd take the obvious opportunity to lead 10 Million out of the #DemocraticParty.

He refused.

- They helped him rise to power in 2016
- They gave his campaign workers dirt on Hillary
- They helped spread ridiculous #conspiracy theories like Pizzagate, which hurt the #Democratic campaign and gave a platform to #MAGA lunatics like Laura Loomer and Jack Posobiec
- They supported #January6th by spreading disinformation on social media
- They funded anti-#Biden and anti-#Ukraine digital diarrhea through Tenet Media
- They generated AI slop targeting Kamala #Harris and Tim #Walz
