Thinking of the hundreds of mostly young mostly not very well paid people working long days to make sure Mike Rogers does not come back to the Senate. Grateful they’ve all prioritized the future of the country over everything else the last several months!

Congressman Casar is correct. I’ve conducted more Latino polling & focus groups of the fastest growing part of the working class this year than ever before and the findings are striking. Despite all the celebrating here, Latinos feel abandoned by the Democratic Party & have no confidence that anything will result in improving the economy - their priority issue. Cut the parade short and get to work if you want to keep them.
I respect Sen. Schatz, but I 100% disagree with him here. Even if we win the midterms, Democrats have far to go to win back the trust of working people. If Democrats don't understand that, we will sleepwalk into President Vance 2028. No one in America thinks the status quo is working. Voters want fighters for higher paychecks and lower prices. Next year, Democrats must pass bills powerful enough to actually tackle the cost of living crisis and root out rampant corruption. We cannot be the party of nervous lawyers who just tinker around the edges. For more than a decade, Democrats have been known primarily as the anti-Trump Party. If we take back Congress, we have to show we're more than anti-Trump. That starts with cracking down on corporate greed to bring down the cost of health care, housing, child care, groceries, and gas. And it means doing oversight of both the Trump Administration and big corporations ripping people off. If Donald Trump chooses to veto our popular, pro-affordability policies, the fight is far from over. We'll run on them in 2028 and pass them in 2029.

The rare DeSantis endorsement of @USProgressives legislation. He’s right to be worried. The Democratic Party is slowly consolidating around a vision of AI populism, while the political right has been completely co-opted by the AI industry and their financiers.
It would be absurd to bailout AI companies. Bad policy and horrible politics. I hope Republicans don’t let Democrats out maneuver them on this.

if you notice everyone getting crazier on here this week
the amount of political consultants at the end of the campaign who are actually bored and not doing much is way more than you'd think

.@SenBrianSchatz says that if Democrats take the Senate, the party's left wing needs to be strategic about not proposing things "that the president of the United States is guaranteed to veto." "If we want to be more aspirational, if we want to make more bold policy changes... that's for 2028."

Embattled Rep. Max Miller has put another $250,000 into his campaign. That’s on top of $1 million in loans that the congressman has made already this cycle for his extremely tough reelection. More from @allymutnick: punchbowl.news/article/house…

JD Vance calls himself a champion of working people. He’s actually a Silicon Valley venture capitalist, bankrolled by tech billionaires.  When he runs for president, we’ll make sure every Texan knows it.

Max Miller just gave his campaign another $250,000. He’s spent as much on his own campaigns than I’ve made in my entire life. Max Miller is unfit to serve, but he’s still in this race because of our corrupt campaign finance system. I need your help to beat him.

“On Thursday, Casar and 19 other Democrats sent a letter to OpenAI, pressing the company about the firing of three safety researchers.”

This lifelong Republican called into Glenn Beck’s radio show to say: when it comes to voting for Max Miller, “I just can’t look the other way.” Thank you to everyone putting country over party.

New polling found a sleeper issue in the debate on AI. House Republicans are vulnerable on a vote they took as part of the Big Beautiful Bill that would have blocked states from regulating AI for 10 years. It's a more potent attack than data centers. axios.com/2026/10/29/democra…

I’m heartbroken. For decades, Dolores Huerta fought to make the world a better place for workers, women, and immigrants. At 95 years old, Dolores would get on a red-eye flight on a moment’s notice to make it for a protest at the Capitol, or a meeting with brave Texas workers. She was inspiring us until the very end. Que en paz descanse, Dolores.
