U.S. Senator-elect Peggy Flanagan is calling for new leadership among Senate Democrats following her election victory in Minnesota. Flanagan praised Chuck Schumer for his years of leadership, but said voters are ready for “new voices and new leadership” in the Senate caucus.

They fired all the black and gay people, cut cancer research, cut healthcare for millions, cut food for starving children, killed hundreds of schoolgirls, separated families, put kids in camps, and shot people in the street. We better get fucking even
Hakeem Jeffries on Morning Joe: The American people don't want us to get even. They want us to get things done on their behalf because life is way too expensive. We ran on affordability, we won on affordability, and now it's our job to govern on affordability.

I would love to see this. 👊🏾
YES!!! Jack Smith could investigate Donald Trump again. House Democrats could hire him as chief investigative counsel. He could question witnesses under oath, and the committee could subpoena records.

Thank you @Justinjpearson for running a historic race in #TN09 on the frontlines of our civil rights movement against the billionaires & white supremacists. They rigged the maps for him to lose by 21 points. He came within 1%. A 20-pt swing means the South has something to say.

Good. But if these investigations show he broke the law, you must impeach. It can’t just be for show.

Jennifer Welch: “The New Dems are here. You’re right, lawyer up, read it again motherfuckers. There’s no secret meetings and playing pattycake with failson Jared fuckface Kushner. None of that shit. All gas on this thing until MAGA is crushed completely and thoroughly and a museum is erected with every single fascist’s name and every single person who gave money to these piece of shit bigots with their names chiseled in marble”

Call me crazy but I don't think it's a good idea to make someone Speaker of the House if they do things like have secret meetings with Kushner (a literal traitor that paid a hitman to kill a journalist) to plan how our country can serve Israel. Especially considering the rebuke of pro-Israel candidates that gave us the majority to begin with.....

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Democrats are planning to pass a bill called the Alex Pretti Act when they take over Congress in January that will end qualified immunity for ICE agents, allowing them to be sued or jailed for wrongdoing
Mita Banerjee retweeted
Jeffries needs to stop using words like "retribution" and "revenge" when he should be using words like "accountability" and "malfeasance" and "wrongdoing".

Forget prosecuting Wall Street, Obama bailed them out.
It’s my duty as a historian to remind you that one of Obama’s biggest blunders was not prosecuting any members of the Bush/Cheney administration or the Wall Street crowd behind the 2008 crash, granting impunity to war criminals, torturers, and white collar criminals. Let’s not repeat history.

When we announced our challenge of Democratic incumbents, the establishment rioted. We didn't listen. Now, we've kicked sex pest Jimmy Gomez to the curb and elected a bold progressive leader who will answer to her constituents, not corporations and special interests like AIPAC.
Good riddance to Jimmy Gomez, who abused his power & is a disgrace to the Dem Party. Now, Angelenos have a young and bold progressive representative who will fight for the working class, not corporate donors and special interest groups like AIPAC. Congratulations, @Angela4CA!!

The people gave us a mandate for bold, transformative policy. And our Democratic majority must meet the moment. Now is not the time for incrementalism or moderating our aspirations. We have to use our power and be ready on day one to do the work of repair and reconstruction.
