Instead he spreads disinformation, encouraging violent response. 011

Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 22/04/2026But the point is VA voters are out for blood. If you run candidates that are Republican Lite, on crime, Abolishing ICE, genocide, taxong millionaires, Abolishing Billionaires, healthcare, accountability, abortion, the Supreme Court, any of it, they will not feel seen and will not turn out for you. 000

Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 22/04/2026His time has passed but he has a massive war chest. This would have been a great cycle to primary him. 2028 will likely be even better, especially if Trump continues to destroy the country & Gotthimer continues to obstruct policies that are priorities for D voters in his district & the country. 100
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Hello #vapol it is I, #njpol, from the past with a warning for future you. Don't fall for the same bad takes that led NJ to run "Dems" like Josh Gottheimer to "purple" districts. Run radical candidates, take brave policy stands. Be Analilia Mejias in a House of Josh Gottheimers. Keep the takes good. 111

Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Thanks to @colleenonthescene.bsky.social and Katie Sobko for covering this for @northjerseynews.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/coll... 032
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Don't even get us started on "New York New Jersey." What's NY providing? A closed train station? Get the fuck outta here. At least Eric Adams won't have a problem with the trains since he's coming from Fort Lee. 122
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026So now we'll be pissing off hundreds of thousands of ordinary workers and other visitors to NYC most of which will have no clue about the World Cup schedule on 8 random days in June and July because NJ built a stadium in the middle of nowhere with no thought to how people would get there. 122
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026So in proud FIFA World Cup tradition, local residents get absolutely shit on in service of a bunch of rich douchebags & nepobabies, big public transit users, watching some soccer games. This is before you even factor in ICE targeting the fans, players not getting visas to come to the US to play, etc 142
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Add another however many hours it'll take to get approximately a bazillion drunk soccer houlagans out of Secaucus station after the game. And the fact the trains turn around at Penn and some lines don't run into Penn so the connection via Secaucus is the only way to get home from NYC. 122
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Context: Because Gov Christie and later Pres Trump hated public transportation/infrastructure investments & hated NJ there's still a single two track tunnel under the Hudson, a huge bottle neck getting trains from NJ to New York City. FIFA, famously rigorous and process oriented, didn't care. 132
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Booker's quiet part that he doesn't want to say out loud also plays on the antisemitic trope conflating Jews with the actions of the Israeli Government. Booker's support of a genocidal regime while using his platform to suppress criticism and prevent accountability ultimately makes Jews less safe. 021
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Cory is trying to leave the accusation unsaid. Pretending AIPAC gets so much attention is because of antisemitism. But that quite obviously ignores the fact that no other country w/ massive US lobbying power is actively perpetrating a gencode & a genocide lite, while invading multiple companies. 111
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 23/03/2026There is an ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. It is funded and supported by the US, by both parties, see Senators Graham & Booker. Those same parties have acknowledged the Armenian genocide, despite Turkish PAC money fighting that activity. 111
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Context: Maybe if Turkey, or Iran had an ongoing apartheid state, that had decades of support, weapons, and funding from the US, people would call them out more. People would call that out like they call out the apartheid in Occupied Palestine. 111
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Kudos to @lilohstainton.bsky.social and @newjerseymonitor.com for covering this newjerseymonitor.com/2026/03/12/g...newjerseymonitor.comGov. Sherrill plan seeks to fine big companies with workers on Medicaid • New Jersey MonitorGov. Sherrill wants to fine large companies up to $725 annually per worker enrolled in Medicaid. Business groups oppose the plan. 022
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 12/03/2026The $725 NJ wants them to pay means they'd need to employ 23M people on Medicaid in states with such a policy to erase their profits. They could also just give them healthcare, you know, so they don't die. 111
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Their effective tax rate in 2025 was 23.4%, about the same as a tax payer making $100-200k per year. They made about 100k times that in 2025. That's what Walmart thinks is sustainable and investing in NJ workers. 111
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Context: Walmart made $17B in profit in the first 9-months of 2025. That may be of low margin sales, but that's still a shit ton of money they're raking in, in part because they underpay and under-employ their workers. All of that profit goes to the top execs as bonuses and to shareholders. 211
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 25/02/2026Overall... This fucking guy. A poster through & through. You can totally see him sending a letter in the 1930s, "Went to Adolf's book reading, valuable to hear first hand." Can we jump ahead to 2030 when he loses in the General to Andy Kim & the NJGOP throws him out too & he completes his Cuomo arc? 042
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 25/02/2026Fulop 4 Gov supporters need to evaluate their instincts & any vetting/endorsement processes that lead to them to back this clown. On the other hand, he clearly has no issue just blatantly lying to people's faces. Either progressives in NJ, capitalists in NYC, or fascists in DC are being fooled. 132
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 25/02/2026Context: (We know he's not NJ's problem anymore, except for the Jersey City's Budget shenanigans, and the inevitable lawsuits, but are we just supposed to ignore this Fetterman level Jekyll and Hyde lying to voters to just further your personal gain? Plus he probably transited NJ to get to DC) 132
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Trump has been provoking this crisis since his first term. There's no time crunch, Josh. Stop whining about hating tolls and do your job by voting to restrain the madman in the White House and all the future occupants from starting wars in our name. 000
Bad NJ Politics Takes @badnjtakes.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Because while Gottheimer wanted to federally legislate to cancel congestion pricing, he doesn't want to restrain our mad, wannabe king from starting a war of aggression that will kill thousands of not millions of people across the region. 111
