I think it would be very useful if people could say it directly. Its because the Israeli minister is a racist, but seems like its left to insinuating the obvious when it comes to so much racism by right wing figures.

Burnham's like if a dem senator had 78 dem senators and was still saying "just one more election" and everyone knew they'd lose 20 senators then

I sincerely believe that if we had any kind of democracy worth defending Tom Watson would have been jailed and banned from politics for life around 2018 when it became clear he was engaging in internal sabotage of the party he was supposed to be the deputy leader of.

i don't care if people use the word 'genocide' but the degree to which people are chummy with those who don't just reject the word but who are in basic denial of what has happened is a bit disconcerting. and no 'netanyahu is a bad man' doesn't cover it

right. being in the 'influence' business is seedy enough but what if it is more than just making sure the clients meet the right people?

generally what is remembered, the stinky cloud they refer to, is just "mandelson/epstein were pals," but of course that wasn't news, the real news was that mandelson was telling (selling?) secrets and of course they all know it wasn't the one time

Whenever you see a pollster or consultant give a take like this, it’s always worth following the money. In this case, Emanuel has paid Anzalone’s firm nearly $300k (maybe more but that’s what I found so far). A consultant class is devouring the Dem Party www.elections.il.gov/CampaignDisc...

Underestimate @RahmEmanuel at your own risk.
He knows how to win. He knows how to fight.
And he knows how to message.
And no one will out work him. Regardless of whether he wins the Democratic nomination in 2028 he will make an impact on the race. You can be sure of that. Don't take your eyes off of him. At the minimum, learn from him.
