Reality check. To all those who think @DNC needs a unifying message... DNC is doing a great job. What the unifying message is in NY is not the unifying message in VA. Nor is the unifying message in CA the unifying message in AK where we can win. DNC is unifying state by state and winning.

What scares me most isn’t just Trump’s NATO summit chaos where he's confusing countries, insulting allies, talking Greenland, attacking Spain. It’s that half the country will never even see it! We’re fighting an information bubble, a cult, and normalized chaos.

Trump seems to think “Land of the Free” means freeing convicted criminals. Now he’s reportedly considering 250 pardons for America’s 250th anniversary. Clever “marketing.”

I’m so tired of celebrating “wins” that should never have been battles in the first place. This birthright citizenship decision is a win, I guess. But honestly, why are we spending so much energy defending something that should have been settled by the 14th Amendment and common sense?

Maybe it's good all this election-fraud screaming is happening during the CA primary, before November. It's actually not exposing fraud, but just how thorough and transparent our process is.

I want money out of politics. Citizens United has done real damage. But money alone doesn’t win elections. If it did, Tom Steyer, Amy McGrath, and Beto O’Rourke would have won. Voters still weigh endorsements, experience, accomplishments, credibility, positions and who can win.

estern839.bsky.social @estern839.bsky.social · 03/06/2026

Ugh. Democrats someone has to drop out once in a while. CA40 will have two Republicans because Dems split the vote! Ken Calvert and Young Kim will probably run against one another.

I’ll be glad when this primary is over - especially CA48 So many candidates, changing district lines, Prop 50 confusion, GOP shifts, and Democratic infighting. Once it’s over, we must unite behind the Democrat, no matter who we supported. Taking back the House is the goal and CA-48 is critical.

HAD A YOUNGISH GUY SAY TO ME TODAY HE DIDN'T VOTE YET BECAUSE THE CANDIDATES ARE NOT INSPIRING. My reaction was not good! VOTE!!! YOU WANT TO SEE UNINSPIRING???? DON'T VOTE AND LET HILTON OR BIANCO WIN. Ugh. Here we go again. This is how we got Trump!!!!!!!!

@aoc.bsky.social is right. Gaza absolutely kept some Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters from voting Democratic especially in Michigan. It wasn’t the only factor, but it was a real one, and pretending otherwise doesn’t help Democrats win.

If “qualified women” were all it took, we wouldn’t need EMILYs List, Emerge, Higher Heights, Vote Run Lead, She Should Run, Close the Gap or Vote Mama. No one will convince me only 21% of women are qualified because that’s our share of Congress. I’ll back a qualified woman. Sorry, not sorry.

estern839.bsky.social @estern839.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

CA Voters! Many groups have major Get Out the Vote operations that depend on knowing who has NOT voted yet. That’s why there’s a push to turn ballots in now. Field teams can stop spending time contacting people who already plan to vote but haven’t yet. It’s not pressure. It’s practical.

All those years fighting for women to have a seat in the House and the Senate and the Boardroom and still, there are women who for some unknown reason are not supporting a woman with an impeccable resume and a long list of accomplishments.

GOP targeting CA48, putting Jim Desmond in its “MAGA Majority” program. Democrats can’t gamble. We need the strongest candidate: broad appeal, proven record of winning, least political baggage. Marni von Wilpert: name recognition, accomplishments, experience winning in a red San Diego district.

@mattmahansj.bsky.social Matt — polling at 6%… bold strategy. How exactly do you win this, or is the goal just to split the vote and hand MAGA two spots?

Betty Yee’s endorsement of Tom Steyer could energize this whole race. Now it feels like two rival teams, almost a football game, which may push voters to pick a side and knock the lower candidates out.

estern839.bsky.social @estern839.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

Nothing against Steyer. I just prefer Becerra. If we want a spirited real top-two race, Democrats need to be strategic. Pick Becerra or Steyer, but don’t waste votes on the other candidates.

010

estern839.bsky.social @estern839.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

Becerra took $39K from Chevron. In a statewide race, that's not enough to make anyone “owned” when you look at campaign costs. We learned with Trump what purity tests cost. If Dems hand this to a Republican, expect more drilling, lower taxes with cuts to education and healthcare, & open arms to ICE.

Orban loses after Vance stumped for him. USA in war of choice w/ Iran, yet this White House has time & money to send VP to campaign in Hungary, jet to Islamabad to come home empty-handed, & still make time for Trump to attend a UFC fight with Marco Rubio. This is not serious leadership.

So you mean to tell me, this was an open secret in DC, everybody knew, but folks endorsed him anyway? And now they’re pulling those endorsements? If you knew, why the fuck didn’t you say something sooner? Why let this go on for years? There’s additional culpability here if this is how it works.

What if Melania truly believes she’s the only one who can stop a mad Trump? By calling on Congress to listen to the Epstein victims, she may have boxed them in. Could she believe this is her heroine moment to save the nation from her own husband because she sees he’s devolving into madness.

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Iran is now gonna make a lot of money charging tolls to use the Strait of Hormuz. Maybe the strategy is they are now capitalists.

From a friend The emotional toll of genocidal extermination threats against Iran cannot be measured. This morning, I got a voice message from a childhood friend in Iran saying goodbye. Just in case. Make no mistake, this is torture. This is inhumane. I'm devastated and ashamed. We should all be. 💔
