Donald Trump is leading a deeply corrupt, fascist administration that seeks to punish and imprison his enemies – big and small, real and perceived. The unpopular president and his team are laying the groundwork to try to steal the 2026 midterms, and they’re not even trying to hide it.

Democrats in Washington, meanwhile, are hyper-focused on… condemning a left-wing podcaster, Hasan Piker, and distorting his comments criticizing Zionists as a way to marginalize and block the rise of anti-Israel voices on the left.

With less than 10 weeks to go before the election, the opposition party is using this crucial time to demonstrate their continued fealty to Israel – despite its deep and growing political unpopularity in the U.S., its horrifying genocide in Gaza, and the ruinous Iran war that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dragged America’s idiot president into.

It makes me livid that the danger Hasan is pointing to is real and yet centrist Dems can't even handle the subject being brought up without having performative meltdowns.

How was the DNC was captured? I want to be sure I’m understanding you.

They weren't careful enough about where their money was coming from and wound up beholden to interests that compromise the values they're supposed to stand for.

    Ok so you’re talking about being beholden to corporate interests, yeah?

    The only way Piker is trying to influence the DNC is by holding them accountable to what they’re supposed to stand for and pull them back from how far the Overton window has shifted. That’s why he campaigns with Democratic Socialists.
