It‘s time to accept that, for the Democratic Party, defeating Trump is secondary to defeating progressives. The past few weeks have made clear that they will go to **any** lengths to hold power. They do not care how much it damages or delegitimizes their party. Enough #DemExit

Regierungsverhandlung in Israel: Gantz bekommt nicht mehr Zeit
Ausschlaggebend für die Weigerung des Staatspräsidenten war offenbar ein Gespräch mit Premierminister Benjamin Netanyahu. Dieser habe nicht bestätigt, dass er kurz davor sei, sich mit Gantz auf eine Koalition zu verständigen, teilte das Büro des Staatspräsidenten in einer Erklärung mit.
Gantz hatte seine Bitte um Fristverlängerung damit begründet, dass sein Bündnis Blau-Weiß und Netanyahus Likud-Partei sich bald einigen würden.

Let’s start a campaign to build toward a Democratic Socialist Party
We recognize that a viable Democratic Socialist Party will need a larger base than what DSA currently has. Alongside growing DSA, we should call on Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ilahn Omar, Labor for Bernie leaders, and many other individuals, unions, and organizations to join us in taking steps towards such a working-class, democratic, membership-controlled force to advance our political revolution against the billionaire class.

Dear DNC: This is our Declaration of Independence from your Corporate Party
Now we find ourselves in a moment where it’s far too late to talk reform. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has rigged two presidential primary elections against Bernie Sanders and millions of voters. A global pandemic and unprecedented economic meltdown have lifted the veil, revealing the greed, rot, and corporate beholdenness that has driven another giant transfer of wealth to Wall Street — just like the Great Recession — while the many suffering are thrown a few scraps to keep us from revolting.
We believe that it’s time for a party that fights alongside our movements for economic, racial, social and environmental justice instead of fighting against them. We are ready to build a dynamic movement-party — a party that centers direct action and mutual aid with electoral politics — a party that understands that civil disobedience is critical in this moment if we are to wrest our power from these craven, insatiable elites.

I think we need a new party! – Angela Davis, 2016
Replying to @BernieSanders: Please start a new party. The dems are lost.
Whenever I used to hear stuff like #DemExit or #NeverBiden, I thought these views were held by a frankly marginal slice of the electorate that doesn‘t have much impact. But I am finding myself increasingly sympathetic to those folks.
That‘s a bad sign. I was raised in the party.
2020 elections: Barack Obama wins the Democratic primary
In the end, the most influential politician of 2020 might be the one who has been the most silent.
