EVERYONE thought this song was about to be absolutely huge, but it literally was forgotten about a week later.

Watching that video was absolutely jarring, she needs to get help asap and anyone who denies it is insane.

Welcome back (now come to my room and choke me king ) Irs been mostly good news since Platner though babes

When was the last time you feel Christina Aguilera made a huge impact on pop culture?

She's deserving, but she truly is forgotten by the GP. The youngest millennials are barely old enough to remember her being relevant, and she might as well be a random khia from Compton to Gen Z and upwards.

I desperately want her to win, because Wisconsin Dems have a real shot at a trifecta this year, and it would be monumental for them to have one (so much good could come from it, basically be the next Minnesota). I just think there's a lot of weird squishy moderates who would probably be fine voting for someone who supports M4A, but hears "defund the police" and clutches their pearls and runs away in tears and votes for the republicans. It's one issue that I (irl) have truly learned that's broke through to a lot of people offline (sadly along with being very anti trans too).

Imma keep it a buck yall (keep it 100): Hongs interview with Fox News was not good at all. I love her policy positions, I love what she stands for, and it's amazing that she's the only candidate who's actually addressing something that's impacting people that both parties are trying to ignore (data centers)… But in a state like WI, defund the police is an electoral loser, and if she doesn't support it in 2026, she needs to forcefully come out against her past stances on it. Like, now… I'm not being unreasonable, I just want her to win. Especially because Tom Tiffany isn't some juggernaut of a candidate, he's a pretty bad back bencher

These losers crashing OUT, lord I am seeing what you are doing for me for once : https://x.com/danielsgoldman/status/2083103463869698111?s=46

I think they're the only 2 candidates worth even remotely voting for (and yes, I'm aware of Ossoff and his…past stances). The rest of the true options are horrific and non starters, or are just proven losers (hello Mamala)

Some of these polls I believe are way too rosy for Dems. If they're the same around mid September/early October, than the GOP needs to be in full blown panic mode because they are BAD. Like 2010/1994/2008 levels of bad

The rich can't buy people (and NYers) into liking Schumer. He's hated pretty broadly across the entire Dem base right now. AOC has the clout among the base to easily take him down. Granted, I trust US. Midwesterners to not be swayed by $$$ and bullshit ads compared to some or you coastal girlies (no offense), but nobody with a working brain cell wants Schumer in power any longer. AOC is hot, young, charismatic and has great policies. I think there will be better times for her than 28, but if she runs I'll happily vote for her anyway

Underestimate us Midwesterners at your own peril, but unlike a lot of those shiny blue states that a lot of people rave about (Cali and VA in particular): we love populism. Running left wins here. Neoliberalism is a dead end street. There's a reason Obama cleaned up in the Midwest in 08, and why Hillary flopped in the primaries (and general hihi) here

Everyone wants to wake up to the news I (got off work) woke up to The funny thing is: McMarrow was a much stronger candidate than Stevens, but the establishment hitched their wagon on her. Though I fear her old social media posts dragging Michigan woulda sunk her eventually. Still a thousand times better than ugly ogre Stevens

We keep waiting for Blue Texas to happen, but like fetch, it isn't going to happen. The biggest thing going is that Talarico is an actually good candidate, and Paxton is atrocious, and the national environment is very very blue. That's the only reason it's competitive right now

And adding to this: republicans don't have an alternative "Dobbs decision" to save their ass (like it did for Dems in 22) and piss off a lot of people that were otherwise gonna vote for them, but changed their mind. The one thing they can possibly do to mitigate the damage is to end the war in Iran and stop gas prices from rising any further, but to most people the insane COL for groceries and everything else has sealed their fate. This country sadly is still full of people who want to love or like Trump, but the living conditions right now have made that basically impossible outside of his die hard cult supporters, a lot of normies would probably turn a blind eye if gas was cheaper though.

The national environment right now is D+6 (at the low end) and D+11-12 on the high end. It would take a monumentally bad campaign on Abdul's end for him to lose a state that's like, R+2… I do agree though: the corporate Dem establishment that's obsessed with protecting Israel and their wallets has made it more difficult than it needs to be, but if the national environment is as blue as the polls are saying they are, I honestly don't see how he (or Hong) loses. Like, we're almost into August now, Republicans probably have another month (at the most) to turn things around (on a national level) before everything is just straight up baked in as far as how people are voting in November, and when the national environment is bluer than it is in 18 or 06, I don't see how Mike Rogers wins

With the recent explosion of AI over the last several years, data centers are rocking national politics in a very unexpected way. What are your thoughts on them, the positives and the negatives, and have any impacted your community directly?

My gut feeling is she's going down. Yes, she has money on her side, but in this environment I just feel like Dem primary voters don't care about listening to centrists or the establishment on "electability". If nobody is talking about how to address data centers or healthcare, they don't wanna hear it. The one thing keeping her above water is the Whitmer endorsement

She's been awful… If establishment Democrats are so terrified of the left costing them races, maybe they should actually start listening to their voters. Simply not taking money from AIPAC, not wanting more data centers built, and at least offering something on healthcare outside of "more Obamacare subsidies" would be an excellent start. Republicans have done nothing but gone right, and have lost general elections doing so, but they still stick to their guns. The republicans in suburbs democrats are so desperate to win over aren't gonna change their minds just because a democrats loves Israel, all of a sudden

As an avid NFL fan, Justin Herbert is a football player. He's just a QB for a team that has like 8 fans (The Chargers). Hes famous for being a terrible QB in the playoffs among the NFL community She's too hot for him too

I honestly legitimately don't care about Trump anymore. He feels like total background noise and the American public just feels over him and ready to move on. What more can be done? He's got 2.5 years left in office, and his time in politics is done, or he dies beforehand (which honestly wouldn't even surprise me). It's Democrats that are getting my ire. Now that they're about to run out of using their favorite boogeyman, they need to show something so that what's happened the last decade doesn't become a norm, but they don't want that. I'm relying on primary voters who are just as fed up as I am to at least attempt to fix this issue.

African American voters are historically very un reliable as far as turnout (especially in primaries) unless they absolutely LOVE the candidate, but Tbf Whitmer was one of those candidates, so her endorsement might move the needle for them. We'll see…. I feel bad having to hope for bad minority turnout and that they just stay their ass at Home, but Stevens in particular is just honestly that terrible. I'd rather see republicans win than her and establishment democrats get their way, they've 100% showed their ass, they can't even pretend to try and hide behind any kind of facade from here on out

It's hard times we addressed Democrats and neoliberals for too long have advocated: "👏listen👏to👏black👏women. And: "👏elect👏more👏women" and pretty much 100% of the time, those candidates they're telling us to vote for, are usually first in line to vote to send more $$ to Israel and vote "no" on M4A. Identity politics bullshit needs to GO

So in simpler terms: more $$ for Israel and no Medicare for all? Don't worry, you and "black voters" you "represent" will absolutely get your wish
