Former Vice President Kamala Harris confirmed Friday that she is “thinking about” running for president in 2028 at the 2026 National Action Network Convention – in her most open public remarks to date about her political future.
Not sure what newsletters you get, but please stop trying to project your narrow-mindedness on me.
I would love it if the Dems were to run someone who was actually progressive and took a strong stance against violence. But the billionaire class owns the politicians and the media, so it’s literally impossible to go there too fast without a revolution. Too many Americans would be taken in by any media play to villainize a ‘communist’ candidate. Heck, the reason you hate Harris is partly from the efforts of the right wing media to sow division in the democrats so as to get their tax/regulation reducing guy in power. So we end up with a dem candidate who will still keep the billionaires happy. But it’s a simple fact of which viable candidate was better/worse. If you can’t see that Harris would have been better than trump by a lot, then you’re being willfully ignorant. And there’s a whole timeline issue with calling Harris a genocide supporter. At the time of the last election, Isreal was still arguably fighting Hamas who was still firing rockets daily at Israeli civilians after starting the latest escalation in the October attacks. Of course Isreal was committing human rights violations back then, as they have been for decades, but it wasn’t genocide by any reasonable definition at that point. Who knows how Harris would have reacted to the increased brutality and clearly unnecessary violence by Isreal? Probably Isreal wouldn’t have gone so far because of some pushback from a Harris administration. But there’s no way it would be as bad as under Trump, with Isreal basically directing the U.S. military and trump encouraging the complete destruction of Gaza and now Lebanon. So the failure to vote for Harris in the simple choice of her or Trump, is a direct cause of the worst violence against the Palestinians in a long time. Not to mention just about every other issue that failing to reject trump has damaged, from abortion rights, gay/trans rights, brutality against non-citizens, brutality against peaceful protestors, removal of environment protections, removal of healthcare funding, funding for science, funding for education/libraries, relations with international allies, dramatic cost of living increases, etc. All that for some moronic inability to choose the not-as-bad candidate. We need to do better. And if we actually get an election, we need to stop splitting hairs and dividing the left and get back some power so we can then push to clean things up. It’s either that or full blown revolution, but we know Americans don’t have the ability to do that for various excuses.
They were still doing a genocide under joe biden. She did nothing to distance herself from the admin and the only people to blame for her loss are herself and her enablers.
Well you can call it that if you want, but no one has ever used that term for similar actions in the past. It confuses things. And it actually minimizes the word, giving it less power for now when we need it.
But it honestly sounds like you are happy trump won and you are good with the horrific results in the ME. You do you, I guess.

They have, it’s been a genocide. The whole point of the genocide convention was to stop them while they’re happening, not to preserve the term for historical labeling and partisan bickering. The person cynically wielding and demeaning the term is you, because you only recognize genocide when it’s not ‘your guy’ doing it.
People like you disgust me. So invested in team loyalty you will minimize a genocide to avoid admitting your own parties participation. Just because I criticize democrats for their complicity doesn’t mean I am happy Trump won.
