Right? They didn't have any money for the Black woman, and that's because their goal is to get the Black people out of power, not to put them in power. They didn't care if Cori won her race.

I said it then and I’ll say it again if they truly cared about their Black candidates then Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush would still be in office

Yup. Neither had the DSA money behind them, like they got behind other candidates. They don't want Black people to have too much power in the Democratic party. I remember seeing their post of them saying that when Bernie was running.

I remember when she lost in 2024, a local article spoke with voters and they felt she was abandoning them to chase national attention. And 2 years later, from what I saw, it seemed to be the case again.

Isn't that minorities' job in DSA? Attack Black people so White Supremacists don't have to do it.

That’s what we’re trying to find out, isn’t it 👀

We gotta stop letting these mfs use blackness as a bulwark against legitimate critiques and movements.

Cori Bush, Jamal Bowman, etc the list goes on are pawns in the DSA game. They been doing this. They dont mean us no good.

I voted for Bush the first time, but was very disappointed with her term. It didn't help that she was heavily critical of KH, when her comments carried weight. Bush was too busy trying to be a media star instead of people's business in STL!

Or maybe it’s because of the Epstein class and the Israeli lobby outraising her dipshit.

Self care Kenny —Take care of you🫂 Thank you for everything you do 💕

we don't all share coffers. Hasan Piker was out there with her & trying to get the word out. this is what we're talking about with campaign financing.

A very clear and concise explanation @2RawTooReal hence why you are always the voice of reason in my book.

As someone who lives in St. Louis...in our state you don't have to be a registered Dem to vote in the Dem primary. The Repub always loses to the Dem in November. Based on that, many Repubs are voting in the Dem primary. I personally know one who said they were voting for Bell

All the critical Black issues you mentioned— maternal mortality, poor health care, and affordability are best addressed by DSA or progressives. The establishment has no answer for us 10 years after Obama.

Attacking progressives is a dumb move Yall go head and keep voting for democrats that just help the republicans

Black influencers being paid looks like they need the black vote to push their AIPAC genocide supporters into office again.

While Harris sat quiet on primary's cuz she trying to be as usual no stance on anything so i can scheme for your vote while i tell you i wont fight for VRA like she did few days ago lol Now she endorse Abdul but AOC been on ground for moths. Please leave AOC out of your cori thing ok.

Why are Black voters so susceptible to corporate candidates?

@BklynDin Expired Kohl’s Cash. 😂

As a former Centrist Dem who's now moved further left, I do get what you're saying. I remember the racist faction of 'Bernie bros', particularly during the '16 election. But it's frustrating seeing that broad brush painted over the entire current left/progressive wing. 😕

How to be a moron 101:

Lies, lies and more lies.

Well said

@iamchanteezy You are absolutely right.

Where do you get this idea that we look at people as the pinnacle or like they're the savior of progressives? That's not how we look at things we don't look at it like that. Y'all do, we're focused on a movement not one person

It's nothing but the truth!! Also, take care of yourself!! Enjoy your break!

She's a known scammer in STL/MO 01, 2nd time under investigation for it, that's why she lost.

I usually support females but I voted for Bell this time. I was very disappointed in Bush when she was in office. She was going against everything I wanted her to vote for- like being difficult to be difficult.

Are you getting it yet? Now it’s time to fight for our people instead of the Democratic Party. We All We Got!

What you're not understanding is Gaza is a litmus test. If you are a black man that cannot condemn an apartheid state. You cannot fight this will not stand up to this government, which is why bell has not done anything for his community besides raise money

blah blah blah boy bye!

🔥

The fat that you're saying, what's happening in gaza, which is an apartheid state, does not resonate with black people.Lets me know you don't know nothing about black people

Great Good riddance

Preach Kenny!!!

@iamchanteezy Thank you. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

I’ve been getting a lot of messages lately from progressives begging me for money and support. I don’t know if they are really democrats.🤷🏽♀️
