Donald Trump accidentally posted an incendiary private message to Attorney General Pam Bondi on his public Truth Social account… According to The Wall Street Journal, Trump believed he was sending Bondi a private message, insisting she prosecute his nemesis and former FBI director, James Comey, along with other targets.
RawStory adds: “the President of the United States communicating with his cabinet via Truth Social direct message is both insane and a violation of the Presidential Records Act,” former Obama administration staffer Dan Pfeiffer posted on X.

Yeah … Not so sure about that.
Pretty sure the heads of the dnc would still rather lose to a fascist than endorse a democratic socialist. Until we cast out every thirdway Democrat from congress were never going to actually going to see any real progress.
The DNC is a dictatorship…
The chair has complete and total authority. With a Dem president they nominate someone, when the Dem loses the ~400 voting members get to pick.
After 2024 they rejected neoliberalism and got us the first nonbiased chair in decades.
They won’t endorse anyone in a primary, but the DNC chair has endorsed Mamdani and said he’s the future of the party and a blueprint for what they need to do nationally.
Like, 10 months ago I was pissed too.
But we literally just won a fight over the Dem party that’s lasted over a generation. If you’re still shitting in the DNC today, it’s because you fell for neoliberal propaganda fed to you by billionaire owned media corporations.
We can’t afford for people to be ignorant right now, you need to pay more attention
They gave you the guy who literally said he would continue to take lobbying bribes from the “good billionaires”
Likewise Ken Martin is on the same page as the rest of the Dems in regards to support for Israel over genocide.
Anyone who thinks they have changed has fallen for neoliberal propaganda.
Total authority to do…? This is a complete exaggeration of the responsibilities of their job. The chair of the dnc is mostly a talking head in charge of fundraising. They cannot order democratic candidates or elected officials to do anything or to take a particular stance on any topic.
Plus, the new chair lacks wide support or appeal in his own party. The current dnc is wrecked by infighting and a huge gap in fundraising.
I would hardly say they’ve rejected neoliberalism… I mean Ken Martin is basically just a Democrat from the 90’s, which is still a neo liberal. Hes not a socialist , he’s just not a Republican noising as a Democrat.
Source for this? I don’t think him saying he didn’t agree with him, but that the dnc was a big tent party really reflects your claim.
Or maybe you are coping a little too hard and investing a lot of power into a position that is largely considered to be a figure head.
Ahhh yes…I often consume neoliberal propaganda …as a socialist?
There’s still plenty to criticize about every political party in America, mainly because they are fruit of a poisoned tree.
For decades under neoliberls…
Martin not just doing that, is a good thing, right?
Like,you understand the goal wasn’t to get someone to do the same shitty things that ruined the party, it was to get someone in who would do what they’re supposed to?
That’s like how people are pissed Martin isn’t biased in the opposite direction, instead of celebrating that we have a non biased chair.
Shits been fucked up so long, lots of voters like you have no idea what a functional political party is supposed to look like, let alone an American political party.
You haven’t substantiated that Martin is any different, or that he has somehow been imbued with more power over the party than previous chairs.
How is he not just doing that? Again, you haven’t shared any information that would lead me to believe that the dnc has significantly changed their stance in the last 8 months.
Just because he isn’t a Republican in disguise doesn’t mean he’s a leftist, he’s already claimed as much. And just because the party elected a progressive compared to previous chairs, does not mean that the party has changed to a significant degree. The important cabinet and leadership positions are dictated by seniority and are still filled by center right ghouls.
Lol, what does that even mean? What is a long time for you? And what does a functional political party supposed to look like in your opinion?
My first election was Bush Sr vs Dukakis and let me tell ya, nothing was “normal” back then either.
His over a decade running Minnesota kind of shows that…
People exist before you hear their name
Lol, yes his career in the famously purple state of Minnesota shows that he’s super progressive?
Amy Klobuchar and Tim Waltz, obvious leftist icons…
No shit, which is why I know he’s a centerist who’s worked his whole career with other centerist and center right politicians.
I’m not saying that he’s not an improvement over the last chair, I’m saying that he’s not significantly different, and that he doesn’t represent a bellwether for the party as a whole.
Your only argument supporting the claim that the party has changed is based off a single person who doesn’t even hold a public office.
So then maybe not give a shit who they endorse and just vote for progressives running in the Dem primaries regardless. Just like when Bernie ran for Senator, and when AOC ran for the House, and when Mamdari ran for mayor. If enough voters show up for the available candidates, then the DNC heads don’t have any fucking choice in the matter.
I didn’t say to do otherwise?
My point was that we need to vote out the old guard who fall over themselves to compromise with conservatives any chance they get.
One of the problems we have to deal with is that the old guard has a lot of influence over where election funding is spent. People like Mamdari might be an outlier that candidates in more rural localities may not be able to copy.
