the largest public gathering of centrist Democrats
Til Torres is considered centrist dem?
He's right between the fascists and the blue fascists.
It almost feels staged. Ritchie Torres is one of the top recipients of funding from Zionist lobby groups. Ritchie Torres sees the protesters approaching the stage and announces the protesters before they go into frame. The protesters hold up signs around Ritchie Torres. The venue starts playing "You're so vain" by Carly Simon. There's a uniquely made lyrics slideshow on the screen behind the stage.
It's absurd that these centrist Democrats made a music slide show in anticipation of protesters.
Ah yes, vanity is infamously described as putting yourself in danger of losing everything in order to make a statement in favor of people who are hurting.
I can't decide if it's worse if it was staged
Makes you wonder if it was staged.
I love how Brace and Liz and producer YungChomsky simply appear in places. They're like a cryptid that appears when its name is spoken. I refuse to believe they travel by any means other than teleportation.
Hope they make this a free episode, I love when they talk about going to shit like this
who's that on the right?

idk why people keep letting them in to thing. I'm glad they do get in, but if I was issuing press passes and I had any idea who they were (and I was a fascist ghoul) I would not issue them passes
This year's theme for WelcomeFest is "Responsibility to Win,” exploring the key places Democrats must take responsibility to regain voters' trust and highlighting Party leaders who are best suited to shed light into how we do that.

*since the civil war
this scum got elected over jose vega because of dnc and their greed for aipac money (which they recoup 1000x from our “aid” packages). its a shame people still voted for this crook under the “lesser evil” extortion schema. what a vile cnt
senator like torres is reason i can’t vote dnc anymore.
Jose Vega is a self-identified LaRouchite, supporter of Lyndon LaRouche. He ran against Ritchie Torres as a candidate of the LaRouche party in 2024 and got 2% of the vote. Lyndon LaRouche was a former Trotskyist who adopted far right policies and allied with Ronald Reagan. Lyndon LaRouche also communicated with the CIA. Jose Vega is basically the equivalent of Jackson Hinkle or Jimmy Dore.
The reason why I mention this is because Jose Vega seems like an opportunist. Before October 7, there is video of Jackson Hinkle praising Netanyahu. Now Jackson Hinkle presents himself as pro-Palestine every day. The reason is opportunism. The first time that I see Jose Vega ever mention Israel or Palestine was to criticize Ritchie Torres in 2023. It makes me think that Jose Vega only uses Palestine as a tool to use to gain popularity.
Joe Vega has also praised Jackson Hinkle, Caleb Maupin, Jimmy Dore in 2022 or maybe earlier.

The actions of the Netanyahu regime are not reflective of Jews around the world or even of most Israeli citizens. I refuse to let that ever be the narrative, regardless of what some violent maniac PSL member may think otherwise.
I'm scrolling through his twitter feed and I see his reaction to the Israel Embassy Shooting from last month and Jose Vega blames the shooting on the PSL and implies that the shooting was antisemitic. The Israel Embassy shooting killed 2 people who worked for the Israel Embassy, one of them wasn't even Jewish. Jose Vega says that the actions of Netanyahu are not reflective of employees of the Israel Embassy. The actions of the employees of the Israel Embassy are not reflective of the actions of the Israel government ??? What ???
It was revealed in the shooter's manifesto that he didn't even like the PSL and Jose refers to the shooter as "maniac PSL member". Yet, he wants people to think that PSL members are "maniacs".
He says that Israelis don't support Netanyahu, which is overwhelming not true, to imply that Israelis don't support Israel's genocide in Gaza, which is also very much false. He's setting up the Nuremberg defense for the IOF.
I’ve been seeing a lot of conflicting reports, but mostly hearing that Israelis are upset with Netanyahu for not ending this war sooner
This is not something an anti-Zionist would say. Jose is doing the Liberal Zionist framing of placing all blame of the genocide in Gaza on Netanyahu, to wash Zionists of their crimes. He's saying in this quote that Israelis are not responsible for the genocide in Gaza, only Netanyahu.
You've heard of Democrats, The Lesser Evil. Now there's Jose Vega, The Lesser Lesser Evil. Jose Vega doesn't even identify as a communist or socialist. He goes around telling people that he's an "American" and "Patriot".
In my other comment I also point out that Jose Vega allies with Jimmy Dore and Jackson Hinkle.
he is saying not “all” israelis support this genocide. which is hardly an evil take. just go through haertz and you will see plenty of news to support this.
and i didn’t say he is the right candidate just that he good enough to not loose against torres.
i will categorize it as a avg human with few weird misinformed opinions vs absolute garbage pimp ritchie who will happily give his kids to pedophiles for campaign money. harris vs trump was “child murdering turd wrapped in rainbow flag” vs “pro-child murdering turd wrapped in confederate flag”

Claims that you have a right to protest, then forcefully breaks up the protest and proceeds to use music to drown them out. They just say random words, don't these ghouls?
We must make it unacceptable for politicians to take AIPAC money, never vote for them and always against them. The best would be to ban ALL pac donations though
Making a 'burn track' in anticipation of bouncing protestors who are (justifiably) noting that you support a genocide
And liberals wonder why fucking everyone hates them
Like this is so fucking tone deaf it's cringeworthy, WHO is this party for? Don't answer that because I already know (billionaires).
They don't wonder; that implies they want to know.
