As someone who is still stuck living in Northeast Philly your not going to tell me how to vote.
Fetterman not only would help improve me and my families life by fighting for M4A and a living wage but also he isn't a puppet like Lamb and he doesn't take super PAC money.
For me personally
-Jagmeet Singh on the assault rifle ban as I feel it goes to far and bill C-11 was pretty bad.
-Tom Mulcair was atrocious when it came to Israel/Palestine.
-Jeremy Corbyn supporting giving the Falklands to Argentina and supporting abolishing the monarchy.

Fun fact : Polls show British Colombia as one of the least open places in all of Canada to joining the United States even less open then Ontario which is consider to be the heart of Canada.
Two of the greatest passions of my life: helping people learn about Canada and making Canadian content.
The most common criticism I receive: you hate Canada, leave.
@shanewallick
1. Bowman doesn't support Hamas lmao.
2. I don't think you understand how powerful the New York swamp is, once you elect someone like Latimer in a safe blue seat it'll be a nightmare to get him out cause of AIPAC + the damage will already be done.
The panhandle was originally part of Texas till slave owners in Texas wanting to join the decided to cede the panhandle to Oklahoma so Texas could be under the 36°30' latitude so they could keep enslaving black people.
I've seen enough, John Fetterman has beaten Dr.Oz and has outperformed Biden.
This is the first time since 1962 that a Democrat has won this Senate seat here in Pennsylvania.
Also the last time Dems had 2 Dem Senators from PA was back in 1944.
This is a historic moment for PA.
@DumpTrump_45
Let's see here
1. He's actively attacking Biden from the right on Israel-Palestine
2. He agrees with Republicans on immigration
3. And now he's basically 180ed from supporting prison reform to this now
All bro tweets about are about Israel, not a single mention of healthcare.

The map of would look a lot crazier if it went county by county.
You could see the full extent just how many ancestral Democrats who now adays mostly vote R downballot but still are registered as Democrats.

The difference between those countries and the Soviet's is after the Soviet's signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact they literally fought alongside the Nazi's to split Poland and most of Eastern Europe.
@Arnielib
That's mostly because they border the PRC, so even if America really screwed over Vietnam by indiscriminately napalming them during the Vietnam war they know at the very least America isn't going to try to annex all of Vietnam with brute force like what China might try to do.
@PhillyInquirer
Correction, The Philadelphia Inquirer is endorsing Lamb cause Conor Lamb is one of the least grassroots funded candidates running on the Democrat's side and won't shake up the system as much as Fetterman would.

Don't let the door hot you on your way out cause I'd kill to be as blessed as someone who was fortunate enough to be born and grow up in Canada.
@SkylerOops_
All of these people are based and shouldn't be primaried.
Henry Cueller on the other hand is going to be a great primary target in 2024. =)
This guy is seriously trying to debate removing campaign finance laws so billionaires can buy Canadian elections just like how they do here in the states. 💀
I found this old photo I took of an ad from Elections Ontario in the National Post back in 2018. It's such a gross illustration of Canada's anti-democratic, anti-speech campaign finance policies. "Have something to say?" Well better obtain permission from government first, bucko!
Bernie almost single handedly revived the American left after it died multiple times after the death of MLK, the second scare and during the Reagan and Bill Clinton era.
Without Bernie's leadership many of the gains made by the American left could easily be retracted.
@shanewallick
Given New York has given us Hochel, Andrew Cuomo and Micheal Bloomberg how can I not expect the absolute worst case scenario were talking about the New York Democrats for christ sake their almost as bad as Flordia Dems.
@TWLadyGrey
@USA_Polling
I don't think you understand that during WWII the Allies atleast had the decency to try and avoid bombing civilian centers unless absolutely necessary.
What Israel is doing is more comparable to how the Nazis went out of their way to target civilians.
@OregonMapGuy
The fact Clinton polls a consistent 16% in Democratic primary polls makes me believe there's a good minority of Democrats who have learned absolutely nothing from 2016.
So let me get this straight Progressives aren't allowed to force a vote on Medicare For All, but the New Dems are allowed to those us under the bus and give into Republican talking points?
The good news is Erdogan is unlikely to go back over 50% so the next election is likely to go to a runoff giving the Nation Alliance another chance to oust Erdogan in the runoff.
The bad news?...the party acting as a spoiler here is a far-right anti-refugee party
@PhillyInquirer
Fetterman polls 6 points higher against of Lamb in matchup's against Oz but somehow The Philly Inquirer thinks Lamb's more electable.
If the Philly Inquirer really cared about winning this senate race they'd endorse Fetterman who is over 50% in the polls for this primary race.
@OlyaKarLott
@OttawaGestapo
As someone stuck living in the US my life expectancy in my area is only 71 but if I lived in Canada it would go up to 80.
That's the difference between being in a country with and without no taxerpayer healthcare system and that's not even mentioned the cost of medical bills.
@ZackaryTweets
Oz was exceptionally unlikable and came out as the opportunist Hollywood elitist he was.
Also in general a lot of Republicans underestimated Fetterman the same way Democrats underestimated Trump back in 2016.
In short Oz was like a Republican version of Hillary Clinton.
I love how this Democratic primary in safe red ancestral Dem Southwestern PA ended up being much more competitive than Summer Lee's primary.
Thank god Dems are atleast fielding a candidate in PA-14 this time.
@Struckneptune
If the Falklands want to be a British territory they should be allowed to do so, the alternative is becoming part of Argentina which has had a long history of brutal right-wing dictators.
In a way Oz had a lot more in common with Hillary Clinton then 2016 Trump in that he was a out of touch smug elitist who thought he was entitled to a Senate seat from a state he wasn't even from.
It's pretty easy to understand how a Trump voters could vote for Fetterman.
You know there's just something off of Anoka being suburban ancestral Democratic county.
Anoka use to be reliably blue up until the 2000's when it flipped to Bush, on the brightside atleast it's relatively competitive county.
You see the primary reason why the media and the Democratic party declared total war against Bernie back in 2016 and 2020 was because he legitimately could have won due to his positive favorability rating and ability to moderate when needed while still being progressive.
@samvbee
@natashakorecki
As someone who is a actual registered voter in Pennsylvania who's going to be voting for Fetterman in the upcoming general election you're not going to tell me how to vote.
🧵With all due respect
@JohnFetterman
I love having you as my senator and I personally donated about 100 to your campaign during the midterms but I have to ask.
Why can't you support Medicare for All when Matt Cartwright who is in a Trump +3 district supports it?
@Struckneptune
The Falklands are overwhelmingly British and whether you like that or not they voted to stay a British territory so unless the people change their mind then they should be allowed to stay that way.
Corbyn was never antisemitic.
Criticizing Israel's illegal expansion into the West Bank, Israel's 2014 offensive into Gaza which killed over 80% civilians or criticizing how Israel treats Palestinians as second-class citizens does not make you an antisemite.
Once upon a time I was very young, uninformed & I supported
@BernieSanders
the more I devoted myself to learn about politics the more I was ashamed I once supported him. Now he should feel ashamed for posing with an infamous Jew-hater
@jeremycorbyn
The first ones a no brainer but the second one will throw a couple of you off.
For those who don't know Saskatchewan is actually the most right-wing province in Canada, not Alberta.
🧵I'm sorry but that would be an absolutely terrible idea.
I hate having to fight to the death with the centrists over who gets to control the Democratic party, why the hell would you want to bring that to Canada?
The answer is Proportional Representation, not merging the two
@SocialistMMA
I'll be honest and tell you I didn't think Zelensky would do something like this.
Russia is still the aggressor in this conflict for launching a full scale invasion of Ukraine but that doesn't mean we should turn a blind eye to this deeply authoritarian action by Zelensky.
@guntiiiii
Spanking children should be illegal.
It's a shame not a single US state has ever tried this yet and even worse in half of the US spanking children is legal for freaking teachers which is really backwards.
@CanadianPolling
Extremely unfortunate but it is what it is.
If Poilievre wins in 2025 Alberta's healthcare is surely going to get privatized which is a scary thought but I guess what are you supposed to expect from one of the most Conservative provinces in Canada.
@AndrewKerrNC
@nicholaswu12
This is literally a Fox News hitpiece which only tells you 1 side of the story.
They'll rightfully mention the crimes against humanity committed by Hamas but they'll completely silent about Israel cutting off Gaza's water supply which causes needless civilian loss.
@SyntheticusAlt
@PoliticsLs
That's a Palestinian flag though, not Hamas's
The flag on the left is Hamas's, while the flag you used is just the regular Palestinian flag.
Watching AOC on TV just now, she kept using the phrase “coalition government” to describe (excitedly) the idea of getting a Republican speaker elected with Democratic votes. A lot of left-wing Americans have a weird parliamentary system fetish.
It took me a bit to made this but here it is.
It's a map comparing the shifts from the Pennsylvania Senate race back in 2016 between Tommey and McGinty to the one we just had where Fetterman beat Oz by just shy of 5 points.
Way to make the argument to keep Nevada's, Illinois's and New Jerseys maps.🤦♂️
Can we all just agree we should have maps which gives Dems a seat in states like Oklahoma and Utah in return for Connecticut and Massachusetts giving Republicans a seat?
