#Loyalty
The Trump admin isn’t about competence, qualifications and ability. It’s about loyalty, cover ups and secrecy.

“Loyalty is its own reward”.

I think not.

It's a relief that our projected margin to control the House isn't razor-thin because Haley Stevens is gonna flip. Maybe not today. But she *will* flip.

She has no loyalty. Her motivation is only vengeance.

If this was true I'd pledge my loyalty to Brazil in a heartbeat ngl
Waow... (based based based based)

“Voting Blue isn’t about loyalty to party, it’s about Saving America! This is why we need to vote Trump enablers out!”

Why is a Muslim American being asked to prove his loyalty to the country he was born in?

I’m not dismissing legitimate concerns about antisemitism. I’m asking why Islamophobia doesn’t provoke the same outrage.

🥹 A simple act of kindness created a lifelong connection.
This dog remembered the man who was there when he needed help the most.
The love and loyalty of dogs are truly something special! 🐾❤️

This is why Hegseth demanded a loyalty oath from reporters and then kicked them out of the Pentagon when they wouldn't sign one. He's lying to the public.
Iran has done more damage to US military bases in the Middle East than commonly understood. A @wsj.com examination finds 274 structures at 24 installations in seven countries were damaged during the first six months of the war. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

Satellite imagery shows damage at more than two dozen installations, in the fullest accounting of the destruction yet.

you don't have to vote for transphobes and genocide deniers because they're democrats. you don't owe this party loyalty. you don't owe them votes. you owe this party nothing.

Loyalty to good things is good and loyalty to bad things is bad
I have the same slant while also finding it difficult to square with (correct) admonitions against republicans over the last 10 years to please put country before party.

Party loyalty simply cannot be value neutral.
I believe in a big tent Democratic Party. I also believe in punishing party disloyalty, swiftly and severely, and with maximum humiliation.

Your "strategy" is just "party loyalty" ???

How about maintaining loyalty to a professional code of ethics?
JD Vance whines about translators in hospitals and says, "how about if everyone just spoke English?"
October 30, 2026 at 12:37 PM
it's because the centrists consider themselves the rightful leaders of the party and think of "party loyalty" in terms of deference to themselves, specifically
October 31, 2026 at 4:35 PM
Understood. However people want a Dem party that fights. Part of that fight is speaking out loudly about principles and loyalty. MAGA enforces party discipline. Dems can’t have the same degree as diversity is (should be) the brand but loyalty is important. Leaders need to set the example.

In my eyes, he was simply indestructible—always by my side, through everything. And we never even had a contract. Marty can never be replaced, and I will be forever grateful for his friendship, loyalty, and unwavering support.

Trump has no loyalty to anyone but himself. And Putin.

Dan is, predictably, misconstruing this episode in a completely self-serving way. He is intentionally conflating party loyalty and principled opposition.
November 2, 2026 at 3:51 PM
Trump’s conception of American patriotism is loyalty to people like him. Everything else is dangerous. Be dangerous.

Christians love to condemn is for having dual loyalty and/or for being insufficiently dually loyal.

It would seem her loyalty to Zionism is greater than her loyalty to the Democratic Party. And/or she's just a racist.
November 1, 2026 at 11:22 PM
But Haley Stevens, Hillary Scholten, and others must think their reservations about El-Sayed trump party loyalty. I doubt most Democratic primary voters agree.
I do not view El-Sayed's relationship with Piker or his stances on Israeli policy to be urgent matters like stopping the genocide in Gaza in 2024. Francesca Hong seems to have (correctly in my view) put aside her differences on data centers with David Crowley enough to campaign hard for him.
It is hard to separate your expectations of party loyalty from your policy views. So I felt it was appropriate for left-leaning people to criticize Harris during the 2024 general election for the administration that she was a part of condoning and aiding the mass killing of Palestinians.

Mental Health episode
Narcissistic wound exacerbated by racism
Abusive partnership with someone who probably used her failure as demand for a demonstration of loyalty
is Haley Stevens actually having a mental health episode or is she just experiencing a narcissistic wound to her centrist ego
November 2, 2026 at 3:48 AM
Nothing says "we value your loyalty" quite like putting an expiration date on your reward points.

Moderate Dems may not love AES in a primary but I assure you their main loyalty is to the party. By winning, AES joined the team, and they want the team to win. Whatever Stevens is doing is her own nutso thing

They could have done this years ago without AI facial recognition by just having you scan a loyalty card when you get in line; but 1) they know full well that nobody actually wants this stupid shit and 2) the personalized menu is obviously not why they want to scan your face
Starbucks CEO says the company is planning to focus more on AI and tech, including a adding system that would recognize customers as they arrive in stores to "present personalized digital menus."
