This is the oldest trick in the neoliberal playbook: Weaponize identity politics to conceal your corruption. It won’t work. We oppose Hakeem Jeffries because he takes AIPAC/corporate money. If he had the politics of Fred Hampton we’d be calling him Chairman Jeffries!

The new "moderate" Democrats are not the moderate Democrats of 20 years ago. This is not Third Way clintonism. We can do unprecedented FDR-style things if the right person wins in 2028.
Talarico argues pro-business really means pro-big business, socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for everyone else
“I've seen that when people talk about being pro-business, what that usually means is being pro-big business, right?”
“we basically subsidize Walmart through Medicaid because they don't give their employees quality healthcare.”
“So again, socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for the rest of us.”
“And this is not a radical vision. It's what we had before.”

Please spread the word that it is the Republican bill that will be throwing people off of their health care in January. They scheduled it that way to make it look like it was the Democrats.

We are NOT doing this anymore. The era of identity weaponization is OVER. Nobody cares that you’re black! We care that you’re an AIPAC and wall street stooge! These dem majorities are going straight down the drain if they’re stupid enough to hand him the gavel.

As an immediate first step to Medicare for All, the new Democratic Congress must lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55, cover all kids & expand Medicare for dental, vision & hearing.
All of this can be passed with 51 votes in the Senate through reconciliation. Let’s do it.

You have dozens of posts like this
The “jokes” about Charlie Kirk are heinous for reasons that have nothing to do with the fact that I agree with his politics. There is just something especially callous and soulless about gloating over a brutal, bloody murder we all saw with our own eyes. He was a young man and father of young children. We saw him get shot in the neck. The blood pour out. The natural human reaction when seeing something so violent, bloody, and shocking is to be moved and shaken by it. If instead you’re gloating and joking, it shows that this human part of you is dead. You truly are a soulless goblin in a way that’s only vaguely distinguishable from the guy who actually committed the murder. That’s what makes your callousness so disturbing for those of us who still have souls. We’re human and you no longer are. And that makes you a monstrosity to us. We’re not “offended” so much as revolted by the sight of you. You’ve become the spiritual equivalent of a maggot eaten corpse. You are a grotesquery, a morally disfigured beast.

just as israel will blame everything solely on satanyahu to try and engineer a new status quo w a liberal zionist govt who will be just as ruthless, our elite are going to try to pin the last decade on trump alone when the dust settles. for trumpism to perish, we need real structural change.

Notice everything on this list is just returning to a 2023 status quo. It’s exactly what we said it would be. “No, nothing affirmative. No vision. But we’ll restore the subsidies.”

Hearing an elected politician plainly state that corporations buy politicians from both parties is like one of three things that actually gives me hope
James Talarico traces 50 years of trickle-down back to one 1971 document, the Powell memo, a corporate blueprint to buy power
“In fact, you can, you can pinpoint this one document called the Powell memo, 1971.”
“But if you read this memo, it's basically a blueprint for how corporate interests can start to dismantle the Great Society and the New Deal”
“They're going to spend massive amounts of money in our politics, buying politicians in both parties, elevate corporate voices in media, appoint sympathetic judges.”
“And that has really been the story of the last 50 years in this country, last five decades.”

I think main political story of next two years is going to be Democratic leadership’s efforts to do almost nothing while pretending to do a lot (but golly gee, they just couldn’t get it done). And how they’re going to get caught by their own voters! Just like Trump got caught.

66% want Medicare for All
61% want a billionaire wealth tax
57% want a $20/hour minimum wage
63% want a data center moratorium
58% want to end military aid to Israel
73% want to ban super PACs
79% want a 10% credit card interest rate cap
No more excuses. Democrats must deliver.
the vicar retweeted
Let Trump veto every wildly popular proposal like Medicare for all and then you make all your campaign ads about it for 2028 to win the White House. It’s so logical and obvious.
Why wouldn’t Democrats just go with that easy winning strategy? Unless they’re funded by interests opposed to giving us all healthcare 🤔
