This was a great read. We deserve better leaders in the Democratic Party.

In late 2024, the Heritage Foundation quietly launched Project Esther, a 12-24 month blueprint to destroy progressive movements, starting with unraveling Palestine solidarity. This plan is already underway.

For decades, liberal humanitarianism argued that the international community should take military action against states engaged in extreme human rights abuses.

Well, there’s no way to argue that Israel isn’t exactly such a state.

Centimillionaires and billionaires infesting OUR White House is nauseating. They represent under 0.003% of our population and now they run everything. It is no longer a government of the people, for the people; it is a government of the obscenely rich to get obscenely richer. We need #revolution

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.

In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.

And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.
People on this app get really angry every time I point out that social media manipulation is a real phenomenon that we are all stewing in and that’s having real world consequences and I’m sure part of that is engagement farmers who do that manipulation not liking people talking about it

Here's the truth about tax cuts for the rich.

They explode the federal debt, fuel giant profits at the biggest firms and financial institutions, and stoke a surge in billionaire wealth but do nothing for average working people.

Nothing trickles down — and the tax cuts don't "pay for themselves."
You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism.

It's a lie.

Ballal helped make a work of art that has smashed through the sociopathy and contempt for Palestinian life that runs through ordinary political discourse. That is why Israel is didn’t rely on “discourse” to silence Ballal—it relied on violence.
By Targeting Artists and Journalists, Israel Is Trying to Kill the Truth
The recent targeting of Hamdan Ballal, Hossam Shabat, and Mohammed Mansour shows that Israel sees the truth as a threat to be eliminated.

No. Now is not the time to play dead.

The Democrats have already played dead for too many years.

60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck. Millions of seniors are going hungry.

Now is the time to stand up for the working class of this country.
