The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

Consumer spending just saw its biggest drop in 4 years. Jobless claims are rising, the S&P 500 is falling, and Trump’s tariffs are driving up prices. These reckless policies are pushing us toward recession.
