If you’re a Dem elected and you’re not mentioning the massive cuts to cancer cure and social security funding in every public appearance you’re just not doing your job.

Looking at some survey data here. Trump/Elon cutting off all cancer cure research is the issue that freaks voters out more than any other, also the one they've heard the least about. Important for voters to hear more about this.

Apparently it’s now legal for Republican Members of Congress to assault women in Washington DC.
The DC police last week sought to arrest a sitting member of Congress, a Florida Republican, for physically assaulting a woman in DC. But the US attorney’s office didn’t sign off on it. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/f...
Florida congressman investigated for alleged DC assault as police probe their own handling
D.C. police confirm they are investigating an alleged assault by Florida Rep. Cory Mills, a Republican representing a district northeast of Orlando, calling it an active criminal investigation.

They dont need to pick their battles. The democrats have been doing that my entire life and they are shit at choosing which battles to pick. They should pick all the battles and fight on all fronts: rhetoric, policy, nominations — all of it. That’s their g-d job.
I think they realize that it’s hard to paddle upstream without a paddle.
I think what they need to do is pick the battles that they might win on and let everything else go.
Recruit Democrats to win over seats to take back congress in mid terms.
Then King Trump and President Musk will hate congress.

It is the position of the administration that a post saying “Free Palestine” or talking about diversity should ruin your life, but a post calling to hate people from India should not. That’s their moral sensibility. Nazi scum.

The right-wing has been priming Americans to think of population wide gains in freedom and equality as potentially ill-gotten; a theft against those who are already living with a full suite of rights. It's why attacks on DEI work. The Dems/the left must emphasize that this is a theft of Civil Rights
It's also notable how manufactured this whole panic has been. DEI can be a little silly but it's been a fixture at American corporations since the 1990s. The only reason we're all talking about it constantly is that right-wing media decided to pretend it was left-wing tyranny.

So instead of Democrats pointing out that Trump gutted the FAA and tried to mass-fire them the day before the crash, we have Trump flooding the airwaves with the idea that it's DEI's fault. Dems are simply not cut out for this media environment. Too slow, too cautious, too boring, too staid.

I fear Trump included 18-year-olds as a test to see if the courts will uphold restrictions on transgender adults’ health care. If so, he may try to expand these restrictions to all age groups. Targeting minors may be a tactical, temporary move.

there are a lot of valid criticisms of DEI, but none of those matter because when Rufo and company talk about "DEI" all they actually mean is "the hiring of black people and women"
DEI was an active impediment to the project of building a multiracial working class movement capable of taking on corporate and oligarch power. Rufo did the left a favor in nuking it.
