No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

One last thing: If AOC runs against Schumer, she will win.
Democrats need to make a hard left turn.
Mamdani has proven it is time.
The people of the United States are ready for politicians who will not just say they'lll fight for them, but will actually do so once elected.

Mamdani should be the canary in the coal mine for the neoliberal corporate democrats. An entire generation seems to feel in their bones that capitalism has failed them and none of them will be interested in messages of tax incentives and privatization. Socialism isn’t a dirty word for them.

I believe Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens have the pulse of the modern MAGA movement going forward.
You can laugh at them and dismiss them as cranks, but you have to pay attention to what they're selling.
This is what comes after Trump.

It’s important to remind ourselves that Trump is a SYMPTOM. Once he’s gone the hatred that placed him in office is still going to be alive and well and looking for another easy moron through which to find expression.

Very different from backing a challenger to the House Minority Leader.
I'd love to see Hakeem lose, but if Zohran backs a challenge every power broker in NY will work to scuttle his agenda from Day 1. It's a smart move for him, and frankly his people are gonna work against Hakeem regardless

I have the same job my dad had, but no way could I afford the house I grew up in now. My lifestyle is definitely worse than it would have been as an adult in the 80s or 90s. I think there are structural reasons for this that no politician could fix, but nostalgia is not always wrong.

Is this click bait? Or just willful ignorance?
Yes there is lower affordability today than before.
See-
Minimum wage stagnation
CEO to worker pay disparity
Buying power of middle class
Healthcare costs
Housing costs
Cost of college
Cost of raising child to 18 in 1980 vs 2025
Do your homework.

They aren't afraid of Mamdani, they are worried about what he would unleash among VOTERS. That those voters would say: "actually, we're not buying this centrist bullshit you've been shoveling for decades, we want something else." That's what's being litigated in these Dem elites are worried essays.

We need more of this, and from more people. Rolling your eyes as if to say "We all know how they are" (or worse, "Don't get distracted") has been a big strategic mistake. Democratic politicians have to meet the brutality of MAGA rhetoric with outrage--and then, when necessary, match it.
Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."
