“Let us be clear: we want the power of the state. We wish to hold the criminals of the regime accountable. We wish to seize back the public funds looted by Trump and his cronies. We wish to undo the damage he has done to the government. More than any of that we wish to rebuild.”
From Powerlessness to Power
We will not achieve any of our ultimate goals without exercising state power, and the most effective way to take state power is through nonviolent but confrontational resistance.

this particular line is maybe the best statement of purpose i have seen for those of us who want a more militant opposition to this administration

my increasingly curmudgeonly take is that we all, in fact, have responsibilities. politics isn't an arena for self-actualization. it's an arena for public service. this is as true of voters as it is of politicians.
Ps: a common refrain that you'll hear is that "you're saying the Dems can't be at fault, it's the voters, as if the voters owe something to politicians and not the other way around!"

Yes, actually, that's how the social contract of democracy works. Voters yet the government they work for. Or don't.

A heck of a chart: in every single one of the 10 major US cities that built the most housing between 2017 and 2023, rents for older, existing units fell—often by quite a bit.

And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.

Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.

Again, we learn that most people can make sensible decisions regardless of their level of income or wealth. Trouble is, many politicians base their careers on the myth of the irresponsible poor

I'm a little worried that the media frenzy around the second strike on the shipwrecked is masking the more important fact that every single strike is illegal
Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) says Pete Hegseth should "resign immediately" if it's true he gave a directive to “kill everybody” in a strike on boats in the Caribbean, including a second strike to kill survivors of the first strike.

“If the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime."

Somehow missed this, but @indivisible.org is doing a version of what I proposed they could! They announced a primary program against non-fighter Dems. Interestingly, they’re being more bold than I proposed they could be and already taking sides, especially anti-Schumer.

TLDR: No Kings could be the Tea Party of the left, candidates should harness the momentum.

Earlier this year, frustration with elected Democrats led to calls for a “Tea Party on the left” to similarly disrupt the status quo.

I think what a lot of this anger and angst is coming from is the belated realization and denial that by losing in 2024, certain faster, more satisfying paths out of this were curtailed. the range of outcomes moved closer to disaster than salvation, and the only way out is through.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Look, they do not have the capacity or competence to do this at the scale they want you to fear they do, and your fear is precisely their greatest force multiplier. Everybody who is cowed into silence by their threats allows them a smaller pool to focus on.

It absolutely matters here that Pritzker was effective at sounding the alarm and plainly stating this would be unconstitutional in a profoundly radical and fundamental way, and showing he could rally practical popular opposition, which then gets spun as backing out over "legal headaches."

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

It's important for the next Democrat running for president to put the Supreme Court in their crosshairs, but it's only half of the problem with governance. Pair it with "Congress has to do their jobs" and frame it as "Restoring Checks and Balances" as part of a larger Rebuilding America agenda.

It is worth noting that the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" is incredibly unpopular. I haven't seen a single credible poll with support above 40% of adults.

And that's just if you ask people, "Do you support the OBBB." If you poll them about the individual components, it's 30+ points underwater.
