Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

In the midst of a 40+ day Republican shutdown with major flight delays and being short 3,000 air traffic controllers, our INSANE President is ENCOURAGING ATCs to quit heading into the holiday season.

It’s a convenient cloak that the Trump and the GOP wears when they starve Americans so they can deny healthcare to others in order to fund tax breaks for the rich
It’s just part of the ‘let them eat cake’ mentality that exists in the White House

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

In a functional party system, this kind of capitulation in the face of authoritarianism could mean the end of the Democratic Party.
In our system, it could mean the end of the two party system. Neither party can represent the pro-democracy majority. It's time for something new.

1. A new guide has been released by some of the top names in Democratic politics encouraging Dems to act more like Republicans on "identity and cultural issues."
It becomes clear exactly what that means: queer and trans people.

More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.
