Matt Stoller: “..Trump & Mamdani defeated establishment in their own way, representing hunger of voters on the right & left who want something different. If those sides cd come together.. that would be a sea change in how we organize our political economy”.

Monopoly Round-Up: Why the Establishment Freaked Out Over a Mamdani-Trump Press Conference

It’s always bittersweet when you look at your child and you see a new feature - physical or otherwise - and you think “oh, hello, new version - who will you be?” and you know you’ve said goodbye forever to who they just were

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.
Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.
