The Democratic Party must become an anti-establishment party ready to fight the moneyed interests and shake up the system on behalf of the vast majority of Americans.

This is the Lesson of the 2024 election.
Why Trump Won | Robert Reich
Should Democrats move to the right? Absolutely not. That's morally wrong and bad politics. The real lesson of 2024 is that Democrats must become an anti-establishment party ready to shake up the system on behalf of working people.

In one week:
- An unnecessary study to investigate a debunked vaccine conspiracy has been authorized.
- Federal grants to study vaccine hesitancy have been rescinded.
- False conspiracies regarding measles are been pushed by health leadership.
The scale of damage this is causing will last decades.

🚨Measles cases in the US surge 35% in ONE WEEK—now at 222 in 12 states.

We’re nearing last year’s TOTAL of 285, and it’s only March. Two deaths already, both unvaccinated. Texas is the epicenter with 198 cases.

The CDC’s weekly data lags, so the numbers are likely even higher.

“The man occupying our White House has made a life of corruption and criminality by exploiting norms of courtesy.” And for those who believe it’s their higher duty to follow norms of civility in this urgent moment? It’s the pathway to America’s demise.
