We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.
A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.”
Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

This Jack Smith deposition makes one thing abundantly clear:
If Donald Trump wasn’t re-elected, he’d be spending the rest of his life in prison.
And he should be.

I personally don't like the term "herd immunity" because it makes me feel like livestock.
I prefer "community immunity" not just because it brings up feelings of being in it together, but it also has pizzazz and a sense of fun. Super sellable.

Lotta people arguing over a piece many probably haven’t read. This 👇 is a gift link.
Reading about MTG’s journey and discussing it doesn’t mean you ignore what she’s done in the past or her current views that you loathe. But it does offer insights for why MAGA is fracturing.

1/Robert Draper put years of working sources into this piece and it's a doozy. MTG trashes MAL face, but also genuinely seems to have had a road to Damascus moment re Trump and the news sources that fed many of her beliefs. ( She's still very anti trans though) www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/m...

Would be interesting to know how many of those "media interviews completed" were on Fox, Sinclair, etc. Also, no in-person townhalls where people could call Wittman out for his lies, b.s., etc. Vote him out in November! bluevirginia.us/2025/12/tues...

This is the most effective propaganda that the GOP has going for them. And it's been so ingrained & brainwashed into Republican voters that nothing anyone says will change their minds.

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”
