This is the closest thing to the start of a project 2029 document I've seen. Democrats desperately need a plan like this and, just as importantly, the balls to execute it.

There should be at least one post like this a day with 20k shares. The public will never get behind it if we keep tip-toeing around it.
The California man who won the record $2.04 billion lottery took home $628 million after taxes; now let's tax billionaires like that.

I have a particularly ambitious holiday market schedule coming up. I’ll be staying in production and bringing new things throughout the season. Is there anything in particular you are hoping to find from me this holiday season?

They know that there is cultural capital associated with “Western Civilization”. But they do not actually understand or appreciate the cultural works that they know make up that cultural categorization, they just valorize it as a symbol. Apes do read Nietzsche, they just don’t understand it.

The list of centrist/establishment Dem failures over the decades that have led to horrific consequences in the world is honestly brutal. Making another one here could literally end the republic.
agreed. it's "the guy who makes you uncomfortable for reasons you won't articulate isn't the future. this guy who looks and talks like you is."
You have to understand what pieces like this from the NYT are and are not.
They are not an honest assessment of the state of politics today.
They are a negotiation tactic—an effort by a calcified, right-leaning legacy institution to steer the discourse in a direction more palatable to elites.

Schumer represents the Democratic Party that no longer works and we don’t need.
Khanna: And then it’s awfully convenient that those eight senators happen to be the ones who aren’t up in 2026—and they’re all consulting Schumer. People are sick of this. That’s why I called on Schumer to step down.
