The big secret of “you need to win elections to do what you want” is the people saying that don’t want you do what you want after the election either
“Politicians should do what wins elections” is asinine for moral reasons but also, no one knows what will win an election! Yglesias et al keep acting like there’s some obvious set of policies or words that will guarantee victory but Harris basically did what they wanted and she lost.
4. Yglesias instead seems to implicitly argue that politicians should only do what wins elections, virtue be damned. One wonders what he thinks of those foolish 1850s abolitionists. As Condleeza Rice once said, politics is the art of making the impossible inevitable. That ain't this.

"Starbucks, the company, is behaving irrationally.
As more and more stores go union the companies shortsightedness will become glaring and indefensible.
It will become clear that Starbucks management is creating structural fragility."

The Oviedo Mitchell Hammock Starbucks joined the SBWU strike today - it’s time for Brian Niccols to stop stalling and finalize a union contract. We’ll hold the line until we have a livable wage and protections.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

Three weeks in and the Starbucks strike has grown to 3,000 workers.
On Black Friday, Starbucks workers expanded their ULP strike to 85+ cities.
Now, just 6 days later, the strike is growing AGAIN.
Hundreds of baristas are joining the Red Cup Rebellion today, alongside thousands already striking in 105+ cities!
