In April 2009, the Washington Post asked 10 writers to make the case for something that deserves to be tossed out as part of "spring cleaning."
I chose Larry Summers.
Better late than never.

N95s can prevent more than just Covid!
They stop colds, flus and other airborne illness.
They’re also highly effective against pollen, pollution, wildfire smoke and environmental triggers.
Many maskers haven’t been sick in years.
Respirators are pretty amazing.

NOAA hurricane hunters flying aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft ("Kermit") are monitoring Hurricane Melissa as most aircraft steer clear. The storm poses a catastrophic threat to Jamaica and Haiti.
The crew are among the many federal workers working without pay during the US government shutdown.

The core of the argument that ran through the whole day was the need move past defensive politics into a compelling vision that speaks to people’s real lives. Affordability. Security. Stability. As Graham Platner said during the event, “the big things.” And the opposite of what Trump is delivering.

Our inaugural #Persuasion2025 DC event has drawn praise and stirred up opinions across DC. We partnered with the ad testing platform Swayable and invited a spectrum of voices to join us for a day of new thinking and finding a path forward. A 🧵, and stay tuned for clips and session video.

If every candidate is meant to run on their own "heterodox" positions, praised for running against the party agenda, then there is no party agenda against which to run. Also, there's no overarching story to tell - and barriers to low info, votes based on brand, voters to reach.

Magnetism is notion that if you want people to come to your cause, be attractive. This requires having a cause. It also means having a polarity that distinguishes you from opposition. You meet people at the place of their broadly shared values, not their podcast-promoted prejudices.

For the House - this means zero Dem votes for the CR.
For the Senate - it means zero Dem votes for cloture and force Republicans to bust the filibuster.
Put this entirely on MAGA to pass.

Thrilled to see growing consensus that Dems must step up in the Continuing Resolution fight. Key to doing so? Refuse to frame this as "shutting down government." Instead, call it what it is - refusing to be an accomplice to turning the government into a weapon against the American people.

In 2024, abortion beat the Democrat on the ballot in Florida (+14), Arizona (+15), Missouri (+11), Nevada (+16). In 2022, it gave us a "blue undertow" that staved off the full red wave.

Messaging fascist power grabs as "distraction" fails to recognize politics is a shouting match not a soliloquy. Pivot to "but our prices" means you're not going to be heard. Further, you have to prove not just Trump's hurting you, but that Dems would fight back.
