Nooooo! Can't be anymore done with them than I am now -- it's just all wrong. Repeated failure becomes complicity.
May all of these centers for propping up American centrist liberalism (conservatism) rot.
NEW: Before the recent Epstein disclosures, Larry Summers was poised to lead the economic policy plank for the Democrats' "Project 2029" effort at the Center for American Progress. He signed off on a housing policy paper CAP was prepping for next week.

"In 2024, the Crime Victims Fund and matching state dollars provided assistance to more than 7 million people."

There is not a US jurisdiction that will avoid significant consequences. Read the article & also contemplate the wider brutality & injustice of this rogue admin. Every community at risk.
While Trump declared “unending support to every victim of crime,” his administration abruptly canceled $72 million worth of grants intended to support crime survivors. bit.ly/483zmiY

Those rooting for the death of filibuster with enthusiasm about what Dems would push thru, haven't been paying attention to the current iteration of the Dem party.

*As they stand right now*, they're not riding in to save us. Only citizens participating in primaries can do that.

Civil society has to hold together and pull forward until the Democratic Party changes. It makes no sense to wait for the Democrats as a party. What makes sense is shifting the ground underneath them.
From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Epstein survivor Haley Robson is saying what survivors have lived in silence: it’s enraging to watch Maxwell get grace, platforms, & preferential treatment while survivors get nothing. A system built to protect the powerful and abandon the people they hurt: corruption in real time.

Advice from someone who lived it: Find a senior with a paid-off house, extra room and who could use help around the house. Trade for housing/utilities which are your biggest expenses as a 20-something. If the personalities are compatible, it could be a win-win situation for you both.

Media standards:

1) No Democratic scandal on par with Trump-Epstein, so it’d be biased and unfair to five it much attention.

2) Trump wouldn’t be shamed into resigning and his cult of personality wouldn’t abandon him, so Trump-Epstein wasn’t worth pursuing.

Way too many think that’s journalism.
