Across the country, voters support many of Zohran Mamdani's ideas, including:

-Increasing taxes on the rich
-Universal childcare
-Freezing rent
-Raising the minimum wage

Everything Democrats do must focus on enacting popular policies that help working people.

That is the path forward.

No Democrat should vote to keep the government open unless ACA funding is restored for the millions of Americans at risk of losing health coverage next year.

Remember that this funding is on the chopping block because Trump and Republicans want to give the richest Americans a giant tax cut.

Pennsylvanians are facing a Supreme Court retention vote that has major implications. GOP billionaires want to flip the PA Supreme Court & gut worker rights, abortion rights, & voter access.

Like any bully, Trump is fundamentally a coward.

When he feels humiliated, he lashes out.

Every authoritarian action he is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

He feigns strength, but he's operating from a place of weakness.

They want you thinking about Tylenol so you don't realize that yet another right-wing billionaire is about to acquire yet another media platform.

Let's compare two state-wide elections. One with hand count vote tabulation (MN) and the other with digital vote tabulation (NC).

This week’s main story is about what’s in Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” who it benefits, the vital programs it could defund, and who we think Mike Johnson should dress up as for Halloween.

If you’ve got 20 minutes, or even just 5 to listen to just some of the ways in which democracy is already very much under siege I’d recommend Chris Murphy’s latest floor speech. It’s never been more clear that we are hurtling towards a sham democracy.

I wrote about the worst people in the world, charting the depths of their depravity and vastness of their incompetence, and offered some thoughts about the opportunity presented by their failure to acknowledge reality and their refusal to access any form of human virtue.
