My general belief is that Dems need to spend more time thinking about what they believe and less about what they think some imaginary swing voters want them to believe.

Political strategy will stem from an authentic set of beliefs.
This was revealing. Worth reading. The basic demand is that Coates spend less time thinking/writing his true feelings and more time playing political strategist. Klein asks him over and over him to do Dem strategy; he says no, over and over. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...

The American Jewish community does not have an org we can rely on to accurately track, educate on, and combat antisemitism at the moment. The ADL has sacrificed us for Zionism. And declaring even “free Palestine” as antisemitic has muddied the convo so much the damage is awful

1977: we *have* to let the Nazis march in Skokie, IL because if we don't protect the worst fuckers on Earth we might be next!

New: Last month, a group of moderate Democratic consultants, campaign staffers, elected officials & party leaders gathered in Loudoun County, Virginia, for a retreat where they plotted their party’s comeback.

We got their takeaways. t.co/bEwlg4jbtM
