the day? If he doesn’t have the smarts or savvy to do it, hire a spokesperson for Dems to combat the nonsense from Leavitt.

Dems can’t get on the same messaging page because we have no messaging operation. It’s that simple, and it’s pathetic.

Soft secession

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.
Experts Say Blue States Can Stop Paying Federal Taxes. There’s Precedent
If we could use nullification for people to get high, why can’t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism?

Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.

Tim Kaine and the others bought the lie that Republicans would negotiate on extending the ACA subsidies. They won’t.

Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

Americans are more worried about affordability than community—except Trump-voting men. New polling from Data for Progress, provided exclusively to the Prospect, casts doubt on the notion that Dems should punch the left. From @ryanlcooper.com: trib.al/oWj4N1y
Voters Did Not Understand the Stakes in 2024 - The American Prospect
A large majority of American voters are greatly dissatisfied with the state of things, most especially the economy. It turns out that median voters were catastrophically misled about the stakes of the election last year.
