Anyway, it is true that democracy will be on the ballot in 2028. But it'll be on the ballot for Democrats well before the general. And the party's task is creating democracy, not defending it. That demands both an attentiveness to structural politics and a willingness to defend the equality of all.

At a comedy show, Mahmoud Khalil told Zohran Mamdani, “I am excited about the possibility of raising my son in a city where you are mayor.” It was a stunning moment, Hanif Abdurraqib writes.

Interesting to watch this man be presented as a puzzle and as someone deranged because of the act of killing, which when done on an individual basis is seen as monstrous, but no one can pretend that killing is so rare to be so, or that it’s viewed as monstrous when it’s formalized.

Harris will get between 85-90% of Black men’s votes. “The “problem” in this country is how the *majority* of white people vote. The force holding this country back is the *majority* of white people. The people who have turned against democracy are the *majority* of white people.”
Black Men Will Vote for Harris—White Men Are the Problem
Why is the media talking so much about the fraction of Black men who might go MAGA when more than 60 percent of white men will vote for Trump?
