Obviously Trump hasn’t helped himself with the tariffs but fundamentally people want the price level to come down and the only clear way for a president to do that is engineer a recession (which he may very well do!)

This is why democrats fail, there's enough centrists willing to sell out to the republicans on critical issues that it alienates their largest voting block, Millennials.

We want action, progress, reforms and resistance. The cruelty of the GOP cannot be tolerated.
Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

ICE now has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world and has increased spending on weapons.

It's also engaging in a race to recruit 10,000 new agents who will eventually be out in American streets.

Some will be vetted, but how many unqualified recruits will fall through the cracks?
