Team, my job is to organize D- side money, I have seen bad ideas get funded and good ideas die on vine all based on how the resources move. Follow me for inside scoops. We’ve all got to get serious about how we fund at scale the depth of work needed to get out of this hell. ✌🏼

JUST POSTED: Everyone Is Wrong, our response to the recent series of arguments that – based on the hypothesis that Harris lost and Dems underperformed in 2024 due to (summarizing broadly) voters’ perceptions that Dems are too far left – Democrats need to move right to win.

I genuinely can’t believe what a hack piece of shit Alex Thompson has become. The US is run by a fascist regime and you’re spending your short time on earth digging into the Instagram followers of a state senator.
Truly pathetic behavior. No one should talk to this guy.

Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

Sharing this again because when Way to Win surveyed people who voted for Biden in 2020 and did not vote at all in 2024, "too far to the left" wasn't their critique.
Good morning friends, here's the first writeup of our poll. We'll have more about the details we're excited about and our podcast interview with Celinda - the genius pollster we worked with - posted shortly, so stay tuned!
EXCLUSIVE: Democratic voters who skipped the 2024 election favor candidates like Bernie Sanders and AOC. Polling shows they believe inequality is at the heart of America’s problems and health care should be available to everyone.

Back when Trump's team concocted the idea of gerrymandering Texas to try to save his ass after 2026, you know they never, ever, ever contemplated Dems doing this as a response

Passaic County is 43% Hispanic. Donald Trump won it. Mikie Sherril won it by 15%.
That new Republican map in Texas? It only works for them if they keep their Hispanic numbers.
Good luck.

AOC: We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind. It's not about Progressive. It's not moderate, it's not liberal. This is about do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And the assignment is you come together…

Flames on the side of my face as I think of all the D men so quick to rush to misogyny. Claiming woke/broke, instead of focusing on the people are broke! Trump knocked them over with a feather. Trump has NO mandate. Don't force me to bend to his version of the world, when we can build our own.

Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.
