You are delusional! Enjoy your pathetic cowardly hallucinations…

Fair enough but if it’s him or Janet or Susan C I’ll take him.

It’s a garbage party.

Kids have been politicized by the DHS/ICE harassment—the school walkouts are a national movement already. Never been a better chance to nudge them into the ranks of soon-to-be voters.

Try being bi coastal and flying via red eye…..permanent disorientation!

How about rep Tom Suozzi pumping his Palantir shares by using his congressional vote?
Let’s get him out.

The process you are describing is happening all over as folks energize, and are energized. This movement catalyzed by brave folks should end up being a broad grass roots coalition from which visionary new leadership can emerge, and win a ton of elections for generations. THIS IS the ground game.

Doubtless liptak will be on The Daily, NYT podcast, next week spouting this line…

This is a SALIENT issue upon which a broad opposition Coalition has already formed. The so called‘opposition’ consultants may not notice, but the people have a Ground Game already. Our new brave leadership will emerge and win us some elections. DNC et al into the dustbin.

See Corey Robin’s FB posts today, delving into the divisions among the Right, and the historical context…

How about even more ‘cleaver’.

The Antikythera Mechanism

There must be a nationwide coordinated movement to resist the takeover of these facilities. Local leaders can help cement together an Infrastructural Obstacle to the scourge of hate and oppression. All these towns need to be on a Zoom call together.

The DNC does not have a feel, or a plan, for the grass roots movement that we’re seeing in MPLS and elsewhere. They’ll blow this chance—the mennonites et al, protesters, school kids walking out: These Folks ARE the Ground Game.
Knit this coalition tight across the country, consultants be darned.

Brings to mind a @wfmu.bsky.social DJ of yesteryear who devoted about 7 minutes of his hour long show to the intro music/collage….

Context of the clip shows that he wasn’t being literal, but also he spewed a whole series of fallacious assumptions: restricting ice via tighter rules will cause better behavior and fewer deaths—-basically disprovable by so called reality.

Someone slide a pointer to this podcast(?) online, thanks. A link or a way to search?

Maybe profs would like to Receive an honorarium. Lord knows all except tenured are teaching under penurious terms.

This crap is going nowhere. The momentum is with the movement arising from the streets and the schools. Folks are defending their neighbors and building community. Students are marching. Teach-ins for Resistance are occurring all over. Candidates Will Emerge from the movement. Think tanks are done.

It’s up to us coast to coast, to wake like a sleeping giant and link hands ‘hood to ‘hood, in militant LOVING defense of our neighbors—-then we gotta get this movement electing brave new leadership. No more DC focus group coward candidates—-we can sweep the fascists OUT for a few generations.

Not only are immigrants great but —self interest and self regard: we Feel Great About Ourselves when we loudly and actively DEFEND our neighbors. Folks in the streets doing the Right thing and building Community, and Feel Good when doing it, that’s why it’s spreading like wildfire.

Folks everywhere are inspired by the folks in Minneapolis and elsewhere who are putting asses on the line to Defend Neighbors. This is a LayUp for any Dem politician. If pols don’t seize this moment we’ll get fresh brave leaders.

Well put!

Cory Doctorow’s essay just last week was an assertion that the Democrats should form a Nuremberg Caucus and start documenting everything, yesterday, and speaking out loudly and specifically about the coming accountability.

Cory Doctorow wrote an essay a few days ago stressing that we need in Congress a Nuremberg Caucus.

Yes. This is a nationwide movement of Love, and defense of neighbors. This is super resonant and a permanent coalition can be built. We need to knit our neighborhoods together hand in hand all across the nation.
Brave elected leaders will emerge from this, and win races.

Guess there’s Liz Cheney or similar to build your coalitions with. ‘Relieved’ your priorities are clear…

Epstein: Israel/Mossad/arms/intel. Anyone who can read can see that he was a human hub, an intermediary. His associates’ identities and ideologies didn’t need to even matter. Business was business.

Hasan is cool. He’s ok. The rest of us are charisma-challenged dorks who are basically shouting into the void.

Why are you obsessed with Hasan anyway? Surely you have more important stuff to do, like the rest of us do: building community, and solidarity, and infrastructure for actual effective resistance—-beyond just elections and candidates and focus group vetted legislation? Right?
