fear of doing politics is going to sink us
across this site there are many people who seem to think that the best way to do politics is to give up at every possible turn

Much of this is was the Obama White House’s fault. They had built a massive organizing 50-state machine, OFA, and then they decided they didn’t need to organize people— their policies would be popular and that would convince people.

Something that would be popular and help achieve this is a law requiring disclosure of rich people’s assets and income.

Jake Sullivan is the worst Democratic foreign policy staffer since Vietnam.
He and his people should be nowhere near power ever again, after their Gaza failure which brought us Trump and fascism. Give him the McGeorge Bundy career and shuffle him off…
