"Detailed policy positions are great, but if people don’t understand you or relate to you, your policy positions are worthless. Democrats need to stick with simple messages and then repeat, repeat, repeat."

Yup.
It's amazing what people will do to ignore basic facts.
Name so we can shame.
Liberal policies succeed.
Conservative policies fail.
It really is that simple.
Unfortunately, too many of us need a refresher course on this very basic fact and we all have to take that class again. 😒
I'm with George.
And as a former pizza delivery guy, I want to bring you lots and lots of tasty pizza. And I won't even need you to tip me.
Yeah, we need alarms on Project 2025 and the other crap that they're trying to throw at us. No argument there.
But as the MBA grads say, the underserved segment of the market is the fightback and the roadmap to victory. When everyone else is selling burgers, sell pizza.
I'm going to be more active here eventually, but right now there are way too many annoying takes flying around, even in a nice place like this.
One drum that I will bang like the entire drum corps is how to fight back, especially exploiting the enemy's weaknesses. That's good information to have.
"If we are to have another contest ... of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition, and ignorance on the other." -- Ulysses S. Grant, 1875
Hey, everybody? We're in this contest now. Act accordingly.
Awesome! I gotta dig out my shirt and start sporting it around town more.
What's the protocol on that here? I know people got bent out of shape at the bad place sometimes at being put on a list, and I don't want to get blocked by someone I'd like to follow and value enough to put on a list. What is the etiquette for lists here?
By that, I mean all 1,400+ of you are great, but it would be nice to break out, say, the economists I follow and see what they're talking about and reading in one fell swoop. Or the friends I know IRL. Or my fellow sportsball fans on game day. You get the idea.
Question for the floor: How do lists work around here? I never used them much at the bad place, but I like it a lot better here than there and maybe even Farcebook, so I'm wondering if I can use it to curate my feeds.
"They want you to feel powerless and surrender and let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I. The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving." -- Rebecca Solnit
A reminder:
Mmmm. Not seeing it, but maybe someone else is.
Important reading.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
START NORMALIZING THAT WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THINGS INSANELY DIFFICULT FOR THEM!

Wow! I've pretty much quadrupled my followers since the middle of the day Saturday! Welcome one and all!
And as long as I've got your attention, I just want to say one very important thing:
QUIT !@#$ING NORMALIZING THAT THEY'RE UNSTOPPABLE!
WOW. I've picked up nearly 400 followers this weekend! Thanks to all of you!
I'm just going to say it's up to us -- and those of us beyond here who we can make common cause with -- to save this country and this world. So let's get to it.
whooooops
Huh. Do tell!
So, the GOP is talking about prosecuting Jack Smith.
Like they impeached Joe Biden? www.youtube.com/shorts/32fzO...
