Third Way and Searchlight want to claim the mantle of "popularism."

But talk to voters in swing districts: there's nothing less popular than AI and data centers.

Sign of where things are going on the left: @workingfamilies.org today is unveiling a policy platform for 2026 that includes a federal jobs program designed in part to combat any AI-related job losses

Donald Trump’s threats to annihilate more than 90 million people are vile and reckless. We refuse to stand by while the sitting President of the United States threatens another genocide. Donald Trump must step down or be removed from office, and Congress must immediately return to DC to pass a War Powers Resolution to stop his war crimes in Iran.

What If Your Ideas Aren't Your Own? Propaganda doesn't just affect people on the right.

"These past several months... we have seen an uptick in discourse looking to discredit protest, along with targeting some of the left’s largest movement leaders and creators."

On how propaganda is infiltrating the left movement:

Deaths in ICE Custody Are Growing. ‘They Let Him Rot in There.’

What Defiance Looks Like The acts of defiance we should be lifting up are ones that everyday people can see themselves in

Rules-based international order is dead. And we’re all left watching Netanyahu and Trump tear up 70+ years of norms designed to prevent mass war and nuclear threats.

It's almost as if getting results and not being a total coward is more important than political moderation.

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

When I finished college 20 yr ago, what I really wanted to do was neighborhood organizing, but I couldn't find any such jobs paying a living wage. Today the situation's much better, but with the Right's $, we're still at a huge disadvantage. That's why for me building out govt capacity/jobs are key.

It’s the Jobs, Stupid Young people are facing a precarious economy. Only one side is taking that seriously.

Real banger today from @rynnreed.bsky.social on the right’s college-to-grave job pipeline and how the left is missing the target completely with young people.
