We are completely at the mercy of a cadre of mentally unstable billionaires

I think there is a way to fix this--but it starts with liberals building political institutions completely outside of elections. You have to build a brand identity around social engagement. Propaganda, social clubs, extreme pro-unionism, figure out media.

as the suburban strategy of abortion rights & Liz Cheney seems to have failed... recall the claim that the Bidenomics strategy re labor was a "failure" (even though it is a core party commitment!) because of supposed union vote erosion.

Harris is outperforming 2020 numbers with union members, according to AP Votecast exit data. She's up 57-39, which tracks with our internal data. Union voters turned out for Harris, that much is crystal clear

I don’t think we’re grappled enough with the psychic and dignity harm women have experienced in having a rapist elevated to a position of superlative power and authority by half the country and then kept there for the better part of a decade.

tbh I'm quite motivated by how much my mom will suffer, emotionally & otherwise, if Trump wins. Her life's work (legal aid) is hindered by GOP rule. But she also despises sexual assailants for good reason. Maybe your moms feel similarly; if they don't, please vote to spare mine.

"We vote for the ones we're best suited to fight."
We're not "co-signing a candidate" but rather "picking our opponent."
A great/smart/thoughtful statement from leftist radical organizers on how to approach voting this Tuesday.

Like I said. This ticket is predatory and people deserve better.

Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

He was once praised as a masterful orator & communicator. But he is literally doing here the opposite of what they wanted him to do: he is pushing more Michigan Muslim, Arab, & progressive voters *away* from Harris, with this one-sided, patronizing, ahistorical defense of Israel.

Bill Clinton: "…People in Michigan are thinking about not voting bc they're mad at the Biden admin…that's a mistake." "I got news for [Hamas]—[Israelis] were there first before their faith existed." Harris said she'll try to negotiate end to violence…"that oughta be enough."

This is the New York Times’ attempt to repeat the Comey letter from 2016. They are putting their thumb on the scale for Trump once again.

They put their own, historic exclusive from retired marine general John Kelly—Trump’s own chief of staff calling him a fascist and danger to America—on A12.
English
To quote Brian Beutler, "a country that just barely beats a fascist will remain on the brink of fascism, while a country that resoundingly defeats a fascist might stave off another stare-down with the abyss for years or decades." offmessage.net/p/run-up-the-s…

And yes, even if you don't live in a swing state, it is still important that you vote for Kamala! The margin of her victory (if indeed it does, God willing, turn out to be a victory) matters.

If you're on the left & are thinking of voting third party, or not voting at all, I STRONGLY urge you to watch this. Bernie makes an exceptionally compelling argument. Its moral clarity is bracing & its political logic is irrefutable.
