Much Democratic establishment whining about socialists accuses the Left of dark, underhanded methods. The opposite is true: socialists are winning because of a commitment to democratic organizing that centrists are unwilling or unable to do.

The centrist Searchlight Institute has released a health care policy proposal with the hope that Democratic candidates will adopt it. The grab bag of policies is internally contradictory and cruel in places — and fails to insure everyone.

On August 1, I was blocked by 16 people. I need to figure how I did that and maybe I can sell the recipe.
"If we can demonstrate that campaigning on truth and courage can win in Michigan, it can win anywhere."

James Baldwin was born on this day in 1924. Baldwin was many things: a brilliant writer, a trenchant social critic, a dogged activist. He was also an unapologetic radical.
One of my many cohosts Rob 😂 @robcrank68.bsky.social has said that: “ Today's #BirdOfTheDay is #BestOfJuly so no need for an Alt Theme. “ I’m going with this young Stonechat as I loved how the colours of the bird blended with everything. #birds #photography #ECK

It’s fun when people tell me I’m wrong about the photo I took from the location I know and the scenery I’ve verified. You may not know “your mountain” as well as you think you do. 😂😂😂🤦🏻
As opposed to Mt Ranier today. Same shot location. 😂 I spelled it correctly today. 🤦🏻
Got lucky. Mt Ranier will probably be cloudy the rest of our time here but it wasn’t last night.
