The media is quiet about the fact that Bernie Sanders is selling out massive venues with rallies all over the Midwest right now. He's not running for President, he's just telling people the truth and it's resonating with MOST Americans. While the Democratic leadership is selling out the American people, progressives are seeing a chance to get their popular message out. If Bernie backs a candidate for the next POTUS, they have a good chance. 🇺🇸

Elon Musk Is Trying to Buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court

“His attack on democracy isn’t limited to gutting the federal government. He wants it all.”

"a #DarkMoney group backed by #Musk, is spending at least $1.6 million in support of #Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel, a conservative judge in suburban Milwaukee running for an open seat in an April election that will decide whether #progressives or #conservatives control the #court."

I'm not a fan of Rachel Shabi and disagree with her a lot, including with parts of this article. But she is circling an important recognition of the left ceding the ground of antisemitism to the right. To all our detriment.

"With the #farright in ascendancy across the world, #Jewish people turned to leftist movements that had long served as our political homes—and found them not only lacking the language to speak to what was happening but also often mired in ignorance over #antisemitism. As American communications specialist Sharon Goldtzvik told me: “We as #progressives should be leading on the issue of antisemitism, but it has become a critical vulnerability, rather than a critical strength.’” This Achilles heel has been seized upon by the #rightwing, derailing #progressive #movements and thwarting efforts at social, economic, and climate #justice across the world."
