Hard to overstate how gratifying it is to see @JamesTalarico talk about the Powell Memo right after the @LeverNews podcast/book MASTER PLAN on that memo went viral. You truly love to see it.
James Talarico traces 50 years of trickle-down back to one 1971 document, the Powell memo, a corporate blueprint to buy power
“In fact, you can, you can pinpoint this one document called the Powell memo, 1971.”
“But if you read this memo, it's basically a blueprint for how corporate interests can start to dismantle the Great Society and the New Deal”
“They're going to spend massive amounts of money in our politics, buying politicians in both parties, elevate corporate voices in media, appoint sympathetic judges.”
“And that has really been the story of the last 50 years in this country, last five decades.”

Keisha Lance Bottoms will be the first Democratic governor of Georgia since 2003. Her win is "basically the result of over a decade of organizing," says Emory University professor Carol Anderson. democracynow.org/2026/11/4/k…

virtually every democrat regardless of faction ran against the establishment, if they do not deliver tangible & immediate changes inside the party like appointing dynamic leaders that will echo the fighting spirit the moment requires, we will lose the momentum - voters will see this as a betrayal. no amount of msm narratives around schumer's tactical prowess will change this. there's a reason why both hakeem & chuck are unpopular among dem voters. we didn't forget how they maneuvered around the last two years.
we also have to destroy the seniority structure in the party & appoint competent people to the right committees!! zohran proved that a young dynamic figure can reshape the entire political landscape! i am very worried that "insider politics" and corporate focused leadership decisions is going to take us back to business as usual politics when we voted for CHANGE. we voted for a FIGHT. we voted for ACCOUNTABILITY.

All kinds of retribution. He'll try to put you on a bad committee where you have no leverage. He'll make sure no money goes to your district. He'll make sure your legislation never gets a floor vote and will work to block others from co-sponsoring it.
Basically, he'll try to make you a pariah in Congress. So I understand why new members would be afraid to go against him! But flip side is - anyone who does do it will be an instant hero nationally and can use that popular power to overcome whatever retribution Jeffries does.

Most Democratic voters want to replace Schumer, polling since 2025 consistently shows. This is not some fringe or "progressive" position. I'm not even sure it's primarily ideological. Schumer is 75, stumbles while speaking, was hospitalized last year - he's not up to the job

to all of the "knowledgeable professionals" who scolded Michigan Democrats for electing AES because Haley Stevens was so much more electable you owe those voters an apology. and those voters kept us from having the next Joe Manchin/Kyrsten Sinema team to block progress

Is Chuck Schumer exciting? No. Does he take risks? Of course not. But do his experience and acumen make him EXACTLY the man democrats need to most effectively wield this unprecedented mandate? Jesus christ, no

Hakeem Jeffries stands for Israel more than Black America and plenty of us don't want him.
But thanks for weaponizing Black identity on behalf of interests OTHER than Black folk, white woman.

This orchestra leader highlighted Haley Stevens for Michigan and Janet Mills for Maine, so maybe it's time for a new leader.
