The National Horserace Today-- Still A Brutal Referendum On Trump

This week David Feldman and I invited progressive super-activist and author Norman Solomon to be out guest on David's radio show. Norman explained how important it is to concentrate on the swing states and how any progressives thinking of not voting for the conservative and unsavory Biden should just focus on the existential danger of another Trump term and do the right thing for the country.

Adam Christensen Won His Primary Tuesday-- Can He Flip Ted Yoho's Seat Blue?

On Tuesday we had some significant victories in the Florida primaries, especially for Florida legislature candidate Angie Nixon and for FL-03 congressional candidate Adam Christensen.

I posted it again because it so perfectly sets up the Lynn Vavreck and Christopher Warshaw NY Times story that correlates the Trump reelection campaign's disintegration so perfectly with his failed response to the pandemic.

Culture Of Corruption-- Mitch McConnell's Pandemic Relief Bill... And Plenty Of The Worst Dems In Congress Love The Worst Parts Of It

UnAmerican by Chip ProserHouse Democrats passed a $3 trillion dollar recovery and stimulus package in May. The Republicans' bill, finally revealed last night, was about a third of that-- and McConnell said, arbitrarily, that it will likely represent lawmakers’ last major legislative response to the coronavirus pandemic.
