Oct 28, 2025This week began with the release of a report titled “Deciding to Win,” claiming to light the way “toward a common sense renewal of the Democratic Party.”
But the first mention of healthcare is so far from reality that the authors might have more accurately titled their report “Deciding to Lie.” The report declares that Medicare for All is in the category of “unpopular economic policies.” The claim is false. But it’s in sync with the corporate sensibilities and wishful thinking of party operatives like James Carville, whose praise of the document appears on its first page.
Yes
Those folks are well funded so they will not step away from power without a fight.
Yeah, it’s funny how the people with the most funding are the ones in charge and the people whose policies the majority agree with are constantly maligned as unhinged and impractical radicals!
It’s almost like the system itself (which the funded politicians revere with literally religious fervor) is undemocratic and inherently favors the moneyed elite over the will of the people in general 🤔
The DNC will fight anyone that plans to be the next FDR.
