People are hungry to be part of the fight for democracy and No Kings Day is a tool for growing the movement: https://www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=indivisible

The Democratic party needs to immediately appoint and support Shadow Cabinet Secretaries able to give press conferences and issue statements every single day.

Even the best strategy will not reach 100% of potential voters.

but Jeffries and Schumer's current "strategy" of doing absolutely nothing reaches 0%.

@miguelpergamon @gsymon @GottaLaff @petergleick

the context was "getting attention" and "informing voters" which can be done better or worse but never perfectly.

not trying, like, doing nothing, is a sure fire way to get super crappy results near zero (this is what they've been doing and those are their results).

Just listened to an interview with Simon Rosenberg, and I don't think I've ever heard a more imbecilic hour of idiotic takes on strategy.

He starts with "We gotta be ferocious in our opposition" which sounds cool, but before long he's saying "We gotta be disciplined about not criticizing our leaders when they capitulate."

He's wrong. The solution is to viciously ostracize Deadwood Democrats who even suggest the possibility of capitulation.

How on earth could any intelligent member of the resistance think we should listen to fucking morons like who are telling us we gotta capitulate???

People like Simon can serve their country best by shutting up and going away forever.

We must get rid of all this dead wood. The people who lost every single battle of the last 20 years have to shut up and go away. They failed. Their ideas did not work.

We have to start doing THE OPPOSITE of everything that Pelosi, Biden, Schumer, and all the rest of the useless losers did over the last 10+ years.

Simon's newsletter is called "Hopium". Is it possible to choose a worse name? Oh, yeah, that bunch of Obama advisors called their outfit "Crooked Media" - Maybe they have some skills but these morons couldn't do PR to save their lives.

Kim Kardashian has a fake eyelash with more marketing talent than these idiots.

Marc Elias is right. We need a new opposition movement.

For us to succeed as New Opposition Movement we have to be brutally honest with ourselves, and brutally honest with our fellow citizens.

We need to cast aside some old paradigms which were an anchor around our necks. We have to stop thinking like a very wealthy 84-year-old recovering from a hip-replacement in a marble palace in Luxembourg and start thinking like a 35-year-old waitress from the Bronx who actually fights for the good of our country.

Funding Israel means funding genocide.

That's a bit of brutal honesty you probably don't like.
