The Democratic Party is Responsible for the Election of Trump

1) In the 90s they started Globalization. Like Ross Perot warned, millions of jobs were lost, leaving millions of angry ex-workers.

2) No help was given them. The Bill Clinton administration could have enacted something like the GI Bill after WWII. Instead, those out of work were left to smolder for nearly 20 years, while the Dem Billionaires got richer.

3) Then came the 2008 crash with all its too easy to get mortgages. The Obama Dems didn't do one thing to help folks avoid foreclosure, or help after they lost their home. Instead, the Bank Bailout, passed under Bush, was implemented under Obama. Out of this came a whole lot more angry people.

4) Then the Dems cheated us out of Bernie’s candidacy in 2016. Polls showed he could have beaten Trump. This is because he spoke to those Victims of Globalization and Bankster Fraud who had become a voting block.

5) Hillary Clinton didn’t acknowledge those folks. But Trump promised them revenge, and got their votes in 2016. He made the same promise in 2024. The Victims of Globalization and Bankster Fraud, as angry and worse off as ever, gave him a Mandate to Break Stuff. This time he had the Project 2025 authors to tell him how to do that. Their program included terrorizing immigrants who had long been blamed for the losses of jobs, deflecting attention from the Dem, and Repub, Billionaires.

Today's Democratic Party is OWNED by Billionaires. They will only allow so much "resistance" to Trump and “reform” as squares with their financial interests. I.e., the Democratic Party can't and won't buck up against their Super Rich owners - individual officials couldn't get re-elected if they tried that.

Only a Party committed to the principles of Marxist Humanism can be relied upon to lead the way to real reform. The Party of Sanders, AOC, Mamdani, and others. The Party started by the Marxist Humanist, Michael Harrington, the Democratic Socialists of America can be trusted to stay on the right path.

So, start a branch in your neighborhood today!

RIP Prop 33 😭 What happened?

Why did Prop 33 lose in California? Here are three reasons, although there could be more:  1) Out of state billionaire real estate special interests, combined with in-state millionaire Landlord orgs, spent over $121,000,000 on telling scary falsehoods to Californians. Like, rent control will cause rents to go up, and affordable housing will disappear. They just needed to cause enough confusion about the meaning of Prop 33 to get the voters – even tenants! – to vote no.   2) As I explain in a vid on YouTube,* the California Legislative Analyst presented a biased and negative summary of Prop 33 in the Voter Guide. That was sent out to 22M Californians. For many voters, it was the one and only thing they would read about Prop 33. The law requires the Legislative Analyst to suggest the economic impact of a prop for both state and local gov – but only a negative view was given, and only for the state gov – “tens of millions” would be lost in tax revenues, it said. But renters w...

Does Political Science Force Graduate Students into a Career of Irrelevancy?

Introduction       In a 2014 New York Times op ed, columnist Nicholas Kristof drew numerous defensive responses when he criticized political science for having very little “practical impact” in “the real world of politics.” [1] Rather than exercising civic leadership, political science has been most noticeably AWOL from public policy debates since WWII, he claims. And, in his view, there are “fewer public intellectuals on American university campuses today than a generation ago.” How does he account for this absence? Primarily, it is due to the academic interest in pursuing the quantitative approach in political science research. This kind of research is too often unintelligible to both the politically interested general public and the policy making community. Also, the “value neutrality” required for such studies prohibits advocacy. The pattern persists, in part, because graduate students must conform to the expectations of their professors, as a requirement ...

One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This, by Omar El Akkad. A Book Review by a Fellow Traveler

How does it feel to live in a time when no one is stopping a genocide? That’s the question Omar El Akkad addresses in his new book,  One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. This book can be called a "personal memoir," as some reviewers have done, but not in a dismissive way. The author is sharing his consciousness, like in an intimate diary. He speaks to the reader as a recently naturalized citizen of the US, and as an immigrant from the Middle East (born in Egypt). He tells us about his personal experience of being baffled over how people in the West, especially in the US, can fancy themselves as exemplars of righteousness, and even supporters of the underdog, while letting their government supply a genocide. He shares his befuddlement without preaching at us. This is not a noisy protest. He doesn't rail against Israel's astonishing cruelty, nor chide the US for its complicity, but rather describes his personal experience as a person living in a world w...
