I’m frankly suspicious of Third Way and UFTR. As a former intelligence analyst who’s worked in Ukraine and Russia both seem to target those in a broad coalition against Trump and fascism from different angles acting as corrosives. Dems who aren’t far enough in their corner are as much the enemy. Moderate Dems are sometimes treated as much the enemy as the Proud Boys.
Eerily reminiscent of Weimar German’s 1932 elections where the center right, center, left and far left spent as much time attack... more
Max tells economics like it is on Main Street, not Wall Street. He brings high energy, sound bites from politicians and pundits, and sarcasm to the world of policymaking and how decisions made up top affect us down at the bottom.
