Great (long) post by Anat S. Our best leaders are those who have a strong set of principles and aren’t shy about saying so. www.weekendreading.net/p/bringing-a...

Quote from linked article
There is a pattern to breakout moments by Democrats: they are unapologetic. Jasmine Crockett’s frequent MAGA takedowns, Zohran Mamdani’s populism, Andy Beshear’s refusal to take the anti-trans bait, Chris Van Hollen’s trip to El Salvador, and J.B. Pritzker’s repudiation of the regime, to name a few.

Great interview and great advice from Shenker-Osorio here. We can’t wait for Democrats to figure out the new fight.

Text from the article:
And so to ask people to layer on another thing is a lot. And I think that what we are experiencing over and over again, and it's been happening for a while. It’s the frogs in boiling water problem, where we truly think this is a hot tub. And a little toasty, get a little cozy. But, you know, it's winter and a hot tub is nice and winter in most parts of the country. And I'm joking, but not by much.

Anticipating this is actually why it is absolutely so fundamental that we be crystal clear and that our leaders be crystal clear that what's happening is in fact what's happening because not every problem that is named can be faced, but zero problems that we refuse to name and refuse to recognize can actually be faced. And this is where I think the strategy of hat in hand, please, sir, may I have a tuppence begging Democrats to locate a spine is wrong. And we need to stop pushing in that direction.
