On the Democratic Constitution Blog, @overallsthinker argues that "in this era of constitutional crisis, imperialist war, presidential despotism, and mass incarceration, we should all have the courage to take up the task of finishing the unfinished democratic revolution."

In Light and Air, YS Khaleque argues that DSA must use the unpopularity of the Iran War to educate and agitate against the undemocratic state structure and in favor of socialist republicanism.

The U.S. Court of Appeals declares that the residents of Jackson, Mississippi, don't have a constitutional right to clean drinking water. In response, Michael M. argues the unelected judicial system doesn't have a right to exist.

Trump’s Department of Homeland Security is conspiring to throw out millions of mail-in ballots under the banner of “election security.” Nick D. argues that socialists must defend the right to vote while opposing the undemocratic system that enables presidential dictatorship.

[Marxist Unity Group @MarxistUnityDSA]

The Big Beautiful Bill that will kill working-class people, presidential terror squads, legalized corruption, & Jim Crow–era gerrymandering: these horrors are enabled by the current Constitution. Democratic socialism requires political power. We need a new constitution.

[Luke Pickrell @LukePickrell]

I respond to questions about @MarxistUnityDSA's democratic republicanism in this recent letter to @CosmonautMag.

[Luke Pickrell @LukePickrell]

Not since Eugene Debs and the Socialist Party of America has the U.S. left embraced the demand for a democratic constitution. In Democratic Left, I argue that @DemSocialists is making the right move.

Thanks to @CosmonautMag for publishing this article of mine analyzing the Federalist Papers. At the 250 anniversary of the American Revolution, it is important to understand what the Founders intended and how to move forward with a better Constitution.
