So NYT reports that Third Way is spending $15-million to discredit democratic socialism ahead of the presidential elections. “Their fear: Dr. El-Sayed was paving a path for a progressive to seize the party’s presidential nomination in 2028 — and then go on to lose the general election.”

Except that is not their real fear. Their real fear is that the left will go on to *win* the general election, and, like Mamdani in NYC, prove that the left can govern. They are willing to throw the general election to Republicans by smearing the left and dividing and demoralizing the Dem base to avoid that outcome.

How do we know they are willing gamble in this way? Because that's how Trump won the first time.

A wave of progressive populism is defying political gravity (ie big money) and upending primary season in the US. It’s exhilarating to witness.

Of course there are many factors shaping this shift, most unique to the US.

But there is an underlying feeling that we share in Canada, and its importance cannot be overstated.

People are furious with ultra rich, powerful elites.

The social contract has been broken. People who work for a wage or salary (not a dividend or bonus) just can’t make the household math make sense.

And we’re looking up at the unlimited wealth of the 1% and we are pissed.

This groundswell of populist rage is legitimate, and it’s a completely predictable consequence of our economic system and how it has been managed for the last 50 years.

The desire to push back against the smug arrogance and creepy impunity of elites is a defining force in politics today.

It will either be harnessed by progressive politics, to balance the scales of society and make a fairer economy for all…

Or it will fuel fascism.

That’s the choice. And happily, it's up to us!

Which is why I’m so grateful to be doing the work of rebuilding the NDP into a national fighting force for the working class, and to see so many people rushing through the wide-open doors of our movement.

You got a minimum wage worker of color fired for opposing a genocide. What a moral victory.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Congratulations to Will Lawrence, Donavan McKinney and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed on their historic victories last night.

Abdul took on the entire billionaire class, faced more than $60 million in spending against him, and WON.

Now let's beat Mike Rogers and take back the Senate.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Leftists accused of antisemitism (Mamdani, AES) go out of their way to say they love Jews and promise to protect them.
Conservatives accused of Islamophobia (Loomer, Fine, Tuberville, etc) proudly say ‘Yeah we don’t want Muslims here.’
Guess which ones the media covers intensely?

[Mark Ruffalo @MarkRuffalo]

Here’s the problem. When you put another country above the USA, when you are in the US government, no matter what you say, you aren’t working for the American people. Go be a lobbyist. Register as a lobbyist for a foreign government and make your living that way, but don’t take a paycheck from the US taxpayer. Get out of representing the people of the USA.

@MalloryMcMorrow @AbdulElSayed Thank you sis! This is how we win!

[Mallory McMorrow @MalloryMcMorrow]

Congratulations to @AbdulElSayed on winning the Michigan Democratic primary to be our nominee for US Senate. Abdul has my full endorsement and support.

This was a brutal primary (believe me, I know). And Trump and Mike Rogers are counting on us staying divided. Let's prove them wrong by beating Mike Rogers and taking our country back. 🇺🇸

🚨 BOMBSHELL! Sky News exposes a massive FIFA scandle.

Infantino secretly planned to sell a $4.2B World Cup stake to private equity overseen by Joshua Kushner, brother of Trump's son-in-law Jared.

He also tried to launch a crypto venture with Trump's son. Pure corruption!

[David Sirota @davidsirota]

There is a non-zero chance that the national Dem Party, its donors & its media will decide to abandon/sabotage populist anti-establishment Dem nominees in the upcoming general election.

Many in this corporate faction would rather such nominees lose - even if that means Dems losing the Senate & governorships - than see these candidates win.

Why? Because if these candidates win, they threaten to change the Democratic Party and make the corporate faction irrelevant.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Let’s make history and elect @AbdulElSayed 🙌🏽

[Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein]

The replies lol

[Clipping Wings @ClippingWings]

Abdul El-Sayed is asked on MSNOW if he is worried that his anti-Zionist messaging "echoes an old antisemitic trope"

Abdul: "The idea that somehow we are going to use the spectre of antisemitism to defend what a foreign government is doing, does a deep disservice to the well-being of Jewish Americans in this country."

Jackie Alemany: "You haven't made that same tradeoff argument with regards to other items in the US's 800 billion dollar defense budget"

Abdul: "Oh I have, you just don't cover it. No, No, No. I have. You just don't cover it. I'll say the same thing about the money we send to Egypt, which is where my family comes from. So if you want to go ahead and call me anti-Egyptian, go ahead and do that"
