Indiana’s Progressives Must Unite!🌹
Across our State, corrupt corporate power is tightening its grip while an entrenched authoritarian Republican super-majority weakens organized labor, restricts our personal freedom, tries to shove organized religion and antiquated values down our children's throats in the public square, and shuts out the vast majority of Hoosiers from meaningful representation and political power.
We cannot defeat the Braun regime while divided.
Progressives, democratic socialists, labor organizers, leftists, environmentalists, civil-rights advocates, and every Hoosier fighting for liberty and resisting authoritarianism must recognize that our common struggle is greater than our ideological differences. We will not agree on everything, but we share a common enemy in corporate tyranny, economic exploitation, and the growing threat of far-right authoritarianism in our state.
The Indiana Socialist Solidarity Alliance, therefore, calls upon all Hoosier Leftists and Progressives to build a united front against fascism and the injustice of capitalism by promoting and advocating for genuine progressive and socialistic candidates who stand with working people, whether they run as a Democrat or as a 3rd party candidate.
Wherever an allied candidate is fighting corporate power, defending civil rights, organized labor, and challenging Indiana’s undemocratic super-majority, they should be able to count on the support of every true progressive and socialist statewide, regardless of organization or affiliation.
No organization, tendency, or individual can overcome this system by itself. Our opponents possess money, institutional power, and a political machine built over nearly 20 years. Only through our collective strength in progressive and working-class solidarity can we hope to destroy the power of the Republican Party’s authoritarian machine.
Whether urban or rural, industrial or agricultural, union, public, or private sector, reformist or revolutionary, we must all unite as one.
A divided Left will continue to lose. A united movement can transform Indiana.
We hope to foster a greater sense of statewide community and collaboration!
The Torch stands for freedom.
The Cog stands for the working class.
The Wheat stands for agricultural & undocumented laborers.
The Rose stands for our progressive solidarity.
The Star stands for the bright future we fight for.
In Freedom, Unity, & Solidarity!

Did you miss Chomp the Oligarchy last night? DSA’s National Electoral Commission is hosting one last rally where we’ll hear about how Laura Loomer and the Democratic establishment tried to CANCEL Oliver Larkin. Hasan Piker will be there.
I spoke with The Guardian about our campaign to prove Florida is ready for @DemSocialists candidates.
Even in 95-degree heat, our volunteers are knocking on thousands of doors each week, and we're out there every day until Tuesday.
People power beats big money. That's how we win.

Let's stop pretending that it takes a conviction to make a man a rapist, a sexual assaulter, a sexual abuser, a domestic abuser, etcetera. How about we fucking stop believing men and start believing WOMEN?
Indianapolis: please, please, share info from @IndyDPW about the flood potential tonight.
If we get as much flooding as predicted, we could see a huge amount of damage. If people aren't prepared for it, they could die.
Please be sure anyone you know in the evac area is aware.
YOUNG PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING BACK
Young people understand that, in the richest country on Earth, there is no rational reason why their generation should face a lower standard of living than their parents. And they’re fighting back.
Progressives are winning across the country because young people are increasingly involved in the political process. They’re knocking on doors, making phone calls and voting in record numbers for progressive candidates.
They understand that healthcare is a human right, that we should invest in affordable housing and not endless wars, that we should make public colleges and universities tuition-free and that AI must benefit all of humanity, not just Big Tech oligarchs.
The establishment wants people to believe politics is hopeless, that they have all the money and therefore they have all the power. But across the country, a new generation is proving them wrong.
Two things can be true:
1) this officer did a great job helping people in a dangerous situation, and should be thanked.
2) as a society, we should fund infrastructure and not try to use armed police to solve every problem!
The billionaire class has the money.
We have the people.
Peggy Flanagan and Abdul El-Sayed just proved that we can take on billionaire-funded super PACs and win.
The people are fighting back.
