🚨MASTER PLAN SEASON 2 IS HERE🚨 Unearthing never-before-seen documents, we expose the secret plot to turn the presidency into a king. Trump is the culmination of a 50-year plan. You may think you know the story, but you don't. It's been secret - until now. Watch & PLEASE repost to pass it on👇

🚨NEWS: A new poll shows a majority of voters in major swing states and districts want Democrats to replace @schumer.senate.gov as Senate leader, and a plurality want Democrats to replace @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social as House leader.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: AIPAC is funneling cash into elections through a secret network of groups that are branded to popular liberal causes - and that have nothing to do with Israel. For the first time, @levernews.com exposes the entire secret scheme👇

I obviously hope MAGA loses the midterms, but if they don’t — or even if it’s close — we should ask whether this messaging was one of the subtle factors.

🚨INVESTIGATION: @levernews.com for the first time exposes the secret network of shadowy groups allowing AIPAC cash to flood into elections with no disclosure of its involvement. Cash boosted candidates through groups branded to popular causes that had nothing to do with Israel.

Serious question: Literally what is the point of blue states being blue if their Democratic tycoons-turn-governors shield billionaires from tax hikes as millions are thrown off healthcare? Isn't the point of voting blue supposed to be electing Dem leaders who don't just do what Republicans do?

NEW: @rahmemanuel.bsky.social's new plan is a way for his fellow millionaires to win, and for Dems to keep losing forever. To justify their donors' agenda, Corporate Dems punch left and pretend key swing voters are a handful of rich country-club Republicans rather than the enraged working class.

🚨NEWS: After raking in a $3 million payday as a corporate lawyer, Obama's former Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is spearheading the campaign to block a ballot measure that would raise taxes on his fellow millionaires, cut taxes for 95% of voters & prevent huge health care cuts.

“Democrats’ highest virtue is not their ability to enact big ideas, but instead their willingness to replace the GOP as the new party of no.” In Medicare for None, David Sirota examines why party leaders are pushing back against popular demands for universal healthcare.

How many deaths is an AI model worth? Anthropic’s draft bill would let the federal government block a model’s release only if it risks 50+ deaths or $1B in damage.

I've spent 30 years in media/politics pushing for an anti-corruption election & pressing Dems to articulate the link between corruption & the economic crisis. I've been eyerolled and vilified, but it's finally happened: the 2026 election is a referendum on the master plan that legalized corruption.

Our editor-in-chief @davidsirota.com spoke on @cnn.com last week about the significance of @abdulelsayed.bsky.social campaigning with @barackobama.bsky.social 👇

Why did 12 Democratic AGs agree to a settlement allowing the Paramount–Warner Bros. merger to proceed? Minnesota AG @keithellison.bsky.social was one of them. @davidsirota.com presses him on why Democrats helped clear the way for a media takeover benefiting Trump's allies.

@cnn.com's Becky Anderson asked me about @abdulelsayed.bsky.social's past criticism of Obama. My take: it's in his favor. Independent and anti-establishment voters want candidates who aren’t just a generic Republican or a generic Democrat. AES speaking candidly about Obama passes that test.

If you’re looking for proof that American politics and media are the most powerful propaganda system in human history, consider that barely anyone can easily afford the basic necessities needed to survive and yet the discourse is mostly about everything other than that

The fear that someone like @aoc.bsky.social couldn’t win nationally is “by now so misplaced," says @walshfreedom.bsky.social.

“Donald Trump is the last dying gasp of older white America.” That’s former Tea Party congressman @walshfreedom.bsky.social, who says the real fight starts after Trump: whether Democrats will embrace the political reform that follows.

Did Gaza cost Kamala Harris the White House? @DavidSirota.com asked @governorwalz.mn.gov His answer: "We did the most terrible thing you can do in politics... We kind of tried to walk the middle."

.@governorwalz.mn.gov says Democrats’ 2024 strategy of campaigning with @lizcheney.bsky.social risked losing sight of their own base. Asked whether @kamalaharris.com’s appearances with Cheney misread who the real swing voter was, Walz said yes.

NEW: If @abdulelsayed.bsky.social wins, experts say it could expose the limits of @aipac.org's power. Michigan’s Senate race is becoming a test of whether the pro-Israel establishment still has veto power inside Democratic politics.

SIROTA: “Did Gaza cost Kamala the White House?” GOV. WALZ: "We did the most terrible thing you can do in politics — We tried to walk the middle… the idea that criticizing 🇮🇱 is antisemitic is untrue… Palestinian protestors had a point…” (H/T @levernews.com )

This was basically the entire point of conservatives' Master Plan that legalized corruption and bribery. masterplanpodcast.com - pass it on

The Democratic establishment spent years insisting the left was the problem. Now Rahm Emanuel says DSA should effectively be outside the party — while Michael Bennet, a longtime centrist Democrat, calls that “a huge mistake.” That tells you something about where this fight is headed.

Your water bill could be 67% higher simply because a corporation owns your water system. A new analysis found households served by for-profit providers paid about $823 a year for drinking water in 2025. Public-system households paid just $494.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: In new interviews with me, two Obama Democrats - one a governor, one a senator - say their party cannot go back to the Obama Era of pretend powerlessness & must deliver more if the party regains power. A look at whether the Dem Party is turning the page from Obama 👇

🚨NEW: In a room full of corporate lobbyists that bankroll the Congressional Black Caucus, Florida Senate candidate @angieforfl.bsky.social teed off on big corporations fleecing workers while getting rich off the government. Important report on new Black leaders challenging the CBC's corporate ties.

Jay Clayton personally signed off on an Epstein files release that exposed potential victims’ names, emails and nude photos. Asked who was responsible, he said: “For the Southern District documents, it was me.” Trump’s response? Put him in charge of U.S. intelligence AND AI policy.

The biggest deception of the digital age is a media ecosystem that seems on its face like it offers a diversity of perspectives and open access to the public square, all while oligarchs’ algorithms imperceptibly control the entire discourse in service of their desired political outcomes.

Whether you loved or hated our film, I think it’s safe to say it holds up, considering this monologue all by itself could be Democrats’ entire closing message in the 2026 midterms, and much of the country would nod along in agreement.

A Democratic Party that refused to use its power to deliver for the working class ended up being a delivery system for Trump. If Democrats win power and once again do the same thing, they will be a delivery system for an even worse version of Trump - pass it on.

If you asked me to summarize the most significant existential political truth that I fear too few liberals truly understand, it would be this.

After @levernews.com published my essay about @thebulwark.com today - and it trended across social media - The Bulwark’s Sarah Longwell pretended there’s no data suggesting neocons’ election strategy of embracing Liz Cheney had anything to do with Dems’ 2024 loss. That’s false. See the data here👇

the kind of populist Democrat I’m proud to support

You put your money in a savings account & get paid on average 0.37% interest, according to FDIC data. The bank can then put your cash at the Fed & get paid 4% interest. Bank lobbyists have blocked the bill to let you cut out the middle man & put your cash at the Fed. This is called "capitalism."

Banks make billions by paying depositors as little as possible. Now Wall Street fears AI could disrupt that model by helping people find better savings rates — potentially creating “a problem for the entire financial system,” according to Apollo’s chief economist.

David Sirota: "If every household used AI agents to optimize the return on their cash balances, banks could lose a large share of the cheap deposits they rely on to make loans, which would be a problem for the entire financial system.” www.levernews.com/the-financia...

it seems we're facing the prospect of oligarchs’ robots mass murdering every human being on Earth, not because we don't know how to stop the robots, but simply because our government is too corrupt to even try to stop them
