https://progressives.house.gov/2026/4/progressive-caucus-announces-new-affordability-agenda
Politico indicates that besides the Progressive Caucus, the middle of the road Dems also have or are working on an agenda of their own.
It is encouraging to see such varied agenda proposals. It is something you're never get from any Republican group, or from the Trump administration. Can you imagine JD getting into specifics rather than platitudes without substance? This movement should pressure attention from the public and from the Republicans. Don't let them stonewall.
Expect growth of interest in detail ideas vs spin and obfuscation.
UPDATE: Housing, food, healthcare, mobility, and well being, those are goals, not pushing against Iran so US fossil fuel barons can run worldwide energy supply and access. People matter more than increasing the wealth of the Trump family. Homelessness can be addressed, while Hegseth says, "Give me a trillion."
What we have now is sick exploitation of a people, us in the US, via deliberate making their lives unsettled, so that billionaires and their companion millionaires can have endless power and luxury until they croak.
The young deserve the handing to them of a better world than the one Donald Trump is ruining. Anybody on the Trump agenda, wealthy or wanting to climb from local mayor here or there with ambition to reach something else paying better, is an enemy of everyone else. We need something better than bullshit excuses or disdain. When we seek reasonable relief after suffering ICE - Bovino, we deserve reform. Spin at any level is unhelpful, and sourced from some motives, good or more likely selfish and bad.
True reform gets buried when Hispanic people or Somalis get demonized and scapegoated by people with more in a year's income than fifteen or their firm's workers - at Walmart, wherever - where the Walton family in Arkansas have employees working full time yet in need of welfare assistance to keep their families together, and to stay housed, fed, and in good health. Trump is enemy to the people of the world. Not merely enemy of the people of the US of A. His evil reach is worldwide. His oil cronies have closed the Persian Gulf over bullshit and Israeli Greater Israel land lust, but mainly to cripple Arab oil producers so that Trump - JD oil cronies of Trumpworld can bandit the world. We can be better and have no excuse to not be.
Link, and here. Figure it out as you may. It's online, along with one hell of a lot of disdainful propaganda against others, where propaganda is, as Chomsky wrote, "manufacturing consent." See it where it exists. It is there to be seen. And disdained. But we do have our own propagandists, helpful to our causes, so be mindful of that. Good propaganda, bad propaganda? Figure that out.
Fuck Trump. That burdening the Strait of Hormuz would last years if Trump and company could get away with it by endless sabre rattling at one another by both the US and Iran. Fuck Trump's oil-evil corruption. End this insane war. Oust the Republicans from the White House. From Congress. Forever ideally, but for now is better than nothing. The children of the US and of the world deserve our doing so, so that they may face a decent future.

Link. Different than here. Video, and in approach. But popular. Hat tip to the gentle lady who told me I should know Aaron Parnas exists online. When we talk to friends we learn things.
