Time for Democrats to Get With the Program

In the wake of the Democratic Party's brutal losses in the 2024 elections, a new movement of defiant economic populist candidates is seizing the Democratic political world by storm. Most prominent among them, of course, is Zohran Mamdani, who crushed corrupt, abusive, conservative Dem Andrew Cuomo in a dominating primary victory on a democratic socialist platform laser-focused on bread-and-butter economics. He's joined by Nathan Sage, a mechanic from Iowa challenging Joni Ernst, and Dan Osborn, an independent union leader challenging billionaire Republican Pete Ricketts, both of whom are running explicitly anti-billionaire populist platforms. Congressional candidates Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, Robert Peters in Illinois, and Rebecca Cooke in Wisconsin are all joining Bernie Sanders on his Fight The Oligarchy tour that is turning out packed crowds in red and blue states alike.
