I hope you’re enjoying these last blissful days of summer despite enduring the greatest political crisis in recent American history I don’t ever again want to hear anyone say that politics or political leadership don’t matter.

Those hoping for political guidance in “Abundance” will be disappointed! Following 200 pages of history, Klein and Thompson finally admit they have no answers, merely questions like the rest of us. ⁦‪@ezraklein‬⁩

Real opportunity here for Democrats to build a better world with equality, real education and better health. But Americans need to vote for this instead of electing the Republicans who cause these terrible problems. @dncstaffunion.bsky.social
