They’ll defend the constitution by abolishing the bill of rights.

They say this includes coalition-building, sharing a more optimistic message with voters and less preaching. Democrats should also reclaim issues of patriotism, stay out of the political correctness business and improve their dialogue on racial divisions, they said.

So, in other words, LIE!

The Constitution is not a living document. It is inanimate ink on paper. It can only be altered deliberately, in the manner defined within the document. This is what is meant by a government of laws not men (or folk, or he-she-its).

-- The Constitution is not a living document. --

It's not supposed to be, but some judges treat it as though it is. My point was more along rhetorical lines. They say it is "living" as if that is a good thing. But what they are actually doing when they treat it as living, is they are crapping all over the written agreement, violating it, killing it.

They know that, and are trying to justify their over-reach with clever-sounding rhetoric.

Midterms? A new strategy? Would that include bomb threats at vote counting rooms rather than just a burst water pipe (as in Atlanta 2020)?

Progressive capitalism

Progressive capitalism is an approach to capitalism that seeks to improve the current neoliberal American capitalism that emerged in 1980.[1] Progressive capitalism aims to improve economic results through four defining beliefs, namely the vital role businesses play in the economy by creating jobs, fostering innovation, enabling voluntary exchange, and providing competitive goods and services; the recognition of the important role public goods, public institutions, public services and public infrastructure play in supporting businesses including: research, schools, health care, social insurance, taxation, labor law and regulation of markets; the need for the state to be involved in design and oversight of the playing field; and the integration of social justice, stewardship of natural resources and responsibility to all major stakeholders. It is being advocated by Ro Khanna and Joseph Stiglitz.

... until the next election is over.

If this guy’s lips are moving, he’s lying.

It’s cute how the “progressives” don’t realize it is them who are destroying the Democrat party…

Too bad for them that every gas and grocery store trip says otherwise.
