The Washington Post editorial board blamed the Democratic Party for its embrace of progressivism after Kamala Harris' defeat.

Julian Zelizer says the post-pandemic increase in wages in no way can compensate for the lost opportunity cost of a generation of flat or real wage loss that was replaced by predatory consumer credit and student loans.

Zelizer: Having former President Obama lecture Black male voters about anything will backfire.

Barber : "Poverty is now the fourth leading crisis of death in America , a moral crisis in America taking the lives of 800 people a day" "Saving the democracy must be a Third Reconstruction where people are paid a living wage, where people have health care, where public education is fully funded and where voting rights are protected and expanded".
