Hey and fuckers, you might have seen some of what I'm about to say on YouTube this week because I dropped a portion of the script there as kind of a work in progress.

Now, if you watched it, you'll have to endure a repeated section, although I haven't found that there isn't a ton of crossover between the audiences, so hopefully it's a fresh perspective.

That said, this is still pretty unstructured and a little bit of a ramble, a bit of a one-way therapy session, I suppose, as I'm kind of working through this moment because we're in the middle of a huge transition right now.

So I'm going to be talking about this turning point, addressing the fallacy of building third-party movements, and outlining our strategy moving forward.

You ready?

UNFTR.

We've picked up momentum early in the year with some pretty profound topics and discussions.

And right now, I'm trying to find the balance between addressing the immediate under Trump's onslaught and

working toward big picture movement stuff.

Regarding the immediate, though, I'm trying to be really selective and only address the

items that have a reasonable chance of success and maximum impact.

It's hard not to get caught up in the sensational, but I'm doing my best.

I mean, did I go to Google Maps myself to see if they really renamed the Gulf of Mexico?

Sure. And they did. I can confirm for our foreign listeners that this is really our view now.

So dumb. Now, on the big stuff, there is a lot going on. So far this year, we've covered three-fifths

of our non-negotiables of the left, housing first, the right to shelter, the civilian labor

corps, the right to meaningful work, and Medicare for all. This leaves getting money out of politics

and a new approach to climate legislation. Now, I'm working on them as we speak, but they're actually

a lot more complicated than the first three, so hang in there. In the meantime, I'm working on

making our content actionable. Ever since we started this thing, unfuckers have asked me what they

can do to get involved. Some of you have run for local office. Others became Democratic Party delegates. Shout out Gen S. All have

participated in an elevated discourse. Now it's time to spread the word. So first tangent here.
