Want to win a signed copy of The Myth of Red Texas? One @DemSocialists phonebanker at tomorrow's fall membership drive will get a signed copy of the book - all while growing the largest socialist movement in a century!

"The Blueprint is the clearest, most forceful, and most detailed case for market socialism that anyone has made for a generation, or more. It should be read, and debated, by all of us who want to build something better than capitalism, as well as the skeptics."
– Cosma Shalizi on our book, which is officially out in an hour.
Read about the model and order the book: blueprintforsocialism.com

Texas birthed populism and one of the largest socialist movements in the country. Excited to be reclaiming our radical history in San Antonio with Tom Alter next month!

Happy to be in the @guardian talking about Texas's forgotten radical roots, and the fight to reclaim Texas for working people.
Nationally we talk a lot about municipal politics forms NYC, DC, Chicago, LA etc. why is Houston left out? We talk about it today with @samrussek!
Grateful that @LeftReckoning had me on to discuss the mayor of Houston, his balancing act with state Republicans and pressure from below, and why the "strong mayor" role in the US's fourth largest city is waning

Why is James Talarico buddying up with billionaires? Plus @samrussek on Houston's strangest mayor

Beto O'Rourke says on it's 'hard to square' supporting a candidate who won't acknowledge the genocide in Gaza and says AIPAC has become 'a toxic force in our democracy' that shouldn't shape US policy.
(From @LeftReckoning podcast)

Beto O'Rourke tells @LeftReckoning podcast he never hired a pollster in the 2018 Texas Senate campaign:
"When I ran for Senate in '18, we didn't hire a pollster, we never paid for a poll, we didn't look at them. I I never wanted to be constrained by what somebody else would tell me was possible"
And yes we did get a couple of F-bombs
Beto joins @leftreckoning today to talk about winning Texas, Zohran, the DSA, and on if the Texas Dem Party is big enough for the pro-Israel lobby.

Greg Abbott wants to have it both ways on data centers. It’s fitting for a governor who sometimes claim to have his hands tied and other times wants to be seen as all powerful. But people are seeing through it

We talked about the pathetic David Pakman whose desire for access has him exposing himself as a total stooge for the right. While Trump ramps up attacks on free speech and democracy David Pakman is happy to answer the call!

Is the problem that we lose it for someone, or is it that our conditions are so precarious that losing it for someone might imply also losing all material safety?
