Progressives Without a Party w/ (Amy Vilela)

This week, Briahna spoke to congressional candidate from Nevada's 1st district, Amy Vilela, about how she plans to address mounting frustrations from progressive voters about electoral politics. With so many progressive with legitimately powerful lived experiences in office, and do little progress, is that enough? Is Vilela willing to be genuinely adversarial to the Democratic party? If another #ForceTheVote scenario arose, would she withhold her vote for a must pass bill, or come out openly against Nancy Pelosi and House leadership? Briahna asked all this and more.

Ballotpedia says Dina Titus has $1,120,610 cash on hand. Amy Vilela has $46,510

Please consider interviewing Victoria Virasingh who is primarying Don Beyer as the U.S. House Virginia District 8 (Democrat). It would be so useful to hear her answering your pointed questions.

*sigh* It can be frustrating to hear sincere left-leaning candidates who still try to run as Democrats. I wish Vilela well but I cannot support anyone who is running as a Democrat or as a Republican. Should she decide to run as a Green or as a left-of-Democrat independent/third party, then I may give her candidacy consideration.

Waiting for my turn in the callin but none of them are choosen... Which was interesting because I've called out socialist black out multiple times on Twitter and they refuse to provide a articulate response to my argument...🤦‍♂️

I donated to her too. No regrets. She can make me regret it or not. Time will tell.

On the Force the Vote section — and the out that Brie gives the “Progressive Dems” by allowing for the fact that the “messenger” (to wit, one James Dore) is somehow, in some unspecified way, compromised — I resent that she had to list those “respectable” (her word) proponents of FTV (herself, Cornell West, Krystal Ball, and that sometime used car salesman, now great intellectual Kyle Kulinski) as if that should have made one iota of difference. The fact that hard-left Dore is beyond the pale for this party and their media acolytes because he refuses to play their praise/access circle-jerk, should tell you everything you need to know about them. Let’s not make excuses, or entertain the idea that “one more progressive and maybe the plan will start working.” Most of all though, let’s not compromise our values or sell out good comrades for the sake of a “respectability” in the anyway vain hope that it will get us a chance of reconfiguring the system in any meaningful way.

Brie has really taken a weird turn since going on Rising.

I was all in for Amy until she so stubbornly evaded Brie's questions about standing up against the establishment. If Amy's not even willing to promise on the campaign trail that she'll stand up for her values if elected, what are the chances she'll do so once her seat is secured? She's lost my support. More Nina Turners, fewer spineless so-called progressives who cave to pressure and let the people down.

Sorry. This is just sad.

Unrelated but it would be really fun to listen to a long conversation between Kim Iverson and you on Bad Faith.

Here's the bottom line - to go into congress and fight the establishment you have to be prepared to be hated....on a regular basis....in your place of employment. Few are psychologically prepared for this. As much as those on the outside may think we could do it, perhaps it is more difficult than we may imagine. However, deep attachment to and engagement with the progressive base is one way to guard against the deleterious effects of this hatred.
