The Institutional FAILURES of DSA and Progressives (w/ Kshama Savant)

In the first part of an epic two hour two parter with Seattle City counsel member Kshama Sawant, Briahna and Kshama dive into Kshama's recent successes in Seattle before interrogating the institutional failures of the DSA & elected progressives. Why will workers alternative be different? They then move on to continuing the debate over how much the left should invest in the Democratic Primary. Does the energy fomenting around RFK Jr. present an opportunity for left coalition building? Or is there a risk that encouraging strategic primary votes creates an illusion that a given candidate is a trusted fighter for left/working class interests? This Monday episode will be made available to all, and part two will air as a premium episode on Thursday -- flipping the usual schedule. You won't want to miss part two, in which Briahna and Kshama parse AOC's recent interview with David Sirota, and address the excuses given for her strike crushing rail road vote, among other actions in office.

My two queens! Great discussion! I think Kshama is doing the right thing by not publicly endorsing a candidate. Brie is also right to point out that Bernie wasn’t perfect yet they endorsed him. I do however think the onus is on the candidate, Marianne, to coalition build with leaders like Kshama. Marianne actually does have a very good platform, so I hope she reaches out to Kshama and takes advice from her.

dude did I just hear RFKJR name check Henry Kissinger as an American Hero?

I wouldn’t be surprised. He’s the ultimate insider. Idk why people are bothering with him

Ok correction, he didn't say "American Hero", he said "the most respected diplomatic gurus" .... "like Henry Kissinger". He can go fuck himself just for that

I don't understand why Williamson or Kennedy should move the real left even a modicum. The cracks of RFK are already apparent, and Williamson is a war pig who supports nearly every hostility that passes her nose. The class differences are showing, even in Bri.

RFK Jr is polling at 14 percent because he’s a freaking. Kennedy idk how this isn’t obvious. He was born into a democratic establishment dynasty family.

These conversations are incredibly tedious. Kshama will not move from her position on not voting, even for a candidate like MW who BJG has time for. At the end of the day MW will not win the Democrat Primary. No matter how much attention she gets on Tik Tok. Plus she's not an exciting left candidate. So will BJG maintain her position of anyone but Biden/Democrat?

Does anyone doubt MW will end up endorsing Biden when she drops out?

Polls are BS anyway. How many more examples of that do we need?

Malcolm X spoke on these "foxy white liberals" who now come in varying shades of brown. What they offer is illusionary. Power to the People. Power to Sawant!.
