Friend -

Hope this email finds you with a sense of curiosity and maybe a side of healthy skepticism as we delve into the wild world of MAGA and all its mysteries. It's Edil Mari De Los Reyes, your friendly neighborhood progressive mom and amateur detective on the case of the century.

So, let's talk about the elephant in the room: the rise of MAGA. It's like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded while riding a unicycle on a tightrope. But hear me out—I think one of the key factors in the MAGA movement gaining traction is the growing gap between the haves and have nots.

Let’s face it–it’s growing wider than the Grand Canyon on a bad hair day. As people struggle to make ends meet, it's easy to fall prey to the siren song of promises for a brighter tomorrow, even if those promises come wrapped in a red cap. There’s just so much of “survival mode” an individual can handle. 

(And if you’re reading this and thinking that such individuals are weak or lazy, then do us a favor and unsubscribe from PowerPAC. We are a deeply rooted progressive, social justice organization whose mission is to break systemic injustices. If you believe in the rhetoric that our nation is full of weak or lazy workers, then you’re already on the side of the red hats.)

But here's where things get interesting. While the MAGA movement taps into legitimate frustrations about economic inequality, it most definitely misses the mark on addressing the root causes. It's like trying to put out a wildfire with a squirt gun; sure, you might get a few drops on the flames, but the inferno rages on.

As we navigate this tangled web of socioeconomic woes and political rhetoric, it's crucial to keep our wits about us. We can't let the allure of easy answers cloud our judgment or lead us astray. Instead, let's roll up our sleeves and tackle the real issues head-on, armed with facts, empathy, and a healthy dose of skepticism.

So, here's my challenge to you: Let's unravel the MAGA mystery together. Let's dig deep, ask tough questions, and challenge the status quo. Because when we shine a light on the shadows, that's where the truth emerges.

Stay curious,
