Millions demonstrated. Cities mobilized in defense of their people. Judges and juries upheld the law. Voters laid the basis for revoking the 2024 balance of power and issuing a new mandate for progressive change.
We have the power to make 2026 a year of reckoning, of decisive defeats for the MAGA movement. We believe that a revitalized Left, with its vision of a multiracial democratic and working-class movement, is key to ousting the MAGA crowd at every level of government in every region of the country.
This is a time for incisive analysis and bold initiatives, for strategizing and organizing for real change. For devising new tactics and thinking big about what can be achieved. We at xxxxxx will be working to provide you and other readers the best strategic thinking and analysis we can find from a multitude of sources. We will continue to reflect the struggles, in our country and globally, for peace, security and justice. Once a year we ask you to help us do that.
Support This Vision
This year showed what it looks like for people to make their own history.
New York voters generated a political thunderclap by electing a democratic socialist mayor. California answered Trump’s gerrymander. Chicago gave new meaning to whistleblowing and Portland launched the Frog Brigade. Each such creative act inspires new actions.
By these actions and many more, people punctured the facade of racist and reactionary omnipotence and created a new political reality. We believe that is a signal of what is to come. We look forward to many more reckonings in 2026.
Every day we search the Internet for examples of people making history, including frontline reporting, cogent argument, culture and humor. We look for and share insights from science. Every day, we share the best that we find with you.
