Cc: Certain Dems who know who they are.
Democrats should own their legacy as the party that built the social safety net and fight for a robust federal government that can actually deliver for working people.
That means making the case for taxes!!!!
No more “No Tax On” slop! No more plans to exempt the majority of taxpayers from any taxes at all!
Fund the tax police and restore some credibility in the tax system. Me for @SearchlightInst open.substack.com/pub/search…

🚨 @AshleySchapitl: To advance good politics, Democrats don’t need to become a watered-down version of the anti-tax GOP.

The first-string option: broad-based, progressive tax reform.
At @SearchlightInst, I lay out a path forward, with four initial options: searchlightinstitute.org/res…

Narrow levies and tax carve outs aren’t meeting America’s revenue or safety net needs. The whack-a-mole approach to the tax code is no longer cutting it. We need to think differently about taxes.

Like many in tax world, I’ve been dismayed at how bipartisan the tax revolt has become. Exempting more people and income from taxes. How do we combat these bad ideas? Fund the tax police again to restore credibility. My guest piece for @SearchlightInst. open.substack.com/pub/search…

Ads accusing Republicans of corruption are dominating the airwaves. Polling suggests that's a powerful closing message for Democrats.
But @HMBWhite wants Democrats to remember that voters see MOST politicians as corrupt — not just Trump and Republicans.
It's extremely good for Dems to run against corruption. They also need to walk the walk if they take majorities, and actually address corruption in DC.
Yes, that includes satisfying the urge to hold the Administration accountable, but it also means looking inward as well.

"next-gen search and rescue" is a funny way of saying Robot That Chases You Through the Woods and Shoots You in the Back of Your Fucking Head
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Taxes aren’t the problem.
A government that fails to collect and spend taxes wisely is the problem.
It’s time we had A Contributory State of Mind.

Taxes are not punishment. Nor are they a cure all for every new policy problem our leaders encounter. They are a tool to finance a fair, prosperous, and generous society.
It's time to get back to basics. My very smart colleague @EKraschel lays out the path forward.

Public trust in our tax system has eroded — but to fund priorities like universal health care, we’ll need to restore that trust.
Let's start by fixing what's already wrong with the tax code. Here’s how.

Seriously great revenue framework here--nice work @EKraschel and @SearchlightInst.
A great set of priorities right here:
