Thacher Report

Why do wealthy whites vote for Progressives? To maintain power.

How has the Left's focus on Identity Politics turned them into a hate movement?

Why can't Mainstream Dems resist Progressives?

The Left Made You Politically Homeless. Good.

The NY Times completes the transformation from a news paper into a Hamas propaganda outlet, that's somehow pro trans. Very impressive!

Mike Goldfarb is running for the NY-9 congressional Democratic seat. Can he beat the establishment progressive (yes, she's both!) incumbent and save the party?

Being politically homeless give you superpowers

Being Politically Homeless

Jews used to be reliably liberal. That's changing.

Introducing Adam Louis-Klein to the Thacher Report

Now that we hosted an event and started a WhatsApp, let's reframe the discussion. 

Two relatively quick observations about the unelected militias in Minneapolis and the sad fact that Hamas won the Democratic party but happily lost in Gaza 

What's it like outside the liberal Democratic party/mainstream media/academia fortress?

A New Unifier / Democratic Hyper-partisanship

Step away from the partisan, sports-fan coverage "my team is better than your team" to see the positivity of the off year/odd year election results in a few states earlier this week

Democrats are now in a shrinking blue bubble. Most Democrats I encounter have never had sustained social contact with working class or Republican voters. They tend to denigrate Republican voters as being in a cult, stupid, gullible, racist or all of the above. This does two things.

Zachary explores the connections between the massive setbacks of the Iranian regime (and the impotent Gulf) and the formal end of the Democratic Party centrist movement as the party becomes wholly progressive. We don't have to say Centrist vs Progressive anymore. That's settled. Like we don't have to say MAGA Republicans anymore, the Never Trumper faction is gone. Same for Democrats. Sure, it may...

While liberals wallow in their lack of popularity in America, which cements a Republican federal trifecta and I think a new era of Republican rule, they also project their impotent value system onto Israel. Netanyahu is the unfortun...

Once again, Progressives use illiberal, anti-democracy tactics to undermine our country.
