Summary:
I lay out a hard-nosed, no-illusions roadmap for 2026: win the midterms—and then do the decades-long rebuild this moment demands.
Reality check: even a Democratic midterm sweep is just the starting line. The damage is deep; reconstruction will be slow, disciplined, and comprehensive across every level of government. From there, we need to spell out a governing agenda: end “life as a subscription,” prosecute regime actors and their enablers, restore post-WWII-style progressive taxation (including a 90% rate on wealth above $20M), and stop the billionaire-captured, AI-fueled extraction economy.
Chapters:
00:00 – Wake-up call for 2026
03:00 – Policy repair agenda
06:00 – Tax what captured the state
09:00 – A long-term mandate
10:00 – Remove the “cancer” of oligarchy; begin in 2026
