    The IRA and CHIPS Act were far from the progressive bills that they’ve been portrayed as in the media and by party apparatchiks. They’ve mostly benefited the kind of people Deese used to work with and for.

    Additionally, to call Neera Tanden’s CAP progressive is absolute horseshit. She’s one of the foremost anti-left Democrat Twitter trolls and CAP is a on the right wing of the Democratic Party and awash in all kinds of corporate money and also funded by some of the governments with the worst human rights records in the world such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

    He DOES actually sound like a very bad guy for anyone who’s into economic justice rather than the usual crumbs for regular people and loaves for the rich people, corporations, and foreign governments that are exploiting them and directly or indirectly killing innocent people.
