4/5 I think this is probably why so many reacted so postively to Tim Walz, who had a career outside of the establishment and is touted as "fresh". A return to integrity and purpose feels essential. Can we demand more from those we elect? #PoliticalVision

7/8 Abundance would focus on specific goals: more housing where demanded, plentiful clean energy, revitalised science policy, and a national invention agenda. But this requires liberals to reform their own governance failures in places they control.

4/8 Democrats' response often offers another variety of scarcity. Blue cities block housing with excessive rules and litigation. As progressives' share rises 10 points in California cities, housing permits decline 30%—driving soaring costs and homelessness.

1/8 👉 AMERICA'S DEFINING MOMENT👈

Trump offers "shrunken vision" of scarcity while liberals struggle to articulate alternatives.

Author Derek Thompson argues America stands at rare crossroads where one political order gives way to another—with chance to define next era.

Unlike Ignatieff, Carney already has a clear vision—strengthening Canada's economy—and government experience at the highest levels.

His leadership victory margin exceeded even Trudeau's 2013 win, with endorsements from 90 Liberal MPs.
