Ushering in the new

Posted by Maestro on 5/19/2026, 6:15 pm

“The old world is dying,
and the new world struggles
to be born; now is the time
of monsters.”

Antonio Gramsci

When that old world finally dies and we crush the monsters, who will usher in the new world?

We are not at a loss for new left leaders.

Zorhan, AOC, Graham Platner, and Katie Wilson to name a few. But wait, there's a new bright articulate young lady right here in my home state of Wisconsin ready and raring to go.

Meet Asian American State Legislator Francesca Hong, a member of Wisconsin's Democratic Socialist Party, who is running for governor.

Yours truly spent the morning today phoning around to find out how i can get aboard her campaign. Check out the interview link below.

I LIKE HER!
I LIKE HER!

My stereotyping: I have something for progressive & radical Asian-American females. They just go against the so-called conservative/reactionary Asian-American community stereotype we read about. Props to her!

WAIT...did he say she's leading in the Democratic primary race for governor? Did I hear that correctly? Gosh!!
KEEP HOPE ALIVE!

So cool to read an Antonio Gramsci quote on LLC. Yaaaay

wait, Chris Rabb won in philadelphia...

With all the disappointment over Thomas Massie's loss in Kentucky, I forgot about another important race in Philadelphia..
It was Chris Rabb, a Black candidate, against another AIPAC-supported Black woman, Ala Standford..
He won handily!

Apparently he had the endorsement of the 'Squad' and had a great ground game boosted by the Philadelphia Democratic Socialists of America. AWesome!
He will now join the ranks of the progressives in the Democratic party in Congress..
AIPAC threw all kinds of money to defeat him because of his criticisms of Israel & Netanyahu. IT DIDN'T WORK!

CONGRATS TO CHRIS RABB!

Hey man, CNN just did a major hit piece on Francesca Hong..
Apparently some folks are terrified of Francesca and so they went to work digging up everything she's said and everything's she's texted since she was delivered from her mother's womb.

Horrible journalism, at least what's left of so-called objective journalism. Sheesh!

Did not hear about the hit piece on Hong. wow!!N/T thanks

A VICTORY IN PA! YeSSSSS!!!!! Now the harder part- building the clout and wisdom to help him do a good job in difficult times. But it's a step forward in Third Reconstruction governing power.

It's not the Republican Party, ITS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY ESTABLISHMENT..LOL
(nb: the repubs did a bit, but now it's the dems establishment taking her on)

Her "abolish ICE", "defund the police", her "anti-capitalist" statements, and her support for the Palestinian cause, are being used to checkmate her democratic party supporters.

Again...we need a third way!!
