@POTUS opens with a substantial commitment to bipartisanship. What agenda will he propose to break two years of gridlock?

10 million new small business applications as part of the effort to revitalize the national (and world) economy as part of the recovery from the COVID pandemic.

No note on the coordinated effort to generate inflation and a recession.

Infrastructure investment is the key element in building an extensive coalition that will bring leadership together across partisan divides.

"Buy American" is the response to "America First."

This approach offers key ways to invest in small towns and rural communities - as well as hundreds of mid-size cities.
[side note] I have never seen a metro region with so much amazing infrastructure, just starving for people and new investment.

If you're looking for a strong, growing market, take a serious look at Minneapolis-Saint Paul.

And, the weather gets warmer every year.

Quadruple the tax on stock buybacks to drive infrastructure investment in the energy sector.

With debt reduction of $1.7 trillion, and enormous debt expansion under the 45th administration, @potus gains a moment of unanimity about protecting Social Security and Medicare.

"Let's give teachers a raise!" @potus

The commitment to fully funding education is the best long term policy prescription of the last fifty years.

Leverages the balloon incident to express a more aggressive posture in supporting Ukraine and limiting China's encroachment on the democratic international order.

Big pitch for cancer funding with inspirational story about a little girl overcoming the odds.

Huge acknowledgement for Paul Pelosi leads the condemnation of political violence in the US.

Jailing the leaders of the January 6th insurrection must be THE priority of the next two years.

Join me in a campaign to defend the right to learn.

It is focused on the protection of educators and scholars as well as providing resources to destroy disinformation campaigns.

It took me a few days to realize it, but what we are seeing on Twitter is an example of 'counter-convergence'. It is happening across media platforms (& the US economy), and I've seen miniature versions of it for a few years. /1 #thread #CCV @esglaude @AOC @nhannahjones
Convergence is the way media scholars described the emergence, and coordination, of multiple media twenty years ago. Harry Potter was a major example of this pattern where books, films, & architecture 'converged' for global profit. /2 #CCV
This specific pattern became a dominant feature of the world economy after 2009. The rise of Netflix, Facebook, Google, SpaceX, Uber/Lyft, and Twitter all leveraged convergence alongside thousands of conglomerates struggling to keep up. /3 #CCV
