    I have a long feature on Paris that just went up . The city is increasingly unaffordable for working class people and losing tens of thousands of residents per year, trends that could get even worse with the current crisis.

    France’s second city voted for the “Marseille Spring,” a left-wing coalition that put an end to two decades of conservative rule. But difficult pandemic conditions have raised questions over its ability to put ordinary citizens in charge of city hall.

    left coalition won power in Marseille, vowing, as their main promise, to work with grassroots groups in the city after decades of conservative rule and general municipal hollowing out here's an early check-in

    Check out CNews or BFM for a taste of this. A lot of garbage and chicanery dressed up as an honest exchange of ideas.

    Of course if people vote for the FN/RN, the press has a responsibility to cover them. Absolutely. But beyond that, large swaths of the media have decided it’s worth giving platforms to ppl to bash immigrants+Islam b/c they either agree or b/c it makes for “good TV” and debate.

    With another early poll showing Macron and Le Pen running neck and neck, I think it’s worth stressing that one of the big factors fueling the far-right in France today (and there are many!) is the normalization of their ideas by the country’s mainstream media.

    I wrote an explainer: What on earth happened today with GameStop? Why it's not Robinhood/Reddit vs. Hedge Funds. It's Hedge Funds vs. Hedge Funds vs. Wall Street, with Robinhood as a fig leaf

    In my latest newsletter, I outline what the situation on the left looks like *right now* ahead of the 2022 presidential election. Minimal punditry and very little speculation, I promise!

    What's happening on the French Left a year and a half out from the presidential election? Mélenchon? The Greens? Hidalgo? Montebourg? Have you covered in my newsletter. Just, you know, subscribe so you can read it.

    For the Democratic Party as an institution, the stakes of enacting major reforms over the next two years are nearly existential. And its leadership appears to understand this, even if its marginal senators do not (and/or care not for their party’s fate).

    Yeah I’d say supporting the lynching of journalists is not a good way to get them to vote for you. (Personally I’d vote for Clemens, Bonds and Manny.)

    On a press call, says Senate Democrats should use reconciliation to pass a $15 minimum wage: "If the Republicans could use reconciliation to pass trillions of dollars for tax breaks… we must use reconciliation to protect the needs of working families."

    Trying to avoid speculating about 2022 because the fact is nobody on the left is expecting much clarity for some time. There is no grand strategy at this point. There is no plan. We know Mélenchon is running. We know the Greens intend to hold a primary. That's about it.

    France (presidential election, 1st round), Harris poll: Le Pen (RN-ID): 26% Macron (LREM-RE): 24% Pécresse (LR-EPP): 14% Mélenchon (FI-LEFT): 11% Jadot (EELV-G/EFA): 8% ... Scenario: Hidalgo / Pécresse running Field work: 19-20 Jan. Sample size: 976

    Excellent little detail in this NYT story about the union drive at Amazon in Bessemer, Alabama. This is their description of Amazon's anti-union website.

    Amazon is requesting the NLRB hold an in-person union election at its warehouse in Bessemer, AL. Pushing back against a prior decision to allow voting-by-mail b/c of safety concerns. Amazon argues here it has *only* 218 positive cases over a 14 day period.
