The brutal assault on Hillary Clinton’s integrity is the reason she is not our next president.

Their collective attacks damaged her […]

I'm proud to stand with them and fight alongside them. — Peter Daou (@peterdaou) November 15, 2016 The reality of what happened on Election Day is unavoidable: The far right now dominates the U.S. government.

Tuesday was a gut-wrenching blow for American democracy, but one that has quickly stiffened the spine of those who share Hillary Clinton’s progressive vision. On social media, messages of defiance and determination are being shared, and Hillary’s growing popular vote victory has given a sense of strength and purpose to Democrats and progressives. The incontrovertible fact […]

The past 48 hours have been a wake up call for many Americans. Republicans will now run the country and if the election is any guide, the national media (with a few exceptions) will refuse to hold them accountable. Democrats have signaled that they are willing to do what’s necessary to make sure Trump’s presidency […]

We’ve heard so much about frustration and anger this cycle that we forget the other emotion driving the 2016 election, the one we see in the faces of Hillary Clinton’s supporters: Joy. The most underestimated person in the 2016 election is the Clinton supporter. And their least recognized (and most powerful) emotion: Joy. Election Day is upon […]

Dear Hillary, thank you for so graciously welcoming me to your team a decade ago (I found a nice picture from those early days) and for giving me the privilege of working with the many brilliant, dedicated Democrats and progressives around you.

Love and kindness versus hate and fear: that’s what the 2016 election boils down to.

Democrats are sick and tired of the endless lies about Hillary Clinton, the character attacks, the distortions of her record, the contorted caricature portrayed in the media. They want an unfiltered connection to her without the prism of GOP-style talking points and false frames. If the headline of this piece blows some minds, you can thank three decades of […]

Obama spoke about the fearsome responsibility of taking control of the nuclear codes on the day he took office. He made a powerful case that Donald Trump lacks the character to handle that responsibility. The crowd was fired up and at times engaged in a call and response with the president. Watch:

After a brutal 18-month assault on her character, Hillary Clinton is on the cusp of smashing a 227-year barrier. That is the wonder of where we stand at this inflection point in U.S. history.

Periodically, I’ll browse through Hillary Clinton’s Flickr page to get a perspective the corporate media refuse to provide.

With every bizarre twist in the 2016 election, every new anti-Hillary tempest, every dire warning of her campaign’s imminent demise, I remember Hillary Clinton telling a small group of 2008 aides that she viewed herself as the “tip of the spear” for women and girls. That phrase has stayed with me, four words that sum up a philosophy of life, a willingness […]

In 2008, Donald Trump spoke to NY1 about Hillary and Bill Clinton, speaking highly of both. The clip surfaced on the day of the third debate and received relatively little attention.

The unpredictability of politics has been on full display in 2016. There is simply no way to know what each day will bring, and no way to know how an issue will play.

The net effect of the vastly overhyped Clinton email story is not as obvious as it seems. The ordinary impulse is to conclude it has been terribly detrimental to her campaign. The reality is much different. Notwithstanding mainstream pundits’ claims that Hillary Clinton should be winning by a gazillion points, she was never going to coast to the White House. Anti-Clinton […]
