The utter failure of Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, and Donald Trump to pass a bill rolling back the Affordable Care Act makes one thing perfectly clear: love him or hate him, Barack Obama is one of the most consequential presidents in American history — and that he will be a particularly towering figure in the history of American progressivism.

Many black Biden supporters who spoke to CNN spent less time praising the former vice president's qualifications than explaining why they could not vote for the alternatives: Bloomberg's past support for stop-and-frisk, which disproportionately targeted black and Latino young men; Sanders' progressivism and their fears about the impact of his costly proposals on the economy.

His candidacy will be a test of his charisma and "spark," as Don Fowler put it — of the "decency" and "integrity" that a fair number of voters and observers have commented on — against the more substantial and detailed progressivism of his adversaries, the moderation of still others — and all the things we don't know about him yet.

Caldwell shrugs off this idea as a pleasant illusion; in his account the original critics of civil rights legislation were probably correct to warn against its revolutionary implications, which include the steady subsequent advance of cultural progressivism, an enormous expansion of deficit spending and the economic abandonment and cultural vilification of the white male working class.

The campaign, Queer Cinema for Palestine, is run by PACBI (the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, part of the broader BDS organization) in conjunction with Palestinian queer groups such as Pinkwatching Israel, which fights efforts by the Israeli government to provide cover for its treatment of Palestinians through token gestures of LGBTQ-friendly progressivism.

And there's no acknowledgment that a familiar tag like "moral relativism" may be a poor fit for a woke progressivism whose moral fervor is increasingly the opposite of relativist — but perhaps a better fit for a religious conservatism that has demonstrated an embarrassing, at times self-discrediting moral flexibility in its support of, well, Donald Trump.

But where Mr. Faulkner displayed a pastor's ability to rouse the small conservative gathering and offered himself as a bulwark against the "political elite" and the mayor's "progressivism," Mr. Massey stuck to the flat tones of a boardroom as he made a centrist critique of what he said were Mr. de Blasio's failings and the need for change.

The result, at the height of anti-Trump fervor and Wall Street-bashing progressivism in the Democratic Party's base, is a spotlight trained brightly on a southern-state centrist with a nine-figure net worth, a decade-old itch to be president and, until recently, according to friends and former aides, a healthy disdain for the institution he serves.

If you wanted to trace the roots of the country's shift from a kind of big-picture progressivism to more individualistic conservatism, well, you could do a lot worse than looking at the shift from neighborhood gathering place to individual home, from men play-acting at being members of a weird, mystical order in a local lodge to turning their houses into fortresses.

Iger is more interested in trying to turn "entertainment" into a surer thing than it typically is by buying up big, recognizable brand names (Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, etc.), which means Disney's various entertainment properties tend toward the barely center-left progressivism of most Hollywood entertainment — designed to challenge the status quo as little as possible and travel globally with minimal fuss.

This is a particular issue as highly educated white liberals become more progressive on racial issues than many African-Americans and Hispanics; in that context the language that dominates progressivism often emerges out of a dialogue among minority activists and academics and well-meaning white liberals, without much engagement with the larger minority population, its assumptions and habits and beliefs.

|
In both cases, she's telling anyone who listens that a vote for the Democrats isn't just a vote against Trump (which a clear majority would like to cast) or a vote for popular liberal policies (of which there are many) but a vote for the new progressivism in full — no matter how many Americans, of all ethnicities, are distinctly unready for its rigors.

Well, maybe he's not the perfect candidate to actually beat Trump, but Gravel could be just the guy to call everyone on their B.S., chart a course back to the progressivism of yore, before the boomers ruined everything, and generally make everyone on the debate stage laugh nervously because they can't decide whether this guy is totally crazy or totally correct.

Some followed Pope Francis's recent trip to Ireland that devolved into a sort of apology tour through the increasingly secular country, a visit that was topped off with the release of a 7,000-word letter by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò—a former top Vatican diplomat and conservative critic of his apparent progressivism—accusing Francis of knowing about McCarrick's record of abuse.

When I cite the original series' "vague progressivism," I don't really mean that it had a coherent political framework so much as it believed in the idea that the American dream was too often hoarded by those who least needed access to it, who then parceled it out in little chunks to those further down the ladders of economic, racial, and social privilege.

But as a result of some congressional infighting, Cordray's five-year term in office does not include his time running the agency before his confirmation in mid-2013 — which means that at least until a few months before the midterm elections, in 2018, the deregulator in chief will be confronted with this small bastion of progressivism inside his own government.

It is fair to say, Senator, that in your definition, as you being the self-proclaimed gatekeeper for progressivism, I don't know anyone else who fits that definition, but I know a lot of really hard fighting progressives in the Democratic party who have stood up time, and time again against special interests, against the powerful on behalf of those who are left behind and left out.

There is something poetic about the fact that our contemporary populist conservatives, avowed foes of progressives and progressivism, are in thrall to one of the most ancient and enduring of all progressive errors: the belief that the government (and society) can be run the way a business is run, as though a nation were only "one big factory," as the socialists used to put it.

Its original headquarters weren't in Washington, DC, but in West Los Angeles, where Andrew Breitbart intended to launch a culture war against what he viewed as "the Democrat media complex" and progressivism in general (though the Atlantic pointed out in 26 that much of Breitbart's early efforts, like targeting ACORN and the Shirley Sherrod debacle, were political acts through and through.) But Bannon wanted more.

Those dynamics are now on display as Wisconsin prepares for a major primary election on Tuesday: Mr. Walker's bid for a third term is at stake; Wisconsin Democrats' desire to deal blows to Trump Republicanism is intense; Republicans are deeply concerned about their future hold on state government; and the very identity of the state, which swings between progressivism and conservatism, feels up for grabs.

I think it partly comes from my parents voting for Trump, having that Republican background and being told my progressivism was silly and not something to be taken seriously, so I think I spent a lot of time before I was ever writing in any capacity, really, getting the receipts for why I believe what I believe, and that's a lot of what I do now.

Ocasio-Cortez likely benefitted from being a young woman of color running against a 56-year-old white man in a diverse district (40 percent Latino, 32 percent white, 15 percent Asian, and 14 percent black.) But there is progressivism there too: Young people, untainted by years working in politics and the unsavory relationships that develop as a result, may be the best hope of removing undue influence from our politics.

It is a hard thing to accept that some elections should be lost, especially in a country as divided over basic moral premises as our own.... [T]oday's conservatism has far more to gain from the defeat of Donald Trump, and the chance to oppose Clintonian progressivism unencumbered by his authoritarianism, bigotry, misogyny and incompetence, than it does from answering the progressive drift toward Caesarism with a populist Elagabalus.

I think that some of the young people who worked on her campaign, maybe some of the older ones but I really only knew the junior people, had liked and thought that I was smart about the history of Hillary Clinton and way she fit into the story of the United States, and it's progress and regress when it comes to gender and race and progressivism in general.

The panel included Mauricio Macri, a former businessman who recently defeated Argentina's entrenched populists to become president; Matteo Renzi, the Italian prime minister who styled his own career on the pro-market progressivism that Mr. Clinton called the "Third Way"; Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, a former Nigerian finance minister and World Bank official; and Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of London, who was a forceful advocate for Britain's remaining in the European Union.

Even as the policy failures of the political establishment have grown a constituency for ambitious and transformative material politics within the Democratic Party and built market skepticism within certain factions on the right, issues like LGBTQ rights and abortion will remain, like immigration, potent wedge issues, thanks in part to a new crop of traditionalists like Ahmari, intent on reviving old battles to revive an old world and crushing imagined monsters behind socialism and progressivism.

His election demonstrates that as the unifying glue of the mainline culture receded, the country divided into at least three blocks: white evangelical Protestantism that at least in its public face seems to care more about eros than caritas; secular progressivism that is spiritually formed by feminism, environmentalism and the quest for individual rights; and realist nationalism that gets its manners from reality TV and its spiritual succor from in-group/out-group solidarity.

But just as the pro-life movement ultimately won real gains — in lives saved, laws altered, abortion rates reduced — by accepting the legitimacy of the republic even as it deplored the killing of the unborn, so today's conservatism has far more to gain from the defeat of Donald Trump, and the chance to oppose Clintonian progressivism unencumbered by his authoritarianism, bigotry, misogyny and incompetence, than it does from answering the progressive drift toward Caesarism with a populist Elagabalus.

Most people in the Beltway would struggle to find Taylor County on a map of West Virginia — despite the fact that portions of the state are considered part of suburban D.C. — yet what has happened in this state is not only a microcosm of the populism that is sweeping the country, it also underscores the devastating impact President Obama's progressivism has had on down-ballot seats across the country held and lost by Democrats since 22019.

Nancy Bauer, a professor of philosophy and a dean of academic affairs for Arts and Sciences at Tufts, argues in favor of orienting strategy toward younger voters: My view is that the only way that Democrats can win is if they embrace progressivism, not just because it's on the side of justice, equality, fairness, compassion, and decency, but also because it's the only political strategy that will bring younger voters to the polls in significant numbers.

The persistent difference between Poland and the UK, where a slim majority of voters opted for Brexit, is that regular Poles don't want to leave the EU. With 72 percent of voters backing Brussels, Poland has the highest EU-approval rating of any member nation—a fact that makes it hard to see "Polexit" rhetoric as anything more than a safe way to cudgel immigration and progressivism without risking subsidies and spending that currently brings 8.9 billion Euros into the Polish economy.

The salient feature of our founding purpose is meanwhile, it wouldn't be too cute to say, the antithesis of reactionary opinion (despite a 229-year-old cliché that the antithesis of reactionary opinion would have to be revolutionary opinion): Our original Progressivism was buoyed at the outset by an optimism about the prospect of science bringing harmony to American politics and policy, the naïveté of which didn't take long to reveal itself; but at The New Republic's heart was less a hard-scientific sensibility in human affairs and more a deep belief in the creative potential of republican self-government.
