Good for Van Jones on the prison reform bill, but it is just too damn bad that he and others would

not give Obama the same space on the ACA. The talking points now about the prison reform bill is that it is a "first step" "not going to let the perfect be the enemy of the good" "we have to move slowly and get more done." YES! YES!

Those sentiments are "establishment postures" that were scorned so vehemently by progressives in past elections.

Now let's turn that new pragmatism into a movement against the GOP and their voter suppression and election fraud. We have 18 months to get it right.
