Oath.Vote July 29, 2026 No offense to ActBlue, but this under-5-minute introductory video from my friend Brian Derrick may change the way you do your political giving. His Oath.Vote has thus far channeled $100 million to strategic races without taking a penny (unless you tip them) and without sharing your contact info. I think you’ll find his message compelling. NICK HANAUER Long-time readers know I’m a Nick Hanauer fan. I can’t count the times I’ve posted his originally-banned Ted Talk (under 6 minutes) — it’s not the rich who are the job creators, it’s the middle class — and, years later, his warning to fellow plutocrats: the pitchforks are coming (20 minutes). Yesterday, his Facebook post — People aren’t just mad because things cost too much — led me to his weekly Pitchfork Economics podcast. I plan to listen to the episode that just dropped — The Good Life Economy — on my next power walk. Nick and Mark Cuban — and, well, Warren Buffett and Mackenzie Scott — are my favorite billionaires.
