While endlessly criticizing “Blue State” governance, I’m wondering if any of the Abundance people have visited Richmond, Virginia. If you were an alien, you’d think this was a city devoted entirely to parking lots.

This is the same kind of thought process that led the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, run by a Trump Family friend, to secretly murder a journalist inside of their embassy in a foreign country.

[email protected] should be showered with praise for this. The "smart" insider DC advice at the time was to abandon Abrego Garcia. But Van Hollen fought for his constituent and helped get him home. And it turns out fighting back rather than misreading polls was politically smart too.

I was wrong about this in 2016, btw. I thought he was a bad person and a bad candidate and clearly Americans were better than this: We're not. In 2020, despite being a HISTORIC DISASTER he nearly clung to victory. In 2024, despite being even worse, he inched out the biggest win of his career.

AOC has the leadership X factor that people like Bill Clinton and Obama had early in their careers. The country desperately needs her to run.

I'm not sure I've ever seen so many layers in a single tweet.

It's very funny how much of the Game 1 analysis is pointing out that dead ball turnovers (particularly if the ball just goes out of bounds off the pass) aren't really that big of a deal for the Indiana Pacers. This is what Fever fans spent all last year saying about Caitlin Clark!

Funny how a Lakers-era LeBron fan wouldn't understand how team basketball is played.

Time to update this compilation of the most important recession indicators. Perhaps the best headline is: "Mixed signals."

Shai is going to shoot 638 free throws in Game 2, isn’t he?

Fact-check: I was technically correct but directionally wrong.

The Pacers record so far when going down by 15 or more points would be a 51-win pace over the course of the regular season. They only went 50-32 this season maybe they should have tried to go down by larger amounts?

Dem electeds all rushing to draft their "the thing about Tyrese Haliburton hitting that last second shot is that in a few days Republicans will vote on whether to take healthcare from 16 million Americans" posts

Very clearly shoved out of bounds, right in front of the official who missed the call live.

Horrendous inbound design from Indiana there. Interestingly, the whole fuck up was started by the Pacers making the classic mistake of missing layups that should have been dunks.

Some simple budget math: Give out $4 trillion in tax cuts and cut spending by $1 trillion, and you'll get a $3 trillion increase in the national debt. Denying these realities doesn't change them (and yes, the bond market has noticed).

Elon threatening to just leave people on the ISS is making a pretty good case for why you nationalize your space program!
