Practical advice for people in the US : read clinical guidelines from other countries to stay safe. For us in other places we are used to doing that but you may not. Check out the UK, Canada, Australia, France, etc. Many countries are comparable in infrastructure but have reasonable policymakers.

Probably the very last person to post this, but holy shit. This is unheard of. I don't think I've ever seen an election where youth turnout exceeded middle-aged, much less elderly people. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/29/n...

ICE already can't meet their detainment numbers without rounding up children, veterans, people born in the U.S., people with no criminal records, people at immigration hearings, plus academics and visitors with valid visas. So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget? The answer is: you.

My hot take on Jeff Bezos' wedding: That $50 million price tag is double what the US government was spending annually on food and medicine for 5 million AIDS orphans before the Trump administration canceled it. We are literally letting orphans die rather than make this guy pay taxes.

if you're a politician based in new york city, trump saying he'll withhold federal funding from the city if mamdani is elected is far more important than any other bad faith question you are asked about mamdani and it's the only thing you should be addressing.

How about we have party leaders focus on the words of a United States congressman - Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - who’s calling Black people “inner city rats” who leach off of America’s taxpayers. Stop the focus on municipal elections and get to this. Where is the censure and condemnation?

Underappreciated 2024 trend: Relative dropoff in Dem vs Rep turnout among younger reg. voters. Easy to mistake this as a swing right but it’s turnout. If young Dems matched Rep turnout rates, they’d have netted 2.5-3.5M votes—might not have flipped election but likely would’ve swung popular vote.

It’s politically negligent that the Association of American University Professors doesn’t have a PAC like other interest groups. Scores of #Harvard professors already have pledged 10%(!) of their salaries to help Harvard fight the Trump admin. Imagine that nationally. #UVA @dynarski.bsky.social
