One of the most frustrating things right now is the press is still treating a 1% victory like it was a 20 point landslide.

The real problem with so much of our political discourse is that it simply ignores math. We argue with math.

Kamala Harris did not move an inch politically. However, Republicans came running to the Democratic side. Not only that, those Republicans NEVER talked about their conservative beliefs. So now I know why you all said that the messaging sucked. It’s because you’re all actually ignorant and stupid!

The War Room tonight includes probably: Donald Trump, J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard. Good night, and good luck.

You know, when Dems do things you gotta amplify it you can’t just scream they’re not doing anything and then when they do something you don’t acknowledge it

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

This is what Trump's government thugs are willing to do in broad daylight, to a US Senator, with cameras on. They are sending the message that anyone who disagrees with Trump isn't safe in America. This is authoritarianism.

I know that dunking on the Times is too easy, as it's something that unites most of bluesky, but this is really terrible coverage. It does their readers a serious disservice and puts the Times in a position where all of their subsequent reporting can't be trusted

Biden burned a considerable amount of political capital trying to reign in Israel. In many small ways he failed but in a few big ways he succeeded.

Trumps return to power was built in no small part on a rightward shift among Latinos. Coulda maybe been the beginning of a durable coalition, but instead Trump did what he always does when someone puts themselves out there to support him: immediately fuck them over in the most explicit way possible

I don’t understand why it’s not a bigger deal that there are zero examples of trans people in sports being any kind of problem. All their examples are like “this poor swimmer tied for fifth with a trans girl” or “a trans girl made the track team, which is very unfair to whatever cis girl didn’t.”

I am very team @apnews.com and recommend downloading their free app. Read it in the morning and evening. Like a newspaper. You’ll be more informed and focused without the noise of what hits your social feeds.

OK, and this headline and subhead shouldn’t have passed a decent editor on journalistic standards. You’re reporting, not building a narrative or soft spinning.

Walsh didn't just change parties. Over the last nine years, he has slowly but significantly shifted his entire political views to the left of center because he's been exposed to the realities outside his previous RW bubble. This isn't a D party moving R, it's an R moving left bc he learned.

I’m sure they would be if the press would actually cover it. And I don’t understand why folks like you with influence aren’t pressuring the media to do better. Because that’s the real obstacle to the “messaging” problem. It’s not the Dems who are mostly letting us down, it’s the media.

Russian interference is an important part of the story, but I think sometimes it gets talked about in a way that elides the role the network of people willingly spread their talking points and lies, and the fact that the audience is gleefully self-selecting

We should consider how social media has ruined the discourse on, well, pretty much everything.
