The quoted passage should be in the dictionary next to the word “sophistry” - the way Yglesias works back from “we must try to win North Dakota” to arguing “you can’t make certain claims about race or climate change” without ever actually addressing the substance of whether those claims are true.

Democrats needed to play up constantly that these people rioted, they attacked the capitol, they tried overturning democracy. They didn't. They failed. It needed to be played over and over and over.

I don't blame you if you're not following the "no tax on tips" bill closely but the current text is a federal income tax deduction for the first 25k of tipped income, which it goes without saying is a far cry from the "you keep 100% of your tips" campaign rhetoric, lmao

I mean, these are the stupidest people on the face of the earth. Looney Toons style stepping on a rake. I do not care for these pieces. These people deserve nothing good.

Here’s a small, easy thing Dem communicators can do: when stories like this break, call the reporters and a) ask to be contacted going forward on stories within their jurisdiction, b) give them a blistering statement, c) blast it out on all channels. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

So Trump’s USDA is now saying that it accidentally fired officials working on bird flu and is trying to rehire them. If bird flu escalates into a pandemic, with this kind of leadership, we are going to be toast.

"Hey there, what happened with your applications to Wayfair?!" says the Job Board that I've been using for the last two months. "I don't even know what number application they were that day" I respond, despondent knowing they somehow rejected me in just 24 hours.

you don't talk about stuff like eggs or long lines at national parks because those are more important than the coup against the rule of law. you talk about that stuff because getting low information americans mad at Trump about that stuff is a precondition to getting them to care about the big stuff

Insane to run this. I get that the opinion section should be allowed to give a voice to even the stupidest of people, but this is just asking for violence. Moronic.

Can't (I don't want to) ask this on Twitter, but for everyone that knows my content, is there a something I did that you genuinely can look at think was really well done? I am trying to build a portfolio of media content and thinking of things. I'll link some stuff below as things I did for Dust2.

Danielle Sassoon resigned rather than carry out the Trump administration's order to drop corruption charges against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, setting off other resignations within the Justice Department and standing up for the independence that has defined her Manhattan office for decades.

I think this is true but the appeal of Musk is real. As real as the appeal of crypto. Scam all the way down but his fans think that scam could work for them too if they get into the pyramid. Pretty similar to fundamentalism.
