We did a bunch in this convo w Ezra that I think was quite distinct from some of the other convos he’s done about abundance and it gave me a lot to think about. #WITHPod youtu.be/OduMs9gAd8M

Can't believe I listened to Nobel prize winning economist specialising in trade on a Saturday night! #TrumpTariffs But recommend for those still imagining/hoping there is some 'masterplan or deeper strategy' - there's just "layers and layers of wrongness" "Never been anything like this craziness"🧐

The administration's response to the Signal debacle is just suffused with contempt for their own voters. Just an endless belief that the people who support them can be tricked into believing the laziest misdirection imaginable.

So much of "Abundance" is about failures of government in California specifically. So I was pretty damn interested to hear what @gavinnewsom.bsky.social thought of it, and how he'd answer some of those critiques. Then he invited me on his podcast. youtu.be/Bt_LQNS7hmU?...

Listening to this in advance of reading their book Abundance. @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social and @dkthomp.bsky.social are so spot on. I am hopeful this helps people crack the code on pragmatic and effective progressivism. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Excited to join @ezraklein to talk through what happened in 2024. There's a turnout story this cycle, but not the one we're used to talking about. With less-engaged and less-likely voters becoming more Republican, a larger turnout meant a more GOP electorate.

“There is a policy failure haunting blue states. It has become too hard to build and too expensive to live in the places where Democrats govern.” @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social

"The populist right is powered by scarcity. When there is not enough to go around, we look with suspicion on anyone who might take what we have. That suspicion is the fuel of Trump’s politics. (...) The answer to a politics of scarcity is a politics of abundance."

"Something was different about this speech. The level of baldfaced lying. The way Republicans cheered along. How uncomfortable and uncertain Democrats seemed. It was as if, watching it all, you could feel something rupturing." Captured by @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/05/o...

The great point Ezra makes in this episode is that, if AGI is really the biggest revolution in history and is coming in the next few years, why aren't the policy discussions more urgent and detailed? Policymakers just kinda shrug and say they don't know what to do...

Today’s episode of The Ezra Klein Show. The Biden Administration’s A.I. adviser Ben Buchanan discusses how the US Government is preparing for artificial general intelligence — and all the challenges that remain. open.spotify.com/episode/6u7l... youtu.be/Btos-LEYQ30?...

Enjoyed Abundance. The audiobook is read by @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social & @dkthomp.bsky.social Will be a landmark for a rising YIMBY & science-focused vision of the Democratic Party. Compelling stories & ideas on housing, energy, science, health, & tech, well-packaged: libro.fm/audiobooks/9...

This discussion between @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social and Fareed Zakaria on the Trump administration's foreign policy is outstanding. Depthful information and insightful perspective to the last minute.

Everyone should listen to Ezra Klein’s podcast in general, and this interview with Fareed Zakaria in particular.

In the midst of this hair-on-fire political season, I was refreshed by the innovative ideas in this article/podcast with @repauchincloss.bsky.social and @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. We need more thinkers like this to question our status quo, but do so with *actual plans*—not “concepts of plans.”

My conversation with Ezra Klein on building new cities and taxing the daylights out of social media corporations. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tnQ...

@ezrakleinbot.bsky.social + @repauchincloss.bsky.social There should be more democrats talking like this

Today's episode of The Ezra Klein Show. @qjurecic.bsky.social discusses the potential constitutional crisis that the Trump Administration could trigger. open.spotify.com/episode/5Qv8... youtu.be/Ak8hLat0_-Q?...

This was a really insightful conversation. Feeling very thankful for @thebulwark.bsky.social @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social

Worth listening to this interview with @karaswisher.bsky.social and @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social ... Kara really has the smartest and what seems to me to be the most accurate take on Elon Musk that there is, because she has covered these tech bros for years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xXL...

This was one of the more edifying (and entertaining) conversations I’ve listened to in a long while. If you want to understand Musk’s radicalization and what he wants to do.

From @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. "If you’re always consumed by the next outrage, you can’t look closely at the last one. The impression of Trump’s power remains; the fact that he keeps stepping on rakes is missed. The projection of strength obscures the reality of weakness. Don’t believe him."

Excellent by @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social "If you’re always consumed by the next outrage, you can’t look closely at the last one.
