I just heard some tired old Dem hack on the @11thhourmsnbc.bsky.social say that Dems need to show they are “serious” about cracking down on gangs (they weren’t?) before criticizing sending innocents to foreign concentration camps. These old hacks need to toddle off to Boca.

Marco Rubio is prepared to cut all aid to NATO and the UN, and he's revoking visas of students who've committed no crimes. But he's always come across as weak and submissive, so we'll keep on branding him a moderate for his entire career.

The @environmentalvoter.bsky.social has "identified a dramatic gender gap among climate voters in all 21 states studied ... this gender gap is most pronounced among the youngest voters (aged 18-24) and among Black voters." Seems women are becoming more pro-social & men are heading the other way.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs less to house people.

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years as a result of a deliberate strategy. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.
