I think Trump-as-Putin-asset is not unfounded but clearly functions for many as a story to tell themselves that preserves American innocence. Trump does not need to be controlled by Putin to still benefit Putin because both are authoritarian illiberal nationalists

setting aside the fact that the entire white house staff is utterly poisoned by online in a way that actually exceeds any democratic staffer, it is incredibly pathetic that they look at trump's temper tantrum and see "strength"

Again, none of this is going to change unless we acknowledge we can't house this many people under these conditions and we move the supervision of medical care outside of ODOC. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

One of the core beliefs I've adopted in the last few years is that we generally underrate how goofy and stupid the American past was and that being attentive to that helps us see continuities with the present. It's actually not obvious we live in dumber times. Every day tests this belief anew.

1) it’s money. The right wing has an enormous amount of money being given freely, which creates institutions that maintain coalition discipline 2) neoliberals are actively opposed to the goals of leftists and progressive liberals 3) leftists infight for fun and tradition :3

Very unserious response. The PD crisis was created by police overarresting, DAs overcharging, and public defense (from attorneys to paralegals to investigators to secretaries) underfunding. DA lobby desperately wants this to be OPDC's fault and not their own. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Biden should’ve minted the coin, nuked the politics of debt ceilings, showered manchin and sinema with pork, made the pandemic CTC permanent, wiped student debt clean, introduced price controls, and secured a generational mandate. But instead we’re getting tax cuts for the rich and cuts to Medicaid

Please. Yes, WWE is beyond amoral. (I have an article tomorrow re: Linda McMahon) Yes, CM Punk isn’t Joe Hill. But people gotta stop looking down their noses at this. It isn’t “cosplay”. Punk knows a CTU activist and given the devastating context, a lot of teachers are feeling seen. That matters.

The police union’s response to @councilorkanal.bsky.social proposed changes to police oversight & accountability borders on hysteria. My union — @cwa7901.bsky.social — endorsed Kanal and this is exactly the kind of leadership we were looking for. Show up and support his amendments!
