Trump & Likudniks: “Lol, that wasn’t the point.”

Finally this comeback is making sense

Weirdly hoping just one university folds to this demand just to see if Roberts court gets weak knee’d about enforcing their own affirmative action precedent.

@sky.skymarchini.net Columbia’s endowment is $14.8 billion. They can ride out 3 years of this. Some big ticket alumni might side with Trump, but I bet a bunch of alumni with significantly less disposable income are eager chip in to piss off Trump & fascists generally.

Someone should ask Marco Rubio why students are being deported for saying the same things the guy Trump is honoring with his first foreign visit has said.

It won’t be enough to oust Trump. These creeps have have to be hobbled

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social Mulling over creating a niche Noah Feldman acquiescence bot that rationalizes Republican criminality and appeasement to it.

Kinsley gaffe

I’m sure I don’t need to alert @timmiller.bsky.social but I’m going to anyway

“Huckster that doesn’t believe anything” Sounds like a Romney man to me

@uticaeric.bsky.social Just baffling how easy it was for Republican donors to build a Potemkin intellectual class that was instantly treated by their opponents as legitimate representatives of “conservatism” and wide swaths of the American electorate.

🧵This is so damn cool!!! And, of course, NIH $$$ were used in this study

Just ask Paul Ryan

Primary him. Let him become a Republican. That way he stops being oneof the GOP’s go-to Democrats to launder their lies.

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote the book "Administrative Burdens" and it's just objectively untrue that no one will face "unnecessary burdens" b/c *non-citizens almost never vote! *About 20M citizens don't have access to citizenship documents SAVE solves a non-problem by burdening American citizens.

This is how we lose free and fair elections—it’s not that elections go away, it’s that the GOP manages to make it impossible for slivers here and there to vote and thus lock in a majority of WHO votes going forward.

Now imagine if they fought back collectively

Insurers’ denial rates are a critical measure of how reliably they pay for customers’ care. But they remain mostly secret to the public. Federal and state regulators have done little to change that. (Published 2023 w/ @capitolforum.bsky.social)

@sky.skymarchini.net Eager for someone to find out if Trump and friends made some wise investments before the tariff announcements.
