I oppose a two-state solution on principle but I still think it's entirely possible and could even be implemented within a year's time if the US and Europe felt it necessary to compel it, the issue has always been that the West does not feel like a resolution to the Palestinian plight is necessary.

It is completely wild to me that the American media has made a far bigger deal about a bunch of things that Mamdani DID NOT SAY than the political assassination of the Democratic leader of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Elites aren't even using their existing mechanisms set up to allow deniable messaging. Go look at PhRMA, the big bad lobbying group; they've got nothing to say about their NIH R&D pipeline being destroyed, nor about the worst regression in public health and vaccine acceptance in U.S. history.

a state representative, her husband, and their fucking dog were murdered because the state rep protected abortion rights. you couldn't say anything bad in mainstream media about "David Duke without the baggage" Steve Scalise for years because Republicans would throw a fit and he didn't even die

Actually what Americans just saw today was a prominent Republican US Senator announce he is quitting because he knows this budget is going to hurt millions of people and he was repeatedly threatened by the president and his cult for telling the truth about it.

Which is what identity politics as coined by the Combahee River Collective, was intended to do. Be the center of a critical politic that builds solidarity within and across identities that share that questioning of power, not a replacement for that critical politic.

I hope people can find Zohran Mamdani's answer on Meet the Press today to Kristen Welker's question about Rep. Andy Ogles calling for his deportation. To hear it & watch him is better than just the static words: "It has been difficult, it is difficult to have to deal with the regular and . . ." /1

A two party system relies on a zero-sum voter game. In such a system the party establishment prefers to lose elections than to expand the game, even when there are tens of millions of potential new voters, and even — perhaps especially — when a candidate appears who can mobilize them.

There's something really interesting going on here methodologically in Justice Jackson's Medina v. Planned Parenthood dissent. You can see it in one footnote. In short, Jackson is emphasizing that Black Americans are part of the original "public" about which "originalists" should be concerned.

My 70 year old auntie who has also just voted regular Dem her whole life is on the Zohran train full speed. She's telling all of her friends that they need to rise up against the billionaires. She never listened to me [lol] but somehow the messaging has broken through.

I hope Harvard’s administration heeds the strong case @ryanenos.bsky.social and @stevelevitsky.bsky.social make in this piece. To give in to the demands of an authoritarian government would risk the university’s credibility and make it complicit in the erosion of American democracy.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Part of the reason that I’m so strongly pro-immigration is, well, because I’m the great- great-grandson of immigrants. I don’t know the truth of the story of my great- great-grandfather’s (and his cousin’s) journey from the west of Ireland. But I know enough to know that they weren’t “desirables.”
