I guess the short form of my objection to the whole "abundance" thing is that it's a bunch of people who are literally doing this thing and have mostly convinced themselves they're not doing this thing

actually the number of people who care about the nonpartisan defense of free speech is exactly the same as it was

You can avoid getting hoodwinked like this in the future by remembering that modern conservatism has no universal principles. Whether they're for or against something depends entirely on who the beneficiary/victim is

you can say they're not sane or their arguments don't pass constitutional muster till you're blue in the face. they have the power. they're doing it. And unless they are stopped they will keep doing it.

preaching to the choir here but people should understand that the end goal of the right-wing anti-trans push is the total subjugation of women and enforcement of dogmatic gender conformity onto every American

when they conceived of the 2nd amendment, the founders failed to consider that one day all the gun owners would decide that tyranny is awesome and just use them to shoot the ups guy

I think Abundance Agenda stuff is basically rooted in the same logic of the New Deal, that to dave democracy people need to see democracy deliver

Antisemitism is structurally necessary to Elon Musk's politics, because his identity is rooted in being an underdog fighting against the real power, but as the world's wealthiest person, who is deeply politically connected, he needs a definition of elite not rooted in wealth or corporate ownership.

Says something that Trump pardoned people who beat police officers and trashed the United States capital but if a Dem wins they’ll be like dang I guess everyone who put dog poop on a Tesla should serve the full 12 years

Do you think, if Joe Biden was like “we’re going to cause a recession but after that we’ll have a golden age,” that the Washington Post would say “oh he’s just not explaining his plan very well”?

the reason they hold so tightly to this idea that elite universities are indoctrination factories for far-left ideology is because their own sons and daughters are now beyond their command and they cannot fathom any legitimate reason how their offspring could willfully reject their parents’ values

I don't think Democrats should surrender on "DEI" for the same reason I don't think we should surrender on "trans sports". The actual demand in both cases is that the affected caste of people disappear from public society, and that is not something we should (or can!!) deliver upon.

These are the same Senate Democrats who lectured the base for years about the importance of preserving the filibuster so it would still be available when Democrats were in the minority

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

This is 24 hours apart. Never forget this. They are liars. Their resistance is fake. They want to be powerless so they can reap the rewards of pretending to resist while risking nothing and attempting nothing. They are the reason the country is where it is and we won't be safe until they're gone.

Students were told for years that, actually, hate speech was protected speech and what was needed at universities. They were told that heckling such speech was itself a sign of intolerance.

I’m neither young nor woke. In fact I’m kind of a stick-in-the-mud. A few weeks ago, I was at a dinner that included Sarah McBride. We had a pleasant time and interesting conversation. It wasn’t at all a burden to treat her with decency and respect. Republican members of the House might try it.

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen? We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.
