I'm not sure it's had as much coverage as Canada, and it's not quite as dramatic, but Australia's election on the 3rd May is also offering a comeback story for an incumbent centre-left party in a fair degree of trouble before the election was called.

Your regular reminder that almost everything Trump is getting away with is not because of presidential strength, but because of congressional weakness and judicial deference. The constitutional tools are already there to fix this, but those who can fix it are refusing to do so.

As far as I can tell, The Masculinity Crisis is about two things considered problems: - It's hard to meet women - Women are everywhere Always feels like these two problems should resolve each other, but I'm no sociologist

None of this is true, and I, for one, still believe in facts. 1) Autism is not an epidemic 2) Vaccines don’t cause autism 3) There will not be significantly more information on what causes autism in the next five months

The bond market can't be intimidated, corrupted, or coopted. It has no sentimental attachment to "norms." It is a remorseless, cold-blooded machine which measures risk. And unlike SCOTUS, Paul Weiss, and other institutions, it understands exactly what time it is. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-fina...

So absurd: Trump's aides are telling him working class voters love his tariffs. But recent polls actually show majorities of non-college voters say tariffs raise prices, and disapprove of his handling of them. I looked at the data. It's striking. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1937...

Pushback works! translated: We have power. We can oppose — & reverse — abuses. (a 🧵) “after three days of public outcry and lobbying from the Navajo Nation president and the tribal council to the White House and the Pentagon, the Defense Department on Thursday evening abruptly reversed itself.”

People still talking about the Dallas Morning News not showing up to cover the April 5th "Hands Off Protests". For non-Dallasites: 1) The protest was literally under a mile from DMN headquarters 2) The nationwide protests have been planned for weeks 3) Other Dallas media covered it

I get this take, but again most crashes aren’t one event in particular. It’s not one day or one week or even one month. It’s many events in the wrong direction. The 2008 crisis unfolded in slow motion over like 18 months.

It's good that Trump partly folded in response to EU retaliation & a stock market collapse, but a 10% tariff on the world and 125% on China, plus an added atmosphere of chaos and unpredictability, is so much worse than the status quo ante that we would have been called alarmists for predicting it.

BREAKING: House GOP leaders have inserted language into the budget that would prevent a vote on reclaiming tariff powers from the president.

🚨🚨 The House is pushing through the Senate's fake-math amendment to their Medicaid-destroying budget TODAY. And now, they're also sneaking a provision into the procedural rule that will block any attempt to undo Trump's tariffs. Demand your House Rep VOTE NO on both the Rule and Budget Resolution!

Congress could stop Trump’s tariff policy at a stroke. This story is ultimately not about presidential power, but about congressional weakness.

It's crazy that nobody is reporting (outside of the WSJ, who had it in one sentence at the end of an article) that OpenAI hasn't actually received any of the money from SoftBank, and that SoftBank appears to be borrowing their entire part of the funding round. group.softbank/en/news/pres...
