this is part of the context in which the midterms will be held. wouldn’t be surprised at efforts to denaturalize ilhan omar, eg. and arrest other dems on specious charges.

The weaponizing of antisemitism to beat back the left is something we've seen increasingly for the past couple of years. People really need to start recognizing it for what it is.

I'm not saying there aren't undocumented people in this country; obviously there are. but the shape of the discourse around immigration for coming on 20 years now has convinced me that immigration is actually a glonzo issue

It’s really important to remember that Dems aren’t just being racist and defamatory in a vacuum. They’re doing it on behalf of Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo: two criminals

I genuinely think Nate Silver believes that Joe Biden shut down the schools in 2020. And if you told him the problem with that line of thinking he’d of course say he didn’t believe it but then immediately go back to believing it, there’s alot of people like that.

I'm OK with Democrats going on Fox News to counter misinformation and debate the conservative hosts or moderators. Going on Fox News to slam another Democrat should get you stripped of your committee assignments and DCCC funding.

the thing that finished Franken wasn’t even that he’d groped the ~dozen women who came forward, it was that it was clear that he’d groped many many more who hadn’t come forward yet. the bar is really very high to get me-tooed out of elective office but he cleared it

Federal injunctions were fine when they hurt students and poor folks. Now they’re bad because Trump wants to trample the Constitution in peace? Be serious.

there is no jurisprudence at work here. the republican court believes that anything a republican president is presumptively constitutional, even if it directly violates the unambiguous constitutional text and causes total chaos in law and policy.

Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

It is far past time for bishops to start wielding their authority to excommunicate and interdict—I'm sure there's a canon you can use to enforce it with.

Looking at the comments under the USCCB post today on FB about religious liberty and the rights of migrants, it seems an inescapable fact that there’s been a massive failure in catechesis when it comes to what the Church teaches on the issue

Zohran Mamdani’s plan to tax the rich is a 2% tax on income over $1 million. If you make $1.1 million, you’d pay an extra $2,000. Watching working class conservatives and politicians completely meltdown about this is wild.

The big subtext: It's low-grade unusual for Catholic bishops to do sign-on letters with other traditions, but high-grade unusual for a group of bishops (as opposed to individual prelates) to do so in a way that pushes beyond what the USCCB has done, much less on the same day!

When it comes to a Muslim Democrat (who is also critical of Israel) winning an election, you just need to be at least as normal about it as Bill Kristol. Let's call it The Bill Kristol Test. Kirsten Gillibrand has failed the Bill Kristol Test.

It’s very funny because I and all fellow military families grew up with groceries from government-run commissaries, doctor visits with government-provided health care providers, and sleeping in government housing, and everything else was paid for from a government-provided paycheck.

Buffalo’s acting mayor is a staunch police union ally who has attacked efforts to crack down on police misconduct, & has also called for rollbacks to the 2019 bail reform law. He lost last night in his primary, and it wasn’t close.

Whenever I see Dems claim they are out of power, there’s nothing they can do, I think of Brad Lander and how he escorted people to court while being comptroller and running for mayor. Do something or get the f out of the way so there can be more Brad Landers.
