Prediction: I will be arrested within 2 years.

Huge swaths of this country are hell bent on revenge and if we don't have a party who will channel that rage towards the people who deserve it, they're going to settle for the cotton candy nutrition of petty grievances against trans kids. SOMEBODY LEAD THEM.

An excellent deep dive intp the dats behind FIRE's "campus free speech" rankings. You won't be surprised to learn they are bullshit, riddled with errors and willful misrepresentions. This is not a serious organization and we would stop treating it as such. www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

Nate Silver 🤝 Noah Smith Knowing nothing about the past, skimming Wikipedia and not doing the reading, and assuming they’ve invented a new way of understanding human history

The death of any child is an unspeakable tragedy. Since October 7, Israel has murdered, at a conservative estimate, around 16,000 children.

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

has a single mainstream journalist acknowledged that it was a massive media failure to treat project 2025 as a closed issue just bc trump lied a couple of times about not supporting it

worth mentioning again that senate democrats’ plan for strategic confirmation votes in exchange for blocking the worst nominees was a complete failure

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

They're dismantling the agency that can, if it did robust enforcement, fill the deficit. For every $1 it spends on enforcement it generates $5-$9 in revenue. We lose ~1 trillion dollars each year to tax fraud, mostly from the rich. Musk paid no income tax in 2021 www.propublica.org/article/the-...

the whole 2020-2024 era of “dems shouldnt aggressively use the levers of power bc then republicans will do the same thing when theyre elected” sure looks dumb as dog shit right now huh

I agree that democrats should stop listening to influential pundits and consultants.

hey @mattyglesias.bsky.social, the piece that you link to here — my piece — does not say that “all DEI critics want to reimpose segregation” and i would appreciate it if you didn’t lie to your audience about what my work says.

i think the “NPC” insult is dehumanizing and illiberal and *rich* coming from a guy who thinks entirely in mindless dinner party cliches. in fact, all you need to know what he will think about anything is to know what parties he goes to.

They arrived at the United States border from around the world, hoping to seek asylum. Instead, they were detained, shackled and flown by the U.S. military to a faraway country, Panama. Our exclusive look at a new front in Pres. Trump’s immigration crackdown:

As this article spells out, one tiny problem with "it's the wokeness!" is how Democrats crushed it when they were at their most woke. This was all in 2020 before the election. Then in 2024 they backed away from it and lost to a bunch of the same people they beat in 2020.

one of the stupidest things i have had the misfortune of reading today and i am sharing it with you.

is this bad?

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

This is what I think of as a specific kind of ignorance that heavily affects young white guys who work in tech. It says “i don’t know about this, so I assume no one else does either.” It’s new to them, so it must be new to everybody!
