Increase your confidence interval.
From the Ed Sheeran concert in San Jose last night. Really glad I went. I’ll be withholding the video of my brother and I singing wildly off-key.
Kevin Sorbo is 67. He doesn’t get to pretend to be some stupid Groyper born after 9/11 who sincerely believes the country’s biggest city isn’t vastly safer today than it was back then.
To be fair, surveys differ on what the most Republican generation is. @gelliottmorris.com's polls by Verasight have put Boomers a shade to the right of Xers.
“Gregg Phillips is in charge of hundreds of people and millions of dollars.”
The @financialtimes.com ran a near-identical version of this story earlier this *month.* I’m voting for the candidate who promises to put heads on fucking pikes.
This comment only makes sense if you haven’t read anything else he’s written. Repeating vague characterizations of how bad this presidency has been to an echo chamber doesn’t do anything. Ezra’s column is worthwhile for its long memory and articulation of hope for the opposition.
Why would one believe that Crockett was a weaker general election candidate than Talarico? Well, for one: Talarico didn’t publicly suggest that the majority of Texas Latinos had a slave mentality in a state that has a plurality Latino population.
Yeah, just a heads-up: @foodandvibes.bsky.social is a MAGA agent provocateur.
Yeah, just looks like a pro-regime account pretending to be a leftist stock character. I hope you realize that most members of this administration will receive their due judgment when their attempts to turn us into a police state fails.
This tweet sounds like domestic terrorism, dude. You better not be quoting the Declaration of Independence in reference to the incumbent US federal government’s actions!
The irony is, you can’t even pass your own suffocating purity tests, whose sole purpose is to force people to choose between leftist revolution and fascism. Even people supposed to be part of your revolution turn to fascism. Tulsi Gabbard is now in charge of MAGA’s national security regime.
This excerpt is insane, from beginning to end. Here’s an @nytimes.com piece on Karp that comes from a very different angle (but also involves tai chi).
Say what you will about Bret Stephens. He’s a Jewish American writer with many Jewish colleagues. And this isn’t a fair summary of his column at all, which you didn’t quote from beyond the paragraph in the tweet. He refers to the “National Security Strategy” as laundering far right talking points.
A landmark in data-driven political science that comes with info-packed charts galore. My personal favorite:
Newsom isn’t throwing transgender people under the bus by not explicitly signing this specific bill (which will go into effect if he doesn’t act), and California has established some of the strongest trans protections in the nation.
His approval rating is in the mid-to-low 40s. Remind yourself of this whenever the incumbent government tries to lie to you.
Unsurprisingly, you moved the goalposts, and cited a survey commissioned by an anti-Israel group among Democratic primary voters in one big city in so doing. And there's little evidence that Israel was a determinate issue even among young voters . . .
