Ezra Klein was honest, once, close to twenty years ago when Lieberman killed the public option and his career has been apologizing for that ever since
Ezra Klein had a hilariously bad 2025: started with that embarrassing Abundance book, declared Marie Concentrationcamp Perez the future of the Dem party, wrote that Charlie Kirk was doing the politics the right way, and argued that Epstein kept his pedophilia separate from his business life.

always remember that in November of 2024 antivaxx the big fear was that black people wouldn’t get the shot because they didn’t trust the government (go back and read the articles). you could see the republican switch happen in real time when the Dr Seuss thing flopped

combine this with the medicaid cuts and you have Poor Child Measles Genocide

the new TX map is going to be interesting. turning 4 R+10’s into 5 R+8’s starts looking like you put some stretch districts in play with a swing like this
This race was such a massive swing blowout that Democrat Taylor Rehmet literally won a city called White Settlement

the first time I noticed this was when Bill Belichick’s letter to Trump leaked—it wasn’t shocking that he was a Trump guy, but that he completely mirrored his vocabulary and cadence while sucking up

there is some irony to the fact that it seems likely that bob kraft’s decade long lobbying operation helped ratfuck bill belichick out of the hall of fame, only to be immediately revealed as jeffrey epstein’s best friend

Boy I wonder if there is one ideological project that unites all the disparate people across academia, media, sports and politics we’re hearing about today

STEPHEN MILLER: so you've gone through all of these files and made sure there's nothing incriminatory about Trump or his friends and associates, right

Trump has the unique ability to put up numbers like this before anything actually happens. Minnesota’s one breaking point, but we also have a formal recession on the table, AI bubble stuff, foreign policy *really* going sideways…he’s post Katrina Bush without a Katrina. Yet
Pew has Trump's approval at 37%. And:

"Only about a quarter of Americans today (27%) say they support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, down from 35% when he returned to office last year. That change has come entirely among Republicans."

I got podcast and article brained too much in late 2025 and moved a lot of my 401K into cash and paper and while I have felt silly at times I think embracing Ed Zitron Thought will have saved me quite a bit in the end
so funny this immediately happens when software companies can’t pretend that ai was anything more than money moving between 10 different companies over and over and doesn’t lead to any real growth

and now to the representative for washington’s cookie monster pajama pants district
Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (one of 7 Democrats who just voted to fund DHS) defends her stance.

Argues funding for ICE "is not the question." Instead, Senate Democrats have leverage for various demands.

"I think they could negotiate to replace Noem with someone that doesn't skirt the filibuster."

my employer-pushed AI training includes tips like “subscribe to all the models just in case one is better at the task,” “make sure to check everything because they hallucinate constantly” and “rewrite all the text so it doesn’t sound like AI”

I don’t even think young people are mad at JKR (or aware of); Harry Potter was just the first YA lit phenom and now that’s all the industry publishes
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

Younger generations “have fallen out of love with Harry Potter because they have fallen out of love with the worldview the series represents,” writes Louise Perry. “Which is to say that young people have fallen out of love with liberalism.”
