Vance follows a coterie of online Nazis on X, has described Curtis Yarvin as a major intellectual influence, and openly attacks immigrants in blood and soil terms. The response of most of the political press? "Doesn't look like anything to me."
For the last couple of years much of the media has had the most incredible unwillingness to learn literally anything about JD Vance. Never seen anything like it. Active resistance to learning anything about his ideas.
jesus man, tell me you have no idea who Claremont is or JD Vance's record as a postliberal

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

gallego knows that ideological purity tests are not the way to win elections.... running high-quality candidates who match their districts is. the left message on affordability in particular is something i expect to resonate with a lot of disengaged voters (when the left is not the incumbent party)
Gallego on Mamdani: "It's okay to say 'I disagree with this, this, and this, but I agree with that.' But the idea that we're just gonna throw out people that are really bringing in new ideas to the fold, exciting people, just because they're slightly to the right or to the left of us is dumb."

I feel like “the president is illegally deploying the military on domestic soil” is maybe something we should not be giving this administration the benefit of the doubt on, or moving with anything less than lightning speed
but apparently the courts do not agree with me

An appeals court allowed President Trump, for now, to keep the California National Guard deployed in response to protests in Los Angeles, blocking a federal judge’s move just hours earlier that ordered the Trump administration to return control of the troops to California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

This is how I feel, too. I think a large part of how we got here is that test-based K-12 education is so deeply flawed. There is almost no reading or writing compared to when I was in school. Then, when students hit college they've never practiced those skills, so of course turn to LLM's.
This is just so incredibly sad to me.
It's not just that people think they are clever for hacking their way through school without work.
It's that they don't WANT to learn new things. They don't WANT to improve skills. They don't WANT EDUCATION. nymag.com/intelligence...

Hey parents,
If a friend is complaining about the waking nightmare that is negotiating an IEP for their special needs kid with the school district, you should *absolutely* not chime in that you totally understand the frustration because your son didn't get into an Advanced Mandarin class.

Every now and then it hits me that this isn’t just about 1 inhuman act or another, but a bigger picture.
That the entire democratic experiment in America is falling apart in front of our eyes. It’s historic in that sense. Which then makes me wonder why all media stories aren’t framed this way.

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.
