New from me in @newrepublic.com: “Primary Every Democrat.”

If the current crop cannot demonstrate they care more about democracy than enjoying three-day weekends, we should flood the zone and challenge them all.
Primary Every Democrat
It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.

look there are a lot of takes to be made and had but at the end of the day, everyone on their side is lame, and those lame-os know it and have big feelings about it. there's no fasc bad bunny. all they get is the barely animated corpse of kid rock.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance required 9,852 theatrical pyrotechnics, nearly 400 costumed extras, and a lot of ingenuity. And yes, that was a real couple featured in the wedding. www.wired.com/story/bad-bu...

Anytime I’m reminded that Clay Travis still exists my brain reflexively responds with the words “cry more.”

Can’t stop thinking about how all the people who hate Ronald because he doesn’t play baseball “the right way” would actively choose watch a janky alt stream of decrepit Kid Rock just for the show of it because it’s “in English.” I love this choice.
Oh it was pedro- RONALD ACUÑA JR??????

Sato’s skate could not feel more different than Malinin’s. That was like watching an ice ballet?
