To note very bluntly my view of the next span of years, I will quote Neville Chamberlain: "It is the evil things we fight against, brute force, bad faith, injustice, oppression, and persecution and against them I am confident the right will prevail."

Come on, good fucking gravy, this is not “pro-ICE,” and it does not preclude further, more comprehensive action when Dems have the power to do so. Right now they don’t, and they’re holding the line on trying to get what they can *now*.

So did Luigi killing that guy change anything? Did united health change their policies? did they change their rates? Or did Luigi just kill someone and you are celebrating violence as justice itself? if so, that's a fundamentally right-wing and fascist belief system and not leftist at all

This actually does surprise me on some of the medical stuff, I had sort of taken for granted that the people who talk about how China was the cutting edge of medicine anyway at least somewhat seriously, but I'm not so sure.

People always act like the United States being a fading power would be a good thing, but it seems like when we stop doing things like medical development and foreign aid, that nobody else seems to be able to step in and do it instead.

I'm convinced people don't remember when a lot of these people were Ron Paul fans and only felt they had to come over to the Dems because they were trans and badly want to go back, which at this point is Trump because Trump filled the Ron Paul hole in these empty lives.
Sometimes I’m convinced people want Dems to actually be anti trans so they can point and say they were right versus substantive laws/policies

Dems derailing DHS funding indefinitely as a minority party is actually about the same level of unprecedented obstruction, if we’re keeping score.
Ten years ago today, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died, kicking off one of the greatest crimes committed against democracy when Mitch McConnell invented a pretense to deny President Obama a nominee, and everyone in power and media just shrugged and acted like he could do that.

You think the racist part is putting Nazi tattoo guy in the middle, but the real racism is lightening Jasmine Crockett by 73 percent.
A base that has long made pragmatic, sober decisions appears increasingly attracted to charismatic outsiders who promise to break from the party’s failures of the last decade. They see their party’s leaders as feckless and inept.

Border enforcement is no longer nearly as politically palatable to Americans as it was because DHS is directly abusing American citizens and permanent residents at massive scale every single fucking day, instead of sporadically.
There’s going to be much more interest in actually fixing immigration.

The best you could do politically back then was to promise to control the border through draconian methods because Congress wasn’t going to appropriate resources or change the rules to control it (and also let lots decent ppl in) by reasonable means.
Now the situation has changed dramatically.

really interesting to me how many professional political commentators have basically retconned the draconian immigration enforcement policies of Obama and Biden out of existence and have completely swallowed the right wing narrative of immigration enforcement

This plus now I'm seeing people say that because BLS issued a downward revision on last year's numbers there must be shenanigans*. But this as always happened, only it used to be right-wing people saying it was signs of a compromised agency.
My menchies show a lotta distrust about the official jobs numbers right now.
Lemme be clear: I don't believe there's *any* political meddling in these numbers.
While the President has tried to mess with the BLS, he failed. I explain in a lot more detail, here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kncV...

I was vehemently anti on this particular choice and I think we're going to learn to regret it sooner rather than later now that the donors have learned they can force changes by holding their breath.
Except when they are chosen by Obama, Pelosi, and Clooney in a smoke filled room, then there really aren't primaries at all
Candidates in the US are selected via partisan primaries which are administered by the states and are open to anyone who can meet the qualifications, generally a set number of signatures. The parties are not involved in the candidate selection process unlike in strong party systems.
