One of the reasons this is happening is that people are going to college and then wanting to live in particular areas. And deferring marriage. And a lot of other behaviors that no one really wants to think about. (And no, not deferring marriage because of money. That trend began 40 years ago.)
college and home ownership was affordable but now there's Trader's Joe's. On balance, I guess it's the same

Our politicians are speaking for us in Chicago: Homeland Security needs to get the hell out and leave us alone.
Federal agents pepper-sprayed a baby girl in Little Village this weekend. There's no limit to what these thugs will do.

To make Chicago safe again, we need ICE and CBP to get the hell out of our city.

Federal agents were shot at, according to the Department of Homeland Security, while legal observers said agents created a "dangerous and unsafe environment."

6/6 They didn’t collapse under pressure.
They followed their incentives...not the party’s...not the country’s.

That’s all it was. They f*cked all of us...for selfish-ass reasons.

5/6 They assumed outrage would fade.
That’s how senators survive messy votes...betting on short public memory.
They didn’t think they’d face consequences.

Nobody breaks like that unless they feel protected.
So the simple answer?

4/6 Inside the building...they believed continuing the shutdown would hurt all Democrats more than their own defection would hurt them.

Their donors love “deal-makers.”
To you us...it looks like surrender.
To their funding ecosystem..it looks like “adults in the room.”

3/6 Donors...committees...leadership pressure...not public fallout.
This was almost certainly a “rotating villain” move.

Leadership signals who can safely break ranks.
It’s a known pattern in Washington.
They thought the PR war was already lost.

2/6 They weren’t playing the same game.
They weren’t at risk.
Not up for reelection. No personal cost for losing leverage.
Their incentives were different.

1/6 🧵A newsletter subscriber messaged: "Yes, I get the implications. What I don’t get, specifically why in that moment when they were dealing with a strong hand, those eight Democrats broke rank and caved"

Trump: "We had a guy named Buttigieg. Boot-edge-edge they say is the best way. Just say two 'edges' like off the edge of a cliff — which is where they were taking us, by the way."

So inflation and cost of living has been going up every month since this administration took over…this administration that promised it would all come down on day 1?

Now it’s because of the previous administration?

The one that had nothing to do with tariffing the entire planet?

Makes sense.

U.S. boat strikes are crimes against humanity. Even if some of these people are criminals, criminals are not soldiers. “The U.S. is alleging it can kill whoever they want” “That’s… a very bad trend for the world”
