We desperately need to denationalize every damn election.

I dont want to hear about the mayor of NYC this much.
I should not care who is state senator for a place I would only ever be a tourist.

People are freaking out that the daughter of a popular pol is running for STATE SENATE.

Not US Senate, not congress but the California state Senate.
Christine Pelosi, daughter of Nancy Pelosi, has announced she’s running for the California State Senate.

If people are really truly serious about third parties, then they need to move away from FPTP everywhere possible.

There is a lot of ways for elections to work but everywhere that is FPTP ... you trend towards two parties.
you cannot create a viable third party without changing the constitution.

to change the constitution, you need control of one of the major political parties, at minimum.

anyone refusing to accept this is a fucking child i'm tired of entertaining.

A bad deal is not the same as a cave but silver linings don't make a good deal.

I just literally last minute got one of those phishing dms.

So as a heads up, its still going around.

I know everyone is upset about the deal, but don’t worry. We’ll be doing this again in a month.

Even if you think that ending the shutdown had to be done...

There is no rule that say you have to be a fucking bag of chickenshit and scream "Standing up to bullies didn't work"

The fact that the deal expires on Jan. 31 is what makes it tolerable.

The best case scenario for us is what?

A short term CR so we can do this again next quarter?
Or a long CR that gets ACA subsidies back?

If it happens today or next week or later I don't see any other options to ending the current shutdown.
if the break is as reported- a short term CR- seems like we might want to do this again in January
I think if senate mods want to break, they will break, but it's really important they do it without cover from the caucus or leadership

Is the story becoming that they are going to cave? or is the story that there is a rumor they will cave?

That's two very different things.
One difference between this fight and last fight is that multiple outlets had heard of specifically Schumer whipping votes.
This time its mostly, so far, Axios saying they heard vibes.

Thats more what we usually see when its just shit stirring vs any dem cave.

Cursed thought ... MTG trys for it and gets it to use to stabilize her career and try to rebuild her brand as a maverick.

I think she would throw then entire GOP under the bus to do that so it won't be all bad but it would be still very bad.
I can't tell if this is currently 1) unthinkable or 2) conventional wisdom but I kinda think Johnson is going to lose the Speakership when the House comes back in session

People gave Trump a ton of moderation credit for being rhetorically softer than his peers on the welfare state but in practice Trump has been way more aggressive on that then even the most wide-eyed reactionaries

I am not a lawyer but to me that absolutely does not sound like nullification.

I think the jury was like me and no matter how it was explained they could not get to the idea of "injury" a thrown sandwich.

When she was elected we knew she was going to face an extreme amount of evil... but its still shocking and terrible to see.
someone went up to sarah mcbride in front of the u.s. congress, hurled her deadname at her loudly and called her a pedophile repeatedly, posted video of the exchange to x, and it is now going wildly viral

i will not share the video

but if you’re not speaking up about this, you’re hurting yourself

He has not entered office yet and people are already going berserk.

No one is ready for how weird it'll be because in addition to everything else there will be anti arab racism that a lot of people are not used to seeing and so will do infinite contortions to avoid having to deal with it.
