Conned? lol it’s a business model that guarantees every item will be more expensive and less capable. Military grade means junk most of the time. There are like 3 companies eligible so there is no incentive to try hard and profit is the only goal

Incredibly, there's been no real discussion of the positions on immigration that Abigail Spanberger took en route to her blowout victory. So I took a look. What I found challenges a lot of pundit narratives. It's all in this piece and thread:
This has gotten lost: Abigail Spanberger won big after vowing to RESCIND Glenn Youngkin's executive order directing local cooperation with ICE and voting AGAINST the anti-immigrant Laken Riley Act. Yet she gained bigly with working class.

New piece laying this out:

In other words, it was very very very bad news
The White House says that key inflation and jobs data for October will “likely never” be released due to the government shutdown.

The last time a shutdown delayed a jobs report was in October 2013, when the report was delayed by a few weeks.

Lots going on but from outside it seems that at least part of the calculus was that flight disruption for middle class and up travelers matters more than life disruption for untold numbers who’ll be deprived of health care.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

On the one hand it continues to be disgusting that he demands fealty and terror from his cabinet but on the other hand I love how much he hates Vance lmao

I dream of a world with consequences for pundits.

A hilarious failure like this should always be a career-ender. Nothing dire or violent, mind you. Just… never paid for an opinion again.

Condolences on everybody who now needs to write articles about how resistance to fascism is super unpopular and can’t win. It’s a tough job, but at least it pays well.
Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.
