the ADA was probably the last piece of great bipartisan American legislation on civil rights, and it's fiercely under attack from a deeply ableist administration. But it's a great achievement!
Is there anywhere on Earth with better accessibility in public spaces than the US?

We’re far from perfect but FFS even in Canada there are still apartment lobby doors everywhere that need two functioning hands to open, and nowhere near enough curb cuts.

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis
Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

One underrated aspect of Zohran is that he always wears a suit, always presents himself professionally while still doing fun and approachable retail politics. You don’t have to drape yourself yourself in hypebeast and post thirst traps, you can be fucking grown up respecting the office and be fun

Keynesianism is like Ozempic in that it's something that works but makes people mad because they want moral hazard to be involved
There’s a certain kind of person who thinks Keynesian stimulus is “putting off” a necessary correction and I’m always amazed how many of them there are.
What if MAGA did the Great Leap Forward?

I think there is a significant benefit to formal factionalism in blue states so voters can have a clearer idea of what kind of democratic majority they have

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

They told me if I voted for Kamala the market would crash, and then we’d probably have a recession. They were right.

Giving the President a big red "Destroy the Economy" button was kind of a Chekov's gun situation. That's called planting and pay off.

I’m voting HELL NO on the Republican CR. It hands Musk and Trump a blank check, turning your tax dollars into a wanna-be dictator’s slush fund. No accountability. Just corruption on autopilot.

I don't remember who said it, but the fault line growing within the party is not ideological, it's about whether or not you understand the importance of fighting.

There's something even more maddening than usual about watching this cheap, pampered little thug presuming to lecture a guy who's worth 50 of him.
BREAKING: There has just been a huge argument between Zelenskyy, Trump & Vance in the Oval Office.

Trump calls Zelenskyy disrespectful and says he “is no position to dictate” to the US.

Trump raises his voice to Zelenskyy. He can’t stand someone standing up to him.

This is unbelievable.

The premier of BC just opened by talking about how Canadians helped fight the fires in Los Angeles. I'm not sure how many other areas of life are going to be disrupted in a trade war, but this is obviously going to be much broader than price hikes at the grocery store.
Trump officially orders tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico and China
