Cas Mudde spells out what has become largely the consensus among researchers: moving right on immigration will not weaken the far right nor strengthen social democracy. If your reaction is "but in Denmark" please at least familiarize yourself with Danish politics

The ‘Danish model’ is the darling of centre-left parties like Labour. The problem is, it doesn’t even work in Denmark | Cas Mudde
This week’s local elections are the latest reminder that when social democrats move rightwards, they’re making a mistake, says academic and author Cas Mudde

I held back further criticism on it for a few more days because she had asked. It was an absolutely scummy thing to do to take advantage of me trying to meet with her in good faith and then her never actually meeting. I still think she's the wrong person at the wrong time to represent our community.

Sarah McBride reached out to me in August through an intermediary to ask me to tone down the criticism of her after this post because it was her birthday. She also wanted to meet with me to discuss the issue. She asked for my availability. I sent my calendly and she never booked a meeting.
Sarah McBride's first bill is a handout to billionaires running private equity funds who want to fleece retail investors.

Sucking up to private equity billionaires won't save you.

It’s always great to see the orange felon being booed everywhere he goes, especially when the boos are thunderous like those he received at the US Open men’s final in New York. He should be in jail, not watching tennis whilst destroying the country.

Comedian George Wallace and Jerry Seinfeld were roommates for 13 years.

This softens my stance on Jerry Seinfeld somewhat.

Not much, but this really is cool

It’s that time of year again. Back to school for the kids.

This ad should run during every NFL kickoff, every college football opener, every “Friday Night Lights.” Because school shootings are as American as football now.

Trump won’t do shit because he’s Putin’s Bitch and Republicans in Congress are Putin’s Bitch Enablers. None of this is possible without weak Republicans in Congress who are afraid to call him out clearly and directly and instead post weak ass shit on social media.

America voluntarily destroyed itself in the dumbest way possible. It's so painful and also darkly comic. I mean, it's just remarkable how the most incompetent and reckless people were elected.

What else did people expect?

All of this could have been avoided.

Alas. We're in it, friends.

📌Can somebody tell me why this kind of unhinged, fascist derangement from the President of the United States isn't on the front page of every paper in America, followed by a call for him to resign?
This grotesque nonsense has been normalized long enough.

TRUMP CAN'T SQUAT
The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.

In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

🚨Action Required🚨

If you are attending the U.S. Open tomorrow, please record and share what we won't be able to see. The administration is attempting to hide the truth, but with phones in everyone's hands, that's a tough task. We are all journalists now.

There's a reason tennis has sunk to triviality in this country in the last 40 years

It's terrified, condescending management like this www.nytimes.com/athletic/660...

I’ll say it again: police unions aren’t real unions. They’re right-wing protection rackets for cops.

📌 NEW: The LAPD just pulled protection from former VP Kamala Harris after pressure from police unions. This was only in place because Trump yanked her Secret Service detail.
