My wokest opinion is that there shouldn’t be any private high schools or elementary schools.

Education is a matter of the common public good and everyone at the K-12 level should have an equal opportunity with the same resources to attain a common educational baseline.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The haters said they couldn't do it. And they were right. Honestly, great call from the haters.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Brand new data:

Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).

These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.

Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

HUNT: Dems have argued that the norms of our govt should be that you negotiate policy outside of a shutdown

GALLEGO: You're talking about norms in a time of Donald Trump?

H: But Ds have spent so much time arguing that maintaining norms is incredibly important

During the shutdown, Trump could find $40 billion to bail out Argentina & $300 million for a ballroom to host dinner parties with billionaires, but he won’t tap emergency funds to prevent millions of American kids from going hungry?

How cruel is that?

Republicans had a choice to either:

1.) Usher in a new party system through racial depolarization and rule forever through rainbow fascism

2.) Risk blowing it all up in a second civil war for a country that’s 2% whiter

Was there any doubt where they’d land?

President Trump’s White House demolition is a small example of why his bull-in-a-china-shop approach has appeal, Ross Douthat writes. “The president’s eagerness to pre-empt objections and just do something that seems necessary is part of why voters find him attractive.”

The arguments against it illustrate a consistent problem with progressive stewardship of American cities.

Because she's the hero America deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

So we'll hunt her. Because she can take it.

Because she's not our hero. She’s a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.
