Agreed! Once a month I think about that scene where they're debating about blowing up a bridge, about the collateral damage, and they go back and forth back and forth, and finally Johnson says "Oh just blow up the damn bridge." It says so much--the crystallization of so much about History.

Then let it be Warren. Warren's a fantastic idea.

I think you need to be careful with the word "they", as if they're all the same. They're not. The majority of Dems in Senate, certainly overwhelming majority in House, didn't want to cave. Some cavers rep states we're lucky to have any Dem. Others need to be primaried. We can start with Schumer.

Not to pick on you in particular, but can we not be more accurate in language? "The Democrats"? The majority of Senate Democrats and I'll wager nearly every Dem in the House was ready to go the distance. and "No" interest? Wrong, just wrong. Sweeping statements are unhelpful.

Exactly. how dare we put the 10 billionaires on one side of the ledger....
instead we should lump the oppressed and the oppressors together? and then what? arrest people who look Mexican?

I'm okay with asset value being based on belief (to a certain extent.) But "the belief that Elon Musk is awesome"? That belief? Really?? That's what bewilders me.

But I don't even understand that. If Elon was blasted into space never to return, and Tesla was taken over by folks passionate about a cleaner world and sustainable future, I--and surely millions of others--would consider buying a car there's no way in hell I'd buy at the moment.

I had to look at that picture twice. Cause Mamdani is "Just a Democrat" (to me)--so I thought Cruz was critiquing people fanning flames of islamophobia. Wrong again.

No, there's nothing obscure in a law forbidding people in Kentucky not being allowed to vote in the NYC mayor election (I'm sure a lot of them were hoping to vote against Mamdani, that Mao/Stalin/Ayatollah). No, we shouldn't treat folks like they're dumb, but we shouldn't infantilize them either.

I mean--that might not be a joke. Her vibe for a month now has been notably different from, yknow, her howler monkey go-to.

Anyone who doesn't have complaints about capitalism is a sociopath. Especially naked capitalism with all the guardrails and brakes removed. Every "democratic socialist" country in Europe still has plenty of capitalism.
