I find it very disturbing that so many peoplr are mourning or denouncing the death of what is, in the most direct way, the modern day Baldur von Schirach Who was the leader of the Hitler youth from 1931 to 1940.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

I keep seeing the argument that Trump can't do X because it would be against the law.

You do realize he is a multiple time convicted felon, doing things against the law is kind of his thing

First new blog post in quite some time. As part of my 2025 resolution, I will try to share my opinion more often! First post is about the new Florida Halo Law

"Florida’s Halo Law: Protecting First Responders or Shielding Accountability?"
How Florida’s Halo Law risks turning a shield for first responders into a sword against public accountability.

Culture wars are distractions. A class war would actually address the root issues: inequality and a system rigged for the powerful. Let’s focus on what really matters instead of staying stuck in endless divides.

We asked journalists around the world who have endured attacks on press freedom what advice they would give their American colleagues. We have collected their wise and remarkable responses in a special issue of @niemanreports.org. “Dear America,” they wrote.

I guess it’s my turn for one of these “new here” posts. 👋

I work in politics and as a public servant, so that’s where most of my interests lie. I’ve got strong political opinions I’m ready to share with the world—this seems like a good place for it (and it gives my wife a break from hearing me!).
