Lots of people wondering why Sen. Murkowski caved. She admits the simple answer in this interview—she is not brave enough to be the hero and yet too cowardly to play the villain. Her personal shortcomings will directly hurt millions. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/14/m...

The executioner describing the process clearly at hand, yet distancing his own role in it as if he’s not been the one holding the guillotine rope. And laughing all the way to the bank.

It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them.
It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for.

I want everyone in my family who voted for trump to feel that deep, personal conflict when made to confront the reality that their choices directly affect my life. As in climate change, COVID or my job as a federal scientist. Sit with that discomfort and look me in the eye and tell me you love me?

Anyone else struggling to find simple, salient messages to share about these times with their friends who may not (yet) be directly affected by geopolitical events? Looking for easy to communicate, easy to understand, broad consensus messaging.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Trump has an intuitive understanding of bargaining and power relationships, informed by decades of experience in real estate and media. But leading by example or inspiring others to be better versions of themselves? Not so much. It will cost us.

Add in preservation of the entire IRA and you’ve got yourself a deal, Cheeto breath.
agree with this take, but the key is that you have to use the leverage as David says
If Democrats can get Trump's proposed debt limit elimination, they should absolutely do that and not look back. The case for it is blindingly obvious.

Listened to the excellent @volts.wtf episode on climate change and insurance today. It struck me that people are so inured by the words climate change anymore that maybe we should instead refer to everything as climate RISK? It truly is the nut when it comes right down to climate effects.
