How does Jesus becomes useful to corrupt systems
Power does not want Jesus.
Power wants the appearance of Jesus.
So institutions do this, they strip away his refusal of domination, they ignore his opposition to hypocrisy, they silence his warnings to the powerful, they keep his

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor, yeah
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess

The way our current press works is: GOP are given unlimited credulity. Every statement they make is seen as truth and the Dems need to address it.
While Dems are given none of that.

Inserting a theoretically worthwhile provision stopping Trump and Vance from the same sort of trading.
Good...except who signs the bill?

This would be a great time to have an opposition party
Confirmed: House Democratic leaders have decided to use a stock trading ban bill as a campaign issue rather than actually pass something that had the GOP support to advance.
Jeffries' team is actively discouraging participation in the bipartisan bill and warning outside groups too.

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.
That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

If a state can withdraw supranational citizenship rights from its people without consent, compensation or appeal, what does that say about the security of rights more generally?

Yglesias referring to Senator Van Hollen as a "safe seat clout-chaser" is so despicable. VH took a stand to prevent Abrego García - an innocent man - from being disappeared into CECOT for life.
matt & co’s theory of how public opinion on immigration would respond to new information was simply empirically wrong.
at this point the only reasonable conclusion is they refuse to update their priors w/ new data because the data is inconvenient for them

I don’t give a shit if random people don’t think sex work is “empowering.” Working food service or as a receptionist wasn’t empowering for me. Work is just work it’s not that deep.

I got one of these. Regrettably, despite having a couple interesting ideas, the challenger has tried to make the incumbent's age *the* issue of the campaign.
