The people who made Spitting Image (the original, actually good one) said making a caricature of Thatcher was difficult because she looked so normal, and this just adds to that

I'd say most left-of-centre folks think both are good, it's just that online partisan commentators will act as though Palestinian/No Kings attendants aren't a mix of liberals, socialists, and others

I think what's lost in the discourse over whether or not AOC runs for President/Senate is that there is a lot to be gained in running for Senate over President purely looking at political longevity.
Running for President is a one and done deal, after your term you can't do much, unlike in the Senate

I'm not going to tackle the dogwhilstes (the proof is in the QTs and replies) but NYC is a city w/ decent public transport and low crime. Bakersfield (which was in Kevin McCarthy's district) has a higher crime rate that NYC. Come on!

Initially I was shocked and then I remembered because Joe Walsh was a Republican he's carried over the "I don't care who the candidate is as long as hes in my team" mentality to his new Democratic colleagues

I'd be curious to know what @mattyglesias.bsky.social defines as lying, given that Cuomo lost his primary as a Democrat and decided to keep running instead of being a team player for NYC Dems.
By my definition that would constitute as some form of "fighting"

If I'm going to believe that Newsom understands 21st century American polarisation and it's Realpolitik rules, then by publicly declaring support for greater state capacity he's going to negatively polarise GOP legislators/governors into doing the opposite. Masterful

AOC-Zohran endorsement room temperature take is aimed at people who post like this. First of all, what is this meant to mean? Zohran can't be so weak that he desperately needs her endorsement, but also so strong that her endorsement would be career ending (for her??)?
So odd.
