wrote about this last year and sure I wasn't in any way the only one but imo people voting for populist politics in the 21st century *is* a sign that they do just have too much faith in institutions, as opposed to not enough - they want to have their little tantrum but assume things will just hold

Just for shits and giggles, let's explain what happened with this Iron Dome vote.

A primer: The House just passed a defense appropriations bill with a significant level of funding for Israel. Specifically, it funds both munitions being used in Gaza and Israel's defensive Iron Dome. (1/8)

Old painters were really impressive. We know from old photos that there weren't any colors in the 19th century, so the painters all had to guess at what colors things would be. And they all got pretty close!

You know how people say "It looks like ass" sometimes? Why is it a negative thing? From what I can tell, ass is pretty popular.

Stop calling it Alligator Alcatraz - Alcatraz was a prison, whereas the people at this place haven't been convicted of anything. I would recommend calling it Alligator Auschwitz.

the best part of the NYC election was when he said "IT'S ZOHRAN TIME" and zohred all over those guys

I have some hope that national Dems will learn something from Zohran's win yesterday. Not much, but some.

Please pass this on to anyone going to immigration court. ICE is staking out courts to kidnap immigrants trying to do the right thing. This is a process to have the hearing virtually and eliminate that danger.

There's a weird left-QAnon thing starting up centered around dubious claims about the 2024 results popping up at the periphery of the internet. I feel like we're gonna hear more and more about this so just laying down my understanding of it now.

I think its basically a hoax.

If I were Zohran, I'd be bragging about the NYTimes' weaselly pseudo-endorsement of Cuomo. Who wants to be recommended by a fascist rag?

I'm in the minority, and maybe a small one, but I think these administrative stays are genuinely harmful and should not be treated as routine.

A federal court has ruled that a dramatic step of national significance was illegal and unconstitutional. It ruled.

I keep seeing Trump voters saying "I didn't vote for this!" Let's be clear: you did vote for this. Maybe it's not what you wanted, but it is what you voted for.

How many times have you seen this play out:
"Leftist": Why aren't the Democrats doing anything about this?
Someone else: The Democrats are doing a lot, actually. Here's a list.

I am so sick of all these think pieces about how the Democrats need to be doing more to rein in the Republicans, as if the Republicans were wild animals, incapable of rational decisions. Why is no one in the media holding the Republicans accountable? They could stop Trump at any time.
