It is interesting to me* how this total military, geopolitical, & economic omnishambles is not being covered in the press with remotely the same fierce EPIC DISASTROUS FAILURE urgency that Joe Biden’s not 100% surgically clean withdrawal from 🇦🇫 was covered 🤔 [*It is not remotely interesting to me]

This is probably one of those situations where conservatives will go bonkers and then it will counterintuitively end up benefiting everyone who owns a car.

it's sort of tough to explain just how gutted the federal government is right now because inertia gives it the appearance of running well-enough along until so many roads and bridges break that it can't do anything at all. [the pundits will, in this event, recommend additional cuts.]

democrats still seem to be laboring under the delusion that they can introduce stuff to pass while trump is president and they, not trump, will somehow get credit for it. they learned nothing from trump taking credit for covid stimulus checks

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

None of them can talk coherently about strategy or goals but they are completely in sync in all their macho posturing because that is all they’re really focused on. Everything else is just whatever limply offered fiction is convenient to them at the time.

Total abortion bans may have reduced rents by 4 percent (?!?!?!?!?). That shows huge demand for living in states that protect women’s lives. California should expand housing production as a matter of civil rights because living here means you simply have more rights - something people really want!

If you get into a “who can cut taxes more” battle with the GOP, you’re going to lose because they are far more shameless and antagonistic to the idea of living in a functioning society. Don’t concede to their framing that taxes are nothing but a problem to be solved.

The public is bad at understanding tax incidence or the second order effects of taxes but surely part of the problem is most newsrooms don’t even try to relay this information.

What’s crazy is for every one “town” that has gotten too big in recent decades to be quaint, there are at least a dozen dying towns in the Rust Belt that are plenty empty, and contracting rather than expanding why can’t all these nostalgia freaks move there and leave the rest of the world alone

Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers
The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

One thing I feel ought to be discussed more is the fact that basically all rural and suburban places in the US are subsidized by cities. They resent cities. They insult cities. They elect politicians who abuse cities. But none of them could survive without cities.

Lots of folks cling to the idea that this comes down to Biden's inability to "sell" these accomplishments. I'm sorry, though, that's pure cope. Whiny resentfulness toward Dems & cities is *constitutive* of the RW worldview today, not something that can be turned on & off with policy.

If accusations like the US intentionally destroyed a desalination plant prove true, elite accountability will become a national security imperative. Rehabilitation into multilateral security arrangements will require repudiation of the administration’s crimes, and imposition of a credible deterrent.

The trend shift in adults per family household is so insane. its even more insane that every important policymaker and economist thought we were slowly soaking up a glut of homes even into the 2010s. And it’s even more insane that there are still supply-crisis skeptics today.

If you're wondering about US Capitol Police's opinion on Senator Tim Sheehy after he attacked a protesting veteran that they were in the process of also attacking... they gave him a patch. This is what the Capitol Police think of protesters. Remember j6th with that in mind.
