The left will not admit that women do be shopping

The best part of any Delaware political biography is when the author, who clearly was friendly with the subject and their family, has to contend with the fact that they were a huge racist

Don't put it in the paper that I'm a Clinton apologist though. Just because he didn't start there doesn't mean that it was acceptable to end up there.

For the US version of this, I have been listening to this book about the Clinton presidency, kind of expecting a general critique of neoliberalism. Instead, they've unearthed Clinton's ambitious plans to reorganize the US economy in a more progressive direction, and how it died on the rocks.

Now that Venezuela has won the WBC, it's time to ship Donald Trump over there for prosecution

There are certain days where you can better understand the deep human need to believe in hell.

The 2008 financial crisis caused a crisis in Delaware's political economy that we are still dealing with the repercussions of?

My favorite new political tic (among both the left and right of the Democratic Party) is treating Gavin Newsom like he's already the Democratic nominee for 2028. Don't worry, pretty soon we'll figure out he was the only Democrat actually doing pizzagate for real and he'll flame out.

On April 18, 1988, something astounding happened in Delaware. In the deepest depths of an era focused on catering to business and wealthy white residents, Rev. Jesse Jackson pulled off an upset victory in the Democratic caucus for president in the corporate capital. (1/5)

I’m going to put all these Gavin Newsom 2028 and AOC 2028 discourse to shame by starting the Graham Platner 2028 discourse

They're calling it the most exciting Super Bowl of all time

We will not rest until every NJ congressional district is held by a former WFP state director

It is funny how much discourse there is on the left about the lack of an American socialist or labor party when all of those European parties swung right basically as much as the American ones did around the same time, and many are even worse than the Democrats now jacobin.com/2026/02/labo...

“Pedophile also racist” is a real dog bites man story

A big part of the internal mythos of Trump 2.0 was that they were going to redo the 2020 protests but "do it right" by using violence against protesters. Now that they have actually done that, and it turns out that it is making them even more unpopular and creating an even larger swing in opinion.

People making fun of this, but Rahm Emmanuel is a certified expert in regimes where law enforcement agencies kill people will impunity

Thank you @mcbride.house.gov!

It was not nearly as high stakes as any of the notorious cases of this, but I've experienced this firsthand. Was parked behind my church one night (was in a rough emotional state and looking for somewhere quiet) and got the cops called on me. He flashed a bright light and started yelling at me.

Just finished this and it does a pretty decent job of explaining the story of how this happened

To be fair, x.com does sound like the kind of place someone would to get CSAM so everything’s working out as expected

Bill Clinton was Jimmy Carter’s Wario

My take on the campaign strategy discourse is that political campaigns are essentially battles for the fraction of your consciousness that most people devote to this stuff. All of us have lots going on in our lives, and so the vast majority of people, even regular voters, don't do in-depth research.

Susie Wiles, welcome to the resistance

Damn, it'd be crazy if something very similar to this had been happening for years in Wilmington's white-dominated downtown business districts www.delawareonline.com/story/news/l...

One of the myths of corporate or centrist governance is that it’s more responsible and data-driven. And yet our beloved corporate Wilmington mayor is just making up phantom homeless people from Philly to justify a crackdown that doesn’t address root causes

Very cool that they played this ahead of the Eagles game youtu.be/hdOXfqXJE2s

Under-discussed in the combo blue wave/Dem Tea Party is the active hollowing out of the college-educated workforce through public policy, AI, and general recession conditions which is accelerating the pre-existing trend towards lefty economic ideas and anti-establishment political ideas

Didn't want to speak too soon, but as soon as the people starting forecasting doom for Democrats among Latinos, it made me go back to the 2004 to compare. None of these things are permanent when conditions change, and we can not abandon the necessity of organizing a multiracial working class base.
