I think it's useful to learn from how right-wing media actually operates here. They try out tons of different attacks and repeat the ones that seem to create a lot of buzz in other media sources.

This is most of the reason but remember it next time they tell you how important the senate is for allowing slow and careful deliberation and debate

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but this is my annual reminder that if your family is disrespectful of your identity, derisive of your values/interests, or just unwilling or unable to treat you with the warmth and kindness you deserve, YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

I mean insurers, builders and homeowners will eventually HAVE to come to terms with the fact that a bunch of cities now get washed into the Gulf of Mexico every 5-10 years, no matter how much state governments double down on denialism 🤷‍♂️

Like a lot of elite academics, what Jason Stanley actually values is his comfort and his ability to use his position at a premiere college to parlay into a plum gig as a part of the commentariat class.

Just looked up this Bazelon nitwit. Figures he’s a 22 y/o white Yalie from a privileged family who AFAICT has never worked on a campaign, has never worked for a campaign (superPAC doesn’t interact w the campaign), and is yet another Ivy/Ivy-equivalent convinced he understands the white working class

If you’re wondering why ICE Agents, even behind their masks, seem like a bunch of pathetic losers, it’s because that’s exactly the kinds of people who join secret police forces: people who are such failures that a repugnant job is the best they can get. Data:
