On the internet, no one knows you're a dog. Retweets are not endorsements, but are interesting, amusing, or worth noting. If you want my opinion, ask me.

Where is George Soros on this list? I can’t seem to locate his name for some reason

NEW: JD Vance told House Republicans today that they’ll take the blame for a government shutdown if it happens. He warned they’d lose momentum on securing the border and lose credibility with voters @meredithllee https://t.co/7nFvgBpzwM

[Reese Gorman @reesejgorman]

JD Vance emphasized the importance of Republicans maintaining political momentum, and made the point that Republicans would be blamed for a shutdown since we’re the party in power.

He got a standing ovation, per source familiar.

He is now taking questions.

Stephen Miller could not have been more explicit that Trump planned to do exactly this before Muslim- American voters in MI supported him in unprecedented numbers. With their votes they empowered this after he repeatedly told them he intended to do it

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

I know there are a lot of takes this week and it's hard to sort through them, but this is a really important read today.

@Mikel_Jollett Mine too.

[Charles P. Pierce @CharlesPPierce]

And somewhere, Ron Klain sighs deeply and pours himself a strong one.

@Will_Bunch @MichaelEMann That'll leave a mark.

Prophetic words from Alexander Hamilton to George Washington in 1792 — as apt and timely today as they were over 230 years ago.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

This is not merely a coincidence.

It is deliberate.

We must not sit idly by as fascism rears its ugly head in America.

Remember, the Constitution does NOT stipulate the number of Supreme Court justices — that’s set by Congress. It’s been legally changed seven times over the years, with the size of the court varying from six to ten seats.

Since there are currently 13 federal appellate courts, many would argue that it makes sense to expand the Supreme Court to 13 seats. There’s also a broad public consensus that Congress should impose term limits on the court, along with a strict code of ethics for the justices.

What do you think?

Humans tend to underestimate their impact on the non-human world, while overestimating their ability to rectify the damage

This study has me shook: with #climate change, under-stress ecosystems could collapse 80% earlier than previously thought

English badgers always look like proper gentlemen. American badgers always look like they’ve never had healthcare in a society fueled by war mongering and rugged, every man for themselves individualism.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Remind me how it’s unfair to lump the Republican establishment in with anti-democracy Trumpists?

Key 2020 election denier Cleta Mitchell is invited to speak to RNC donors — and promptly embraces voter suppression as well as election denial. https://t.co/WewscBEI0j

[Oliver Willis @owillis]

the one time democrats said "fuck it, lets just do what we like and damn the polls and conventional candidates" they nominated... barack obama, the most popular political figure of the last 40 years.

[Adam Serwer 🍝 @AdamSerwer]

@rev_avocado That happens, but it's also the case that the reactionary political commitments make it possible to be a member of the sectarian overclass without having any connection to faith whatsoever, they take the place of observance.
