The Battle Hymn's theology is that of a 19th-century Boston minister. There is no grace for those who do evil in the name of faith. It's pretty good theology, and we aren't even Christians. -OS

The truth is, these are not very smart guys, and it got out of hand.

[Earvin Magic Johnson @MagicJohnson]

I hate that the Celtics officially have more championships than us now 🙄

[Ben Twohig @ben3hig]

@chandlerbford But the real question remains…how do you feel about bananas?

[Ben Twohig @ben3hig]

@chandlerford97 Gonna win a lot of fans with this take

[James Medlock @jdcmedlock]

The long term impact of Joe Biden’s presidency now rests in large part on the extent to which he can convince Joe Manchin not to be dumb

[Scott Lemieux @LemieuxLGM]

The idea that people who refuse to get vaccinated are making a personal consumer choice that only puts themselves at risk is the most abject nonsense imaginable

[Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼 @Noahpinion]

Making this child allowance permanent is priority #1 for Dems.

[James Medlock @jdcmedlock]

I’m really hoping Dems remember that this may be their last chance to pass anything for a decade.

There’s a particular style of conservative discourse emerging that takes a menacing tone but is too cowardly to say the actual thing they want because the writer is self conscious enough to know they don’t really mean it.

It's getting tiresome to repeat this, but Republicans don't get to unilaterally define what counts as a failure to reach out to them. No one should pretend any of these claims are being made in good faith. They aren't.

[b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie]

convinced that none of these people have any actual idea of what it is you’re elected to congress to do

[Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur]

Sen. @ChrisMurphyCT tells me: “Nobody in my state knows what the hell reconciliation is. They believe that Joe Biden said, ‘If we win Georgia, we’re getting $2,000 checks.’ And we won Georgia. So we have an obligation to follow through.”

[b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie]

republicans will spend the next four years insisting that the 74 million Americans who voted for Trump are “the people” whose will must be respected and that the 81 million Americans who voted for Biden are the “elites” who represent no one.

[Dan Amira @DanAmira]

Can’t believe the creators of the monster have lost control of the monster, is there any precedent for this in books or film

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

Again, this this weird phenomenon where all politicians are increasingly just *posters*. He's a senator! What has he done about the wages? What has his actual lawmaking done about this problem?

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

he's pouring money into GA to hold a GOP senate *right now*
