Black liberal who likes pragmatism. Definitely wrong about something. Wary of identitarianism and the far right.

A key paragraph in the huge NYT editorial on Trump's first 100 days:

@ZmagsIDP @RonFilipkowski That was in 2008 under Bush. Obama didn’t take office until 2009.

@akloveusa @Joyful1500 Are you just as skeptical of heartland small towns where people know their neighbors and local businesses? Because these places also effectively “limit your movements”

@annbauerwriter @Noahpinion Um

[Thomas Sherrer @_thomas_sherrer]

@VickieforNYC @guypbenson Republicans are a little more likely to date someone with different political views, but the difference isn’t huge (6-8%). IMO you only hear of progressives doing this kind of thing because algorithms push content that reinforce existing views.

White identitarianism is going mainstream in MAGA conservatism. “Who could have seen this coming?”

@AntiCommieBecca @SwipeWright @jordanbpeterson What’s keeping you on the right?

Would Gaines feel similarly bothered if someone said they didn’t want to date a theologically conservative Muslim?

[Acyn @Acyn]

Gaines: It’s ironic because this is coming from the crowd that claims to be tolerant and accepting and embracing of diversity

@politicalmath Are you conflating “reopen schools with PPE and lockdown an individual school if outbreaks occur” with “do not reopen schools at all”?

@MagaPrimary2026 @MarcRummy @JennMGreenberg Are there any medical interventions that you trust?

Major right wing figures are now openly calling for a dictatorship because the Constitution doesn't let them send people to prison for life without trial and they don't wanna do immigration enforcement in any of the many, many ways the law does allow.

@basedKneecap @Ike_Saul I agree that President AOC shouldn’t defy the Supreme Court

@RebekkaAdams198 @StatisticUrban The tweet that Hunter responded to claims that Biden let in 30M new migrants.

[Carl @HistoryBoomer]

Katherine offers a brief thread on some of Darryl Cooper's (Martyr Made) Nazi apologism. (There are many more.)

Again and again, he defends or downplays Hitler's crimes. He suggests Hitler was doing his best, he was trying to make peace, he wasn't THAT bad.

Pure garbage.

[Jack @tracewoodgrains]

there would be no more poetic and tragic way for the conservative legal movement to end than via a Faustian bargain with Trump securing a majority that allowed generational victories, followed by collapse in the rule of law as Trump trampled them anyway

[Devonte Nakamoto 🇺🇸🧢 @devontenakamoto]

@RebekkaAdams198 @StatisticUrban This article is about the *total* number of undocumented, which includes migrants who were here before Biden
