@ChrisMurphyCT The takeaway here is that the Democratic Party brand is damaged

[Billy Binion @billybinion]

A lot of Democrats a month ago: "We need to eliminate the filibuster to stop fascism!"

Many of those same Democrats now: "We need to use the filibuster to stop fascism!"

I am begging people to think about this for, like, 30 seconds. Come on, y'all.

Huge new result:

Anti-racism trainings probably lead people to accuse others of racism even when they're not racist.

That's exactly the result of a new study on DEI trainings, with a special focus on the impacts of the works of Ibram X. Kendi and Robin DiAngelo.

Let's dig in🧵

@jonfavs “There’s a lot of people we don’t want here that shouldn’t be here” is obvious, factual, and just about unanimous in one form another. Insinuating that this is a problem for democrats is admitting that there is a problem with democrats

We don't need RFK Jr. to 'Make America Healthy Again.' The federal government can't make the right health choices for you and your family. Only you can do that.

Between now and 2030, expect most global leaders - whether "left" or "right" - to introduce and implement insanely authoritarian policies. Doesn't matter what crisis appears (or "polycrisis"), efforts will soon be made to ram through the much promised "digital transformation"

@pmarca Covid had approximately 10x the lethality rate of Covid so I’d hope the reaction would be less than it was there

@JohnHCochrane This gets closer to the point than democrats are getting, but falls short of the real issue - their governing philosophy of interventionism and paternalism doesn’t work

[John Cochrane @JohnHCochrane]

All the "what should Democrats do?" miss the obvious. Govern. Competently. When the blue states and blue cities are booming, safe, great schools, business flocking, call America and say "we're ready to run the country now."

@BriannaWu How do you factor all the liars about Hinters laptop into this?

[PJ Garblegunk @garblegunk]

Is there anyone that try’s to be truthful and thoughtful or not

[PJ Garblegunk @garblegunk]

@JoshEakle This is obviously inaccurate.

Maybe Bluesky is better but this is straight nonsense

[PJ Garblegunk @garblegunk]

@brianeskow The actual big questions are

What is the nature of God?

What are the aliens doing?

How to best structure a society to empower markets?

[PJ Garblegunk @garblegunk]

@brianeskow Easy

Yes yes free markets

Just saw a car fax commercial where the car Fox had an aggressive camel toe

@pmarca Great take, so long as the ambition is commensurate with action instead of entitlement

@SenWarren I thought it was because my pet iguana had a rare parasite

@TOEwithCurt Where the fuck are my keys

[PJ Garblegunk @garblegunk]

Been tossing around the idea of a one time wealth tax specifically to recapture the the transfer of wealth driven by money printing and inflation. Offends my libertarian sensibilities and I don’t think a recurring wealth tax is good, but fiat currency inflation also offends my sensibilities
