Liberalism = liberty under law, limited and accountable government, markets, tolerance, individualism, universalism, human equality, reason, and progress. 🇺🇲

Trump never shows interest in the strength of the United States itself, only in the strength of his power over it.

@cremieuxrecueil That the increase in diagnoses is due to an expanded definition does not mean that the expanded definition is wrong. Maybe the old definition was too narrow!

When we say 'Hasan simps for dictators' WE MEAN IT

This is how he refers to motherfucking ASSAD

The numbers here are insane:

In the L.A. Metro system, 97% of people who committed a violent crime evaded the fare. In D.C., 99.5% of those who committed a “Part 1” crime (homicide, rape, robbery, arson, or motor vehicle theft) had dodged the fare.

In New York, MTA CEO Janno Lieber says that “virtually all” crimes are committed by fare evaders.

Sure. Liz Cheney voted against Donald Trump and told others to do the same. Hasan Piker did not.

Great question. There is no appropriate income level to be a socialist.

The “trad data center” folks are my favorite characters of this current public policy debate.

Alfalfa uses like half the water from the Colorado River for like 0.1% of the economic benefit. To a first approximation it literally just wouldn't matter if we just stopped growing alfalfa forever.

It's only viable because farmers don't pay market rate for water.

In 2020 a mob toppled the Ulysses S. Grant bust in Golden Gate Park. In 2026, SF still can't summon the courage to put it back up.

He defeated the Confederacy, crushed the Klan, and enforced Reconstruction, and his bust sits in storage.

Some brutal figures from Treasury's latest monthly statement, for the fiscal year to date

—The U.S. deficit is at $1.8T, larger than the deficit for all of last year
—$1.2 *trillion* spent on interest on the debt
—Corporate tax receipts down 18%

And still two months left to go!

When Trump threatened to arrest Adam Schiff for being his political enemy, Hasan Piker said: “Oh my God, I hope they arrest him. Oh my God, I hope he goes to prison. Yeah, this is political. Sure. I don’t care. Lock him up. Lock him up.”

Roy Cooper, the Democrat with the highest polling lead in the country in a swing state (+13) is flooding TV and online with ads explicitly about prosecuting criminals and opposing defund police lunatics. This is what voters everywhere want. It's not complicated.

May I ask you a question, my friends -- my Republican friends, in particular? What kind of man inscribes his name on another man's memorial? Really, what manner of man?

[Greg Bluestein @bluestein]

Two Republican mayors from deep-red South Georgia are crossing party lines to endorse Democratic U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, saying his work for their communities outweighs partisan loyalty. 1/ #gapol #gasen

A pit bull ban is the moderate solution. The real question is what to do about the kind of people who own pit bulls.

[Hutch @hutchinson]

Moderate democrats putting up god tier numbers in swing states (and there are MANY) get basically no attention while every single media outlet puts out daily "Here Is Why Progressives Are Lighting The Way For Democrats" opinion pieces 🙃

Today, I’m introducing MediKids – guaranteed healthcare for every child no matter where they live or how much their parents make.

The concept is simple: Every kid deserves to be happy and healthy. Let's invest in our kids and build a stronger, healthier future.

OMGGGGG -- Clayton is reduced to sitting in silence instead of acknowledging Joe Biden won the 2020 election

OSSOFF: Who won the 2020 election?

CLAYTON: Uhm, you know, I'm not going to do this with you

OSSOFF: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee. Who won the 2020 election?

CLAYTON: I'm not gonna get into that with you

OSSOFF: You're not being honest or forthright

CLAYTON: ...

The faster the center-right and the center-left realize that they have more in common with each other than with the extremists on their own "sides," the better off we'll be.
