It's pretty easy to see why everyone is antisocial and/or in a state of extended psychosis

@xenocryptsite He doesn't record his interviews and, somewhat infamously, didn't allow Lady Bird Johnson to record when she asked to. Really makes you wonder how much distance there is between his notes and what was actually said in the thousands of interviews he's conducted

@mattyglesias Man who spent most of 2024 and 2025 insisting that support for Palestine was an electoral nonstarter declares that he has a firm grasp on which topics are "unwinnable"

@rcobooth The big reason Democrats are trying to water down Medicare for All isn't because they're trying to "avoid the big insurance shift at once", it's because they feel beholden to their donors. But you know that.

[The Son King @Takemeister]

@rcobooth Maybe it would be better to assess Medicare for All on its merits, instead of noting that pollsters can induce incoherence by asking loaded questions. But Vox has been using dodgy polls and questionable arguments to say that better things aren't possible for over a decade.

[The Son King @Takemeister]

@rcobooth I've followed your work for a long time, and it's really unpleasant to see you running interference for the private healthcare industry.

Pure Mamdani cope from Ezra Klein. Andrew Cuomo would not be expanding childcare, freezing rent, or cracking down on landlords. He'd be on his fourth trip to Israel.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

An overwhelming 92% of American have either delayed or totally abandoned medical care because of how expensive it is, according to a new survey.

[Emerson Green @waldenpod]

I think about this often

[The Son King @Takemeister]

@ryangrim @_carlbeijer Can you explain why it's a relevant detail?

[ΘΔ Rush Girl 🔆✡️🦬🤘 @kripchakmentum]

this is what stuck out at me. candidates mamdani endorsed that NYC-DSA didn’t still ran best in areas where the emerging base was most concentrated, but it was DSA endorsees who were able to squeeze the most juice out of the lemon. this is, simply put, The DSA Difference™️ babey

Notice how even in Israeli propaganda, Israel wipes out a city and kills countless civilians due to being mildly annoyed

@willmenaker This is what JFK would sound like if he had a degenerative disease in his brain instead of his back

In fact, this was how progressivity was understood in 16th century Venice, where the top 5% paid a lower tax rate than the bottom 10%. Despite this, it was deemed just, since, due to the incredible inequality of the society, the top 5% paid almost half of the total taxes. 2/

@ettingermentum This isn't correct at all - Obama didn't just make allusions to the leadership qualities of Reagan, he explicitly praised his vision for the country and accepted his framing of government "excesses"
