"Check to seniors = money for midterms" the way media outlets treat Trump bribing voters like it's a no big deal is mind-boggling.

This is one of my big things. AfD has no policies more radical than Republicans but Republicans never get accurately covered like AfD does.

Fashion of the Day - staying cool on Muni! The big hats, hair clips, loose clothes, and fans are of a style from the days before air conditioning, and well, are still useful today 🌡️🌞 Bay Area, vote Yes on RTM to keep transit running (and San Francisco voters, vote Yes on H to strengthen Muni!)

I mean, think of all the money a vulture like Trump could've made in the wake of the Great Depression if he'd had Citizens United to prevent the election of FDR.

I like how other Rs explain that it’s not a bribe, he’s talking about a legitimate policy proposal he hopes to enact with R support, and then Trump comes out and says It’s a bribe, I’m bribing you to vote for Republicans.

You can't get anyone in political media to say it plainly, but GOP strategy for several decades now has been built around the fact that its core goals/policies are *wildly unpopular*. Everything depends on a) polluting the information environment, b) cementing unfair structural advantages, & c) $$$.

I've been a reporter for a long time and this might be the strangest thing I've ever done. We've been reporting on privatization of schools this year and found that just about anyone can open a private school in most states. So we asked, Could reporters do it?

“In 2019, Paxton used $11,000 from his campaign fund to pay for lodging at a boutique Napa Valley hotel, vineyard tours and stops at two wineries, which he described in campaign finance reports as a fundraising expense. The trip cost taxpayers $8,100 in security costs, records show.”

US military spending isn't just DOD. As David Vine writes in @motherjones.com, it is spread across at least 15 other federal agencies, and the total likely exceeds the combined military budgets of every other nation on Earth. These figures are "likely to stun most Americans,” notes one expert.
motherjones.com
Think Trump’s $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget request is outrageous? This'll blow your mind.
We already spend at least that much on the US military each year, and maybe a lot more.

“What separates country from blues or hip hop or rock or disco isn’t that country is the true music of the working class. What separates country is that it’s the contemporary music genre most defined by, and most closely associated with, whiteness.” This is so good.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward
