Did we cancel D-Day because of a little rough weather? No. Play the damn game.

Readers added context

D-Day was delayed by a day because of the weather

The SEIU is probably the most firmly progressive major union out there, but it's also absolutely loathed by a significant chunk of class first socialists because it doesn't tickle their fetish for an imaginary 1950s all white union of men punching in nine to five at the sprocket factory.

Polling shows this is one of the least popular things he's proposed. It's desperate; voters know it's desperate; no one believes him, and most people are aware that it would be inflationary.

Exactly. The left is not resource poor. It just doesn’t invest in higher ed. It doesn’t invest using public funds. It doesn’t invest using private funds. It just doesn’t seem to care.

Everyone would be screaming to the heavens about Genocide Harris because she only cut offensive aid to Israel and didn't nuke Tel Aviv, and meanwhile hundreds of thousands of people around the world would be alive thanks to foreign aid not being cut.

And as the First Amendment to the Constitution extols, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." This is not to denigrate US military chaplains, but they already have the Armed Forces Chaplains Board which advises the secretary.

Of course when taken together with Hegseth's decision to remove a range of denominations from those officially recognized by the military, to fire the previous U.S. Army Chief of Chaplains with no stated reason (he was Black), the program here - a white Christian nationalism - becomes obvious.

When job growth was 5-10x this per month under Joe Biden, we were having a nonstop National Conversation™️ about the imminent recession & being told that only the unemployed cared about jobs, but everyone cared about inflation.

I used to think (like 10 years ago) that there was some line they’d cross where the political press would start talking about their racism as a matter of fact, not opinion. But there was no line. I still can’t believe it.

The way this works in the US is the left defers entirely to the epistemic authority of Palestinians, regardless of how intolerant or illiberal their views, while granting epistemic authority to Jews only insofar as they can be called upon to explain why the objections of other Jews can be dismissed

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

The Biden dementia theory has been conclusively disproven, as has the theory that he didn’t use leverage to force Israel to accept a ceasefire (which they did multiple times). No one will ever admit they got these things wrong.

The like physical techniques of rhetoric were part of the liberal education for centuries and I think it would probably be good for Dems to have some sort of little seminar or something for electeds, it creates a intuitively compelling visual and affective contrast with weirdo creeps

So: People said Biden could make a phone call to Bibi to cut off military aid, and instantly end the war in Gaza. It turns out he *did* a phone call, that Bibi interpreted as cutting off military aid, and Bibi actually doubled down. And now the argument is that doesn't count, for... reasons?

This will unironically boost transphobia on the far left because, once they can no longer use the threat of transphobia to wrestle away trans people from the Democrats, trans people will officially become useless to them. You'll start seeing the DSA discuss trans voters like they do black voters.

It's framed as upbeat, life affirming, but echoes of "suffering builds character" here. It's really something how often this happens: the anti-AI position recapitulating tired ole' conservative tropes. Old wine in new wineskins.

It is actually very funny that Trump's two VPs were a Catholic who converted to Evangelical Protestantism because that was the trendy thing for racists at the time, and a Protestant who converted to Catholicism because that's the trendy thing for racists now.
