This is just a naked attempt to break class solidarity. As a unionized professor, I'm not a more valuable human than someone making food for me, who are deeply UNDER unionized, btw. And that's actually part of what my students (I hope) learn in my sociology courses.

Hearings on the challenge to the fake Green candidate in PA-07 (Lehigh Valley) were yesterday, and if nothing else it was manifest that this was a GOP-backed operation from the start. The Green Party itself is challenging him, arguing that the candidate is stealing their name and deceiving voters.

this doesn't apply to the quoted piece, but most people who say "teach the bible" mean "give my children sectarian religious instruction" not "teach my children the literary and rhetorical importance of the biblical text"

i both think that students in the US should get literary instruction in the Bible (basically the equivalent of an intro religious studies course) and that doing so would be so controversial that it isn't worth the effort

The fundraising texts you delete are working on someone. It’s infuriating and heartbreaking. An 85yo in Ohio gave more than double the value of his home. A 91yo in an Indianapolis senior facility gave 25K times. The DCCC/DSCC don’t just tolerate the spammers who exploit seniors. They take part.

I personally need to be more skeptical of internal candidate/PAC polling. When I've passed on some, I always see it with a competitor, which isn't fun. But there was some polling that made it look like Stevens was down 15+ points that really bent coverage.

Because state law is silent on how the party is supposed to replace Platner it opens up a wide range of possibilities. All of them have their drawbacks but I'm a big believer in more democracy being better.

fundamentally, Alito and Thomas believe that the 14th Amendment established a hierarchy of citizenship or allowed the elected branches to do so. but that is totally ass backwards! it was explicitly written to *preclude* any hierarchy of citizenship. it is right there in the text!

actually a third thing: alito quite literally sounds like the unreconstructed opponents of the 14th amendment, right down to the notion that his citizenship is degraded by the fact that it is equal with that of someone from a lower station than him.

And once every double mega blue harvest moon there's a Democrat we kind of like. But this is a Republican forum!

The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.
