We could put a person on the moon before the Reagan Revolution. Now, such things seem so impossible they are improbable.

A constitutional order that cannot remove a chief executive at this point is not worth saving. We need massive, wholesale, fundamental institutional reform.

YES. Ex: many El Nino specialists have been fired from NOAA. NOAA issues forecasts as usual, but without the decades of experience that made the models *excellent* AND that knowledge will never be passed to the next hires, even if positions are filled in the future- it's like hitting a reset button

"Trump has moved the ethical line" drives me crazy. It pretends there are no other actors with agency in 🇺🇸 politics or the media. You could have treated this as a nonstop five-alarm scandal & crisis for democracy. You didn't do that. You did for EMAIL & BIDEN OLD. Other choices were right there.

An Outrage in 2019. No Problem in 2026. Trump Has Moved the Ethical Line.
The president’s decision to hold an international summit at his own private golf club, an idea rejected in his first term, illustrates how much he has shattered norms.

gorgeous framing of the idea that the increase in divorces in the 70s and later was not obviously a huge net good for society as well like no no you're right, before the 70s marriages were perfect, totally equal, the lower rate of divorce was definitely not due to massive structural disincentives-

I was wrong. They went with "buffoons."
defending Trump, the White House said news outlets had misunderstood and misrepresented the president's comments in what amounted to a "media freakout." A White House media post singled out an L.A. Times post that said
Trump suggested "letting Iran take out" L.A. and San Diego. "No, he didn't, you buffoons," said the White House. "He was saying the U.S. is fighting to STOP Iran from having the ability to take out LA and San Diego with
a nuclear weapon - which they would if they had the chance."

Sadly, jaywalking use to not be illegal, intersections had the barn dance and it all worked, now you have to have your head on a swivel if you’re walking because of scooters, bikes and cars just being so privileged.

It is a constant, white people in the suburbs and south Denver are scared of the unhoused. There have been unhoused in city my entire life and they are part of the quilt of life. The annoying thing is the current mayor gave up because Anschutz wanted him to.

The deplorables start cheering when Trump says let 'em take out a city, because hatred of cities is a core MAGA belief. Trump knows he's got an applause line and out throws the names of cities in California. They go nuts.

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspaper. Congress can, in fact, say the court got the Constitution wrong, on such questions as: - Should there only be 9 Wizards in Robes, or 47, or 100, or 250? - Should the Wizards have a building? Clerks? Docket control? - Should they ride the circuit? On horses?
