DC dad and education policy guy. Former @dcbeer editor. Tweets are going to be some awful pie chart of craft beer, dynasty baseball, Everton, politics, policy, dadding, cooking, and snark. Definitely snark.

That $366 million Elon is spending to try and convince voters that Congress should stay Republican? It's more money than McCain's 2008 campaign spent. But it's also, relative to Musk's net worth, the same as a household at the median income spending $32.

The 2026 question: Which is more powerful, money or people?
Elon Musk has spent $366 million this election cycle. Philip Bump examines what that kind of money can buy in American politics.

Gotta admit, when I was wondering how she'd be worse than Karoline Leavitt, I meant the sort of bullshit she'd be willing to spout with a straight face. I didn't consider that she would be unpolished to the point of needing someone to go at her with a bottle of Wright's and a soft cloth.

just a casual reminder that inciting violence against his political opponents and others he dislikes has been a core feature of Donald Trump's approach for more than a decade. It is a defining characteristic of Trump and his movement, but rarely centered as such by corporate media.

Trump brought more destruction to DC this weekend, ordering the cutting of 400 mature trees before courts could stop it. Same tactic as when he knocked down the East Wing. Riverbend Landscapes & Tree Service of VA did the cutting. They knew it was wrong. And you can let them know how you feel. 1/

"We've worked hard to turn this city around" is all you need to know about the guy who ordered the destruction of 500+ East Potomac trees this weekend.

The farm-grown corn is imperceivable in the Flanders Red style beer, “Where Poppies Grow.” But the work and effort that goes into the beer to make it so complex is completely evident in the first sip.

YOU hate Nader for throwing the 2000 election. I hate Nader for ushering in the era of Consumer as a primary political identity, touting the tort system as an alternative to normal democratic deliberation, and making things generally work worse in the USA.

I found Dan Simmons’ Hyperion supremely disappointing relative to the hype, I really didn’t get it. But this DDH West Coast DIPA from Sapwood Cellars that presumably gets its name from the novel’s Time Tombs is very excellent. I would recommend the beer not the book.

The Lime scooter thing is out of control in DC. Just saw three teens on one scooter weaving in and out of traffic at Georgia and New Hampshire, crossing right in front of cars who had the green light, etc. everyone involved very fortunate there wasn’t an accident.

Not sure what it means but it’s interesting how “person who campaigns as a liberal and then immediately becomes a conservative” is a regular feature of our politics but never seems to happen in the opposite direction (except for ever so slightly on the supreme court?)
