To the extent this is true in the USA so is the opposite. Go to any growing metro area or college town in the South or West and you will find liberal culture in abundance: "in this house, we believe" signs, funky vegan restaurants, and I bet Ms. Rachel has plenty of fans in the South...

I saw Ohtani, that world soul, stare out over the mound. It is indeed a wonderful sensation to see such an individual, who, concentrated here at a single point, atop the mound, reaches out over the world and masters it.”

Just pulling up the picture of the coach of the French team and...oh dear

Marshal General Jean-de-Dieu Soult, one of Napoleon's Marshalls. He was the commander of French forces in Spain and was defeated by a combined Anglo-Spanish army commanded by the Duke of Wellington.

These comments are grotesque. Brad Lander named his son after a Bundist who was one of the leaders of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.

The analogy of Spanberger to Civil War/Reconstruction-era Radical Republicans is particularly accurate because, like the Radical Republicans, she seems not to understand very well how to build an economic system that allows for the durable reproduction of the political outcomes she clearly wants.

I wrote this seven years ago, reflecting on the overlap between AOC's inspiring victory and the Supreme Court's vicious assault on the rights of workers. Today, the juxtaposition is Zohran's win and the Court's assault on the very basis of citizenship. The imperative to win a just future remains.

Perhaps most critically, he was right that *political* reconstruction of the American South would never last without radical alterations to the South's *economic* system. He wanted to give the land of rich traitors to the freedmen. We should have listened.

Today is Thaddeus Stevens' Birthday. A Radical Republican Congressman during the Civil War, he was one of the most righteous, clear eyed political leaders this country has ever produced. In honor of his birthday, I'd like to make a thread of things he was right about.

Gotta bring back political cartoons like this back, but for the parasitic scourge of DOGE. A many headed monster, indeed.
