"Throw us a bone" like capping insulin payouts? Or investing $400 billion in renewable energy? Or expanding Medicaid to cover 20 million uninsured Americans? Those "bones" and "crumbs" save American lives and lives around the world, it's worth it.

One side of my family and hundreds of thousands of others have exactly zero knowledge of our lineage before the 1930s and I’ve always kind of accepted it as the default state of things, but it’s still just a little bit depressing to see how this is normalized and even amusing on the left

The line about campus police not "enforcing immigration law" is pretty annoying because ICE isn't enforcing the law either, marco rubio is just arbitrarily voiding people's visas and/or green cards and claiming that means they can throw you in jail without due process

Trump is kind of an aberration in TrumpWorld in that he actually really does have next to no core beliefs beyond enriching himself and punishing his enemies. He's surrounded himself with maniacs like his loser of a VP and Elon, who have cooked their brains online and have actual deranged goals.

The decision a lot of universities face now is whether to: -- have their federal funding pulled because they stood on principle to protect their students and the integrity of their research, or -- have their funding pulled anyway just because they exist, regardless of how cravenly they submit.

Yes this is how it works. Election are—among other things—ways of measuring the balance of political power in a political system. If you have 10% of the vote it tells you that 90% of the other voters would fight to kill you if it came to a civil conflict. Therefore, you cede power rather than die.
