Not one of the top 20 authors in the fiction and nonfiction categories is a bedbug. Not one single bedbug is on the list. We don't even count them anymore in general.

I think carceral assumptions about power cause the radicalism of Section 2 of the 15th Amendment to be overlooked. This is the part that gives Congress the power to pass laws to protect voting rights and stop racial discrimination at the polls. Carceral thinking gets hung up on "enforcement"...

Bernie Sanders doing an event with Steve Bannon is the result of a years-long courtship effort of the class reductionist left by the far right.

The disciplinary drive of an organization that views accountability principally in relation to its own members is quite scary and reactionary. There’s a reason it’s especially women candidates who get scrutinized for traces of disloyalty, while others like Bernie get benefit of the doubt.

If your theory is that progressive politics works in NYC but runs aground when it encounters ordinary Midwestern Democratic voters, then 39.4 to 39.8 in Wisconsin is terrible evidence for your theory.

Unbelievable spin. I promise you, centrist Dem strategists are not seriously thinking “the democratic socialist wave cannot reach beyond urban centers” when it is virtually tying with their picks in WI and MI.

This from @daveweigel.bsky.social is right on about the significance of an El-Sayed win for AOC 2028. I hadn’t appreciated how important it is for the presidential shadow primary.

David Weigel
@daveweigel • 11h

Most important midterm race for setting up the 2028 primary is clearly Michigan.
If El-Sayed wins nom and general, progressives proved they can win a big swing state; El-Sayed instantly becomes one of the most prominent Dem senators, and advocate for AOC '28.

If El-Sayed wins nom and loses to Rogers, the center-left can (and will) blame the left for losing a MI Senate seat that's been blue since the 90s; El-Sayed becomes a cautionary tale of voting for a charismatic left-winger and handing the W to Republicans.

If Stevens wins nom and general, not much changes, but the left doesn't have a swing state story to tell.

If Stevens wins nom and loses to Rogers, the left can say: See? See? You idiots pulled out the stops for your candidate and she blew it.
Hand over the keys.
