If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

Booooyyyyyyy. Watching the Ossoff/Collins thing tonight was a treat. If you are feeling bad about yourself, I highly recommend it unless you have a squeamish stomach about a man being figuratively beat to death with his own ripped off arm.

It’s really remarkable to me that 10 years into this people feel compelled to “clarify” Trump’s homicidal and often genocidal fantasies. It is deranged for the president to daydream about American cities in states he hates getting blown up. Full stop.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

Something remarkable is happening: James Talarico is running an expansively pro-immigrant campaign in Texas, a state Trump won by 14 points, speaking in Biblical terms about our duty to "the stranger." And it's resonating. That's seismic. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2160...

In Texas, Something Seismic Is Happening—and It’s All Trump’s Fault
Thanks to the economy and ICE, Trump has lost Texas Latinos. And James Talarico is developing a humane pro-immigrant message that’s resonating—even in this ultra-Trumpy state.

One of the definitions of the "surveillance state" that I operate under is when a government turns *all* methods of data and information collection---no matter what purpose it was supposed to serve, into surveillance intended for punishment.

The @teamtalaricohq.bsky.social folks should take a page from the @ossoff.bsky.social campaign -- if their candidate just makes the racist donor an issue, it will become a big issue. Musk, techbros and data centers are deeply unpopular. Lean into that.

Do you want to know how popular school vouchers are? They have never won on a ballot. Not once. In any state. Ever. The only way states are able pass a school voucher scheme is behind closed doors. Legislatively. The people would never approve their tax dollars going to private religious schools.

This is a blatantly unconstitutional threat. The executive branch has zero constitutional power to tell states how to run their elections - zero. Nor does DHS have the constitutional power to threaten state and local officials with jail time if they fail to abide by the executive branch’s demands.
