If the left is responsible for stopping 15 year olds from saying dumb shit while the right isn’t even responsible for what the literal President says, humanity is fucked. Sometimes people are wrong on the internet.

Peter Magyar is currently enacting a Liberal Currents fantasy where he amends the constitution to ban anyone associated with the old regime from ever holding office again and is somehow polling at 68% (he won with 53%) and I’m not saying that’s possible anywhere else but Dems should like, ask him

The US President's new proposal to tax international students has been approved by the White House for release this week. It's an unprecedented $100,000 tax on int'l grads who stay to work after graduation on Optional Practical Training (most grads do), a crucial bridge to remaining by any channel.

It's quite incredible how enormously lucky the US administration has been in terms of its economic inheritance - this is the kind of capex boom econ nerds have been yelling for since the GFC - and how determined they seem to be to squander it.

The reason JKR is suddenly saying more and more “moderate” seeming things is not because her views are “moderate”, you daft shits. It’s because she is registering that her extremely overtly transphobic points are now making her very unpopular.

The cyclospora outbreak has reached 17,180 cases across 48 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,700 measles cases (including 2 recent deaths) — a 35 year high. “Make America Healthy Again.”

I have a stupid hot take. The TACO trade is a thing and basically correct. What about a TACO TIBIO take? Trump Always Chickens Out + Trump Is Basically Increasingly Oblivious. That second fact cools off the effect of the first fact. Can you chicken out if you miss the fact that you’re losing?

THREAD. Contrary to what you are being told, 40 years of polling have established that shifting money away from police/prisons toward social services is one of the most popular public policies among *all* political demographics. But it's not just that, it goes way deeper.
