This seems really obvious, everything to the contrary is an attempt at factional axe grinding

This is fair — anti-semitism was trending back up as a reactionary harbinger of the backlash to the woke era. These things come in cycles and social media has fueled it. BUT it was supercharged by our political system’s reaction to Oct 7 and Gaza events, where we rake stepped into every trope

Starting to wonder if there’s some Senate-like shenanigans going on here, wherein they knew they had to throw out the opinion but some of the swing votes were given a dispensation to dissent in order to appease Leonard Leo and their sponsors.

I do not understand how one candidate (Chevalier) can win one primary election and it just redefines what the future of the Democratic Party is for everyone. The discourse around all of this has been insane. We are not back in 2019 because of one election.

The waste of taxpayer money involved in this debacle is something I would make an issue of if I was David Jolly. You can make an exclusively anti-corruption argument to the center while also motivating the base. Go after it as a boondoggle

TBH I feel like Mamdani has bent over backwards to demonstrate that he's not remotely antisemitic, and guys like Frum who will call him an antisemite anyway on the basis of his religion and anti-Zionism are doing the work of bona fide antisemites

I think all the results in the NY primaries are hopeful signs that voters are demanding a party that’s more responsive to their needs and aspirations. That’s going to look different in different places. It’s not always going to look like NY. But it’s good for democracy regardless.

She’s incredibly out of step with the moment. This entire interview (on Fox News!) was an abject disaster for her. She had a good few weeks where she was able to avoid any scrutiny and let the race be a referendum on Platner. That’s completely unsustainable and we are seeing why.

Hate the new World Cup tiebreaker format. In Group D —due to the head to head tie breaker — one matchday 3 match will be meaningless and the other sets up for a gentleman’s handshake tie. It’s bad for the spirit of the competition

Why are seemingly all of Susan Collins's campaign testimonials from professional Republicans (in this case a former GOP state representative) who don't identify themselves as such? It's sketchy but it also feels desperate. And sort of pathetic. #MEpolitics

If you don’t like Graham, that’s fine — but the takes that he’s winning because voters are dumb and like dumb guys are just elitist nonsense. Anyone can win the way he campaigns. Identify people’s material crisis’, name the people who are at fault for them, and show them you’ll fight for them.

The funny thing about this Foote quote is that it is nearly impossible to argue that confederate soldiers were ambivalent about the end of slavery. They were racked with fears of violent racial reprisals — preventing this was a major reason why the black codes got worse over time.
