I'm not the audience for the Smith hearing, but the main political issue here is that Republicans want the world to know that Smith subpoenaed congressional phone records as he investigated Jan. 6 etc, and nobody outside the Senate can explain to you why that's bad.

The "America Experiment" has not failed (per se). As an experiment it has identified area for further development. In particular, when the physical presence of speech in a town square is replaced by newspapers, radio, TV, and the virtual (non-) presence of the Internet,

Just once in my life I would like to see a Democrat being interviewed by right wing media like Fox News or right wing media like every single other outlet treat their questions with the contempt they deserve. I know it's not going to fix everything or maybe even anything but how much coverage and how much groundswell of excitement from the base do you think it would inspire if when asked about "boys in girls sports" or some other stupid fucking culture war distraction one of them finally said "What the fuck are you talking about man? You sound like a dumb asshole right now."

What's the worst that's going to happen the New York Times is gonna work overtime to make sure you don't get elected? They were already doing that buddy.

You simply say "Are you stupid? Do you think I am stupid? And do you think all of the people watching at home are stupid? Everyone sees through what you are doing. Using one group as a scapegoat for the very real problems everyone has – all caused by Republicans by the way – unlike this fake one you have made up. Dumb asshole."

Just go on the attack for once instead of sitting there trying to please your enemy who is in the process of trying to humiliate you.

And if you want to say something else true that almost no Democrat ever says for some reason you can top it off with a “Every single Republican in our lifetime has sought to make our lives worse in every way possible. I’d like to try to stop that.”

Implementing a universal, single-payer healthcare system would save the U.S. more than $1 trillion and some 114,000 lives every year, according to a recent Yale University preprint study

Scientists calculated how much money and lives 'Medicare for All' might save—it's a lot

The study has been touted by Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders as proof of the benefits of a universal, single-payer healthcare system, but the research hasn't been peer-reviewed

Incredible- Trump's $2 billion taxpayer-subsidized slush fund comes with a legal disclaimer that basically says "we are not responsible for any crimes committed with this money"

Once the funds are deposited into the Designated Account, the United States has no liability
whatsoever for the protection or safeguarding of those funds, regardless of bank failure,
fraudulent transfers, or any other fraud or misuse of the funds.

We don't have to actually get rid of the "electoral college"; (constitutional amendments take a long time) It would suffice to have electors selected in proportion to the vote in each state (vs "winner take all") Or the "National Popular Vote" compact. Either of which are simple *state* laws.

here’s what would be better than this performative bullshit: if he looked out into the crowd and saw … no crowd. because reporters who actually care about the first amendment kept they asses at home. (via @status.news, a newsletter well worth paying for)

from Status: On a Saturday evening in late April, the ballroom of the Washington Hilton will feature the annual tradition of reporters dressing up in tuxedos and gowns to mingle, network, and celebrate their profession. But this year, when Donald Trump looks out into the crowd, he might spot some of those attending the White House
Correspondents' Association's gala sporting unusual accessories: pocket squares and pins with the words of the First Amendment, in a subversive gesture supporting press freedom, reflecting the news media's consciousness of the perilous moment it's in, and why.

The documents required are expensive. If voter ID is so extraordinarily necessary, the federal government could spend money to create a free universal proof-of-citizenship card. Why hasn't it? Perhaps because it's really NOT that necessary? Or because that would help poor people vote?

When I was young, we learned that inflation was from "too much money chasing too few goods". That is probably too simple and there are other ways to characterize inflation. But however you identify it, the antidote is to remove some money from the system. And there are two primary ways to do that:
