"South Korea has already run the experiment. Its law requires the National Assembly to vote on presidential impeachment by anonymous ballot, and that rule has now removed two presidents." [@andycraig.bsky.social]

A Democratic Senate Should Adopt Secret Impeachment Ballots on a Priority Basis
Such a change, requiring no constitutional amendment, would free senators to vote their judgment instead of their fears

D. Fuck em and focus on holding together a coalition that can keep the populist-right out of power. Then use that power to dismantle the media and organizational structures that allowed the populist-right to grow

It is not discussed often enough how fucking dumb the American-right is. Here, a British right-wing aristocrat makes Carlson look like a clown. Remarkable timeline

Yeah I like Wolfers a lot, but he is wrong here. Getting lunch with someone who does not support constitutional democracy is a complete nonstarter.

Killed. NSF’s SBE was killed, in violation of law. The President does not have the power to choose to kill programs at a whim by defunding them. The imperial presidency was a mistake and we are in a separation of powers constitutional crisis.

When people ask me why I think the State of California should just take Los Angeles and the rich enclaves under protectorship and govern them directly for like 10 years, this is why. So fatally unserious in a serious moment.

Defenders Day is celebrated in Ukraine today. Ukraine exists and remains independent solely because there are men and women who defend her. They are concrete names, fates, people. Glory to all who defend Ukraine. Eternal memory to fallen Heroes and Heroines.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

The Israeli activists attacked in Janta were putting our values into action: Protecting their Palestinian neighbors and refusing to accept a future of occupation. We stand with them. www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

Honestly, if this is Sam’s take and it gets us closer to net zero, let’s take it. Strikes me like the housing bill trump let go into law w/o his signature. Take a small win where you can

Yeah basically my take. Guillotines for those who seriously threaten constitutional democracy. Otherwise, the death penalty is really not worth using, prison is fine.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.

The raw visceral hatred some men have for women, at least women who step out of line, is shocking. I know it sounds like some sorta "one of the good ones" ploy but I am genuinely taken aback when I see it because I think: I had a fairly normal socialisation as a man in the west, how did I miss this?

This man is a monster. He seeks out women survivors because he hates them. And he hates them because he hates himself. He has harassed me and other women survivors many times over the years. It must end. He should never have a job anywhere.

We absolutely need Bottoms to win this. Good for Georgia of course and puts a Democrat in charge of a swing state before the 2028 mess. But also, my number one is Ossoff and this opens the door for him to run if Bottoms wins.

Really solid stuff here from AES. But it is worth repeating a thousand times, Israel did not lead us into war. Donald Trump and the Republican Party are solely to blame for our clusterfuck in Iran. Other than that, good

I don’t care what consultants say about the politics. Impeach him every single fucking day. Impeach him a thousand times. This guy literally on the regular is in usurpation-mode. It cannot be said enough times, fuck him and destroy his administration. No moving on, no cooperation.

This some advanced tankie "thought". Russia has a UNSC seat & world's largest amounts of land, gas, oil and NUKES. Russia also has no agency over our own actions and so cannot be held accountable and therefore must be excused and appeased.

I guess I don’t understand. Doesn’t this line up with the yarn that trump supporters themselves spin? Like we’ve been left behind by the coastal elites, our rural areas are hallowed out, etc I’m of the opinion that they themselves suck, not their lives. But that’s besides the point

I’m not Canadian, so anything I say should be dismissed. But I had this take too while listening to Avi Lewis on Power and Politics a few weeks ago. He railed against defense spending (as any good annoying leftwinger should), and it sounded really pathetic in light of what Canada is dealing with.

My extremely unscientific take about fertility rate stuff that obviously politicians won’t say and scientists won’t test, but parenting seems like a really *really* shitty job. Like unfathomably difficult and never ending - destroying your lifestyle as it was and replacing it with a new one.
