Let’s be clear about what this is: a coordinated political hit meant to drive me out of this race. I’m proud of who I am. I won’t be shamed into silence – and I won’t allow my private life to be distorted and weaponized against me.

The role Muslim Americans have been & are playing in reviving the overseers of the genocide of Palestinians is something to marvel at.
El Sayed didn't hesitate to endorse Harris when she was anointed the Democratic presidential candidate, he identifies as a capitalist and his Oct 7 statements have been abysmal - so of course Harris would endorse him.

For the life of me, I can't understand why Democrats have not pledged to tear down all Trumpian building projects the moment they regain power. Starting with the arch, then the ballroom and anything else. Say it loud and proud: in 2029 anything Trump builds is coming down.

Can someone explain why opposing the construction of data centers has become standard left-of-center politics? Is it more "data centers are bad because AI is bad" or more "data centers are bad because they're energy-intensive and raise prices for everyone?"

It's not just prosecutions. - Blow up the monuments to Trump's vanity. Restore the White House and the Kennedy Center. - There should be a total de-MAGAfication of the country like in postwar Germany. If you worked for Trump in any way you should never work again in any official capacity.

Yes. What Kirk did is a simulacrum of discussion & debate, constructed without any of the good faith that might give it meaning or impact. It was a show -- humiliating liberals &, by invoking liberal values like "civil discourse" -- fooling them into playing along with it.

Important principles to keep in mind at this time: 1. Charlie Kirk was a very malignant force in American life. A disgusting influence. 2. He didn't deserve to die, regardless of whatever he's said or done. 3. If you can't feel sympathy for the man, feel sympathy for his family. And the country.

Why is it so hard for the New York Times to say something Trump said is racist? Not "carrying uncomfortable racial overtones." Racist. What's with the weasel words?

Apparently, it’s totally cool to tell Jews what we really think and decide that you know more than your Jewish friends on Israel, Palestine, and Zionism because you’ve “listened to people online”. I will say this as many times as I need to, but other people don’t get to redefine Zionism for Jews. 1/

This is the Trump MO, which people fall for every time: make some provocative announcement about something that everyone's heard of, like Alcatraz or the Gulf of Mexico. Get people yapping about it for days as part of the endless culture war so they're not talking about Trump tanking the economy.

Is it just me, or do others have a perverse admiration for the sheer boldness, the stubborn bloody-mindedness of Donald Trump. Don't get me wrong - he's still world-historical awful. He's caused more damage to this country than just about anything in our history outside the Civil War.

Trump is deporting people with legal status and no criminal convictions to foreign hellhole’s without due process. His idiot team is sharing classified attack plans on insecure channels and accidentally including a reporter. He’s pushing us toward a recession. He’s threatening to invade allies.

As someone who spent part of my childhood in Canada and retains much affection for it, this is painful to see. I've seen it recently in my professional life - Canadian clients are now wary about hiring Americans. And for what? What have we gained from this? talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/a-hos...

I'm really interested in what the Trump supporters in my feed - there are a few - think about what's happening now. 1. Do you think the brewing trade war with Canada and Mexico is a good idea? Do you expect not to be affected by it? 2. Do you approve of the power Elon Musk has been given?

Even when Republicans in good MAGA standing can bring themselves to scold Trump, their criticism is limited to discrete acts. Trump can say or do something bad, but he cannot be something bad. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I have as much contempt for Elon as the next guy, but seeing this from this angle, I don't think he meant to do the full Sieg Heil. It looks more like a "from my heart to all of you" gesture. Maybe I'm being naive - but I do think he's that oblivious to what it would look like.

Will be astounded if she ultimately votes no. To be more precise, I'll be astounded if she's the deciding vote to approve or sink the nomination. If others have already sunk it and her vote doesn't matter, then she might vote no. If he already has the votes to be confirmed, then she'll vote yes.

Trying to find any research on how many unnecessary deaths can be attributed to denial of health care coverage. I've seen lots of papers on excess deaths from being uninsured. But none for people who were insured but were denied coverage for a life-extending treatment.

Democrats spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars on warning voters about Trump as a threat to democracy. Turns out not enough people care about that. Makes you think it was the wrong strategy. Should have spent all that money making the case that Trump is incompetent instead.

Maybe a better description for this is that Dems have a "know-it-all" problem. It seems pretty clear that a lot of the country is suspicious of politicians who speak in terms of data, studies and programs. To some, it comes across as "I know better than you do."

I think you should address what I think is his main argument: innovation and building things is great, but it's very likely to be insufficient to hold down global warming to a tolerable level. If you disagree with that, then own that position.
