Bezos allegedly wanted the editorial side of the paper to focus on - what was it? - free markets and individual liberties or somesuch and I guess by "individual liberties" he meant "men's freedom to harass women and denigrate their intellect."

Yes its important to stay informed, but its just as important to take breaks.

I guess this means Raising The Salience Of Immigration (tremble...quake...shudder) can sometimes work for Democrats?
This is pretty amazing. This guy just won a solid victory in Bucks County, PA, one of the most important swing counties in the country, by *explicitly and deliberately* making his race *all about* nationalizing ICE raids. Confirms the point about this now being a winning issue for Dems.

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

Trump is taking money we use to house people, money we use to *prevent* homelessness, and requiring it be spent instead on policing homelessness.
Yelling at people for being homeless, unsurprisingly, is less effective than housing people. He doesn't give a shit. The cruelty is the point.

Ed Markey has had a fantastic legacy, but that doesn't mean you should be like RBG, Biden, Ted Kennedy, or Diane Fienstein and potentially cost MA a vote in the senate at critical time.

@moulton.house.gov blamed the 2024 election loss on transgender politics. I knew then he was so wrong and the voters on Tue proved me right.
I was on the ground in Pennsylvania in 2024. I KNEW the election was lost because of the price of eggs. This past Tue, the voters proved me right.
