Pretty good take haver. Democracy enjoyer. Hater of authoritarianism & populism. Globalist. Reader of history.

Harris & Mamdani appreciation account. Will tolerate shade @ Schumer.

She/her.
Yes. But after the last year that’s still ridiculous high.

Pathetic. Utterly pathetic

GOP Members of Congress correctly noting that the White House treats them like garbage, Speaker Mike Johnson lets it happen because he wants to, the legislature has been usurped, so… they’ll quit, rather than vote for a new Speaker or do oversight of the executive branch.

I would accept camps in exchange for her pikachu face when she ends up there with us.

Levels of tryhardism never before seen in history.

This conversion between Ezra and Fareed is exceptional.

Gets to the heart of this moment we are in, why democrats and the center left failed, and how to move ahead.

Notably - Fareed echoes what @radiofreetom.bsky.social says. Bored affluence leads to fascism much more than economic struggles.
With Fareed Zakaria, host of “Fareed Zakaria GPS” on CNN and the author of the book “Age of Revolutions: Progress and Backlash From 1600 to the Present.”

Discussing the “revolution” we may be living through, the forces driving it, and how the Democratic Party can adapt.

Exit polls on VA had him getting close to 50% of Latino men although I’m skeptical.

Five discharge petitions have succeeded since Johnson became speaker.

That’s more than the prior three decades, says Politico: www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

From what I’ve see the low trust folks really really oppose this. Go for it. Lose the rest of your base I guess.

It is. But it’s also buffoonery. It’s going to go nowhere like the DOJ prosecutions and just end up looking like a failure on the admit.

Unserious people with serious consequences. But on this case they’re unraveling.

Just seems like a crash out for the party.

Any prominent MAGA / ET Hitler particle kids turn out to be foreign agents?

I’d love for us to have a running list and laugh / feel vindicated.

One fascinating and yet expected thing is that none of the big foreign accounts pretending to be American are left of center, or even anti-Trump. Not a single one. Says something about the economics and geopolitics of political grifting
If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

My computer science professor in college told us - if you want to learn to code, go to a technical school. My job is to teach you how to problem solve and how to think.

I was in a liberal arts college. Even the stem teachers got it.

These Gen Z idiots really thought deporting the undocumented immigrants who live in broken down townhomes in Putnam County was going to bring down the rent in Bushwick.

Low key though having friendly conversations with someone you viscerally hate and they know you hate them is a real New Yorker skill.

I hate my MAGA in laws. They hate my “socialist” tendencies. We bond over how much we hate Cuomo.

Former Democratic Senator Doug Jones is planning to enter the Alabama governor’s race against current Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville, otherwise known as the stupidest man in politics.

Paul Krugman warned that Obama’s recovery was too small and would take too long to kick in and would heat up just in time for the next president (likely a Republican) to take credit. And that’s exactly what happened.

You can blame Larry Summers.

I think it’s simultaneously true but also way overblown. They will be more right leaning than millennials were - for a whole host or reasons - and there are a terrifying number of Hitler particles among them. But nowhere near as large as portrayed.
