The thing to know about Carville is that the Bulwark guy has it backwards. Carville isn't a source of opinions but a transmitter of them. He's a wind up doll for Democratic insiders who want their tepid, business-friendly politics to sound folksy and Cajun.

Before we get started, I just want to say thank you to all of my subscribers. This has been a dream as long as I can remember and I couldn’t have done it without you. It feels surreal to finally say it, but this is the final episode of Nutting In Every Country In The World. Welcome to Vatican City

I think what's fueling my pessimism is that deep down I don't think "it's not about ideology it's about who is willing to fight" is actually going to prove true.
Ideology defines what's objectionable about all this and why. Ideology is why these people weren't jailed to begin with.

I suspect if I'm a pessimist about ideological centrists in "team fight" is that I think they're focused on primaries which won't happen for years, and when push comes to shove won't back any radicals in "team fight" in one of those anyway.

the thing about "it's not about how left wing they are" is that 'how left wing they are' is a pretty reliable predictor of how angry they will be
because the further right a Democrat is, the fewer issues they'll have with what Trump is doing on substance

all my posts on the subject of primarying Democrats are basically just "you can say ideology doesnt matter but that won't make it true" over and over

hard to think of a better example of "you may not believe in class war, but billionaires know they're in one" than this
This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.
DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

I can't decide if Democrats who oppose abolishing ICE either can't imagine replacing what they think are its legitimate responsibilities, like enforcing customs duties, with a new agency that's basically just unarmed bureaucrats; or if they don't want to imagine it.

I'm convinced the people who don't like mayo simply put too much mayo on their food. The right amount of mayo is a perfect compliment. Slightly more than the right amount is the worst thing that will ever happen to you.

I think that's why USAID folded so quickly and without a fight - most of leadership assumed there was *some* rhyme or reason behind it all. Unsurprisingly, it was those of us who had been calling them out on Gaza who also immediately identified that no, it's actually as stupid as it seems.

A question that keeps raising itself these days, with MAGA chuds, Zionists, even reactionary centrists, is "how high on their own supply are they?" And the answer is increasingly: very.
unless she ends up losing by like 20 points, I think the final answer to "why didn't AIPAC spend against Analilia Mejia at all?" will be "because they're stupid"

generational L for AIPAC in the works here
LEAD CHANGE: Mejia, the Bernie/AOC-endorsed candidate, is now ahead of Malinowski.
And she’s been dominating Election Day ballots, so something would have to change for Malinowski to take it back.

This is Iraq War style propaganda: They make the face of a well-researched, (near) academic consensus, that isn't egregiously controversial among experts on the subject... and make the face of it a famous but uncredentialed young woman so they can pretend it's vacuous and naive.
