Crazy stuff in the PA-03 race, all seen as “normal”: fundraising *IN NYC* at an event by the “Pennsylvania Society,” Sharif Street 100% sure of party backing, people hesitating due to fear of backlash from him, and barely any talk about policy or the district.

One question will be whether Street ties up most or all of the Democratic establishment support. Several lawmakers have backed him already while others said they're still deciding whom to back.

I don’t require future Democrats to seek revenge. They should pursue justice, which entails prosecuting corruption, war crimes, and ICE. That’s not revenge.
This would be a huge improvement compared to Biden/Obama; because when you don’t prosecute, it only comes back worse.

Umpteenth reason Obama really wasn’t that great a president, especially given contemporary hindsight.
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

First debate in PA-03 Congressional Dem primary has some surprises: three candidates try to take on the pragmatic/centrist Dem label (with Street the establishment favorite), with only one (Rabb) proudly staking out progressive positions. I expected more, frankly.

People spend much too much time trying to calculate the legal reasoning or strategy of SCOTUS, whereas I think it's pretty simple. Roberts et al are members of conservative elite culture, and they tend to go where that follows. Ten, maybe even five years ago, they were against this. Now they're not.
Here is the question presented. It's a relatively clean vehicle for the Supreme Court to finally decide whether it is lawful for the president to deny birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...

Sharif Street’s endorsements from party leaders, establishment Dems, and unions are piling up in the PA-03 Dem primary. Ward leaders are likely to follow. But his campaign has very few specific policy positions that appeal to the progressive base. Will “inevitability” win it for him?
