This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

Hurray, no more David Walliams books. Every Xmas well meaning rellies would gift them to my book-loving kids and every year they'd go straight to the charity shop unread.

When I was just about of drinking age one of the less salubrious nightclubs in town was called "Quids Inn".
It cost a quid to get in.
They had actual turnstiles with a coin slot at the entrance.
Them were the days.

Earlier this year, Matt Yglesias and Hakeem Jeffries urged progressives to shut up about immigration and Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Yglesias said "bad groups" were pushing Dems left on immigration and would help Trump's numbers.

“Nothing we can do about this perverse court ruling” says the people who literally write the laws that tell the courts what to do.
Fucking state of this. Acting like they are completely powerless to do anything since the SC judgement.
Any new way of including people without amending the Equality Act will just be all-new segregation, now with added ‘dignity and respect’.

In spirit, content and intent, this was really no different to a Klan rally.
The exception being the wholesale absence of outrage in mainstream media.
This period of history will be an indictment on those standing silent, as much as the monster himself.

This is pretty much exactly like a European saying the United States should be abolished, so that the governments of individual states can better represent their people.
It’s a take, you’re entitled to it, but what’s it got to do with you, buddy?
