It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.
They are in charge.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns

The left consumes (flawed) news. The right consumes propaganda dressed up like news.
I keep thinking about this @gelliottmorris.com analysis and what it says about media asymmetry.
When Fox finds an issue like Benghazi or emails, it hammers it relentlessly for years.
Lib media reports on it and quickly moves on. Probably to “did Dems err by pushing this woke issue?”

As I've been shouting into the void for years, "Your messaging doesn't matter if it never gets heard." FOX is the problem, it's a firewall against reality.

This whole thread reminds me of when I worked in finance and reps would get mad at us for not letting them do things that would have gotten them fined or worse. Dude, we're helping you from keeping you from breaking the law, we're not the baddies here.
For folks living in the United States, participating in this sort of thing is a federal crime and will land you on the radar of the US Office of Foreign Assets Control
If you don't go broke defending yourself from the federal indictment first, you'll likely go broke while you're in federal prison

Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

Seattle thinks of itself as progressive, but it's controlled by Libertarians. The only policy progress is where those ideologies overlap. Took me forever to see it.
Seattle says it’s progressive—so why are renter protections for trans, immigrant, and BIPOC communities facing rollback?
The Roommate Ordinance and Right of First Refusal are lifelines, not extras. Losing them would push the most vulnerable even closer to the edge.

Guest Rant: Amid National Uncerntainty, Seattle Must Stand Firm on Renter Protections
In a nation facing escalating attacks on the rights of Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC), Seattle must uphold and fortify its role as a beacon of inclusivity and progressive values. Amid national rollbacks, including hundreds of anti-trans bills introduced nationwide and increasing threats against immigrant communities, we cannot allow our local protections to weaken or unravel. Recent renter protections in Seattle, particularly the Roommate Ordinance and Right of First Refusal, are...

I really hate when Rand Paul is right.
Rand Paul: "Tariffs are taxes & when you put tax on a business it's always passed through as a cost, so there will be higher prices. There's an economic fallacy that trade deficits mean anything. They're artificial accounting. The only trade that means anything is the individual who buys something"

Prosperity doctrine as health policy.
The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.

Are there actually people who are immunocompromised who don't know that it's not "immune compromised"? That seems like the sort of thing that you wouldn't get wrong if you actually were. Just pondering for no reason.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.
