A year ago, I was concerned that we would be in a much worse place by now. We all face more challenges to come. But be hopeful. I am.

The triumph of the stupid.
CBS: "On too many stories, the press has missed the story. Because we've taken into account the perspective of advocates and not the average American. Or we put too much weight in the analysis of academics or elites, and not enough on you."

Good point. Still, most NYC mayors aren't very successful, so my expectations are low. I'd give him a solid chance to be the best in my lifetime, though, and who knows beyond that?
After Mamdani finishes speaking, CNN reporter says “can progressives govern??” and as I’ve told you 1000 times, if @wutrain.bsky.social was a Republican, she’d be talked about as a top presidential contender, but she’s a progressive Democrat so our national media pretends she doesn’t exist

CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.”
SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.”
CNN: “No, every day care is locked.”
SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔
He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.

Key to understanding MAGA is their deep envy of celebrity. Actual celebrities break their brains. If George Clooney made fun of my lawyering I would have the wisdom to go along with it or shut the hell up. If you're not a celebrity yourself you cannot win these battles, you're fighting an avatar.

Kamar Samuels to be superintendent of New York City public schools is outstanding news for those who still care about school integration and equality. In the face of the national attacks on civil rights and dismantling of enforcement at the U.S. DOE this pick by Mamdani sends a powerful message.

Trump ran a very identity politics campaign in 2024, JD Vance is giving speeches going “it’s ok to be white,” Kamala Harris avoided identity politics, even dismissed prompts to bait her into it with “same old tired playbook, next question.” And yet.

So...two quick overrides? Or two things to attach to the CR. Gotta be one or the other.
President Trump's first vetoes of his second term were two bills which were unanimously approved by the House and Senate.
A bill to deliver clean water to SE Colorado was sponsored by Rep. Lauren Boebert R-CO and a flood control bill for a tribe in Florida was sponsored by Rep. Carlos Gimenez R-FL.
