I love to have an economy based entirely on appreciating financial instruments and real estate (but I repeat myself) but which refuses to tax that because its owners are politically powerful! Everything will be paid for by taxing income instead!
The political economic situation does kinda suck if you are a renter not in one of about three industries that pay well. And we're cutting property taxes and taxes on tips/overtime so if you're salaried you're responsible for even more of the tax base

Yeah tbh I don’t really understand “right now the party feels immoveable” when it has visibly moved with each recent general election, sometimes by quite a lot

I think the filibuster (particularly Freedom to Vote Act/John Lewis VRA and DC/PR statehood) and Making Consequences™ are the two big corrections the next admin is going to alter

one thing that democrats are really quite good at is correcting and "fixing" the mistakes of their previous bite at the apple. It goes as far back as Clinton correcting for the legislative failures of Carter!
I find the 'the Democrats won't do anything' doomer line annoying, because the Democrats will be who you make them - look how much the GOP changed over the past decade!
Right now the party feels immovable but the moment it has a presidential nominee, it will be whatever that person is.

Every time I read an FDR speech it breaks my heart to see someone who assumes his audience is actually capable of understanding complex ideas and interested in learning more.
We have got to make politics intellectual again. It is the only way that societies thrive is when politicians have the capability to actually think and reflect deeply:
![I confess that I always had difficulty with interpreting the Biblical precept to love our neighbours “as ourselves” until I read some of the words of C.S. Lewis. He pointed out that we don't exactly love ourselves when we fall below the standards and beliefs we have accepted. Indeed we might even hate ourselves for some unworthy deed.
None of this, of course, tells us exactly what kind of political and social institutions we should have. On this point, Christians will very often genuinely disagree, though it is a mark of Christian manners that they will do so with courtesy and mutual respect. [Applause] What is certain, however, is that any set of social and economic arrangements which is not founded on the acceptance of individual responsibility will do nothing but harm.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xbnsfdtxoothg654ujxe3p25/bafkreicrdgbtvm54qnmttwe6crhxwt4be5v3izjmqtnvlxmaljwg5wolai@jpeg)

The existence of Japan, Korea and Taiwan should disabuse us all of the notion that freedom and democracy have something to do with either Christianity or European racial characteristics.
It really seems to come out of national interest and industrialism.

🧵I often get mobbed when I say this, but it was a mistake for liberals & leftists to cede "western civilization" to the fascists. "The West" and "Western" are important political identities. Abandoning them is no smarter than refusing to offer a positive vision of American national identity.

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”
He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.
(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

That's actually extremely bad. Usually what happens when a presidential approval rating dips into the 30s and 20s is less declining party approval* than pushing marginal party IDers to ID instead as independents.
*W notably did have declining GOP approval tho as a result of immigration reform

In another era, the political media would be shoveling dirt onto Trump's political grave as a hopeless lame duck and shifting their focus to the 2028 Presidential race. But in this era they'll keep rooting for the Reichstag Fire or other event to keep pretending he's popular
New Gallup poll shows Trump's approval hit a new low for his second term:
-36% approve
-60% disapprove
His approval among Republicans went from 91% in January to 84% in November

I can't help but think most of the media's response to trump is a combination of "we like him and want his policies" and also a whole heap of the sunk-cost fallacy mixed with "I'm rich so I obviously know what's happening."

Every longtime political organizer (the people who make change happen, not electeds or pundits) will tell you this is true.
'Democrat' is not a species with DNA: it is an empty box into which any combination of politics may be poured, same as 'Republican.' Try to pour in something good and useful.
Perhaps this jumps out at me more clearly because I do not identify as a Democrat myself.

In 1975 the Republican Party was neither controlled by holy rollers not institutionally opposed to the ERA or Roe v Wade.
It can be done. But you gotta DO it.

Dems don't have to announce it, but they should absolutely internally commit to signing on to ICC and handing over most of the admin/cabinet to The Hague at the first opportunity. It's going to be the only way to get justice ultimately.
If Trump proactively pardons Hegseth, the solution is to signal either to the ICC or the country of origin of the murdered men that we will honor extradition requests on this point.
And then, in something of an irony, Noem him out of the country before anyone can react.
