“Faced with a president who seemingly has no concern for constitutional limitations, the carefully crafted restrictions of the Constitution appear to be unenforceable; the courts are ineffective, and Congress doesn’t seem to care,” @rosenzweigp.bsky.social writes:
Trump the Grifter
The framers of the Constitution were trying to prevent exactly this sort of corruption.

fondly do i think on the days when marxists thought the productive forces were cool and good and to be developed, as opposed to this cheems-ass pastoralism masquerading as radical thinking
Frustrating when I talk about lost productivity from depression and somebody says it’s a metric capitalism uses to keep us down. What if there are things I am good at and it is frustrating not being able to do them or things I want to be good at I can’t practice or want to give back to society?

the point is obvious and yet far too many seem interested in ignoring it!
The wild thing about this is that the earliest sort of discrimination that liberalism rejected, before any of the others, was religious discrimination, and religious affiliation is very much not immutable and is unambiguously a matter of choice

Something I don't understand is, we literally have a 10-day-old interview with Biden demonstrating his brain works fine.

Which makes the abject gaslighting look absolutely craven and downright gross.

We will not be gaslit.

looking around and seeing some of the anti-woke centrist types are recalibrating away from panicking about wokeness and actually criticizing the right

my diagnosis: these poor souls are suffering from Wrong Dinner Party Syndrome

we may see more cases popping up in the near future. be vigilant!

“Inclusionary zoning” is one of those policies that sounds great at first but then when you look at the actual impact it ends up just being a massive tax on new apartments that exempts single family homes, accomplishing the exact opposite of the intended effect

I'm listening to this interview right now and while I generally like Seder the running theme here is an angry rejection of dialectical reasoning and the idea that policy decisions can have tradeoffs.
This discussion between Sam Seder and Ezra Klein is a succinct distillation of the intra-left conversation about housing affordability.

Reflecting on yesterday's hearing, I'm sort of at a loss. The objections to SB 79 and SB 677 from Wahab and others ranged from factually incorrect to borderline incoherent. At root they're simply opposed to *any* new, non-subsidized housing. What do you do with that? calmatters.org/politics/202...

okay sure so it worked in Denver

and in Austin

and it worked for downtown Oakland and for Sacramento

and yes, it’s worked for decades in Tokyo

but how can we be *sure* that building a lot more homes will make California a more affordable place to live??
Denver is building so many new apartments that vacancy rates reached a 16-year high and the average rent has fallen below levels seen two years ago, according to the Apartment Association of Metro Denver.

The average apartment rent in metro Denver fell to $1,819 in the first quarter.

Remember when they said if we raised millionaires' taxes, they would all move out of state? There are actually now more millionaires here in Massachusetts than there were before the ballot question (and about $2.5 billion more a year for education and transportation).
