I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?
Almost a decade after the Brexit vote, GDP in the UK is around 6-8% lower relative to peer countries. (Source: www.nber.org/papers/w34459)

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.
I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Bari Weiss is putting out segments on CBS with John Fetterman proposing that social media is to blame for anti-Israel sentiment because the algorithms favor anti-Semitism.
I think it has a lot more to do with seeing a genocide on our phones every day for years now

Here’s how Tricia McLaughlin defended this earlier today; focusing on his criminal record (and exaggerating it greatly by telling about charges and not the far lesser offense he pled guilty to).

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

This is another communist candidate running for Congress in Illinois.
If DSA@DemSocialists had their way, Congress would be full of jihadists and wannabe hookers who want to seize all means of production.
Not only is she running for Congress, but she's also dating @oneunderscore_Ben Collins, the CEO of the Onion.
These are not serious people.
Please cover your cooch @KatAbughazaleh.

Hot take: Young men “playing video games all day” deserve access to health insurance too. In a humane society everyone should have access to health care regardless of who they are or what they do. We should be expanding health insurance coverage, not kicking people off it.
