Listen to Senator Wyden.

I wish more of his colleagues would do so.

Of course every bias tracker I've seen (LLM or not) is terrible about what it defines as "the center." You end up with something similar to DW-NOMINATE style metrics which find skew by votes against a party instead of the ideological content of the vote itself.

I could see something like this as a useful tool for dark money new/low info operations that are jumping into the media space. Something like:
- Earliest article
- Coverage % by topic (thinking local crime fear stoking pubs)
- Lean by topic
- Lean of publication over time (to track any shifts)

My favorite thing about James Carville is his endorsement of Michael Bennet in the 2020 Dem primary. Bennet dropped out a few weeks later after getting 6th place in Iowa and 10th place in New Hampshire.

Already reposted the quoted post but just started cracking up all over again because I can’t believe we saw a wholesome example of this exact format in the wild

There's a lot of new DnB! A lot of what I like is arguably more DnB *adjacent* but there is plenty out there. Tim Reaper is one my favorites consistently releasing good new stuff

Here’s how we do it: In each of our surveys, we presented users with a list of news platforms and asked them to select all the ones that they regularly consumed political content on.

Well, two Senate Republicans in the article are on the record wanting Warsh confirmed no matter what. Only Moreno is on the banking committee though.

ICE Terror Depressed Overall Metro Ridership in June - Streetsblog Los Angeles Even with the new connectivity and LAX station - and the highest ridership month in the three years the K Line has been open - ICE's dehumanizing raids significantly depressed ridership across the Met...

It's probably not the full cause, but ridership was up until the Trump goons ramped up their attacks in June. (The federal goons never left, by the way).

Additionally, any person, including any uniformed peace officer, private guard, or security personnel, in
possession of a firearm may neither be stationed in the immediate vicinity of nor posted at a polling place
without written authorization from the city or county elections official. (Elec. Code, § 18544, subd. (a).)15

was worried that "authorization" might just require a Noem and co. sign-off, but thankfully not how it is written:

Kid Rock at the Republican National Convention
YouTube video by C-SPAN Kid Rock at the Republican National Convention

I was being driven crazy trying to figure out why this was on cspan. Figured it out: it's from the 2024 RNC (which was broadcast on cspan!) Must just be rebroadcasting it (related to his senate testimony last week?)

reading the pelican brief in middle school taught me this is not okay unless you unofficially do it to stop fossil fuel-hired hit men from covering up the murder of a supreme court justice

Two thoughts:
1) It is a push poll that was clearly ineffective lol
2) That they are publishing it makes me think this is more of a fundraising ploy than a legit pro billionaire tax poll

These are somewhat contradictory so I'm gonna go with sickosyes.png to this result

I know there are differences across disciplines, but this six-page research letter (? note? prospectus?) has eight co-authors
