Both ran significantly ahead of Carter in those states. Church by about 25 points.

I keep seeing people say, oh, trans people must take a hit for the greater good and, first of all, no, you don't get to discard someone else's rights and second, we know from past experience that marginalized communities like theirs are merely the first to be targeted. They'll come for you next.

I spent some time researching the Garland Fund for my dissertation. This article (and forthcoming book) is definitely worth your time.

LaGuardia gave some great speeches for his '24 campaign: "in my experience if a man dropped a 1,700 pound bomb and killed many unhappy people he was a great American... but if he sought to have the city appropriate sixteen cents for a quart of milk for some babies, then he is a radical."

one thing i think people should ask the court conservatives given this ruling is what, specifically, was wrong with plessy?

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

‘Wildly underprepared’: National Guard troops seen sleeping on floors in exclusive photos State troops sent to Los Angeles by the Trump administration, without the approval of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, were expected to sleep on floors or outdoors, a source told the Chronicle.

“I want to make a special appeal to soldiers, national guardsmen, and policemen: each of you is one of us. The peasants you kill are your own brothers and sisters. When you hear a man telling you to kill, remember God’s words, ‘thou shalt not kill.’”

Óscar Romero, El Salvador, March 23, 1980.

Good messaging would embrace the former and encompass the latter. I really think the Dems could more or less copy and paste from the 1944 Liberal Party Platform:

Most of the decertification reasons are administrative. My guess is that they’ll make some warped argument of Havard not operating “as a bona fide institution of learning.”

Some sad confirmation from @bcgl.bsky.social while I was at UW last week—the National Digital Newspaper Program—which builds Chronicling America—has been shut down

Historical newspapers are probably the archival material most used by the general public—for genealogy, local history—it’s such a loss

Republicans scour for options to sidestep Tony Evers vetoes, including not using digits in the budget Assembly Speaker Robin Vos said the GOP would discuss ways to craft the budget in a way that reduces ways for Evers to use his partial veto authority.

Just remarkable how much Republicans are banking on AI to do actual governing.

"If the court says you can strike digits and numbers, well now we'll have to not use digits and numbers. And the best thing about technology and AI is that, you know, in the push of a button, it can all be done."

One of the wildest things about this for me is that, historically, the meat packing industry itself pushed for government inspection. Turns out, if customers don’t think meat is safe to eat, they buy less of it. Who is this type of deregulation actually benefiting?

No one should be above the law, most especially the President.

Ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return isn't just cruel; it's unconstitutional.

They're saying the quiet part aloud — if they get away with it now, they'll do it to anyone.

We could all benefit from renewed attention on the Harding/Coolidge years. My dissertation research made it remarkably clear to me that “a return to normalcy” simply meant dismantling Progressive Era reforms and an embrace of robber baron kleptocracy.

“Responding to societal changes.” Good lord.

It’s really unfortunate for all of us how much the 2020s are shaping up to be like the 1920s

Jackson asks whether protecting consumers from unfair, deceptive, and abusive practices is a policy of the administration.

Justice Department attorney says he doesn't know.

Laughter in the courthouse ensues.

Of course not exactly the same, but when Eisenhower first took the presidency and started backing the U.S. out of its commitment to the United Nations, American liberals like Eleanor Roosevelt looked to Canada to fill the void.

Not to mention that many voters like the term “moderate,” but dislike the policy choices attached to it.
