The shorter path to the goal is capturing the party and its apparatus by primarying collaborative centrists and replacing them with more progressive representatives

Doubtful. The Biden admin had four years to release those files, but didn’t. I suspect that it isn’t only prominent Republicans who are implicated by them.

The didn’t vote to end the shutdown, they voted to allow the shutdown to end! It’s totally different!

Georgia state law only allows pardoning *after* the criminal sentence has been served

The would have to change Georgia law, which only allows pardons *after time served*

Wait, are you unaware that Senate Dems just said, “please don’t tear it all down, please don’t make us have to rebuild, change will not be good, we’re not ready to go with what the public is all for”?

Democratic voters handed the party a historic result on Tuesday, the *same week* Dem Senators captitulated to Republicans, and you think this is about “the reactionary ‘left’?”

You can’t be serious

It’s worth noting that nowhere did they say “no blame on the republicans, all the dems fault”

You believe the Dem caucus spontaneously produced just enough votes, all of which are from seats that are either retiring or are not up for reelection in 2026

Sweet summer child

None of the yes votes are from seats up in 2026, this should answer your question

It’s mere coincidence that every Dem yes vote is from a seat not up for reelection in 2026, totally unplanned

He ran as the Democratic candidate, so that might be a question for Mamdani

Obesity is defined medically, not normatively

In principle, *everyone* in his demographic could be obese

But yes, fully agree, his talent is sociopathy

(But he’s also, likely, obese)

2024 South Carolina Code of Laws :: Title 16 - Crimes and Offenses :: Chapter 3 - Offenses Against The Person :: Section 16-3-600. Assault and battery; definitions; degrees of offenses. Justia Free Databases of U.S. Laws, Codes & Statutes

Actually, it *doesn’t* meet the technical definition in SC, which requires bodily injury or intent to bodily injure

But there is no law that says you can’t hit someone with a sandwich, so that fact by itself doesn’t give them grounds to convict

F and M trains will swap routes between Manhattan and Queens starting in December 2025 We're making this change to improve reliability. Here's what you need to know about how your trip may change. New York City Transit

By this logic, can’t someone who has their citizenship revoked demand a new U.S. passport, on the basis that their citizenship is a historical fact?

I may be mistaken but I think the issue is that the House has to authorize someone other than the Speaker to do so, which can’t happen while Johnson keeps the House in recess

Free buses and childcare are social positives from which everyone will enjoy a benefit

Arguing that Jewish NYers will only enjoy it in the context of a specific stereotype seems itself antisemitic 🤷🏽

I've worked political campaigns before, put my heart and soul into the effort, spent 100% of my time 7 days/wk burning the candle at both ends, so I know how earthshatteringly heartbreaking it is to lose and know all your hard work amounts to absolutely nothing. So to today's losers, let me say: Lol

Sinema had a 14 year AZ legislative record prior to running for the Senate

Were there any red flags there, or was her behavior in the Senate not foreseeable?

Perhaps this is embarrassingly naive of me, but one of the major things corroding my sense of self-worth and optimism for the future is just how little doing a good job at anything matters to anyone's success or livelihood anymore. These journalists were crushing it and they were punished for it.

I think of Agent Cooper’s serial killer nemesis every time I see her name, I can’t help it
