i gave a talk last night and one of the points i made is that in addition to articulating a real defense of the Constitution, the opposition to Trump needs an actual constitutional vision that it can connect to a set of material policies.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Felicia, Steve, and Marshal...

I'm an economic populist and agree with the abundance folks: we have a supply problem. Check out my discussion on the most recent episode of The Realignment about how we can be better frenemies (and maybe even work together to get stuff done!): tinyurl.com/6ns39pdh

it has always been a long reaction to the New Deal. from then to now, capital had seen the New Deal as the sin that must be purged so that the rest of us understand our place as grist for their mills

Thanks, Sam. Was fun to talk to Adam Lowenstein about lefty patriotism and what we could build in 2025+.

President Jimmy Carter—a farmer, an engineer, a public servant, and a pragmatist—believed that government should serve the American people. He governed in a time not unlike our own when people struggled to keep the faith in American institutions. 🧵(1/4)

Tweet by Mike Benz: "This crazy lady screaming about "President Musk!" is the most powerful Democrat in Congress on all things US federal budget. She was Chair of the House Appropriations Committee for the first 2 years of Biden & has been the #1 Democrat there since the GOP won the 2022 midterms." Reply tweet by Elon Musk: "The crazy lady with the purple hair is the top House Dem in charge of spending taxpayer money!? 🤯" 8:23 PM Eastern, December 19, 2024. - Capture and transcription by Craig Brittain

Elon Musk, who failed miserably to hijack the federal government budget by a huge margin, is very angry at Rosa DeLauro.
