Could you elaborate on that? What shifts?
I hks is Harvard Kennedy School, what are the other two?
Could you elaborate what this means? What is unitary legislative leadership?
Really interesting piece. W. David Marx is I think one of our most brilliant cultural critics
PA should build a lot more housing so PA doesn’t lose out in reapportionment again in 2030. The number we need to hit: 130,000 more homes above-baseline. That’s the same number Gov Shapiro says we need to hit to dig out of the statewide housing shortage thephiladelphiacitizen.org/the-key-to-p...
The rumors I've heard point basically say he doesn't truly now the catechism, and so hasn't gone through RCIA. This just says that he was baptized/confirmed by a Dominican community. Is there a clear answer here? Do you think it's just a conspiracy theory?
Did JD Vance go through RCIA? I've heard rumors otherwise but no thing solid
Michigan homeowners are racing to install rooftop solar before a 30% federal tax credit disappears—all because our federal government is actively dismantling climate progress.
All this will do is increase costs and we need state leaders to step up and increase funding for clean energy access.
In this morning's newsletter, I wrote about an under-appreciated problem for liberalism — its total failure to cultivate young talent www.vox.com/on-the-right...
Whats a book/article/documentary/etc you'd recommend to get a grasp on this? I know nothing about this and rn have a vague sense of modern congressional procedure
According to this Supreme Court, President Biden's Department of Education was exceeding its power by trying to forgive peoples' student loans.
President Trump, on the other hand, has the power to just completely dismantle the entire Education Department.
there is also a lesson here for the youth vote, which is that if you show up in primaries - really, truly show up - you can kick the establishment in the teeth
This is the most expressly partisan thing I’ve ever seen the Catholic Church say in the US
INBOX: Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, is urging lawmakers to change the GOP-led “Big, Beautiful Bill” budget proposal, citing Pope Leo to argue that the bill “takes from the poor to give to the wealthy.”
It’s the strongest language USCCB has used yet
Is there a good book you'd recommend to understanding wrestling in a political context? Or just to understanding wrestling?
IMO, NY Politics are cursed because Republicans are essentially a vestigial organ, filled to the brim with cranks and jokes, the right-wingers who actually want to win run and vote as Democrats to push the state party right.
This is the reason why people were talking about a Strong Republican Party
Pittsburgh could really boost housing construction by allowing infill at historic density by default.
Used to be a 6 unit building on this site? Now it's an empty lot? You're free and clear to rebuild one here.
Nobody displaced, no new infrastructure to maintain, no threat to historic character.
That sounds great! Can I see where you've written this plan?
Is there a source for this? I've seen this claim before but haven't seen a reputable source.
Homey little songs about how cities are amazing and you feel good when you wander around them and they're where you're from and you couldn't imaging living anywhere else are one of my favorite microgenres.
Feel like shit just want this to be real
Free movement of labor is a matter of justice, it's our current halfway globalization that leads to exploitation
This was really interesting! I thought the parts in church teaching were very insightful, but I'm not sure the reality behind populist beliefs were well described. Globalization has led to disinvestment in the rust belt, but also huge increases in quality of life for developing nations
I took four years of Latin in highschool, but that was a bit ago so I'm a little rusty but could try
That sounds like David Mayhew's model
I get why they had Democratic and Republican candidates, but I think it's shameful a "progressive" organization would give a forum and a microphone to a MAGA republican to attack a local progressive, and mislead us into thinking he simply fled when he was up front about his availability

to make of O'Connor and say it was indicative of his character. At the end of the forum, an Organizer from Pittsburgh United said that they would be going to his office to demand the answers to the questions he missed, as if he simply got scared and fled

I went to the mayoral candidate housing forum today hosted by Pittsburgh United.@coreyoconnorpa.bsky.social had to leave early, but he let the organizers know (I checked with Pittsburgh United while leaving). After that,a republican candidate picked up the microphone after each question

Back by popular demand ... Hope it's not too early to gear up for the next Peepal Conclave 🐤 🐤
I hear lots of professors tell this story of functional illiteracy, however I usually only hear it from professors of reading heavy topics (TBF I'm double majoring in political science and sociology, and the academics I follow here are liberal arts). What are STEM faculty seeing?
