An interesting fact about American politics is that the Obama administration actually signed into law a sweeping overhaul of financial regulation that Wall Street lobbied against ferociously only to have leftists spend the next decade+ pretending it never happened.
If during the Depression FDR had campaigned for the New Deal & then instead continued Herbert Hoover’s elite-friendly policies, the backlash mighta made Charles Lindbergh president. There — now you understand the financial-crisis-era succession from Bush to Obama to Trump.
Barbara Lee cast the only vote against invading Afghanistan after 9/11 and said in an interview: “I got death threats. I had to have security round the clock, couldn't travel. Someone actually called my home phone and shot guns into the voicemail.”
Running for mayor would subject Barbara Lee to something she never really encountered in her career: harsh opposition and personal attacks. trib.al/OLYXNGD
Unpopular opinion: the “Karen” is right. Emotional support dogs are not covered by the ADA and nature preserves that disallow dogs do so for a reason. Our whole country is going to sh*t bc people who actually care about upholding rules and norms are vilified at every turn…
We don’t hate Karens enough. Watch as one tries to lecture and stop a person with a service dog from enjoying a walk in Fort Collins.
NOT A MANDATE: Jim Clyburn: “Less than 50% of the American people voted for Trump. Democrats gained seats in the House. That’s not a mandate. Democrats need to regroup, reassess, and move forward together.”
If Superintendent Walters really wanted to put Bibles in every classroom, he would have done it. It's not hard or expensive. It would take no more than a few hours of time and a handful of phone calls to secure private funds (maybe $150,000) and the bibles. Instead... 1/3
The Bible is back in Oklahomas classrooms. We are getting our kids back on track.
Recall champion now championing against recalls — Joel Engardio claims his case is 'different' because, well, it's him
There's been a LOT about why RFK Jr is a terrible pick, but I want to focus on something that is very concerning to me, but no one seems to be mentioning. He appeals to a widespread, common-sense idea that the problem with our food is that it has "lots of artificial…
Never forget: Kevin McCarthy said, “I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker. It's because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old.” That member is Matt Gaetz.
Parts of San Francisco could be confused for Europe
Saying it again 49.9% with a 1.5% margin is not an overwhelming majority. Stop feeding the narrative that he won overwhelmingly. The nation is split as it has been and he won on the margin. Half the nation said “no” and let’s not act otherwise
Updated estimate: Harris 76.2m votes (48.4%) Trump 78.5m votes (49.9%) other 2.6m votes (1.5%) Total turnout 157.3m votes (vs 158.6m in 2020) Trump margin +1.5% Tipping-point state: PA (Trump +2.1%)
This is one of the reasons I’m voting @ryankhoj for District Attorney. I think you should, too.
in 2022, days before the recall of Chesa Boudin, Brooke Jenkins tweeted that the loss of 20 victim services staff in his office justified the recall “This is precisely why he must be recalled” in a shorter period of time, she’s lost 28 such employees missionlocal.org/2024/11/da-bro…
BREAKING: Mark Farrell has agreed to a $108K ethics fine, largest in San Francisco history Farrell commingled funds between campaign committees ethics commission (and rivals) said that was effectively an end-run around campaign contribution limits missionlocal.org/2024/11/s-f-et…
BREAKING: Mayoral candidate Mark Farrell is set to pay the largest penalty in ethics commission history: $108,179. The commission called Farrell's use of two campaigns finances a “significant” violation of law. Farrell called it "an accounting error." sfstandard.com/2024/11/04/far…
Garry Tan's brainless flailing at Lateefah Simon is a great example of SF tech's weirdo right-wing politics. a) Simon's going to win. b) She's a protégé of Kamala Harris, whom Tan *pretends* to support. A real political player would be building a bridge, not jumping off one.
They're calling in the first ever intentional economic depression platform in US history
Trump and Eric were caught peeking at their wives ballots. Don't they trust their wives? Women, don't let anyone intimidate you about who to vote for.
Some people seem to have forgotten how bad a president Trump was, so I made a list of the 100 Worst Things About the Trump Presidency, in no particular order. Please share and add anything I missed. 🧵
