The Sister Souljah Moment was Bill Clinton going to a Rainbow Coalition dinner and calling them out for hosting an insane activist. A Democratic presidential candidate has a golden opportunity to do the same with Pod Save America and Hasan Piker.

People will take Ozempic, but they won't "pic" up their friends and take "'em" to Wicked, a delightful reimagining of the Wizard of "Oz"

Big news: @Prospera_Africa is here! 😊🌍🚀 If you've been following me, you know how strongly I believe that Africa’s poverty isn’t due to a lack of talent, but because overregulation keeps holding us back. When we make it easier to start and grow businesses, using a proven…

I will take the bold stance that building new apartments in Seattle is different than settler-colonialism, mass deportations, the Nakba, etc

"How is YIMBY different from the nakba" is an absolute shoo-in for the Bad Tweets bracket

Dems out here trying to win the people-that-make-everything-harder-for-themselves demographic

I’m sorry,@MassGovernor, you signed a permitting reform bill that makes permitting…harder?!? Your bill: -Adds more community outreach and public meetings, which historically *spurs* opposition clean energy projects -Sets up a trust fund where the state *pays people to sue…

Massive shout out to @FaB_Foundry! This was their time hosting a Calling, but it felt like they've run dozens of events like this. Maybe the smoothest, best run, and nicest TCG event I have been to. You guys absolutely rocked this weekend. @fabtcg #fabtcg #portland

This is a monumentally important point that is constantly ignored. The reason U.S. tax rules are so complicated is because *you have to define what is and isn't taxable.* And there's like a million different ways people transfer money, goods, and capital between each other.

Obviously Chamath knows this, but US tax rates already fit on one page of simple English. The other 6999 pages enumerate every edge case of what counts as income and what doesn’t and what the deductions are, which you still need to define for a flat tax!

There's an old saying in Lenin—I know it's in Marx, probably in Lenin—that says there are decades...where nothing...nothing happens...and there are... a lot of stuff happens really fast

Nobody would patronize a business that didn’t use coercion to make people follow the smoking rules, and people who rely on mass transit deserve just as good — Democrats need to be the party of public order and quality public services.

The turn from “we need to be more thoughtful about how the criminal justice system works” to “maybe it’s bad to enforce laws” was really bad and needs to be rolled back ASAP. slowboring.com/p/liberalism-a…

The "neoliberal era" never existed. It's a made-up pejorative term to describe an ideological caricature that almost nobody has ever espoused, and is only used by anti-capitalist activists on the far-left and far-right.

.⁦@ChrisMurphyCT⁩ has rightly been making this point early and often. D’s need to fully ditch the economic status quo of yesterday! The neo-liberal era has long been over. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

these organizations are climate arsonists

NYSERDA is making moves to deploy low-emissions nuclear energy in New York. The usual Big Green suspects have issued a joint letter to New York Governor Hochul rebuking her for her recent support of nuclear energy. Last dying gasps for air.

🚨NYT just dropped this incriminating graphic of all of the young women Matt Gaetz has venmoed. This is not a man who should be our AG or lead antitrust efforts and anyone who thinks so should not be listened to.

i am sorry but redefining “providing a democracy invaded by its fascist neighbor the means to defend itself” as being neoconservative “blood mongers” is absolutely fucking twisted
