- These old operators teaching the spineless hacks how to politic
- Exactly. As Tom Paine said we need to take an axe to the root and teach governments humanity.
- It is kind of wild to see what has come of Bill Kristol and David Brooks
- Whatever happened to the likes of bill kristol and david brooks - good! This is more radical than 7 sitting democrats and we will find out how many more in the senate.
- “Defensive shots”
- Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"
- You can donate your box - which is perfect for those who have not completely abandoned New Year’s resolutions
- What’s going on is that Hochul is facing a left flank primary challenge and Mamdani is the closest pivot point, right?
- Grim af.
- Primary every single one of them
- Not a political consultant but I’m not sure “standing up to trump doesn’t work” is the best midterm message, even if if accurately represents senate dems position. Not much point in putting you in power then bsky.app/profile/atru...
- It’s fine
- The author disabled quotes.I use Claude (an AI) to scan my posts for spelling and grammar errors. On the most recent post (about the East Wing, link below), I got a really amazing addendum. www.pbump.net/o/yes-most-a...
- I’m grinding this project down to dust, my goodness
- Cuomo: how do you not do BDS for UgAnDa for the gheys?
- Curtis Sliwa: our poor homeless pets deserve investment but these undeserving migrants are draining our funds! (Yes, pets - not vets.)
- Curtis Sliwa: they fight like hs girls! Zohran, your qualifications cldnt fill a cocktail napkin while Cuomo your failures fill NYPL!

- She was not trying to restrain him, she was trying to administer care by deescalating the situation because she saw he was seriously hurt - it’s true he totally blew past her and his friend ganged up on her, too.
- The Alien Earth evil sheep
- “Vintage slim” jeans - wheezing
- Lame
- This place is a refugee community that stifles healthy - even low level pathological - conflict, which has the effect of displacing politics onto the subaltern in ways that looks like their over-policing and punishment.
- @npr.org take notes
- This is a sign perhaps that they don’t care about electoral democracy?

- Absolutely - is getting more brazen?
- The intersection of antisemitism and sexual reaction that animates this particular formulation is especially noxious.
- We were lucky enough to host Vicky for some preliminary thinking on this project. Can’t wait to read its fully devastating argument! Because let’s face it: if you weren’t a Disney kid, you had no heart; but if you aren’t now in solidarity with the transfemme anarchist critique, you have no head.

- Epic! As I say - can’t wait to read and plausibly assign this book. Congrats on your accomplishment!!!

- Last day of clsss and I never made it to the fourth frame of the Winona meme - did I do it wrong or am I getting better?
- I feel very happy that Chase Strangio is making history as the first trans man to argue a SCOTUS case. But like why is he having to make his históric appearance? It’s not a good situation, and it’s freighted against him even though he has certain recent precedent seemingly in his favor.
- One of those moments when you wonder, how is this legal?
- Blue Cross Blue Shield in Connecticut, New York and Missouri has declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia for the full length of some surgeries. It the procedure goes over a certain time, anesthesia will not be covered for the duration. www.asahq.org/about-asa/ne...
- The worst part of the pharmacy line is surely the person singing along to the horrible Xmas music.
- Waiting on a long pharmacy line is revealing of the ppl you have to share company with
- In “society must be defended” Foucault argues that Hobbes renders war a discursive reality to obscure the violence of real conflict in ways that set the crucible for biopolitical security. We see this same dynamic on college campuses: heightened acrimony over securing speech while war carries on.

- It a real ‘rich text’ for sure!
- All the Republicans in Donald Trump’s party acting outraged by Biden’s pardon are shameless. Chuck Grassley’s ‘shame on me’ for believing him is 🤌🏻
- Why not pie?
- Let’s grant this is fair, then what lessons do we draw from this?

- The age meant he cldnt campaign/communicate to compete with Trump, who never stopped, and the austerity pivot meant they owned Bidenomics as an inflationary economy. Gaza was the nail in the coffin, mobilizing activist energies against him and his heir in electorally demobilizing ways.

- Yes left out of this narrative is his pivot to austerity post midterms.
- Today, yes.
- Never realized it but Manny Patinkin cld play Biden in the biopic.
