For those who scream President Biden isn’t doing enough, this is what progressives wanted. He delivered. “The SAVE plan was finalized after the Supreme Court struck down President Joe Biden’s student debt forgiveness initiative in June.” cnn.com/2023/07/30/pol…

This New York Times article is journalistic malpractice. The e-bike riders were killed by SUVs. Cars cause 43,000 deaths every single year, that’s the problem here. We’ve become so normalized to the death caused by cars that journalists are blaming the victims

@Danchaon @BartKing But they say there’s going to be a desktop version of Threads soon. That’s the one I’m pinning my hopes on—it’s become a lot more usable just in the week or so I’ve been on it, and I think will continue to evolve. I don’t expect ever to get into Bluesky.

Dear Justice Alito: You’re on the Supreme Court in part because Congress expanded the Court to 9 Justices. Congress can impeach Justices and can in many cases strip the Court of jurisdiction. Congress has always regulated you and will continue to do so. You are not above the law.
Nate Raymond@nateraymond

Justice Alito tells the @WSJ that Congress has no business policing SCOTUS. "I know this is a con­tro­ver­sial view, but I’m will­ing to say it... No pro­vi­sion in the Con­sti­tu­tion gives them the au­thor­ity to reg­u­late the Supreme Court—pe­riod." wsj.com/articles/samue…

Weird to me watching reporters skipping over giving credit to Biden for the economy and going right into “why isn’t Biden getting credit for the economy?” It’s because you are turning a remarkable economic turnaround into a “here’s why this is bad for democrats” story.

Backers, opponents of Ohio Issue 1 bankrolled by out-of-state groups. Supporters and opponents of Issue 1 say they want to combat out-of-state interests in Ohio. That's where most of their money is coming from. dispatch.com/story/news/pol…

This seems a good time to make the transition to Threads permanent, and I'm going to try not to log on here going forward. I've followed as many of you as I could find there as possible; if I've missed you, please follow me (davidwalker1275). Let's put M*sk out of business.

You guys understand what a second Trump presidency would mean for this nation, right? There would be no guardrails.
