@PatrickRuffini Anyone following immigration debates in Congress for the last 15 years knows that it’s the GOP and not the Democrats who have been afraid to take the votes. Many of us will not forget what happened in 2013, when the house GOP buried what had been a bipartisan plan.
English
This path to a not-terrible midterm now seems more plausible:
- Some kind of successful resolution on Iran
- Trump then goes to the Artemis splashdown
- America 250 good vibes
- Midterm convention
- Actually force Dems to take bad votes on things like deporting criminals
English
@PatrickRuffini Amazing to see that even still, your allegiance is so strongly to your party and not to the country. And not even to a long-term vision of your party, but instead just a vision that clings to Trump. Shameful, but also deeply sad.
English
The Right's collective brain is getting melted in a vat of slop, conspiracy, and algorithm-chasing. An intelligent man will guard himself against all of it.

@jadler1969 Willhoit’s law. That’s all it is. (*Not All Conservatives, but a huge number of those that call themselves that these days)
English
Let me get this straight: House Republicans are arguing that circumstantial evidence should defeat the presumption that specific Executive actions are valid or lawful.🤔
English
@bethanyshondark @mbrooksrjc It’s telling that this is even considered a “hard stance.” mainstream liberals, and sane conservatives, who all left the GOP, have been warning about this for years. You’ve been inching toward the right end of the horseshoe for years, & now want to pull back before you fall off?
English
Really respect @mbrooksrjc for always being willing to take these hard stances.
Jewish Insider@J_Insider
Jewish conservatives, including the CEO of the Republican Jewish Coalition, condemned the Heritage Foundation and its president, Kevin Roberts, for Roberts’ defense of his “close friend” Tucker Carlson. @marcrod97 reports: ji.news/4ccbh
English
@bungarsargon @KevinRobertsTX Funny to realize you’ve been focusing all your energy and anger on the wrong side for the past few years. Many of us mainstream liberals have been seeing for years what you just seem to be realizing today.
English
This whole video is based on the assumption that "the interests of American citizens" doesn't include Blacks and Jews who oppose the normalization of racism and the inclusion of Nick Fuentes in the conservative movement. Nauseating, repulsive stuff from @KevinRobertsTX.
Kevin Roberts@KevinRobertsTX
There has been speculation that @Heritage is distancing itself from @TuckerCarlson over the past 24 hours. I want to put that to rest right now—here are my thoughts:
English
@bethanyshondark And the right side of that horseshoe is far, far more dangerous than the left side.
English
@bethanyshondark You’ve chosen the wrong side. The other side is an actually both ends of a horseshoe, but you put yourself very close to one end—much closer than mainstream liberals are to the other end.
English
This is a day of clarity. Truly a turning point moment.
When people tell you who they are, believe them.
I’ll certainly never forget it.

@matthewstoller @izzy_strelka @dieworkwear @selise Partial automation would change this somewhat but you don’t have any evidence for your assumption that the differential in labor cost would be trivial.
English
@matthewstoller @izzy_strelka @dieworkwear @selise There’s no basis for you to assume wages are 5% of the cost, or would be at that level under any plausible scenario. And of course wave differential is what makes that number variable! There are plenty of sources on this but here’s a popular-press account. marketplace.org/story/2025/04/…
English
Of course this is false, it’s UPS that has screwed up. But then @dieworkwear hates the idea of making things in America.
Classic left poseur snob.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, where by packages valued under $800 could slide in without duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
English
@matthewstoller @migueldeicaza @dieworkwear Nice use of passive voice (as well as quite an odd chain of inferences) to trash “the left” here.
English
@migueldeicaza @dieworkwear Really? A bunch of families whose kids died from drugs they got in the mail - many of which the kid thought were not fentanyl- say this is a problem.
And your response is that? That’s why the left is despised, just zero curiosity or seriousness.
English
don't know why it's surprising to hear that a massive amount of paperwork will ensue if you get rid of the de minimis exemption, resulting in chaos, confusion, and some packages being destroyed

@EWErickson Nah. Kennedy is in charge of HHS because of who the conservative movement chose as their presidential candidate. The conservative movement went off the deep end and elected an insane person as president, who has appointed unqualified pranks to virtually every cabinet position.
English
The arrogance of the Biden administration’s health department is the reason that Robert F Kennedy Jr. is now in charge of it.
English
@Yukon_Hiker @njh2005 This is really embarrassing for you. Take the L.
English
@njh2005 Hardly. Equity was created by an English King to appease his subjects. It’s not even close to foundational in anything but Marxist creeds.
English
The Supreme Court’s job is to preserve the status quo until legal questions are resolved and explain the disposition of cases for the public. They are abdicating basic principles of equity and failing to fulfill their institutional role. They aren’t even attempting to do law.
English
@whoismrzero @AntiClanker1337 @AnthonyMKreis You’re embarrassing yourself with this weird reflexive reaction to anything you fantasize as left/liberal. The constitutional principle of equity literally is what the OP was discussing. Just take the L.
English
Yes, but that equity and what is referred to as equity today are different principles.
That is referring to a system of law developed by the English Court of Chancery, that is still a part of our system alongside Common Law.
Equity as used by people today tends to mean equalizing outcomes in the name of fairness, but that is not Constitutional equity.
English
@YIMBYLAND @zapatas_mom @whstancil Trump’s election—twice!—along with the dramatic rightward migration of successful GOP politicians provide incredibly strong evidence that the median-voter theorem doesn’t explain US voting at the state or federal level.
English
@zapatas_mom @whstancil The median voter is a 50-something white person who didn't go to college and lives in Toledo, Ohio.
English
Do you not understand why the Mexican-American communities who are being persecuted for being Mexican may want to carry symbols of Mexican identity when they protest that persecution? Do you see how requesting they not do that is functionally a continuation of the persecution?
YIMBYLAND@YIMBYLAND
William, where did I demand anything? William, in what world is a guy who says “more neighbors, more fun” a nativist? William, do you deny that seeing a bunch of folks in USA clothes/bikinis getting gassed might be shocking to the majority of normie Americans? Crazy take.
English
@JohnDryden85 @JackFiller17 @Tzor @JLLiedl I think it matters that Halleluyah is a compound word with a precise syntactic meaning in Hebrew (praise be to Yah [the Lord God]). In Greek and Latin, Alleluia originated in transliteration & was directly imported w/o independent meaning.
English
This is probably the most unintentionally funny thing I have ever read in my life.
English
@DieHardySix @Noahpinion Now I think you’re probably trolling, since Gavin Newsom famously was sleeping with the wife of his good friend & campaign manager, while Newsom was married to his first wife.
English
@glukianoff This is really beneath you: ascribing bad-faith motives w/o evidence, using ad hominem & invective. What happened to you? If anything, recent events at UATX, Trump admin’s bad-faith use of antiwoke & anti-antisemitism to stoke state repression etc tend to prove critics correct.
English
They hate the Harper's Letter signatories so much because it represented a moment of clarity where the left could have righted the ship, but instead the haters were and are the people who mocked it and dismissed it, while probably always knowing the signatories were actually right.
So they must come back to it time and time again, to villainize signatories who included Noam Chomsky, Nadine Strossen, and Salman Rushdie, because to do anything other would be to admit they've made, and are continuing to make, a horrible mistake. The letter reminds them of their arrogance, foolishness, and cowardice.

@wyt001 The California National guard isn’t foreign military.
English
The US has its own military to deal with the situation if required. Why would foreign military be necessary?

So Canada and Mexico have sent in military or National Guard? It’s an invasion, people, it’s a war.
