Both Obama and Biden ran on a platform of “let’s return to normal and let bygones be bygones, because republicans deep down just want to move beyond partisanship” It’s been the Dem message for almost *20 years*. And no Dems even want to pretend to believe it anymore

This glorious Garland bashing from a normie Dem, Pritzker’s Project 2029 and the rise of Newsomism makes the prospect of a post-norms Democratic Party feel exhilaratingly likely. It’s a huge deal—even a moderate president could be far better than Biden if they ditch the norms.

@prof_ibrows @constans You can define it however you want, but if one group will loyally support you if you make 5% of their problems go away, and another group will shit on you when you do the same—I don’t know why you’re puzzled why candidates court the former group over the latter.

@_cjt_ @constans Your point that leftists want actual problems to be solved and don't buy the party bs that making something 5% less bad made the problem go away? Libs love them some window dressing

@prof_ibrows @constans Again, thank you for proving my point. It’s pointless to make concessions to the Left because no matter how large, you all will complain that they’re not enough.

@_cjt_ @constans Sorry, I'm not happy to get table scraps just because I'm starving. If you want to see what even small government is capable of doing look at nyc right now. We have problems, we know the solutions. I will be happy when the solutions are enacted

@prof_ibrows @constans Also as far as healthcare, Biden expanded Medicaid to record highs and instituted huge ACA subsidies that made healthcare more affordable for millions of Americans.

@prof_ibrows @constans Biden provided debt relief to over 5 million borrowers, bailed out union pensions, walked the picket line, and was able to use his leverage to get striking unions a much better deal. The IRA is by far the largest climate change bill ever. You’re proving my point.

@prof_ibrows @constans The problem is that when Democrats make policy concessions to the Left, like canceling student loans, supporting organized labor, spending hundreds of billions on combating climate change, sharply reducing drone warfare, etc. they still get shit on by the Left.

@asymmetricinfo @preselectlee We should also have more Senators without a high school diploma. 10% of American adults have not graduated high school (or equivalent)

@preselectlee No just in general I think the educated class bubble is a major social and institutional problem.

It’s extraordinary how open-and-shut this case was, and the only reason Trump isn’t currently in prison is due to lucking out with getting his hand-picked judge to preside over the case.
NBC News@NBCNews

The Justice Dept. releases documents to Congress that included "damning evidence" about President Trump's procurement of highly sensitive documents, including some related to his business interests, when he left office after his first term, Rep. Jamie Raskin says. nbcnews.com/politics/trump…

If you've "gotten coffee" at Tatte at all — like you've hovered in the waiting area for a wee bit of table space to open up in order to complain about it — you’re in a weird, out of touch, elite bubble.

@DeepDishEnjoyer One thing Nietzsche speaks of in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" is that God speaks through prophets who will then be spoken though philosophers who insist that said prophets simply spoke and were spoken of, rather than spoken though. Of course, I can't actually speak to any of this.

In the Pacific Northwest and Utah, there's a popular condiment called "fry sauce" that seemingly none of the rest of the country likes. It's apparently made from a base of mayonnaise and ketchup, and various seasonings like pepper and garlic powder are added.

if you build the LEGO container ship in the US is it technically Jones Act compliant?
