@the_P_God @anangbhai Well, being massively rich and from New England.

@greggnunziata @stephenfhayes I remember an interview with Steele where he said he’d made his career choices based on his desire to wear custom shirts.

Ending racial districting is neither maga nor Confederate and it's a shame that a former RNC chair cannot see that.
Michael Steele@MichaelSteele
“If y’all could give us less than zero seats you would do it…The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy." Nailed it.

NEW: A disabled woman is suing homeless services in Portland, Oregon, after she was denied rent relief due to her low score on the city's race-based prioritization rubric, which awards more points for requesting "culturally specific services" than for having a disability.🧵

NEW: In a mandatory anti-racism class, Penn State told 1L law students they must "acknowledge the reality of systemic racism" and "dismantle systems that racialize, subordinate, and oppress."
One student withdrew from the law school over the class. We obtained shocking audio.🧵

idk. young vanessa williams was stunning and very exotic looking. i don't think it's just that there was no social media
Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs)@agraybee
It was because we didn't have social media to allow racists to rile each other up. If anyone was bothered by it they had to do so in private.

@PeterMoskos Yeah, the progs are psyched to do that to their enemies too. There’s no contradiction.

American CJ progressives love the Scandinavian model of criminal justice.
Meanwhile Scandanavia says: "Hold my beer while we beat these motherfuckers for disobeying our authority."
It's a choice.

🚨 THIS IS HOW YOU DEAL WITH THE RADICAL MOB. An anti-Semitic mob tried to blockade the Maersk headquarters in Copenhagen to disrupt critical maritime infrastructure. Danish police showed absolutely zero tolerance. They moved in, restored public order, and shut the mob down. European cities need to stop negotiating with these radicals and start clearing them out. RT to show the world how it is done. 🔄

@ReedReports @daveweigel @scrippsnews Bit surprising given the pace of visible assassination attempts.

NEW: Sen. Jim Justice (R-WV) tells me @scrippsnews he doesn't know if he can support the $1 billion of funding for ballroom security included in the reconciliation bill.
JUSTICE says he wants ballroom to be secure but: "I can't fathom that kind of number for security."

@jessesingal Fix du jour? As in decades of policy and practice in many institutions?
English
2/ ...peak of the racial reckoning it was very hard, within these institutions, to question the DEI fix du jour! I think that can partly explain what happened here and why the NYT finds itself in a legally vulnerable situation.

1/ Wrote about the white-guy discrimination case at NYT (link in next tweet). It's being slotted in as some sort of deranged MAGA legal hail mary but it isn't. I do think it reveals certain things about the bubbles that exist within left-of-center institutions. During the...

@HeatherCherone @wttw The logic of the police accounting reporting Heather does is that crime costs nothing. Just let criminals run free, problem solved.

NEW: Lawyers for the city of Chicago convinced a federal jury in December that a police officer did not violate the civil rights of the unarmed man she shot twice.
But that victory still cost Chicago taxpayers $1.37 million. @wttw news.wttw.com/2026/05/11/cit…

@mattyglesias So lose control immediately. Doesn’t seem better.
English
@mattyglesias Prob it’s a reaction to seeing family foundations from a few generations ago become zombie progressive institutions.

Which frame most accurately models their behavior? -- "They love their friends" vs "They hate their enemies".
Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸@pmarca
The problem with "suicidal empathy" is that they are neither suicidal (they happily gather power/status/money for themselves) nor empathic (they are nakedly hateful to their outgroups).

I’ve been thinking a lot about Robertson Davies’ trilogy lately. The role of magic, or illusion.

One of the Ohio Medicaid firms was run by a career criminal with numerous fraud and theft convictions. He says Medicaid was fine with that; it paid him $1M. When I asked him about it, he said he was “just too dumb to know what is law” then threatened me. LISTEN:

OHIO MEDICAID PART 3. So you've seen the sketchy buildings filled with 100s of Medicaid LLCs, taking millions of dollars each by telling the government they performed unverifiable luxury services for Somalis. Who runs these companies? Let's pick one random door.

My statement regarding @XavierBecerra based on actual first-hand knowledge of working closely with him in the Cabinet. He’s going to be a great governor for California.
"Xavier Becerra walked into HHS and went to work for the American people from day one. He took on Big Pharma and won, delivering the first-ever Medicare drug price negotiations and cutting costs for millions of Americans who had been left behind for decades. He expanded health coverage to more than 24 million people and stood up for reproductive rights when they were under siege. That's not a bureaucrat — that's a leader. California needs that same fighter in the Governor's mansion, and I'm proud to stand behind Xavier Becerra."

@MrShermichael The progs consolidated their power in Chicago and will be happy to take the loss to do the same in NY.

Part 3 is out, and this story is only going to get bigger.
When @lukerosiak questioned a convicted fraudster whose homecare company is billing Medicaid $100k per month, someone immediately called him from another phone number and seemed to threaten his entire family.

“In 2014, white men made up roughly 31 percent of US medical students, a figure closely aligned with their share of the national population… By 2025, white men accounted for just 20.5 percent of medical students.” compactmag.com/article/medici…

@KelseyTuoc It’s a guild system that’s failing because it can’t maintain quality or public confidence.
English
More broadly the obsession with everyone having the exact right credential, and with requiring more credentials being treated as equivalent to creating higher quality, is absolutely insane and bad for education
English
No one I know who sought or obtained a degree in childhood education thought it made them a better teacher. (student teaching was often super helpful).
giardiniera gestator@just_riffing
Actually neither of us are qualified to homeschool children because we both have not obtained degrees in childhood education hope this helps, Allie.
