@sh4ch4r4z @PresArchive Remembering that RFK was LBJ's Attorney General until this election is also hilarious. Just a whole year where a man you despise, with no actual legal experience beyond law school, is the head of your DOJ. No wonder LBJ was happy to campaign to send him off to the senate.

@websterkaroon Boy ever since we got these whizz kids to run the defense department we've been killing way more North Vietnamese! Victory must be just around the corner.

A wonderful demonstration of how tracking the wrong statistics will lead you to the complete wrong conclusions

@RVBATS_ @firebornnn They had to switch him out for the clone born in the U.S. when he's the cabinet's designated survivor

This is the median Democratic voter’s wet dream btw. Exactly this.

Would YOU support this all-star lineup in the 2028 U.S. election? Why or why not?

@NewDealEnjoyerr @neo_kme @ettingermentum Sebatir Richard Russell Jr got the 2nd most democratic delegate votes (about 200) after Truman, so he never walked out of the convention like the other southerners. He and his state of Georgia were still very racist, and he later wrote the final version of the Southern Manifesto.
English
@neo_kme @ettingermentum Is there a particular reason why Georgia was less racist than the rest of the deep south?

@danlavassar @f4micom Based off that article Yanis believes too which is good enough for me

Yanos Varoufakis? VALVE’s in-house economist?
Brian McDonald@BrianMcDonaldIE
A viral track repeating just two words,“Yanis Varoufakis,” is spreading across Russia's clubland. Created by a Moscow DJ, the tune has taken off among zoomers, with critics linking its appeal to a revival of 90s/early 2000s techno. The irony is that most listeners likely have no idea who @yanisvaroufakis is, they just like the rhythm of the name.

@HenryGB_274 @SheriL16 @davidsirota But he balanced the budget, lowered unemployment, AND had years of consecutive economic growth! What more could you possibly want?!
English
@SheriL16 @davidsirota Crazy how Bartlett never actually accomplishes any domestic policy beyond a tax write off for sending your kid to college, which he loses a season later.

these people are frozen in time in a 1999 West Wing episode and have absolutely no idea that the world has changed

Yes, Dems DO need a combative centrist! That's @ThirdWayTweet's mission: to get a combative centrist on the ticket and into the White House. @AdamWren discusses the $50M effort today on the @playbookdc pod. youtu.be/Ajg8ADZIOtc?si…

@HeerJeet Which is infuriating because iraq was still a 65-35 issue when obama first spoke against it, the yglesias popularism doctrine would have never had obama do it. If israel was marginally less unpopular, yglesias would still be playing the same stupid game
English
It pains me to say it but yes, Yglesias is right. In general it's a good sign that the most opportunistic and sleazy centrist types are now realizing they need to ditch Israel to save their political future.
Sami Gold@souljagoyteller
Yglesias is right here

@AndroidNeera @ettingermentum There will be a significant number of democrats who think he is effective at doing evil and so would not describe him as ineffective

@MattZeitlin The creatures outside looked from Trump to Brandon, and from Brandon to Trump, and from Trump to Brandon again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

I'm not asking you to become Brandon. I'm saying, when the time is right, you will look in the mirror and already be Brandon
Dasha Burns@DashaBurns
NEW: Sources tell me frustration inside the Trump White House is mounting over Israel’s latest strikes — with one person familiar describing them as “very reckless.” Qatar has privately warned U.S. officials that targeting energy infrastructure “needs to be stopped,” the source says.

@BVasquezart1 @ragingmotelfire The klan at this point was also still very anti-immigrant, with a strong anti-catholic sentiment. Remmick wouldn't want to be associated with those people who looked down upon him and his countrymen.
English
@ragingmotelfire Remmick wasn’t a racist, he just wanted blood and would do anything to grow his clan. He was truly offended anyone think of him as being a white supremacist instead as a blood sucker. He truly wanted anyone who’d join. A clear distinction between the vampires and the klan.
English
“Remmick is genuinely offended by this” will never not be funny!! I love seeing Jack O’Connell’s performance side by side with the Sinners’ OSCAR WINNING original script written by Ryan Coogler!!
English
@inceptstellar Have they had much personnel crossover? I know for example Nolan's longtime script supervisor did Sinners, or does villeneuve just have his own people because he's an older more
established director than coogler

@tarab_ish It's quote tweeting a quote tweet of warren endorsing platner, what is it about then?

@nikicaga All the people who were snake emojiing warren for endorsing platner are now having an aneurysm

Graham Platner for Senate@grahamformaine
Thank you, Bernie Sanders, whose relentless and often lonely fight for the last 40 years has been a beacon of hope to millions. I am humbled to stand with you and to carry your legacy and our movement forward. We will stand together in the Senate and pass Medicare for All.

PRESIDENT HUMPHREY NO DON'T DO IT
Definitely Not Al Gore 🇺🇲🇺🇦🇵🇸@AlDefinitely
For Secretary of Labor, Humphrey selected Cesar Chavez, revered civil rights activist and agricultural labor leader. Humphrey had also considered making him Secretary of Agriculture, but Chavez believed more good could be done at Labor.
English
@willmenaker Snake emojiing Warren when Bernie has also endorsed platner is kinda hilarious. "You've always been a traitor to leftism ever since you backstabbed the man I am also mad at for endorsing the nazi tattoo guy!"
English
For all my Bluesky brothers and sisters may I recommend this for your upcoming posts: "🐍"
Elizabeth Warren@ewarren
Graham Platner's got the grit to fight for what’s right on behalf of Maine’s working families—not billionaires and giant corporations. He’s inspired a grassroots movement to flip Maine, and I’m thrilled to endorse @grahamformaine for Senate.

@admcrlsn Does this match up with prior stats that she still performed best with the zohran-talarico coalition?
English
We now have definitive evidence that Kat overperformed in the areas of the district with the highest shares of Black voters (west and south Evanston).
Biss overperformed in the whitest parts of Evanston.
