you don't have to live in DC to have a DC Pundit vibe and aesthetic. TCW has it in spades, and I honestly don't know if he's ever lived in DC.

How do you, personally, feel about the Chorus funding story from what you've heard/read/watched thus far?

I'm worried about dark money groups and/or Stephen King directing $millions to sink him in the Democratic primary. I really hope I'm wrong on this.

fuck Trump and all he represents. If this summit didn't also represent a solidification of a commitment to keep funding and arming the brutal invasion of Ukraine, I'd be laughing at the spectacle of it all.

Meritocracy is a myth. What people genuinely deserve isn't really a factor. That being said, I understand why Black people aren't exactly chomping at the bit to be on the frontlines battling ICE thugs. That job is reserved for elderly white people in business suits.

IMHO, the Vietnam War was the origin of so many fissures in the multicultural working-class solidarity movement. I question how much Kennedy and Johnson realized what they were setting us up for.

Every state has voters of all stripes, but it's a spectrum. There are plenty of staunch Republican voters here in MA--including committed MAGA believers, but we have zero GOP representation in DC. We do have some conservative Dems who desperately need to be primaried, but that's another story.

Maine is fuchsia. Like Nebraska, it splits its electoral college votes. The greater Portland area and other towns along the south and central coast are pretty liberal, but the deep interior of the state is quite conservative in the old-time Acadia sense.
