I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops. I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops. I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.
I realize Winston isn’t a popular guy around here, but it still strikes me as less than ideal that the right is cancelling their symbol of opposition to Nazism.
well, i wasn’t before
To state the obvious Harris chickening out of a second debate after faring terribly in the first would have been treated very, very differently that the "Savvy choice, sir" reaction that Trump chickening out mostly did

I’m so grateful that I have tenure and the academic freedom to call it like I see it. “Dr. Kathleen Bachynski, a professor of public health at Muhlenberg College, described Kennedy’s comments as “absolute gibberish” and slammed the HHS secretary as a “dangerous buffoon” who is “threatening us all.”

National Guard soldiers called into service for President Trump's law enforcement surge in D.C. have been assigned to spread mulch at federal monuments. Normally the Park Service does that, but the administration laid off the workers. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Trump the modern monetary theorist
The thing about realism is that it makes zero attempt to differentiate between, and I would argue intentionally obfuscates, its normative and positive claims
“I see great things in baseball. It's our game--the American game. It will take people out-of-doors, fill them with oxygen, give them a large physical stoicism. Tend to relieve us from being a nervous, dyspeptic set. Repair these losses, and be a blessing to us.” Walt Whitman
You’re kidding me.
Wasn't there perhaps one little Von Trapp who didn't want to sing his head off or who screamed that he wouldn't act out little glockenspiel routines for Papa's party guests, or who got nervous and threw up if he had to get out on a stage? (1965)
David Ricardo certainly wasn’t a man of the right!
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.
Also the Republicans would absolutely have tried to pack the Court in response to a liberal majority.
Yeah. A Cruz-type wins after SCOTUS abolishes the death penalty (worth it), then gets crushed in ‘24 because the US suffers from all the COVID inflation with little of the Biden-era growth.
Everyone is focusing on the diction when to me, the significant thing is that Lincoln is correctly noting the American people did a wrong and needed to atone, something which is simply not allowed in today’s political/media environment.
Passing out printed copies of Liberal Currents articles at the factory gates like it’s the Daily Worker.

I will not cheer on the abuse of the law against anyone. We should be a nation of laws. Not a nation governed by grievance and karma.
How often does Matt say “the spot was good”?
Huntington's theory of "objective civilian control," the separation of military and civilian spheres reinforced by an "apolitical" professional ethos, remains a lodestar for the American military. Yet its foundation is flawed and, as events in DC show, continues to do more harm than good. My latest⬇️
Cheaters cheat.
This is going to sound dumb, but sports is maybe supposed to be consumed this way? Porno sax gave way to Sports Shouting and in retrospect the former was clearly keeping the fabric of society together.
At this campus, apparently, students and others can tape or mark over "M's" on university signage with impunity (ahem, in service of the rivalry with that university up north, Michigan!), but they can't chalk about a bake sale much less a meeting, movie, or politics. Make sense to you?
While negotiations and conversations continue in Washington, this weekend Northern Ohio hosted Sister Olena Punda of Odesa, Ukraine. Was honored to sit down with her for Fox 8 News to share her first hand story about Russia’s brutal and illegal war in Ukraine.

Apex Manor’s 2019 album Heartbreak City kicks ass.
It is objectively extremely alarming that the top officials of a presidential administration unabashedly ascribe to ultra-radical white nationalist and authoritarian ideas, but our political class can’t find a way to metabolize that fact without sounding partisan, so it’s treated as a curiosity
“Mississippi” by Bob Dylan!
it’s a real show of farce
164 years later, South Carolina finally occupies Washington.
One thing that would be useful now is to attack ICE, specifically, as a rogue agency, because it sets up pressure for reforms and also pressures other agencies to conduct themselves differently. There is massive evidence ICE has become, effectively, a neo-Nazi and white supremacist paramilitary

At least 1,760 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid in Gaza since late May, according to UN data.
I always said that the Not On Our Dime Act should include other occupations. Yeah yeah we're also cutting off charities that support the Moroccan occupation of Western Sahara, it's not targeting Israel.
Another month of import price data is in, and more proof that Chinese exporters are not the ones primarily absorbing the price impacts of tariffs
I liked but didn’t love Weapons but I did love its use of “Beware of Darkness”—George Harrison’s solo career kicked ass.

WATCH: “Are you f*cking out of your mind?” @marcmaron won’t let @howiemandel downplay the impact comedians like Joe Rogan have had on stripping rights from trans people, immigrants, etc. with “hack” bullying jokes that helped pave the way for Trump & the radical right takeover.
