When someone previously out of power gains power and starts speaking about "justice," you know it's a bad sign. Soon they will over reach and be out of power again.

To say that Indian immigrants have enriched and bettered this country in almost every possible way is to say something so undeniable that you HAVE to be a racist piece of shit to say or act or think otherwise.

Every student deserves a safe classroom, free from antisemitism.
An @EdWorkforceCmte investigation uncovered antisemitic materials in schools nationwide, including Philadelphia.
Thank you to @NAVIvalues for helping to expose this.

What if there is no longer any real theory of politics beyond everybody whiplashing from one party to the other in the vain hope that doing so will lower prices?
"This election should teach both parties that lesson again, but it will still be hard to learn.
The Democrats will resist it because it’s hard to learn anything from your own election victories. It just feels too good to win. You would think it should be obvious that this was not a public endorsement of anything about the Democratic Party: The party remains exceedingly unpopular, and its politicians didn’t even run on anything in particular in this election. Voters can’t stand the Democrats, but this election was not a referendum on the Democrats. It was a referendum on the Republicans, whom voters clearly also cannot stand."
Please read every word of this, from Yuval.
"In one sense, the range of explanations is so broad, and the public rebuke so overdetermined, that it might make it hard to decide where and how to change course. But in another sense, the comprehensive character of the problem makes it easier to define: The problem is Donald Trump. And the way forward for Republicans must begin by putting Trump behind them and asking themselves what they have to offer the country in his wake." nationalreview.com/corner/an…

This *ought* to be what happens. I think it's unlikely to happen and more likely to be spun inside the party as a progressive groundswell.

NYT reports AK Dems put spoiler candidate on ballot with same name as Republican incumbent senator.
Dems: "Yawn," "It's just politics," "Nothing illegal," "I don't like it but it doesn't matter," "norms, schmorms."
A week later, MI Dem politician endorses GOP senate candidate.
Dems: "This is the biggest outrage since the Defenestration of Prague!" "this will radicalize people!" "this Quisling should be flayed alive!" "Why has she not been turned into a pillar of salt yet?!?"

The Democrats are gonna win tomorrow, but they're so divided and headless. You've got:
* Leftists who still think Palestine is everything
* Angry old ladies who hate Trump but otherwise have no idea what they want
* Intellectuals who are still just really really mad that Mark Zuckerberg is rich
* Center-left Climate Libs who have basically just given up and think China owns the future
* Weird splinter factions of woke Bluesky cancel culture people running around calling everyone anti-trans
* Abundance?

We're proud to announce Issue IV of From the Academy: Antisemitism on Campus!

Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law (@brandeiscenter); and much more.
Together, these contributions examine the rise of campus antisemitism, the institutional failures that enabled it, the experiences of Jewish students and faculty, and the challenge of combating antisemitism while preserving free speech and academic freedom.

Kid Rock has Bill Maher pounding on the table laughing as he tells the wild story of how Trump left him on the phone with the president of France.
Kid Rock had privately told Maher the story once before. It didn’t matter. Maher still couldn’t keep it together.
MAHER: “Bob, you’ve gotten to know Trump personally over the years. What’s something about him that people would be surprised to learn? Oh, you want to tell the Macron story?”
KID ROCK: “The what?”
MAHER: “The Macron, the golf cart story.”
KID ROCK: “Oh yeah, that was funny. Yeah, we’re out golfing, and I hate speaking out of school, but this is just a fun one. And I mean, the guy’s taking calls all day. He’s working while you’re golfing. The guy does not stop working. I think we can all agree on that. He works. He sleeps like maybe four or five hours a night, right?”
“So we’re out there. Macron calls. He’s like, blah, blah, blah. He’s talking. We’re on the golf cart, right? I’m standing next to his golf cart. He’s like, ‘Hey, I’m here with the great Kid Rock,’ like Macron knows who I am. And he’s like, ‘Bob, say hello.’ So he gives me the phone.”
“I’m like, ‘Hello, Mr. President.’ And I’m like, ‘I’m from the Paris of the Midwest, Détroit.’ And Trump leaves!”
[Maher completely loses it]
MAHER: “I love that!”
Only Trump would hand the president of France off to Kid Rock and drive away. To this day, Macron probably still doesn’t know what the heck happened. 🤣
