Glad to see that slide in my how-a-bill-does/doesn't-become-a-law slide deck on discharge petitions is finally relevant

How did something so self evidently obvious elude me

This college professor was lk horrified that my first-year- college-student daughter's dorm room lacks any shelf for books. To action!

As long as we're collectively thinking back to implications of #HurricaneKatrina 20 year out -- it's still wild to me that 2010 census and 2011 reapportionment revealed an entire congressional district of people were displaced from NOLA to Texas. 🗺️ #PoliSky #PoliSciSky

Delighted to share that my work with @profteigen.bsky.social is out!

We test the often touted assumption/claim that people who live near military bases in the US will be more conservative/Republican. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, we find NO link.

So why has this myth persisted? 1/

I haven't been back to my home state in a million years, but happy birthday, Wisconsin!

As an Iowan, my definition of Midwest is Iowa, states that border Iowa, and (if I’m feeling permissive) states that border two states that border Iowa.

For these veterans, the secret to crossing political divides starts with a beer In an effort to reach across political divides, a group of veterans has been holding regular gatherings to talk about it — all over a beer. They call the events "Pints and Patriotism."

CivMilSky Sort of a "With Honor" for the electorate?

#PoliSciSky Just got an email promoting Stata version 19. NINETEEN! What was your first version? Mine was V7 and it was intercooled.

New Barometer of National Mood: number of undergraduates per week who took your gen ed Am Govt class a couple semesters ago and now in office hours needing reassurance the republic will continue to stand. It's trending up.

This is not surprising and entirely consistent with policy fromTrump’s last administration as @profteigen.bsky.social, Theresa Schroeder, Kyleanne Hunter, and I wrote then wapo.st/3X5rWpI

I think Texas missed an opportunity

As a tenured prof @ a private institution, I believe I have an obligation to speak out on issues that my colleagues at other institutions or in more tenuous positions cannot.

If you have privilege & protections, use that to preserve our rights and freedoms. 1/

How is Trump missing this opportunity? "Golf of America"

I assume the protesters in Tbilisi are looking fondly at the protesters in Seoul?

The U.S. president has broad discretion on military matters. The president-elect's proposed uses of the military on U.S. soil could draw the armed forces into partisan disputes.

There has been a lot of confusion over what the president can(not) do with the military. And lots of misunderstanding about what Posse Comitatus actually means. We explain it all in this @goodauth.bsky.social piece.

Look on the bright side: either we preserve our liberal, democratic form of government or Allan Lichtman is embarrassingly wrong and we all get to laugh at him.

So, either way, a silver lining.

IF HARRIS WINS: Yay we dodged the fascism!!!

IF TRUMP WINS: Yay we can mock Allan Lichtman!!

Heading off to the IUS meeting in Reston this weekend. If you are a junior civmil person and want to chat, let me know. Social media is a good icebreaker, and most senior scholars want to meet emerging scholars as they are the ones doing all of the cool stuff CivMilSky

CivMilSky who's going to be at IUS in Reston this weekend?

On this biography of GOP possible speakership... Steve Scalise - David Duke = ? ; like how much less baggage are we talking? A rollerboard? A trunk? A container ship?

You know it's almost as if parties invented their nominating processes to maximize the chances of winning general elections
