It is unambiguously good, for Germany and Europe, that the CDU did a 180Β° turn on fiscal policy and broke its election promises even before day 1 of formal coalition talks. Not sure how its voters will take it, but voters overakk were ahead of the conservatives on debt for a while now.

You know? I still find it remarkably easy to remain patriotic throughout this administration.
Trump and the MAGA crowd are a repudiation of every single civic ideal that the United States is meant to representβand I see no reason to stop believing in those ideals because of them.

Elon Musk and Nancy Mace think they are going to scare me and silence me with a censure. They donβt want opposition as they raid the social safety net. Democrats need to fight harder, not retreat. Iβm not backing down folks, Iβm from Long Beach.

There are lots of NGOs that use the NH primary to get candidates to commit on video to their goals. In 2008/2012/2016 I kept seeing activists use town halls to get Rs on record that they would support PEPFAR. Used to think "why ask that, who's against it?" And now we know!

And is usually run by grown-ups.

I hope folks remember that the statute of limitations is long, Dems will regain power, and Merrick Garland is seen as a clear failure in our party. Act accordingly.

The J6 pardon story is not going to go away. Emboldened violent lunatics have been given a license to commit crimes on behalf of the state. This will get worse.

4 years ago a mob incited by Donald Trump attacked the Capitol to overturn the election.
Now, Trump wants to pardon these insurrectionists.
In 2023, I visited these prisoners at the DC jail on behalf of the Dems on the Oversight Committee. Marjorie Taylor Greene was there.
Here's what happened: π§΅
