Correct. And Democrats are white hot mad at the party right now.

i spent an inordinate amount of time dissecting why the media is obsessed with union voters and Trump, and why they keep getting it absolutely wrong when it comes to labor thehousered.substack.com/p/the-medias...
that is a completely reasonable position to take lol. in this case, they're using a very reputable firm and have published the full methodology, which looks rock solid to me. www.documentcloud.org/documents/27...
Thank you, @revolvingdoordc.bsky.social @henryburke.bsky.social and @prospect.org
As I have always contended, "moderate" is just a cover for embedded racism, classicism, and people eager to make money off of both. There is no idea here. There is only reflexive "no."

Why not? It's a serious polling firm with a very large sample size and pretty much everything aligns with other polls we've seen. What's suspicious to you?
A quick message for Democratic candidates. Yes, I know the AI and crypto money is scary. But you can beat it if you take strong positions that align with voters and FIGHT
a poll with a sample of 1000 is going to have a very solid confidence interval and unless they've done very poor weighting those are super reliable results
The lesson Data Center Democrats will learn from this is that by embracing AI they'll become more popular
There are times when I really wish the whole "it never rains but it pours" thing wasn't so true.
Lol yes
If the point was to buy cool cars, massive failure. If the point was to make some Trump goon richer and probably get a kickback... Heyyyyyyyyyπ
TIL that slogans like "Make America Great Again" or "This Is Our Country" or "Take Back Our Country" are all slogans and songs that were very common in minstrel shows. I guess it makes sense that Trump stole βMake America Great Againβ from Ronald Reagan.

"We lost them" is less damaging to the military machine than "Iran shot down a whole bunch of our most advanced, very expensive drones." So oopsie daisy, we must have left them in the couch cushions or forgotten them with our to-go boxes on the restaurant table. Ah well, these things happen
Interesting use of the past exonerative, which is typically deployed to hide the culpability of cops and Republicans in bad things. In this case however, it's better for the powers that be to pretend the US just misplaced some expensive drones rather than admit that Iran shot them out of the sky.
Toni Braxton and the center of Tony! Toni! TonΓ©! all clearly sleeping on the job
This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.
This is to say: if you're an attorney who's hesitated to take on habeas cases because you think you lack the knowledge, or you're worried about whether you'll really help, I PROMISE you can make a difference. I'm just a dipshit with a 7-year-old laptop and a bad attitude. If I can do it, so can you.

Any time the words "venture capital" or "private equity" enter the chat, my hackles go up. But I looked at Toni's history and tbh dude seems pretty much fine? I will be operating on a "trust but verify" basis until given reason to go "flamethrower mode" www.wired.com/story/bluesk...
really appreciate the tip. life changing honestly with as much as my job requires reading the news
Monstrous: link between California's long overdue wildfire aid and a bill to fund Trump's depraved war of aggression. Congressional Repubs are talking about linking wildfire aid to a bill to pay for Trump's war, in order to attract Dem votes. Tell them: HELL NO. actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
OMG. This is why I complain on the internet! Got this rec. I checked to make sure everything was legit (no shade to the poster, but verify everything y'all). I installed it and pages that were crashing my machine 30 minutes ago now load in a split second bsky.app/profile/akam...
oh, nice! i'll try this out. so sick of this crap crashing my machine
I love how basically every website on the internet is now loaded up with so much bloat that opening a new site causes my relatively new Macbook Air to completely freeze for 5-30 seconds at a time. I can run video editing software no problem, but can't load a simple fucking news article

A concrete look at how the Trumpβs attack on the Consumer Bureau (CFPB) harms everyoneβas big tech, big bank, student loan servicers and auto lenders continue unsupervised due to Russell Voughtβs assault on our finances.
A wonderful @newyorker.com piece by E. Tammy Kim:
It's time for Democrats to stop focusing on issues that only elites care about, like unemployment and the price of gas, and start talking about things that matter to regular Americans, like Black mermaids and the genders of the characters on Paw Patrol.
Americans are already paying for this war in blood. Now, struggling under the weight of this administrationβs policies, they will pay in treasure, too. [...] Do not tell us there is no money for health care. Do not tell us there is no money for college. Do not tell us there is no money for child care. There is money. There has always been money. What we lack is leadership. What we need is the courage to seize it. For every day this Congress fails to act, Americans will payβin blood and treasureβfor a war no one debated, no one authorized, and no one can justify. Ortega Democrat for Congress
With seven U.S. servicemembers confirmed dead and crude oil futures jumping 25 percent to $115 a barrel, the campaign issued the following statement on the human and economic costs of this unjust and illegal war. Read the full statement.
