We need to bring civic virtue back so people stop thinking all politics should exist in a state of Total War forever and Dems aren't doing their job unless they personally vault over the aisle in the middle of a session of Congress with daggers to gut their GOP colleagues like fish.

It's actually a bad thing if we lose a shared agreement about objective reality. You can't fight a pandemic without it. You can't hold politicians accountable without it. You can't even hold a police officer accountable without it.

Scholars yn the humanityes who are at prestigious institutions and who have clout and reache sholde be usinge everye single minute of their tyme to protecte programs at less prestigious institutions. Ther sholde be a moratorium on researche until the futures of their fieldes are safe.

I live in Oregon where we have six congressional reps, five Democrats and one Republican. The Democratic state legislature could easily redistrict and divide the one GOP district so that no Republican could get elected in the future. Oregon Republicans would lose their voice in Congress.

Platner declines to debate? How authentic

David Costello@davidcostello.bsky.social

I understand the Platner campaign’s logic in withdrawing from the 5 scheduled debates, yet this move cuts short important policy discussions and conversations and shortchanges Maine voters, most of whom haven’t fully focused on June’s primary election. I hope he’ll reconsider #MEpolitics

I’ll leave for later why reporters didn’t fact-check - there’s an ugly story there too. But the urgent issue is, Platner would be crushed in the general. It's best to lance the boil now. Here’s the document, sourced and Wikipedia-ready. You should read it. The NRSC sure will. 11/

A few weeks ago, Californians were saying "Becerra is the best candidate but his polling is so low!" Come on Maine. Reject the false dilemma.

Add "we need to get money out of politics/let's flood this Maine senate race with cash to push the more qualified candidate out of the race" to the ever growing list of Berner leftist hypocrisies.

This will sound very nerdy, but when I was a kid, I revered the Supreme Court. If they could rule unanimously against segregation in 1954—when the two other branches of government would *never* have been brave enough—I thought they're the lone voice of good. That is all trashed now. They're garbage.

Let’s be clear. The federal government is arresting fmr FBI Director James Comey for posting a picture of sea shells spelling out “86 47.” The party who insisted on “free speech” is now the party of cancel culture. I was fired for my words about Charlie Kirk. Comey is being charged for his speech.
