Strong piece by @padresalsa.bsky.social on how Republican cost cutting is harming state employees and reducing their effectiveness, all while spending more on outside contractors. #NHPolitics

Yes. The conservative scheme for education is a three-way split: high-priced academies for the children of the wealthy, religious instruction to brainwash the middle class, and a rump of prison-like public schools to discipline the lower class into obedience.
the other thing is that conservatives resolutely do not see the purpose of education as providing social mobility but as reifying and deepening existing inequalities of status. they are as hostile to low income students getting admission to elite institutions as they are black ones.

I've been a white guy all my life and never felt demonized for it.
JD Vance makes excuses for white nationalists: "When you demonize a guy because he's white, it's just as evil as when you demonize a guy because he's Black. When you demonize a guy because he's white ... some people will get radicalized into some very dangerous ideas."

Today, another American citizen & journalist was brutalized by Israeli settlers attacking Palestinians in the West Bank. This repeated violence & brazen impunity for attacks against Americans & Palestinians alike are unacceptable. When will Trump & Rubio DO SOMETHING?

If you would try to win by abandoning trans people (or any targeted group) you can save this “we need to win” talk; there is no “we.” I am about solidarity, and you have chosen anti-solidarity. You are not any “we” I recognize. You are the enemy I’m trying to defeat. Beating you is how my “we” wins.
New Hampshire is proud to have originated the Resident-Owned Communities movement which empowers mobile home park residents to purchase the park they live in and run it as a coop. Great housing model! If your state doesn't have ROCs yet, it should.

Some good nerd history here, I'm glad its been documented.
There shouldn't be a golf course in the middle of Washington DC. Build housing.
BREAKING: Trump administration cut down more than 500 trees on Saturday at the East Potomac Golf Course after giving less than a full-day notice, with more tree-cutting planned, so plaintiffs challenging the effort went to court seeking a TRO tonight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Remember when the centrists got mad at the left for using the phrase "toxic masculinity" as if they didn't understand perfectly well what it meant? I think about that a lot.
lmfao Andrew Tate looks like a raccoon that all the other raccoons have exiled to live alone and haunted in a failing açaí place’s recycling bin

They aren't sending their best.
Ethan Harper graduated from Harvard Law School and Andrew Ceonzo graduated George Mason University's Antonin Scalia Law School. Both were in their school's chapters of the Federalist Society. Their involvement (if any) in Sen. Schmitt's line of attack is unclear. I've reached out to both.
