Democrats need to state that if this is done, they will have no choice but to turn Trump and his subordinates over to international tribunals for war crimes prosecutions, if Trump makes it impossible to prosecute them domestically. Make subordinates accepting pardons understand the consequences.

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

Krugman is a liberal economist but even still 10 years ago I couldn't imagine him calling for expropriation and (temporary) nationalization of a major company. What stage of capitalism is this? paulkrugman.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...

They don't have the guys to stop us

I don't actually dispute this but I think in a world run by algorithms, "revealed preferences" don't tell us as much about people's actual preferences as the idea implies.

Seizing the passport, phones, and computer of an opposition lawmaker is straight-up authoritarianism. There is no other way to describe it. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Strap in, folks. I think we are in fact doing some version of 1642 in January

Stadium is about 90% filled. Eagles fans’ dedication to travel is impressive.

there's something so deranged about the idea that a "high trust" society is one that can decide to arbitrarily exclude you on the basis of identity

I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

Eagles 🤝 Phillies Come on man, our playoff ambitions are gonna run headfirst into the rich ass LA team

Fascism is not new, in a sense, it is old: fascism is the emergence of our old, pre-liberal, pre-enlightenment emotional gestures, bubbling through the cracks of modern society: suspicion of outsiders, the desire for uniformity, for a strong leader, for conquest of the out-group.

BOHM. FRANZKE.

For the first time in 13 years of collecting the data, the CBRE has found there are now more tech workers in New York than San Francisco. This seems to have been driven by AI in two ways; AI-driven layoffs in SF and hiring for AI jobs in Finance in NY. AI giveth and AI taketh away.

I knew Arraez as a player, of course, but rarely heard him speak until he came east. I like him. He's a serious man with a smile on his face. He's intelligent, quick to necessarily let the last game go, and however much fun he's having you know he's made of steel.

Days until kickoff 26. Saquon Barkley (RB, 2024- ) In debut Eagles season, joined 2K Yards Club (2,005), rushed for team record 255 yards in a game, and won Super Bowl LIX. Went viral for incredible reverse leapfrog over Jaguars’ Jarrian Jones.

ICYMI, over the past two weeks, English-language Wikipedia editors have engaged in a successful effort to change the first paragraph of the Republican Party entry to reflect its current status as a "neo-nationalist" political party. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republi...

"jeffrey epstein may have introduced cami clark [dario's wife] to SBF which faciliated antropic's series b getting off the ground" i'm going fucking insane

I realize this is a careful dance and involves a lot of complicating factors, but the American aviation system cannot function if we can’t find a way to keep New York’s airports operational on any summer afternoon.

There hasn’t been a single departure from LGA in 15 minutes 🙃🙃🙃

the rewards of masculinity are kept from you so you can be dared or coerced or compelled to go to war or work in the mines to enrich the men with more status! You stupid fuck! You dumb idiot!

Terrible as all this would be, potential US capital return to Philadelphia got me going 😆

Just released a new project: Radial, a coding-agent orchestrator for atproto. It's a bit like a team issue tracker where you run your own agents with a system to capture what your agents learn into durable, reviewable team memory. www.disnetdev.com/blog/introdu...

Jalen Carter and the Eagles agree to a contract extension, per Adam Schefter. The 4 year/$152M extension ($106M guaranteed) makes Carter the highest paid DT in NFL history. Carter is now signed through the 2031 season. The Eagles drafted him ninth overall in 2023 out of Georgia.

All polling now is like: TRUMP APPROVAL: -53 GENERIC BALLOT: D+0.7

New w @pamherd.bsky.social: Mamdani just announced PIT Crew — an NYC tech unit that will build digital public products.

Philly booing everyone not a Phillie for the Derby rules

so, I went semi-offline for half a day and came back to find four stories any one of which could have been a weeks-long banner headline story in the before times.

I haven’t seen so many ineffective crosses in Mexico since Hernán Cortés couldn’t convert the Aztecs in 1519

That's not a red card worthy foul bro But apparently nothing means anything now and FIFA doesn't enforce red card suspensions. So what's the point of giving these lmao

Slaughter belongs in the anti-canon, a decision so egregiously wrong it has zero precedential value and is self-discrediting. It is not a plausible reading of a constitutional ambiguity, it is constitutionalizing the structure of an autocracy.

to repeat a point, the underlying political theory of the unitary executive is the president as tribune — an instantiation of the sovereign will of the people. it is a Bonapartist vision of the executive and it cashes out in the idea that the executive branch must follow the president's will.

Franzke said he doesn't think he's seen a catch like that since Ken Griffey, Jr.; Stocker said it's the greatest he's ever seen; Wheeler said it's the greatest he's seen in person; Soto even spoke eloquently about how great it was.

Here's what I got

Philly is up 14-8 against division archival Washington. Close enough, welcome back Eagles
