The WNBA has never had a trans woman play in the league’s 30-year history and now the right and other anti-trans activists are hammering the league over something that has never been an issue, proving once again it isn’t about protection but exhibiting cruelty toward trans people.

The DSA absolutely does not have a strong election winning record. But the Democratic establishment has such a bad record that people are at the “fuck it, try something different” stage.

Oliver Willis@owillis.bsky.social

The Democratic people who lost the House, Senate and 4 elections to Trump and George W Bush seem to be having a hard time convincing Democratic voters that they know how to win elections and should be deferred to.

kind of distressing to see that most zionists seem to view "being muslim" as disqualifying you from any participation in american life. no idea how it got this bad for them

We don't ask a lot of our trillionaires, but I think it's fair to demand that their products do not turn into uncontrollable missiles that can randomly kill us while we stand in our own houses.

A decade ago, analysts were calling Spain a cautionary tale. Too much solar, too fast! Today, Spain is rapidly on its way to having the cheapest power in Europe. Maybe this time, solar naysayers will learn... haha, jk, they'll just move the goalposts.

janrosenow.substack.comSpain just became one of Europe's cheapest power markets. Here is how.How wind and solar quietly pushed gas off the margin, and the wholesale price followed.

Well. Not every day you sit down, drink your coffee, and watch live as the American Post-World War II order comes to a crashing, disastrous end. Giving off real British leaving Hong Kong ceremony vibes. Absolutely surreal.

Is it legal for Trump to order a government agency to hand him a huge pile of taxpayer money? Note that the White House is directly discussing this with DOJ!

It’s hard not to see Vance’s criticism of the Pope’s theological bona fides as just silly hubris. But I also see it as a stress test of sorts — can they manipulate sentiment against a pontiff. Not for Trump’s interests. More likely for Thiel’s.

"The function is not primarily to harm the targeted group, though that harm is real and intentional. The primary function is to test the solidarity of potential opposition coalitions, to find and exploit the fracture lines, and to establish a precedent..."

You gotta appreciate the hubris and delusion of someone like JD Vance lecturing the Pope on faith right before releasing a book about his conversion to Catholicism. Just living in another world, unafraid of being wrong or looking like an idiot.

The massive Orban defeat should prompt Dems to align themselves more firmly with anti-fascist and pro-democracy forces abroad. There's a powerful link to be drawn between the celebrations in Budapest and the confrontations with ICE in Minneapolis. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2090...

the levels of elite impunity we are seeing now and the levels of war crimes we are seeing now are two aspects of the same path of historical development. right now they see war as our problem (and their investment opportunity). it is world historically important that we make war their problem again

I was proud to stand with @sanders.senate.gov & endorse candidates who stood against war, against big money, and for justice. I lost twice before I won, including an anti-Iraq war campaign, and Bernie lost 4 times before he won. In the long run, principles matter.

Livonia police have done more than most Michigan departments to show how law enforcement can aid Trump’s inhumane immigration crackdown. Since 2021, its police reported 65 immigration arrests, second-highest in state. After public blowback, those arrests fell to zero. From @kobylevin.bsky.social:

At some point, someone is going to explain to Trump that starting a war with Iran is such a ludicrously awful idea that even George W. Bush didn’t get tricked into it.

In 2020, when he finally figured out how hard Xi had played him, he raged at China. Wonder if he’s even capable of, or allowed to do that, with Netanyahu.

I was thinking about the moral depravity of Scott Simon's 22-year-old review of Fahrenheit 9/11 because of Trump's (false) claim that 100+ Iranian schoolgirls were killed by an Iranian missile. There's something deeply wrong with this country.

☀️ Jon Schwarz ☀️@schwarz.bsky.social

Long ago NPR's Scott Simon wrote this about Fahrenheit 9/11. I've always wanted to ask him how he'd feel if Iraq engaged in an unprovoked bombing of the US & his family was massacred by an errant US anti-aircraft missile. Surely he'd blame America for their deaths, to be consistent.
