I run mountain trails and think about politics. Dogs and cats. Interior design and David Lynch films. Figure skating. I work in emergency medicine. Colorado is my home.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

Nothing would make Biden look as young and dynamic as dragging our Israel/Palestine diplomatic positions into the 21st century (and the realm of reality)

This week SCOTUS killed Chevron deference, gave Trump total immunity, and Trump was credibly tied to Epstein, and it seems to me if your campaign somehow seriously can't find a way to then change the topic of conversation in the newspapers or stop your party panicking, what are we doing here exactly

I've heard suggestions that Biden's debate performance has given a few Democrats the idea that now is the time to settle some personal beefs with Biden and his team. Which makes sense given what I know about Democrats

Important to realize as we try to retain civility on Bluesky that all the stuff we say to each other will have literally zero impact on whether Biden bows out or not, we’re just hanging around yapping about politics like a bunch of old Greek guys at a sidewalk cafe, no need to take it personally

also Trump's supporters have no idea what he's saying half the time! no one does! there's no need to overthink this. Trump is popular because he channels vibes-based grievances and wants to punish those groups who his supporters feel have wronged them. That's it.

yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler

Zoning should be used for separating obvious nuisances (meaning the technical legal term and examples being toxic waste, etc) from where people live. Not for preventing housing construction, or for preventing commercial activity in residential areas.

That's what I mean though! A party dependent on the nation's most racist and bigoted voters elevates non-whites into leadership and then sees the bigots flee to a far-right party instead (despite the fact the non-white leaders are hardliners) bsky.app/profile/prin...

In the relative global context of things I don’t care much one way or the other about whether Biden has suffered cognitive decline (I think he has). Why? Because for me, the answer to that question doesn’t change the political calculus much.

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders.

🚨A great summary of Tory net zero sceptics getting the boot in the UK elections from my colleague Carlton Reid. Also: why can't the media talk about the progressive Green party, which won four seats, while it lavishes attention on the aggressively xenophobic Reform party, which won four seats?

This is likely true but I’d be surprised if this is the reason they’re making mistakes (I can’t speak for the Chicago DSA twitter account, obviously)
