in case you were wondering whatever became of the us institute of peace, the once-venerable congressionally chartered think tank is now a propaganda site www.usip.org
This piece is a really good example of ‘Antisemitism as conspiracy theory to explain the world’ at work IMO. It is abundantly clear both that the author has literally no evidence whatsoever for the assertion they keep hinting at, and that they nonetheless see it as just intuitively obvious
Joe Stieb@joestieb.bsky.social · 4h agoresponsiblestatecraft.org/morocco-spai... The quincy institute is getting in on the ‘people are saying the Jews did it’ bandwagon. But don’t worry, they are just asking questions.
Nevada voters on Trump's economy: You got to decide whether you're going to pay rent or feed your family. It's getting tough out here for everyone... Everything is more expensive now since Trump has been in office.
As I am always saying, you can have whatever sorts of feelings about Chuck Schumer you want but “current Dems are the most procedurally obstructionist minority in modern history” is just a factually true statement

It's a really big deal that @cookpolitical.com has shifted #KSSEN from Solid R to Likely R @hamilton4kansas.bsky.social needs Bluesky follows!! And votes!
After Rev. Adam Hamilton's win in the Kansas Democratic Senate primary to take on GOP Sen. Roger Marshall, we shift the race into a more competitive category, from Solid to Likely Republican. Read this from @jessicataylor.bsky.social:

Ok, that’s actually pretty good. I appreciate it. Jeffries has earned support. This guy needs to mend fences.

Who cares?! He has to beat MIKE ROGERS, the actual OPPONENT now. The only victory that matters is the general election. We *already* knew ppl can beat money- look at Elon’s spending in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race.
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 9h agoAbdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
I remain convinced the only reason Obamacare wasn’t repealed in 2017 is that Collins & Murkowski were certain McCain was a yes vote.
Grudgie the Whale@grudgie.bsky.social · yesterdayEvery fucking time.
These guys are all skilled & clever lawyers. That they can’t get & do their jobs without desultory attempts to assert Donald Trump’s reality over the reality we all share outside his demented brain & narcissistic psyche shows why DOJ loses keeps losing; loser cases for an unhinged client
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 8h ago😮 Trump's nominees are the most pathetic men in the world 😮 During a hearing, Blumenthal made Trump nominees squirm by asking them who won the 2020 election -- a question they refuse to answer -- but then Schiff upped the ante by asking them *who won the 2016 election.* Here's a supercut:

HUGE: Last night, Democrats in Michigan cast nearly 600,000 MORE ballots than Republicans in the state’s gubernatorial primary elections. Democrats have momentum. Onward to November!
Yeah, no. This is not why Kevin Warsh is doing what he’s doing, & we don’t need to pretend that it is. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cronan, you're already on the district court. Who won the 2020 election? CRONAN: Joseph Biden received the majority of electoral votes B: You have nothing to lose. You have a lifetime appointment, and yet you're unwilling to state the simple fact that Biden won the 2020 election

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoEvery single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents
No it’s not, he’s a member of the Republican caucus & is unfit to serve
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayRAJU: Sen. Moreno is calling for Max Miller to resign. Do you side w/Moreno? THUNE: It's a family matter &, um, I don't have any observations beyond that Q: If a member of Congress is facing domestic abuse allegations, should they continue to serve? T: It's a House matter. It's a family issue too
Talking about domestic abuse like it's only a family matter is exactly how abusers talk. Now I'm wondering if Thune has any "family matters" in his closet.
The Republican party of domestic abuse!

Like it or not, Francesca Hong’s answer to the Thanksgiving question broke through. It was a bad answer by an ill-prepared candidate, and it marks a troubling sign of things to come. Wisconsin Democrats have one week to sort this out.
Republicans keep laughing about affordability but young people understand that what’s happening right now isn’t normal. I live by myself in a small apartment, I just paid $300 for my monthly electricity bill. The highest I paid under Biden was $60.
holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!
Haley Stevens was out with a gracious concession and a commitment to support Abdul El-Sayed within about one hour of the AP call in her race. If she can buck up first thing in the morning, everyone else can. That’s actual political leadership.
post malone ergo propter malone@proptermalone.bsky.social · 14h agoI meant to post this last night but if you’re mad about any of the primary results you got 24 hours to bleed, try not to say anything you’ll regret in 48, and then it’s Blue No Matter Who.
