As the face of the “progressive prosecutor” movement steamrolls to a 3rd term, let me be the millionth person to note that when that movement loses elections it’s billed in national media as a crisis for the left, while the movement’s high points, of which there have been many, are largely ignored.

California folks: if you have a Prop 50 mail-in ballot but haven't mailed it in yet, do it today. Please. I am begging you. It's literally the only question on the ballot and it'll take you like 30 seconds to fill out. Redistricting only happens if enough people vote for it by next Tuesday. #yeson50

RedwoodGirl @redwoodgirl.bsky.social · 19d

California folks, for the love of all the gods and goddesses you revere, MAIL IN YOUR PROP 50 BALLOT TODAY. It's really easy: there's only one question! I recommend you vote YES on 50, then mail the ballot in, no postage required. #yeson50

There was a day and an age when being so clueless would prevent one from getting even a clerkship, much less a fed prosecutor job.

That Cuomo could keep repeating racist, Islamophobic tropes, and that Mamdani had to answer idiotic questions about "intifadas," reveals how deeply ossified the Democratic party--and media--is and how corrupted by billionaires, consultants, and entrenched communities.

Just read that in 1985, Reagan threatened to rescind Johnson’s affirmative action EO. He didn’t, in part bc it seems companies pushed back, saying they’d advance its goals anyway.

Trump did rescind it, to no opposition at all.

Now look at Reagan’s 60/40 win map—a true mandate. Yet corps resisted.
