Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

so currently defectors are:
Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

It's worth noting here that Steve Bannon has no policy prescriptions. He's not saying to lower prices or change foreign policy or any of that. He's saying they need to seize the state.

I asked this before over at The Old Place and the answers delighted me. So again:
Who is an artist you admire who you suspect would not like you if they met you personally?
I think Peter Dinklage is fantastic. I would absolutely get on his last nerve. He'd be looking for the door while we spoke.

Look, you can kick all the trans people out of a sport if that's what you want to do.
The catch is that doing so requires regulating gender.
The catch to the catch is that, since no trans people are in your sport today, you are regulating cis women's gender!

The main takeaway from tonight after moderates and Mamdani won: The Democratic Party is and always will be a messy coalition. In the 1900s, it had segregationists and New Deal Liberals. In Obama's era, it had Ted Kennedy and pro-gun anti-abortion Democrats. It is and always be a coalition.

I don't know if everyone on the outside realizes this but working in corporate America today is just like this. Replace these AI tracks with whatever the fuck dumb tool that's supposed to magically make the hard work go away. Every conversation. People have lost their minds.
