As long as we're collectively thinking back to implications of #HurricaneKatrina 20 year out -- it's still wild to me that 2010 census and 2011 reapportionment revealed an entire congressional district of people were displaced from NOLA to Texas. 🗺️ #PoliSky #PoliSciSky

Delighted to share that my work with @profteigen.bsky.social is out!

We test the often touted assumption/claim that people who live near military bases in the US will be more conservative/Republican. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, we find NO link.

So why has this myth persisted? 1/

As an Iowan, my definition of Midwest is Iowa, states that border Iowa, and (if I’m feeling permissive) states that border two states that border Iowa.
According to the US Census, roughly a quarter of all Americans believe geography is more of a vibe, man.

Jose Barco, a decorated U.S. Army veteran once based out of Fort Carson who served 2 tours in Iraq, was taken into custody last month by ICE because his citizenship papers, which were supposed to be processed while he was in the Army, were lost.

As a tenured prof @ a private institution, I believe I have an obligation to speak out on issues that my colleagues at other institutions or in more tenuous positions cannot.

If you have privilege & protections, use that to preserve our rights and freedoms. 1/

There has been a lot of confusion over what the president can(not) do with the military. And lots of misunderstanding about what Posse Comitatus actually means. We explain it all in this @goodauth.bsky.social piece.

The U.S. president has broad discretion on military matters.
The president-elect's proposed uses of the military on U.S. soil could draw the armed forces into partisan disputes.

Look on the bright side: either we preserve our liberal, democratic form of government or Allan Lichtman is embarrassingly wrong and we all get to laugh at him.

So, either way, a silver lining.
