Like I was saying, their version of negotiation is pumping rounds into the hostage
Even if public opinion moves to side with Dems after people see their insurance premiums go up, i’m not sure it’ll provide leverage to end the shutdown. Republicans are hostage negotiators who also want to see the hostage dead.

Opinion | Republicans were soundly defeated across the country in last week’s elections. So why does it feel like they still have an electoral mandate?

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Great thread on why Frey keeps winning even with RCV
I am still so mad about this that I broke out the colored pencils, so I could do a little RCV explainer. Something is seriously wrong with me that this is what I am doing with my Saturday night, but here goes (a thread):
We wouldn’t need center left orgs if we had progressive electeds and orgs that took seriously the shape of our electorate, how RCV actually works, & were serious about beating Jacob. Either they don’t understand how the shape of our electorate plays out in RCV or they don’t care about beating him.

They sell like a dozen versions of Hane’s white tees at Target
"I nearly stopped believing that I would ever find a perfect white tee I could live with. But last spring I walked into the American Dream mall in New Jersey and came out with a dream fulfilled."

The Uniqlo Crew Neck T-Shirt might look unremarkable. But the details make it my favorite tee of all time.

There’s a simpler explanation: she just wants to keep her job after next year
Want a clear indication that Donald Trump's health is abysmal? Want an insider info signal that his medical prognosis is extremely poor?
Here it is: MTG is massively toning down her rhetoric and runnin' to the middle. She's either vying to be named the next VP or running for president in 2028.

MTG: "I'm trying to lead by example to talk to everyone in kindness. We don't all have to agree but that's being an American. And thank goodness for that. Our freedom of speech, our 1A rights, allows us to do that. My personal belief is that I need to set an example by speaking nicely to everyone."

These remarks raise new questions about Biden’s cognitive fitness
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

Agreed there re: rallying. but it's definitely worse with RCV because candidates don't want to clash with similar people for fear of losing second position with their supporters. Given the lack/skew of media coverage, voters candidates to give them some clash. I see this every cycle.

Stop threatening us with a good time
