"It makes sense that you'd get a caricatured version of Ronald Reagan at this stage—a b-list actor to a b-list reality show person. You see the line drawn and how that then becomes an assault on the political imagination." Eddie Glaude and Tim Miller on America’s unserious politics.

"Doesn't the DOJ have bigger fish to fry? Drug trafficking, sex trafficking, all of these things. And instead of focusing on these big problems, we're focused on E. Jean Carroll." Lis Smith and @timmiller.bsky.social on outrage over Trump using the DOJ to re-victimize one of his enemies.

 "Black and brown Tennesseans make up 25% of the population. Now, every single one of Tennessee's nine congressional districts is majority white." @brotherjones.bsky.social & @timmiller.bsky.social on whether a state that strips its biggest cities of real representation can call itself a democracy.

"This is jaw-dropping as a former prosecutor for 20 years. I just cannot fathom any prosecutor doing this." Mary McCord on the grand jury misconduct so serious that prosecutors dropped the case against protesters outside an ICE facility in Illinois.

Mike Johnson on Democrats not trusting Bill Pulte: "The Democrats wouldn't trust Jesus…They are playing political games…The Democrats are not willing to do anything…because they want to make life hard for the president."

Mullin: "If we didn't think courts were politicized, then I would probably be able to answer that... [Courts] use their bench for their political opinion, not just the rule of law." ... Murphy: "If you're a Republic or a Democrat on this committee, you should be really, really freaked out."

"As someone who's more moderate, how do you guys think about attentional politics?" @lauren-egan.bsky.social spoke with Jamie Ager and Bobby Pulido about how they're breaking through in the modern information enviornment while running in red districts.

"They said it wouldn't happen. They said it was to be illegal, but we're gonna pull it off anyway." The Trio is coming to San Diego, Wednesday, May 20! See @samsteindc.bsky.social, @willsommer.bsky.social and @timmiller.bsky.social live for the first time together.

Sen. Booker: "Even our own State Department personnel that I've talked to are saying we're less prepared for a global outbreak than we were before." Rubio: "I don't agree with that assessment. I don't know who told you that at the State Department."

Oz on Trump's medical exams: "If you look at these records, they're spectacular…Many of you get to see him almost every day. That amount of energy and that amount of mental acuity does not exist in a vacuum. You have to have a vessel to carry it."

High performance is sold everywhere. Who's delivering it? Passive House principles without data analysis go unchecked. Are those principles a marketing tool or a design tool? #architecture #smarthomes

Francesca Albanese is asked about Nicholas Kristof's article in the NYT detailing the sexual abuse of Palestinians in Israeli prisons, & she rightly points out this information was already widely available

War Goes Home To Russia... "They block everything for us, but the drones keep flying" - residents of Moscow and the Moscow region are getting used to the "action" brought to them by the bunker dictator Russians note that only they suffer from internet […] [Original post on mstdn.social]

Resistance grows with every attempt to quiet us. They can change the rules, but they cannot change our resolve. When we are told to back down, we push forward even harder. This is how real change begins and how victories are earned.

Me: How can female staffers feel safe reporting sexual harassment: Mike Johnson: I mean, we we are looking at every potential avenue to tighten up the rules.... You may know this, I have two daughters who work on Capitol Hill, on committee staffs. Okay, very serious to me.
