People hate AOC bc her enormous popularity validates the idea that participating in electoral politics can grow the socialist movement. She also reveals the compromises winning power entails. Some people wanna go back to being a tiny club that’s right all the time. They’re wrong.
My take on why Roberts and Kav have been more extremist lately is pretty simple. Those two were legit afraid of retribution if they killed Roe, and Alito was like “Dems ain’t gonna do shit.” And Alito was right. So now those two realize NOBODY is going to stop them.
A great summary of recent issues with insurance & climate change by @kenny_stancil. We tend to talk about insurance as an issue limited to certain coastal states, but this is clearly a national issue now therevolvingdoorproject.org/the-u-s-midwes…
Unbelievable that Supreme Court justices who see forgiving student loans, mandating vaccines, and regulating climate change as a slippery slope toward tyranny were not clear-eyed on questions of whether a president could execute citizens or stage a coup without being prosecuted.

1. I have to be honest about something: I'm really starting to hate writing about anything related to Israel or Gaza. I feel like I can't write authentically about this latest…
The assassination of political rivals as an official act.

@SamAdlerBell Relatedly, it’s going to be harder and harder to persuade people there is real antisemitism that is a genuine problem to be addressed. And actual antisemites will figure that out and flourish in that zone. Already seeing it actually.
Cops didn’t do a thing as these folks marched through my backyard yelling “Jews will not replace us” on UVA’s campus a few years ago. Free speech they said.
When it's an armed shooter, police cower outside with their armor & their tanks & their military weapons & let kids inside die.
But cracking the heads of some unarmed undergrads? Fuck yeah they're into that.
Big news to hit inboxes, major eyeball emoji situation: @RepRaskin is testifying May 1 before the @SenWhitehouse-led Senate Budget Committee, likely on the House's now-defunct investigation into Big Oil's climate misinformation campaign
There is more courage in these three paragraphs written by a 14-year-old Palestinian girl than what, like, 98% of American politicans have been able to muster thenation.com/article/world/…
Sen. Sanders’ family was killed in the Holocaust. He dedicates his every moment to realizing tikkun olam.
His commitment to protecting innocents in Gaza stems FROM his Jewish values.
He and many other Jewish leaders deserve better than to be treated this way. This is shameful.

We are going to have a "hotter than normal" summer. (Actually, it's going to be hotter than normal every summer for the indefinite future.)
We still don't have heat protections (water, shade, breaks) in place for workers.
FL just banned local heat protections.
Blackouts could trigger an extreme heat Katrina: A study last year estimated that if power went out in Phoenix for two days during a heat wave, 789,600 people would require emergency department care and 12,800 people would die.

A new legal theory suggests that oil companies could be taken to court for "climate homicide" in the United States. A paper argues that fossil fuel companies have been…
