I’m not saying this is the only reason for the difference between Fetterman and Shapiro, but analysis that misses this is mind-numbing: Mastriano spent $2M on TV ads — aka functionally nothing in a large state like PA. Shapiro spent $45M. Mastriano didn’t show up for the fight.

Hey @amandalitman, think this is true across the country too?

When pro-choice voters turn out their vote, pro-choice candidates get elected. Here in Minnesota, we are strong, we are many, and we are coming for the majority.

Since SCOTUS is going to overturn #RoeVWade I think this one from George Carlin is appropriate. “They’re anti-women”

Some elites felt like their elite circles moved left on language regarding race and gender, and they did not like it, so they declared that the entire country, all of politics, had veered dramatically left, with some even supporting state crackdowns on speech to try to stop it.

To be clear, the phenomenon I’m referring to is mostly happening outside of Washington - in places like academia, medicine, media, and publishing. It’s what’s happening in those places that has alienated many people who used to feel at home on the left.

Elon Musk told the United Nations he would give them $6 billion to end world hunger if they showed him a detailed plan of how they would use the money. They called his bluff and gave him their plan— and then they never got the money. Now he’s buying Twitter for $45 billion.

Breaking: there are many more "exceptional" students than there are spots at elite universities. Upper middle class WASPs convinced this is a sign of oppression.

If Disney was interested in staying “out of all this” maybe they shouldn’t have donated 300K to the supporters of this bill in the last two years. Complicity in a regressive Republican agenda is not “neutrality”

Disney’s biggest mistake was listening to outlets like Vox and letting activists within the company overrule Bob Chapek who, wisely, tried to keep Disney out of all this.

Listening to a recent Elon interview, it's a good case study of why @karaswisher a great interviewer of tech ppl. Premise of most questions in most interviews: "You're clearly so so smart, tell us about xyz" vs Kara's questions: "You're just a person in a crazy position. WTF?"

We just thought we'd share the first few minutes of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's 2019 inauguration speech.

Zelensky, as determined and impressive as ever, in a new video: “It was a sunny day in Kyiv today while the occupants tried to ruin us. But also it was the first day of the life of a little girl who was born in the Kyiv metro.”
