LOL at him thinking Jack Dorsey gives a shit about his feelings.- Where Do Democrats Go From Here
Yes, absolutely agree. Love having my president chosen this groupthink.- 2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]
- Oregon legalizes Psilocybin - decrims all drugs
Yes, this is is right, but it’s complicated. SF and LA are nice places to be homeless because the weather is great. People hear that treatment centers are plentiful, which also makes it a destination for people with addictions. And finally, a la South Park, they do get bussed in from other cities. The lack of criminal prosecution certainly has an impact of the open air drug use here; I feel like every time a reporter asks a junkie why they aren’t shooting up in Oakland or San Mateo county, they respond, “Because I’d get arrested!”. But it’s certainly not clear that criminal prosecution would help the situation. If you’re curious about the situation, Google “Chesa Boudin”. Oregon, on the other hand, is very different.- 2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]
It is. 15 years ago they were all about freedom fries and Reaganomics. Now the Iraq invasion and free markets are a farce. But socialism is still evil.- Donald Trump 2020
There’s no way you weren’t a “freedom fries” guy 17 years ago.- 2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]

I just took a spin and they’ve also embraced draft dodging (my favorite sentiment is how they are glad he dodged Vietnam so he could live to save the nation).- The Moral Repugnance of Politics in America
Yes, they will be remembered as some of the most effective people to hold their respective leadership positions - particularly Pelosi in her control of the Caucus during the House ACA vote- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Yes, Pontchartain is a good choice. The Hot Tin is opened as a Jack Rose pop up right now (the restaurant downstairs). The Chloe, a hotel from the Leblanc + Smith group (Sylvain, Barrel Proof, Meauxbar RIP), opens this week.- The Moral Repugnance of Politics in America
I disagree. Money, through whatever form it flows, will buy influence. Its obviously a problem, but I don’t think it’s governable. As for examples of the value of experience? Mitch McConnell. Nancy Pelosi. Chuck Schumer. I used to work on the Hill (both Senate and House) and can attest to the value of experience: experienced legislators build strong brands and in turn attract top staff talent and build high performing offices. Ted Kennedy, for example, was probably the most lucrative Democratic office in the 2000s. And it takes time to ascend through the party: consider the 20 year or so it took John Boehner to ascend to power. His tenure served his district, and Ohio, well. Oh, and sometimes one can actually learn be an effective legislator - see Robert Byrd.- Donald Trump 2020
Yeah, the NYT had a great article on this a few months ago. It wasn’t groundbreaking reporting, just succinctly captured why I have been repulsed by the conservative movement for my entire twenty years of politics consciousness: insular white people who experience the complex world and are frightened by it, and because they view the world as a zero-sum game they view any push for change as an attack on their community. So they fight back, but they are just “defending their values” while anyone else is just a social agitator set on destroying America.- Why I voted the way I did
In San Francisco and voted straight D. Living in Texas my vote never mattered - really wish I were there this year to contribute. Big measures here were Prop 15 (repealing Prop 13 for commercial - for), Prop 22 (keeping Uber drivers independent contractors - for) and locally Prop H (streamlining commercial permitting - absolutely for).- Things seem to be going quite well for Joe Biden
We need this to be this week’s SNL cold opener, with Danny Devito as deranged Giuliani. How do we get Lorne Michaels on the horn?- Formerly DT: COVID-19 - Featuring Lots of Politics, now CR because political talk not going away
Because it’s really, really nice. -Dude who moved from TX to the Bay a few years ago.- The Trump + Covid thread
