Signing his resignation letter “Semper Fi” seems an especially perverse touch. Fidelity to self, not service–not the Marines’ motto. https://t.co/SbSY3DrZoV

The idea that giving cash to parents, including single parents, whether or not they work won’t increase the number of single moms seems ….crazy. Hard to sell that as pro-marriage policy. https://t.co/b3tkH94yUe

Dems lead most Senate races but margins are small. A big GOP Senate gain–like 8 seats–seems possible, no? I’ve always doubted that Tester or Baldwin would lose, but these margins are eminently surmountable. https://t.co/hVk1TEP1pM

Janet Yellen’s “vision”: A bunch of little subsidy programs for college, housing, child care, etc. Some lower drug prices, taxes on the rich and a no-work dole. This seems like pre-Clinton, Carter era vision–unsatisfying at the time, unsatisfying now. https://t.co/5CedPJyx6o

Lankford negotiated a bogus, fake-tough bill that allowed Biden, Schumer and Dems to try to neutralize what is legitimately the GOPs strongest 2024 issue. How big of a deluded fuck-up do you have to make to NOT be rewarded with a GOP leadership position? https://t.co/fGspdgc9Zi

Also: why is it so hard for Dems, including Biden, to swallow HR2, Fetterman style? Seems less radical than swallowing Clinton’s welfare reform in 1996. If they did they’d win big and could Build Back Better to heart’s content. https://t.co/xSngksiKFR

Biden says he set a goal “that half of all new cars and trucks sold in 2030 would be zero-emissions.” He now says “we’ll meet my goal.” But he’s relaxed rules so the EV sales ramp-up comes “only after 2030.” How will he meet his goal? He won’t, that’s how https://t.co/V7ylMQ5Qd8
