@ijbailey Yes. Constrain police unions to negotiating salary and benefits, hire new officers in a Teach for America like gambit, shift resources to murder solving, end the drug war, and more. There's no shortage of ideas. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey What do you do when teachers unions go out of their way to ensure reform isn't possible even when a reformist-minded superintendent is hired? There are a lot of potentially constructive answers. I suspect you'd agree *defund the schools* isn't among them. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CaitlinPacific As I don't believe the SAT to be unfair I don't see the need for them to expend more resources to achieve what the SAT achieves more efficiently and I suspect more equitably — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CaitlinPacific Bowdoin only has to find 450 kids per year. If you have to find, say, 7,000 undergrads including some from low quality high schools doing it without the SAT would be much more difficult. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CaitlinPacific If you think having passed 6 AP exams tells us something useful then you think standardized tests tell us something useful. — PolitiTweet.org

"Celebrity has its uses. I can always get a seat in any restaurant." "The world can't hold me—too much ambition. I always knew it'd be like this when I was in the kitchen." A Jay Z quote and a Julia Child quote, you decide which is which. — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing makes me lose faith in a public health leader or elected official faster than reflexive deference to whatever the FDA happens to do at a given moment. — PolitiTweet.org

It's unsettling that he doesn't understand the problem is the regulatory regime that prevents us from getting cheap tests, not a failure to buy tests a year ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Given the context—countless future concerts performing the song together— "You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loved you" might just be the most brutal lyric of all time. — PolitiTweet.org

@ProofofBurden I do not support a movement, I support the protection and expansion of liberty. And you are not smug because you know the truth; you are smug because you imagine yourself to be more discerning than you are. You'd be less wrong if you were more epistemically modest and charitable. — PolitiTweet.org

As of today the FDA is no longer preventing the distribution of Pfizer's lifesaving Covid-19 treatment, as it had been for some time now. https://t.co/Nz34LrFhZ6 — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ProofofBurden I also value liberty, and by some definitions I'm a small-l libertarian. In other words, not politically neutral. But not a partisan either. Kindly cut out the snide superiority going forward. It's unearned. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ProofofBurden You aren't discerning enough to be as smug as you are. I am not a partisan. I vote for candidates from various political parties. For example, I have voted for Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger, Libertarian Gary Johnson, and Democrat Barack Obama. — PolitiTweet.org
