So we're spending more stopping Russian soldiers from *murdering Ukrainians* than it would have cost to erect a new physical barrier that would have failed to stop drug smuggling and only marginally deterred desperate migrants who mean us no harm? — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump Jr. @DonaldJTrumpJr

In less than a year we have spent more than 25 times what Trump’s border wall would have cost protecting Ukraine’s border.

Fascinating thread on pre-Musk Twitter. Really underscores how much the *old Twitter was a relative paragon of responsibility* takes in the media were actually anti-Musk mood affiliation more than rigorous analysis. — PolitiTweet.org

@Cv4226 Of course. Fortunately it's rare to see people quoted in the press expressing that it's good to denigrate trans people for sharing their experiences. We should absolutely criticize such cruelty when encountering it — PolitiTweet.org

People are living in tent cities all over the Bay Area and some of the most academically accomplished people in the region decided on this as their focus? It's so aggressively ridiculous. — PolitiTweet.org

@SamRochadotcom @isisvande @ChrisSchaef My read of the literature on authoritarian personality types is that raising the salience of race as an identity marker is disastrous for everyone and especially bad for racial minorities. But much of the left is intent on a *raise the salience* strategy — PolitiTweet.org

@SamRochadotcom @isisvande @ChrisSchaef An outstanding question that divides Americans but is seldom discussed head on: is social equality among races better enhanced by raising or lowering the salience of race as an identity marker? — PolitiTweet.org

@SamRochadotcom @isisvande @ChrisSchaef As well, it seems like to me that the optimal strategies for pursuing social equality in 1964 and 2024 are very different. That said, if the identitarian essentialist faction of the left embraced all the tenets of MLK's beloved community that would be a huge improvement. — PolitiTweet.org
