like, there are some foods for which a mound of crap works — i love a falafel pita stuffed with pickles and salads and sauces — but i think most things benefit from keeping it simple. — PolitiTweet.org

yes! i have really come to appreciate the pizza with at most two toppings. — PolitiTweet.org

oh our affable, fun-loving, up for anything (did you hear he wants to learn how to nae nae?) moderate Republican governor isn’t just leaving the state to campaign, he’s leaving it specifically to campaign for election-denying extremists — PolitiTweet.org

(and of course the whole shebang died before dawn on April 12, 1861. the republic that emerged out of the wreckage was not the one that was ratified in 1788) — PolitiTweet.org

Another way to put this is that “The Founder’s Republic” was functionally dead by about 1824. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the other thing. Every appeal to the Framers on the question of institutional design fails to grapple with the fact that they did not anticipate national, organized political parties, whose emergence fundamentally reshaped the way the system worked. — PolitiTweet.org

(Madison also noted — or rather he says he noted — that the main dividing interest between the states was the extent of slavery within them.) — PolitiTweet.org

The answer — as no less than James Madison observed at the constituency convention — is that there are no size-based interests and that the whole notion of “state interests” is misguided. What matters are the interests of the individuals and groups and factions within each state. — PolitiTweet.org

b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie

And the thing is, no one ever specifies what interests small states have as small states, or large states as large states, or what entitles a person to greater representation because they live in a less densely populated area. — PolitiTweet.org

absolute guarantee that the one factoid that has been driven into this person’s head since they were in school is that “small states” are powerless. it is natural, then, that she would feel powerless. — PolitiTweet.org
