Among elites the preponderance of intra-Dem infighting is about “wokeness,” but in terms of actual Biden-era politics going too far left on climate and running into the expensive gasoline buzzsaw has been a much bigger deal. (I’ve been part of the problem in terms of emphasis) — PolitiTweet.org

@davidshor @MattGrossmann But is losing so bad? What else is Sununu up to? I think this is another weird case of moderate politicians being under-ambitious. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidshor @MattGrossmann I just would like to see an actual race before I fully buy-in on this. The governors in question keep not running. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidshor @MattGrossmann Yeah but it’s also the case that Governor Larry Hogan doesn’t empower Mitch McConnell to blockage Biden judicial appointments the way Senator Susan Collins does. — PolitiTweet.org

The conceit of progressive politics is that it is challenging established ideas, which makes it incredibly odd to assert that anyone who disagrees with any of the new ways of thinking is practicing a “grift” or operating in “bad faith.” (I guess this was @SamAdlerBell’s piece) — PolitiTweet.org

The US has the fewest smokers in the G7 but the highest number of smoking deaths? Seems odd. https://t.co/01EZzIodpq — PolitiTweet.org

@JosephPolitano Two possible resolutions: — Public is worried about negative supply shocks that raise prices while reducing output — Public doesn’t know economists’ technical definition of “recession” and use it as a synonym for “bad economic situation” — PolitiTweet.org

The geographical pattern of opiate overdoes doesn’t really fit a Pat story about deindustrialization or economic distress. https://t.co/WJk0sPThqn https://t.co/5rgBHRlJ42 — PolitiTweet.org

@swinshi My understanding (following stuff I’ve read from @RameshPonnuru who’s not like a pro-abortion fanatic) is that abortion restrictions do raise fertility. Open to persuasion if you or others have evidence that this is wrong. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@karlbykarlsmith I’m not calling anyone hypocritical or asking conservatives to become pro-abortion, but it seems to me that conservatives believe a rise in fatherless households will lead to a rise in mass shootings and I’m curious what their mitigation strategies are. https://t.co/z2p5iurQsL — PolitiTweet.org

@homo_topic I am expressing curiosity about the conservative view on something. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Personally, I don’t think conservatives have a realistic plan to bring back pre-Pill norms around sex and saying so in practice banning abortion will raise the number of children with unmarried parents — specifically poor ones who are likely to have a bunch of practical problems. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I understand, incidentally, that conservatives think abortion is murder and therefore they don’t need to worry too much about prudential concerns. But in other contexts (gun regulation, e.g.) conservatives do not believe murder-reduction should be the only consideration. — PolitiTweet.org

The opioid overdose issue, in particular, seems to be getting worse and worse and I haven’t seen many good ideas for meaningfully improving it. https://t.co/WJk0sPThqn — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of good discussion in response to this (some bad discussion to). I guess thinking about it I’m less interested in the statistical analysis than the “what are some forward-looking strategies that could translate America’s riches into fewer people dying?” — PolitiTweet.org

In response to this a number of conservatives have cited the Yellen/Akerlof paper which argues that legal abortion *and the birth control pill* led to increased unmarried parenting. But I feel like if I said “Republicans want to ban contraceptives” that would sound paranoid. — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Do any conservatives worry about the increase in fatherless children that will stem from banning abortions and the negative social consequences of that? In other contexts I’ve often read them complain that liberals won’t talk about this subject. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@MattGrossmann It seems like a complicated feedback where the importance of partisanship is growing which reduces the incentive to *try* to differentiate which further reenforces pure partisanship. — PolitiTweet.org

My worst opinion: There are objective facts about aesthetics — or at a minimum they are at least as objective as any other kind of facts. https://t.co/lbPQcIPJen https://t.co/xkd7AQfmaS — PolitiTweet.org
