There is no way to square Republicans' ideological commitment to tax cuts for rich people and capital owners with their practical political reliance on an electoral base of older non-college voters — hence the interest in debt ceiling hostage tactics. — PolitiTweet.org

On https://t.co/n1cNBMgwlo it tends to be progressives who are interested in heterodox economics and conseratives who preach sound money and balanced budgets. But in actual congress Congress, it's Republicans who are going to struggle more with a politics of fiscal constraint. — PolitiTweet.org

@IDoTheThinking I mean it is obviously possible to construct an entire house for less than $1.7 million, so I think it follows that you could build a cheaper toilet. — PolitiTweet.org

I think that if you spend a little time studying philosophical brainteasers, one thing you'll learn is that the hard question isn't whether language models reach these bars it's whether human beings do. https://t.co/6V9Y9h8pyD — PolitiTweet.org

We're going to need a massive program to retrain "skilled" professionals made obsolete by large language models (yes, like me) to get work doing the jobs of the future like law enforcement, child care, and nursing. — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear: I think Democrats are on track for one of the best midterm performances of all time — it’s just that still leaves then likely losing the House & Senate resulting in executive branch paralysis, debt ceiling crisis, austerity, possible collapse of aide to Ukraine, etc — PolitiTweet.org

Once in the 1990s, I got arrested for drinking beer in a park and then while en route to my court date on the subway got stopped against by police officers who were doing a truancy crackdown. But they saw my summons and let me go. — PolitiTweet.org

@KennethBaer I think the official “broken windows” doctrine was something else — the idea that minor offenses literally caused accelerating deviant behavior. Might be true, but I think the “it’s good to find ways to catch people will illegal guns” theory is more clearly supported. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
This was the classic rationale for cracking down on fare-beaters in the 1990s — you end up seizing a lot of illegal guns if you stop and search the people who are committing more minor infractions. — PolitiTweet.org

The key to ginning up outrage about something (“the way republicans would if it were democrats”) is that you need to actually do the object-level work of acting outraged about it rather than making second-order commentary about how it would play if the parties were reversed. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s interesting because if you take reach states off the map and only model AZ/NH/NV/GA/WI/PA it flips to favoring Republicans. The Dem edge in the forecast seems to be driven by longshots in OH, FL, and NC. https://t.co/dX06NkHdnl https://t.co/RRsIvGUmUh — PolitiTweet.org

The tails on this forecast are interesting — Dems more likely to gain four seats than to lose three? I’m skeptical. https://t.co/j4ZuB6iSjA — PolitiTweet.org
