If at some point Russia is genuinely willing to sue for peace, I wouldn’t necessarily back maximalist Ukrainian war aims but that’s not the current situation so we should keep giving Ukraine equipment and encourage Russia to be more reasonable. — PolitiTweet.org

The man does his part to rebalance demand and reduce inflation by spending a small part of his vast fortune on a luxury yacht vacation in Italy and the liberal media goes after him for it. Sad stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

Now that we are out of the FAIT holding pattern we should probably go back to assuming the Fed neutralizes everything and say that fiscal policy measures change interest rates rather than being inflationary or disinflationary. — PolitiTweet.org

Just as trying to repeal the ACA hurt Trump more than any scandal, privatizing Social Security was Bush’s real Katrina. Republicans just can’t quit safety net rollback. — PolitiTweet.org

This ep makes me feel young again — remember when the “net roots” mobilized to beat Bush’s Social Security privatization plan? — PolitiTweet.org

There's a joint DOL/ED initiative to promote apprenticeships to create a non-college path to match young workers with in-demand skills. That sounds interesting! https://t.co/WZNNkM5WaW — PolitiTweet.org

What's true is that nothing you can do on this front (forgive all debt, forgive no debt, forgive some debt) constitutes actual forward-looking higher education policy. I'm looking forward to being able to talk about that instead of endlessly debating one-off debt relief! — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Nothing's official until it's official, but the debt forgiveness plan that's been leaked strikes me a reasonably prudent reconciling of Biden's campaign commitments with the needs of the current economic situation. — PolitiTweet.org

@RichardHanania I can't speak to women's experiences, but a cognate phenomenon that I see very clearly is I'm viewed as less threatening when I have my kid with me. The relevant stereotyping has a factual basis, but I still don't enjoy being treated as presumptively dangerous when I'm not. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@RichardHanania I'm not sure what I actually wrote that you disagree with — my suggestion would be that if you think everything I said was correct, you could give me one of those little twitter hearts or say "I'm pretty right-wing, but everything in this thread is correct." — PolitiTweet.org

One last tweet on this! U Street was majority-Black when I first moved there (it's become whiter since) so I found myself being the only white person in the room in various day-to-day situations and I'm struck by how rarely the typical white American has that experience. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
As I threaded yesterday, I do think the "white privilege" discourse sometimes embeds toxic and unproductive class politics. But if you're just a bit reflective about it, it's definitely real and significant. https://t.co/Q4pHrRH9I0 — PolitiTweet.org

To be serious about this, it is a lot easier to see and acknowledge your privilege as a straight white man when you… https://t.co/HSFyKvMgsS

I dress up when appropriate, but also walk around the neighborhood looking like a slob sometimes. My friends with different skin coloring worry a lot about how they'll be perceived if they are dressing too casually — and about the consequences of that misperception. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Now I can't prove that happened because of how I look, but I think someone with different pigmentation would be viewed much more skeptically in this kind of situation. Recommend @ElijaAnderson's book "Black in White Space" for great discussion of this. https://t.co/YHTOf65i56 — PolitiTweet.org

... when I got to the men's room, it turned out you needed a room key to open it. I didn't have one because I'm not a guest there. But a passing staff member glanced at the situation, thought I looked like someone he should help out, and swiped me in. — PolitiTweet.org

I think the obvious race-based privileges that white guys enjoy have to do with how you are "read" by total strangers in random situations. For example, I was recently in Manhattan and needed to pee so I went into a hotel lobby and started heading to a restroom... — PolitiTweet.org

What are some race-based advantages, today, that a white guy making $26,000 per year would have?

@DanteAtkins @brianbeutler The best you can do is try to lean into conservative value-framings. https://t.co/UW0QD183k6 — PolitiTweet.org

@JHWeissmann @conorsen @NathanTankus Wait wait wait let's just back up. It is absolutely not the case that left-wing critics of YIMBYism have been saying YIMBYism wouldn't lead to new construction. People oppose zoning reform because they think it *will* lead to new construction and that's bad. — PolitiTweet.org
