@SWGoldman @DouthatNYT Hmm I think a Democratic administration's policy is a much better guide to where the party is at than math curricula. Regardless, much of the public debate recently has been *about* national messaging and the national party, and it's just odd. — PolitiTweet.org

@DouthatNYT As significant (or not!) as such curricular changes may be, I see very little evidence that the national Democratic party is building their message around them — PolitiTweet.org

I’m an optimist by nature - or at least I was, prior to the global crisis of democracy - so I loved this @Noahpinion piece on the coming decade of extraordinary tech advances https://t.co/RkFKd2u8x1 — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

@razibkhan Oh I totally get why it's still a topic of cultural interest. I've just read a million columns about Democratic messaging and rhetoric that assume they sound like Tema Okun when in reality they really do not — PolitiTweet.org

@paulcrider My colleague @nicolenarea has a good piece on this https://t.co/Shobyx0uxZ — PolitiTweet.org

It's like the pundit view of the Democratic party is stuck in the early stages of the 2020 primary, where candidates were trying to out-left each other, and hasn't been updated since. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm a little baffled by the persistence of the "wokeness" debate in the Biden era, at least when it comes to electoral politics. The author of the 1994 Crime Bill is president! His legislative agenda is almost exclusively economic and he just expanded the Remain in Mexico policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Fantastic @bartongellman piece on the plot against the 2024 election, worthy of the highest praise a journalist on the same beat can give: I wish I had written this https://t.co/wyyJmIetfb — PolitiTweet.org

If you read between the lines of the article, it seems like DeSantis' goal is to create an alternative for FL National Guard members who don't want to comply with the federal vaccine mandate. Totally on brand for his Covid culture warrior schtick, but not authoritarian at all. — PolitiTweet.org

Seems irresponsible to publish this headline, knowing it will freak people out, given that a state guard is a totally normal thing that 22 other states (including NY and CA!) already have https://t.co/fnXDSftL0L — PolitiTweet.org

@MattBruenig @QOrigins Again, if you think that's even remotely comparable to what Republicans are doing now, you clearly haven't been paying attention to the latter. This is why I rolled my eyes — this entire conversation is an exercise in false equivalence dressed up as a concern for principle — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

@MattBruenig @QOrigins Individual bad acts are not the same thing as a systemic threat to actually compromise the system. And when Democrats do bad things, I say so https://t.co/JIe3v0GcDn — PolitiTweet.org

@afhomer This is a genuinely great question I may devote a future piece to — PolitiTweet.org

I spend pretty much every working hour thinking about the threat to global and American democracy. I feel like I'm constantly screaming things could get really bad. A lot of journalists and scholars are. But I'm worried we're not getting through. What we're doing isn't working. — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

Look at the energy here — local Republican activists actively working to undermine the fairness of the vote counting process. I've seen no evidence of any kind of similar grassroots effort to *protect* precincts from partisan abuse. https://t.co/y8gxB1v206 — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

The most dispiriting thing about this excellent @jbouie column is that the factions looking to topple democracy are organizing in plain sight — and the people who want to preserve it aren't acting like it's an emergency https://t.co/8H0gCXACbv — PolitiTweet.org

One thing I’ll never understand is how much genuine joy she seems to take from being an obstructionist — PolitiTweet.org

@lionel_trolling no it rules — PolitiTweet.org

@chrislhayes Except the specific/diffuse dynamics are reversed. Instead of gun owners being the key affected constituency, it’s women who want abortion rights - a dynamic I suspect will redound to Democrats’ benefit — PolitiTweet.org
