This is just the standard pivot farther left groups use to prevent having to rethink or moderate, no? I’d say it applied to right groups too, but it doesn’t seem like there’s that much sense of inevitability on the right. https://t.co/g0DJccmG6C

I mean, if anyone (other than Biden himself) was responsible for Biden’s floundering start, it was Klain. Remember the laborious, failed attempt to pass a giant pile of badly developed social spending programs (Build Back Better)? https://t.co/vo8lK4xK4O https://t.co/5BX24cXzUI

As far as I can see, Columbia, in response to Trump, has adopted for disciplinary procedures a definition of antisemitism suggested by its own task force–which explicitly said it was “NOT intended to be used in disciplinary procedures.” [Emphasis added.] It’s easy to see why

Here’s a crude thought: We need enough manufacturing jobs to employ *our* less skilled workers who don’t or can’t ‘learn to code’ and can’t move to S. Dakota. Also to provide for secure key supply chains . But after that, tariffs’ work is done. Don’t need to artificially nurture https://t.co/D7fn7zZtLL

Is goal a) creating free, fair trading system by stopping cheating b) protecting US manufacturing jobs for our workers who need them. If goal’s (b), achieving (a) probably won’t do the job. Hard to see US-made EVs fairly competing with EVs from low-wage countries. Yet this list https://t.co/fQqm1kHAac

Wasn’t @RonaldKlain White House chief of staff when Biden first opened the borders to millions of illegals–one of the two or three disastrous policies that most obviously cost Dems’ the election? I think he was! What was he doing? Maybe he should trash himself first. https://t.co/pS55uBfhle
