if "American politics" were broken, we'd have seen things like this happen when Democrats controlled the House but we didn't what's broken, very specifically, is the Republican Party

Real quick, let’s talk about WEST VIRGINIA. Mountaineers playing Pitt in Morgantown tonight on ABC. Juiced up crowd, beautiful night for football. Looks sold out. Answers the question of why universities have athletics departments, right? 1/

I'm seeing a lot here about General Motors CEO Mary Barra after her disastrous CNN interview. Barra raked in $29 million last year as GM CEO. But I want to lift up a few more things about Barra, and how she represents the billionaire class more than people might even realize 🧵

It doesn't hurt to remind people that Desantis opposed Sandy relief when he was in Congress https://t.co/u8Zq5oVkv4 Relief should not be partisan grandstanding. It was wrong when Desantis, Cruse, and others did it and it would be wrong now. But let's not forget Desantis sucks

DeSantis gained stature among conservatives for his 2013 vote against a relief package for Hurricane Sandy victims. But then, as he was on the verge of declaring for Florida governor, he votes in...
Again a reporter tries to get Biden to make disaster relief partisan and use the moment to denounce DeSantis. Again he refuses to be divisive, focusing instead on the disaster relief itself, while praising DeSantis' help in planning and Sen. Rick Scott's (R-FL) efforts throughout

Big mystery!
Car crashes are just behind guns as the second greatest killer of US children. In fact, just taking a walk outside is becoming dangerous: about 7,508 pedestrians were killed by cars last year, the highest number since 1981 and a massive increase over the last decade.

Conveniently, Mark Graber has a new book out demonstrating that most of the framers of the 14th Amendment thought that Section 3 was more important than Section 1
kansaspress.ku.edu
In contemporary constitutional politics, Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment—which includes the citizenship, privileges and immunities, due process, ...
It’s… not a “novel legal theory,” it’s a 155-year-old constitutional provision that explicitly disqualifies people from federal office, and which a bunch of prominent conservative legal theorists believe applies squarely to Trump.

Wait -- APSA negotiated a no-cost severance strike clause and...just decided not to use it? Or even look into it? Yikes
From today's #APSA bus. meeting: -Contract betw/ APSA & JW Marriott/other struck hotels had a no-cost sever clause if strike occurs. -I asked "What would have cost to only sever contracts with Marriott & other @UNITEHERE11 struck hotels: Answer from Exec. Dir.: "We don't know."

Would you like to get a free copy of this book in return for being on an author meets critics / book panel? If so, let me know! I’d like to arrange something for both MPSA and COPPR.

i forgot to comment on this but it is very funny that after making “the kids should pass a civics test to vote” his thing, vivek immediately gets the easiest possible question about us history — which came first, the revolution or the constitution — wrong.
Maybe pedantic but Vivek talking about how "the US Constitution was what won us the American Revolution" is wildly wrong The Constitution, of course, was written in 1787 -- more than a decade after the Revolution started, in 1775. Totally different historical events
