Car dealers are a reliable and influential power bloc for Republicans. Today on Assigned, @emarcadia.bsky.social writes that Democrats should politicize them and pursue them and other bastions of Republican power as relentlessly as Republicans have pursued the Democratic coalition.

Republicans have long waged war against Democratic constituencies. What if we turned the tables?

Also illustrated by the (I think?) French official who said that they can't leave the security of Europe in the hands of voters in Wisconsin every four years. It would appear the US is widely (and rightly) being viewed as an unreliable ally. And it'll take a while for that to come back--if ever.

Republicans, in their infinite wisdom, left a big gambling loophole in the Medicaid work requirements.
I'm no fan of the gambling industry, but if you are on Medicaid and struggling to deal with the work requirements, taking a $580 bet on both sides of an outcome is one way of getting around them.

"But it now seems more plausible to me that saving a life in a rich country is substantially more important than saving a life in a poor country, other things being equal."

The most important medium-term consequence of Texas turning blue will be the rapid dismantling of the Electoral College, precisely because Republicans know this.
In terms of national politics, the Republican can't win the White House if they lose Texas. Also: Trump will still be president for two more years, burning up the GOP's brand along the way.
