Und darum brauchen wir endlich viel rücksichtslosere Parteipolitik (auf englisch nennt man es HYPERPARTISANSHIP), viel weniger "staatspolitische Verantwortung" und viel härtere Eskalation.

Burns is absolutely right about this, but because a period of new hyperpartisanship followed the least partisan era in American history, it seems unprecedented
The U.S. has been “way more divided” throughout history than it is now, argues documentarian Ken Burns.
“We can't be Chicken Littles sitting around fretting about the sky is falling all the time without ... doing something about it,” he told Dasha Burns on #TheConversation.

the problem is basically that hyperpartisanship in contemporary America basically means that the right just genuinely no longer believes any of this more than anything

Newt Gingrich bears as much responsibility for the current era of obstructionist hyperpartisanship as any living human, meaning his take on shutdown strategy is worth only slightly less than his advice on martial fidelity
In Opinion
“Democrats are poised to shut down the government in order to look like they’re willing to 'do something' — anything — to thwart President Trump," Newt Gingrich writes. “That might be what their base wants, but it’s not how you go about trying to win back the House majority.”

Talk about blind spots: R&LMurdoch’s empuced columns stink with hyperpartisanship; Sheridan and Julian Leeser ignore Gaza humanitarian catastrophe; editorial ignores full fibre NBN vandalism by Abbott; spins China’s massive renewables transition as an endorsement of coal. Pathetic.

Trump and Musk are going to abandon Zelensky and Ukraine. Musk is actively interfering in Germany’s election, backing neo-Nazi AfD under cover of anti-immigration. Musk could also interfere in Australia’s election with Murdochs’ Dutton-LNP hyperpartisanship.

What I’ll remember most about Graham is how the most dangerous place to be in Washington was between him and a microphone. How he deliberately avoided every off-ramp from Trump. How he was one of the most whiny, obnoxious enablers of the hyperpartisanship strangling us. bsky.app/profile/schi...
What I’ll remember most about Senator Graham was his sense of humor and how he deployed it to move his policy positions forward. Though we did not often agree, Senator Graham was never disagreeable.

The Founders understood civic virtue to be essential, and we lack it. The theory that ambition would check ambition, and thereby allow us to muddle through the reality of that leaders are human not angels has clearly let us down in an era of hyperpartisanship.

Republicans first got into bed with Trump out of fanaticism and hyperpartisanship. But over the course of his first failed term, staying the course became incumbent, because he committed and facilitated a lot of crime. Now it’s MUCH worse. www.offmessage.net/p/maga-disar...

Re: the Current Discourse:
In an age of hyperpartisanship, all that matters about a US senator is whether they pull the D lever or the R lever when it comes time to vote. Everything else is noise.
Send a monkey. Send a turnip. Send an AI bot. Long as they pull the D lever, I don't give a shit.

What's at the root of the UCP's use of the notwithstanding clause?
Our @partyloyalty.bsky.social research suggests hyperpartisanship is playing a huge role.
The locker room mentality in the UCP caucus is encouraging MLAs to cede even more power to the premier's office.
That's bad for democracy.

The UCP uses closure more than any other party in Alberta history.
It's easy to blame the leadership for curtailing debate.
But UCP backbenchers have willingly handed over their authority by supporting these motions.

Conversely, people in the opposition party, particularly in this era of hyperpartisanship, hate anything the president is doing. They hate everything he might even think about
