I went to Vienna, Austria as part of a college trip and I would advise my friends who want to copy Vienna's housing system to also shift the Overton window on the criminal justice system by looking into their system that cares about getting people into society, not punishment
Former Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is opening doors for DSA-backed L.A. mayoral candidate Nithya Raman — bringing her face-to-face with some of the city’s biggest power players, TMZ reports.
He hosted an off-the-record meeting at his L.A. office last week. Hollywood, business, and nonprofit leaders could ask her anything.
Some were shocked he’d host a democratic socialist. After her pitch on L.A.’s problems, several who arrived skeptical walked away impressed.
In the room: at least seven people from United Talent Agency — including his agent Jim Berkus — plus execs in celebrity finance and clean tech, the CEO of After-School All-Stars, and the director of the USC Schwarzenegger Institute.
His chief of staff said Raman faced tough, unlimited questions and handled them well.

When my single mom was struggling because she wasn't getting her child support payments she reached out to politicians for help
... It was the office of Vice President Dick Cheney who promised she'd get them next month, and she did
Yes, he's Dick Cheney but he did *that* for us
Ossoff: My office is known for world-class service. And what amazes me is how surprised people are to be treated well.
Nancy Lancy's 81 years old in Jesup. Her husband died after years of dementia. She was worn out and alone, and now her affairs as a widow were all wrapped up in this bureaucratic labyrinth, from the VA to the IRS and Social Security. So we took care of things for her. And I'll never forget what she said about it. She said, "This was a new experience, to have someone caring about me."
How has it come to pass that for so many Americans, the experience of genuine care is rare and surprising?

Look, 51 for the Senate, I get how the power balance works, but I do hate every single one of you that acted like being a food worker that had hate posts about Thanksgiving was disqualifying in Wisconsin but are pretending using the R-word helps your chances in Alaska

Democrats went into panic mode when a working class woman aiming to be Wisconsin government, who worked in the food industry hated Thanksgiving, which is common for good industry workers.
I'll note that they panicked there but are fine with a moderate saying the r-word.
An anonymous Democratic staffer working on a must win race whined and cried to the press because they heard a few bad words. This is exactly the problem our party has. We can not be the party of scolds and hall monitors going "erm actually you can't say that".

When experts and industry leaders sound the alarm bell, we should listen.
I'm establishing the Illinois AI Cabinet to assess the risks AI poses to Illinoisans' safety, identify safeguards, and determine how we respond.
We're not waiting for Congress or this White House to act.
ALT Governor JB Pritzker today signed Executive Order 2026-07 establishing the Illinois Artificial Intelligence (AI) Cabinet, a group of individuals from across industries and fields that will assess the various risks posed by AI to the safety of Illinoisans.

I live in the Illinois state capital city, Springfield, where Sonya Massey was murdered by the cop she called 911 for in 2024
Between horrified conservatives now supporting change so Never Again, and the national shift, Sangamon county Dems are aiming to flip the Sheriff seat
People l debate what a wave means in terms of federal elections, understandably, but the consequences for local office and local power would be huge as well.
Tarrant County (you’ve all seen that poll?) has extremely important races for DA, county judge, and county commissioner.

I have a friend who lived in North Carolina and was victim to the *intense* voter suppression down there and doesn't think we should assume Roy Cooper has it in the bag despite the polls.
And fair, Roy Cooper is campaigning like he's behind by 10 points.

It's getting pretty clear that if El-Sayed loses, all the centrists will say it was because he didn't disavow Hasan while all the leftists will say its because he campaigned with Kamala Harris. However if he wins, everyone will say the opposite. Gotta love factional proxy wars.

A nice triple smash burger at a fast food place nearby used to cost me $9.87.
After my Republican-controlled county voted on the ballot to raise sales tax to fund a mental health board to provide better mental health services to the county, it now costs me $9.91.
Yeah worth it.

Evidently some surprising results coming next week from the Philly suburbs.
Where I used to live in Bucks County is safe blue both state-level House and Senate, these districts touch a couple of these districts, so let's see what my old home is thinking.
