Late, but as another thing that annoys me about trump's latest global warming tweet:

Sure, record lows for the next couple days. After that? Back to unseasonably warm weather by about 10-20 degrees (at least here).

Well it's stupid for many reasons, and here's one more: isn't it unseasonable Arctic warmth that pushed the vortex down so far south in the first place and hosed up the Jet Stream?

Yes a more energetic atmosphere leading to more extreme weather events is evidence for, not against global warming.

North Korea actually took notes, and noticed that everyone who gives up their nukes ends up dead in a ditch within like 5 years. That is a hard sell.

As someone from a country that has strong democratic socialist systems that, despite some flaws, do tremendous good to society, it amazes me just how thorough a job the American right has done turning socialism into a dirty word, ensuring that any policy proposal even remotely geared towards giving people at the lower end of the ladder a leg up through public means is easily slandered as "socialism, and therefore communism/hitler".

Help each other out it's easy and good.

It comes from the Cold Warriors from the 50' to the 80's. After WWII it was pretty obvious that the USA/USSR would be bitter enemies but the invention of nuclear arms prevented the two new superpowers from punching each other. Queue decades of screeching propaganda and proxy wars. The "COMMUNISM BAD" propaganda was a huge favorite of the rich elite who absolutely loved the idea of their workers actively voting against their own self interest to let them bust unions and so on. Especially since the USA was strong enough to hold against the USSR on its own and you're not post-war Germany or Norway looking at this giant, looming specter of Soviet aggression next door (or in the case of Germany holding half of their nation hostage) so the Job Creators weren't pressured to toss the occasional socialist reform bone to the masses to avoid socialist revolts. It was a nationalistic spark against a scary enemy that the powers at be spent a good 30 years propagandizing to make it as powerful a slur as it is today.

Cue the collapse of the USSR and the fact that said European socialist reforms seem to be actually fairly popular and effective, and you've got a generation coming of political age that hears the Socialism/Communism screeching as grandpa crying wolf. It doesn't help that the people who most likely use Socialism/Communism as a dirty word are the ones who are most likely to be giving Putin sloppy blowjobs without registering one iota of self reflection.

Imposing higher taxes on the wealthy will incentivize the rich to work harder and pump the economy higher to make up for it and it will trickle down. There. Use their own bullshit against them.

"...creating a vision of the sort of society you want to have in miniature"
Great podcast interview with AOC on The Intercept, with some pretty eye opening discussion about how the Financial Services Committee has typically worked.

They also have Brad Miller who was formerly on the FSC to talk about his experience on that committee.

DPRK has said a million times that they are not giving up their program unless the US denuclearizes the peninsula, which is not happening. Trump of course is broke brained and falls into every obvious trap that Kim has set for him and thinks that means he’s ‘doing more than Obama ever did’ or whatever
