it is extremely funny to think that lamont was, twenty years ago, the unacceptably left-wing candidate whose primary win over former vice presidential candidate Joe Lieberman led to his sour grapes run and, downstream, the death of the public option
Opinion HaverA major issue with the establishment's efforts fending off individual progressives like El-Sayed, Hong, Chevalier, Kiros, Gonzales, Flanagan, etc, is that we're well past the point where it's clear that young voters just Do This now, and who do you think is going to make up the electorate later?

Land back, but for public rights-of-way that the automobile industry and car gentry stole from us
Matthew Lewis -- living in the era of cults and consequencesThe car industry never offered compensation to the residents whose front yards they stole to store their products. They never lobbied to ensure that the land they stole for street parking was fully funded by fees on drivers. It's no different from the cities they razed to ground to build highways.

Fascinating coalition politics at play for this bill to make it easier to build housing in Seattle: The four most progressive members of the council + the most conservative one (Kettle) teamed up with the leftist mayor to pass the bill, while all the centrist democrats opposed it
Ryan PackerThe final vote: YES: Strauss, Foster, Kettle, Lin, Rinck NO: Saka, Juarez, Rivera, Hollingsworth The bill passes 5-4.

Law prohibited states from legalizing sports gambling; unconstitutional (anti-commandeering, 10th amendment). Parts that banned private betting were found to be not severable and whole law was struck down. Could be fixed by making sports betting a federal crime, or so the majority claims.
