Today in @thenation.com, @evenrobins.bsky.social has a damning verdict on Andy Burnham's first week as UK prime minister. "Burnham has maintained extensive continuity with the prime minister he deposed, and has shown little desire to forge a new direction." www.thenation.com/article/worl...

We have a beautiful, beautiful piece from Hassan Abo Qamar up at @thenation.com right now, about how people in Gaza have pushed through every obstacle to revel in the collective joy of watching the World Cup. A must-read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...
"For 90 minutes, the World Cup gives us something the genocide has tried to take away: a sense of community, a sense of normality, and a moment of pure celebration." www.thenation.com/article/worl...

If a serial killer died, Meet the Press wouldn’t bring on two other serial killers to talk about their fond memories of serial killing together. But if you’re a genocidal fascist politician, you get to have fellow genocidal fascists remember the good times. www.discourseblog.com/p/meet-the-p...
Wrote for @discourseblog.com about the Meet the Press tribute to Lindsey Graham, which was one of the most morally bankrupt, genocide-embracing, revolting things I can remember seeing on television. www.discourseblog.com/p/meet-the-p...

Sen. Adam SchiffWhat 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.

It's great to have a co-author like @becquer.bsky.social when you need to explain the current state of Spanish politics to a US audience. In @thenation.com we talk about Pedro Sánchez's mounting troubles and why he might still come out on top. www.thenation.com/article/worl...
