I wrote about Willie Nelson and his song "Your Memory Won't Die In My Grace" + some other stuff. I'm sick of putting the link in a reply so I'm just gonna leave it here and maybe y'all can retweet this to spite Elon's moronic rules. davidbramsey.substack.com/p/willie-nelso…

Kinda bleak to watch clips of politicians just in the 80s & 90s be so so much more fluent than our current crop. Even someone widely thought dumb like Quayle is way more capable of speaking clearly and knowledgeably. Was it the internet? Social media? We’re all a little dumber?

A lot of people owe an apology to Rashida Tlaib. No one will.

Wild: Michigan AG Dana Nessel dropped all charges against 8 pro-Palestinian protesters not on the merits, but because the court was about to find her too racially biased against Arabs and Muslims to fairly prosecute the case based on her extensive history of racist attacks

SCANDAL IN ARKANSAS The latest: Attorney General who made up capricious, post-hoc rules on the fly in conspiracy to keep abortion off the ballot by any means necessary tries to defend malfeasance. But he only makes things worse.

Tim Griffin misfires in a humiliating turn as a YouTube influencer: awkward, tedious, misleading, unseemly, and wrong.

Biggest misconception re: Medicaid "work requirements"--actual *requirement* is keeping up w/busybody paperwork, which in most states will be administered in confusing & burdensome grind that would make the DMV blush. You can work/be exempt & still get booted by the paper pushers

Replying to @mattyglesias
isn't this sort of your vibe but it's all directed at leftists you find personally aggravating?

This was done w/o organizational support from national groups on a shoestring budget. Just Arkansas women with clipboards, hustling.

Massive news from Arkansas: An amendment to reverse the state's abortion ban & protect abortion rights up to 18 weeks has enough signatures in hand to qualify for the ballot in November. Abortion rights have done well w/direct democracy but Arkansas toughest test yet post-Roe.

Secretary of State's letter was deeply misleading. Abortion petitioners did in fact submit the list of paid canvassers. SoS's reasons for tossing pretty damn flimsy. But even if that holds they are CLEARLY violating the law by stopping the count. More soon.

Y'all I'm fixing to publish a new article on the abortion petition kerfuffle and honestly I'm starting to feel like this is one of the biggest scandals I've ever covered. More soon.
