Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday

by Carl Ballard — Wednesday, 5/13/26, 8:45 am

Patty Murray has done a lot of good lately. Probably the best in decades. Maybe it’s easier to be in opposition to a garbage human than the drudgery of governing. But, a lot of Senators have not been up to the task. Cantwell is significantly worse. The rest of Senate leadership has been worse.

And yet.

It’s probably best if this is her last term. She won election in 1992. And there has been there ever since. She’s now of the longest serving members.

It would probably be a good primary election to replace her. A lot of people would like a shot at it. I think it would be good to get some new blood.

The point is it’s fine to retire in your 70’s. Even if you’re still doing good work. Leave them wanting more. But only if you leave.

    Enten:

    It’s not just one poll. The five worst polls ever for any president on inflation, they all belong to Donald Trump and they have all occurred in the last month. What we’re talking about here is the worst numbers ever. Joe Biden isn’t in there. Jimmy Carter isn’t in there.”

    This POS was placed on leave for violently abusing a disabled student last December, yet her POS union members still elected her to represent them:

    Educator, suspended for allegedly abusing autistic student, elected Seattle teachers’ union president

    Idowu-Holiday was accused of repeatedly abusing a disabled boy over the last school year by the student’s family, including one instance that was witnessed by his therapist.

    The child, who has autism, a speech delay and is partially nonverbal, came home with bruises the size of adult fingertips on his arms in October, then again in December, according to a complaint obtained by the Seattle Times.
    …
    Meanwhile, the new union president’s alleged victim is still suffering, according to his parents.

    Even with Idowu-Holiday out of the classroom, the child has lasting trauma that has caused frequent emotional distress and even resistance to schooling, the victim’s father, Tyson Marsh, told the outlet.

    “Any movement toward him is received as if you were going to attack him,” Marsh said.

    Gee. Neither Carter nor Biden was re-elected. DJT47 is in real trouble come re-election time in 2028.

    “No” both in unison.

    Say, also Enten:

    CNN’s Harry Enten Serves ‘Big Time Reality Check for Democrats’ – Even Amid Trump’s Falling Poll Numbers

    You would have thought that the Democrats’ lead would expand on the generic congressional ballot. It didn’t happen,” Enten reported.

    From aggregate polling, Enten pointed out that Democrats have gone from the choice to control Congress from plus-six points in March of last year to plus-three points now. He argued Democrats should be far higher in popularity amid controversial moves by Trump, like striking Iran.

    “It is within the margin of error. So, despite all of the talk about Donald Trump’s unpopularity, the fact is, Republicans very much remain in the game when it comes to the congressional midterms,” Enten told Berman.

    Elsewhere I read this week that with the new districts in states that have made changes, there has to be D plus 4 polling for Democrats to retake the House in November. Instead the GOP is polling within the MOE.

    As long as we’re going to be quoting Enten, should we not quote everything he has to say?

    Congratulations to liberals for organizing their very own Jews Will Not Replace Us march:

    Anti-Zionist protesters march through NYC Jewish neighborhood, chanting for intifada

    NEW YORK — Anti-Zionist demonstrators marched through a Jewish area of Brooklyn on Monday, chanting for an intifada and waving a Hezbollah flag, in the latest in a series of caustic protests in Jewish parts of New York City.
    …
    The protesters on Monday waved a Hezbollah flag overhead and chanted, “Globalize the intifada,” “Brick by brick, wall by wall, Israel will fall,” and “Death to the IDF.”

    They also held an orange banner that read, “Israel is killing children” and shouted “baby killers” at Jewish counter-protesters, echoing an age-old blood libel.

    Whaddyou think? Is that bad for us in November?

    The producer price index rose a seasonally adjusted 1.4% for the month, much higher than the 0.5% Dow Jones consensus forecast and the upwardly revised 0.7% March increase.

    Shame they didn’t keep him around for months to ram some bills through.
