Instead of wasting time on a bogus impeachment, maybe House Republicans should do something about child poverty––which has DOUBLED in the last year. They had a chance to extend these programs to keep our children fed & boost working families out of poverty. But they didn't. Shameful.

This week we’ve seen the effects of the US Republicans and UK Tories being captured by the extreme right Yes, PR may enable radical right parties to win seats But, majoritarian electoral systems have led to the extreme right gradually taking over mainstream right parties

Like Artur Wilczynski I woke up feeling even better than usual. Speaker Fergus and Premier Elect Kinew will make great contributions. Very good news for Manitoba and Canada.

Does gender affect the length of parliamentary careers? In this study we develop three measures to investigate the size of gender gaps among political seniors in 9 countries from 1965-2020. Main take-away: Balanced parliaments reduce gender gaps, but size still large. 🙏P&G! 👇

When Putin invaded Ukraine, he was counting on the democracies of the world to do nothing. But because of American leadership, we linked arms and proved him wrong. It’s in our national security interests to stand with Ukraine—and we must deliver more aid to help them fight back.

Just finished up the new chapter with John Vasquez for the revised third edition of What Do We Know About War. Our chapter discusses how quantitative conflict research provides insights about the onset of the Russia-Ukraine war & potential for escalation to a major power war.
