I think Joe Biden needs to go and take his victory lap. Barnstorm the country: We got a world and country on fire, and we FUCKING FIXED IT. Look at everything we did! And now I earned my rest and a good fucking time, and I leave you with this terrific woman.

The correct response to Chevron being overturned is for every single environmental group to start filing millions of lawsuits, right now, today, arguing that various regulatory decisions didn't go far enough. Absolutely flood the zone.

This is the dumbest shit I've ever read. It does not even discuss their hypothetical replacement candidate and outright says that, if forced to choose between the two, it's Biden they endorse. What are we even doing here

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

RIP Noam Chomsky; you made many middle school students slightly more insufferable with your People's History of the United States.

Incidentally, when Trump says that student debt forgiveness is "vile," remember that he has declared bankruptcy for his companies six times to get out of paying debt.

Honestly, this is almost the most Republican thing ever: “I will make life much harder on a bunch of Americans in a way that will not benefit any of you in the slightest.”

AI in a nutshell

We have the technology to find precisely what existing thing you’re looking for on the Internet but instead here’s technology that finds nothing at all and makes up nonsense instead. That will be $100 billion and all the electricity please.

Ben meant NE02. NE01 is Lincoln, which, unlike Omaha, has a Dem mayor, but its house district is heavily gerrymandered.

It is not crazy to think that the entire election will come down to Nebraska-1, which is basically just Omaha.

Actually building the tech industry with an American company after Republicans lied about it and gave billions in public funds away to a Chinese company to not build anything seems like a 360 tomahawk slam dunk, at any rate. It'll be interesting to see how they screw up the messaging
