President Biden telling the #PressCorpse and the Tonya Harding Dems to fuck off is just what was needed. He's going to prove them wrong, AGAIN, and they will not have the shame nor the honor to admit it.

I don’t even know where to begin with this.

Weirdly specific “every accusation is a confession” that the people reviving the Satanic Panic literally ran an abusive daycare
report on the GOP freak running for NC gov: "he and his wife were cited for numerous violations at the child care center they operated from 2000 to 2007, including a charge that the center presented falsified certification documents to state inspectors." www.newsobserver.com/opinion/arti...

If they’re comfortable killing other people, they will eventually be comfortable killing you. You can learn that lesson the easy way or the hard way.

That Heritage Foundation statement threatening a violent revolution against the left = that moment in a movie in which the forces of evil loudly announce their evil plans. except in real life, unlike in a movie, most normal people don’t even realize this has *happened* (which is our job).

The Heritage Foundation “don’t make us kill you, Democrats” statement may mark one of those moments people will read about in 100 years (hopefully!) and think to themselves “why didn’t they freak out when they heard the extremists say that?” (Sadly, it’s just not how humans work most of the time)

This is the whole story.
I mean, I look at the structural stuff, not the narrative here. The polls have barely moved, Trump has no money, and Biden has a huge war chest and time booked. Why let the panic of a few people- largely driven by people that already don’t like Biden- shape what I’m thinking here?

Remember when the MAGA cult was screaming for the release of the Epstein files and now that they’re out with Trump’s name all over them, it’s all crickets and tumbleweeds from the party of law & order and family values? Good times, good times.

When I chose to serve & took my oath, it was for the benefit of all, not just ‘my people’. An ideal strangely lost on a lot of Americans. Politicians… Judges… Your Uncle Bubba. Our next war won’t be a civil war. That’s what we’ll call it, but it will be very much an uncivil war. #VoteBlue

I got a pretty bad feeling this doesn't stop with President Biden. If he were to drop out, I feel like we'd see a deluge of media criticism for Vice President Harris or Gov. Whitmer or Gov. Newsom or Sec. Buttigieg or any other Democrat while Trump gets a pass. Call it a hunch.

George W. Bush had daily naptime in his schedule when he was Governor of Texas — he was in his early 50s, and his job was mostly photo ops. What are we doing here? As much as we need to do a lot of work to rebuild the Republic, we even more badly need to rebuild journalism from the ground up.

In all meanings of the phrase, the press has decided that Biden cannot win. I don't mean the election. I mean they decide what winning means and there is nothing he can do to win with them.

Oh no everyone- a man who has been arguing on the internet for 30 years says I have no idea what I am talking about when it comes to crisis management. I guess I should throw out 20 years of experience, 2 Masters, a company, and return to a peaceful life of uh. Knitting? 😂😂😂
She hasn't even listened to them. She has no idea what she's talking about! I've been arguing on the internet for 30 years, and I'm not sure I've ever seen a more brazen attempt to get out of a corner
