To be 100% clear, I think Biden's Gaza policy fucking sucks. I think he has utterly failed to restrain the worst impulses of Israel, and he has deeply damaged American credibility to the moral high ground through those policies. And yet, IMO a vote for him is a vote to save America from far worse.

Say what you like about the Secret Service, there's only so much they can do. You can't just say, "We want to have a massive open air rally in the middle of a rural paddock, so you black suits secure it!" and have them magic up a force field. Personal responsibility!

Today's gratuitous advice to the internet: Just because you made a video doesn't mean it's a POV. Just because it makes a sound doesn't mean it's ASMR.

Did y'all miss this last week? As you sow...

Violent threats from MAGA don't just appear to be rising in number, but getting more blatant. Typically, they couch threats in "ambiguous" language, to make the post-threat gaslighting easier. Lately, even the deniability is fading. www.salon.com/2024/07/08/s...

It's almost funny to see some of the MAGA folk earnestly fact checking people on the left saying that Trumps shooting was staged.

Marco Rubio and JD Vance trying to out-sycophant each other for the chance to be Trump's new bidet is the Kendrick/Drake beef of the right. And they're both Drake.

Not for nothing but Trump would have been perfectly safe this weekend if he'd been sent to prison on time.

Things Joe Biden didn’t say today: • “but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.” • “Stand back and stand by.” • “We love you; you're very special.” • “It's just horrible. It's so surprising to see it here, but you have to get over it.” Vote for whoever you want.

Okay, is NOW the time to talk about gun control?

When in doubt, refer to the @onthemedia.bsky.social Breaking News Consumer's Handbook:

First and foremost, everyone needs to hold onto the fact that it is WAY too early to know what actually happened here. That being said, buckle the fuck in, because the finding out, discourse about, & fallout from it going to be a fucking MESS. "Trump Rushed Off Stage… After What Sounded Like Shots"

These are not politically principled people. Their theory of political power is: "I should be able to convert money to state power to serve my interests and my preferences." Here is the free speech absolutist advocating for laws that compel people to pay him for speech! bsky.app/profile/numb...

I still think the safest choice is to keep Biden as our 2024 candidate. That being said, I think Dems have a good chance to retain the presidency with him or another candidate. We need to win and then work to make everything about voting in the US more fair www.bugbeardispatch.com/p/a-brokered...

I don't care who it is, my intelligence is insulted by any US president running for re-election talking about wanting to "finish the job." You know a term is 4 years. What job will be finished in 8 years? Do better!

If I give way to you when you've already passed the point of no return where I had right of way, it's not because I'm nice. You're just not worth the paperwork.
