The teamsters union president’s speech at the RNC was perfect.

Last day of work before being up north for 4 days with the wife kid dogs and in laws. Is it bad is almost rather stay home than travel while he’s going through sleep regression?

They literally posted that the Seine has more above acceptable levels of E. coli days than at or lower acceptable levels… so I guess have fun with the diarrhea?

Over half a century after the Seine was declared biologically dead, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo dipped into the river on Wednesday and declared it sufficiently clean for Olympic swimming competitions.

Project 2025 has hit TikTok, Instagram reels and is slowly leaking into Facebook. The more it’s talked about the more awareness it spreads. People don’t like it and don’t want it. Spread the word

On Chris Hayes podcast with Jamelle Bouie they talked about a possible reason for optimism: Project 2025 seems to have deeply penetrated TikTok. Anecdotally, my 15 yr old mentioned to me all the counselors she works with at camp have been talking about it and what rights they’re worried about losing

Catching a Republican in a logical contradiction is so pointless. It's like showing a cat incontrovertible evidence that they have been fed already. They don't care. It didn't even register to them that you were speaking.

JD Vance career trajectory: 1. Writes book calling poor whites lazy and irresponsible 2. Becomes Silicon Valley venture capitalist 3. Wins Senate seat with $15 mil from Peter Thiel by telling poor whites the 2020 election was stolen and immigrants are coming to kill them 4. Vice president!

Breaking news: President Biden is finalizing plans to endorse major changes to the Supreme Court in the coming weeks, including proposals for legislation to establish term limits for the justices and an enforceable ethics code, according to two people briefed on the plans.

Biden set to announce support for major Supreme Court changeswww.washingtonpost.com The president has discussed the plans with constitutional scholars and members of Congress in recent weeks.

Why the hell aren’t the Dems using things like this and also pointing at Texas and saying SEE SEE green energy works privatized doesn’t. Green good green = more money

Some nice copy here …apparently California now has batteries roughly equivalent to 5 Diablo Canyons (in capacity, not run time…)

I guess I never realized that my dad’s whole side of the family coming from Crooksville Ohio and him himself being born in West Virginia gives me Appalachian roots. This explains so much

There are varying definitions of which places belong to the cultural region of Appalachia. None of them include Republican Sen. J.D. Vance's hometown of Middletown, Ohio.

I mean when the highest court allows it for financial gain of course it’s going to trickle down. Silly us because this was the trickle down economics Reagan was really talking about

The media really needs to stop reporting on Amazon Prime Day as if it is a culturally significant event and not a company holding a sale.

Arizona, the model for voucher programs across the country, has spent so much money paying private schoolers' tuition that it's now facing hundreds of millions in budget cuts to critical state programs and projects.

H-O-T-D-O-G-S I like hotdogs they’re the best

It is great seeing how many people loathe Vance

But if he gets elected and the blue collar people lose money they’ll just blame Biden. Even when they’re making more they blow it on new trucks with an 8% interest rate that get 15 mpg, new campers, an extra family trip to Florida for their 3-5 kids. Then say “that damn Biden took all our money!”

The claim that Trump “ushered in economic populism” & “downgraded the importance of country-club Republicans while prioritizing blue collar workers,” not only reads like an RNC press release, but is belied by Trump’s record (tax cuts for the rich, an anti-labor NLRB, support for wage theft, etc.)/3

Drump is 6’3 cosplay hillbilly Vance is 5’7 yet somehow they’re closer in height on stage. My conclusion Vance who loves the Smokey eye is definitely wearing platform shoes and is a small step from drag

I feel like Savannah is aging backwards. She had those three children raised/is raising them doesn’t miss games and looks like she’s 25 now. Absolute queen

Chicago deep dish tornados aren’t real tornados, they’re wind soup.

That isn’t even a real tornado in Chicago. It’s a casserole tornado.

I appreciate the well wishes but y’all need to calm down. It’s just multiple tornados while I’m stuck on the runway in a regional jet. Big deal. I’ve slept with white men. Waaay scarier.

The plane has stopped swaying for the moment so that’s probably good. I need another double vodka cran. The flight attendants are busy trying to calm each other. Cowards.
