I mean, she's been the VP for four years now. People have been prepared for the idea that, if Joe can't do it, it's Kamala's job. Plus, she was on the ticket that won the primary.

If you're going to go with Kamala, the convention has to be to reintroduce Kamala to the public. You're not going to send the first Black woman candidate into the general election as the first candidate that got no convention introduction to the public. WTH are people thinking here?

Tressie makes a great point of Alex Wagner Tonight about an open convention -- you have attention of the public for a few days -- do you use that limited attention for arcane process or to highlight party's core beliefs and opponents weaknesses? Why would you throw that attention away on process?

Jake is gonna be wiping that dude off his shoes for weeks.

This is really, really dumb. If Pelosi thinks that a decision made by party elites against the results of the primary will be viewed FAVORABLY by voters, but selecting one of the people voted in by the public would somehow be seen as shady, she's lost the thread.

Told ya this was a Pelosi thing, not a billionaire thing.

Pelosi voiced support for an open nomination process if Biden drops outwww.politico.com Some California House Democrats don't want the process to replace the president on the ticket to seem like a Kamala Harris coronation.

If he's "passing the torch", doesn't that imply that Biden is selecting his replacement on the ticket?

Yet another reason to greatly expand the House: some of these fuckers have started to think they're special.

I see a replacement chosen by party insiders, contrary to the results of the primary, to convince voters that Democrats don't give a shit about protecting democracy.

"We have to protect democracy!" Okay, then run someone off the ticket that won your primary. "No, not like that."

The billionaire who's been bribing Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito donated a $10 million bribe to Senate Republicans to block Supreme Court reforms and investigations. Everyone understands these are bribes. Normalize calling them bribes.

The University of Mississippi expelled that guy. The RNC celebrated him.

Sorry, let me correct that: The University of Mississippi chapter of Phi Delta Theta fraternity expelled that guy. The University of Mississippi cannot comment on the outcome of any student disciplinary actions.

And to be clear, this isn't me being sly--I'm not on that committee, I don't know what happened to that student outside of news reports.

He's a major investor but doesn't own it? Did he lend them money?

A) She didn't damage it, what's the big deal? B) It's a statue of Bacchus. Wouldn't it be disrespectful NOT to hump it?

I wanna take a moment to commiserate with our lawyer friends. I can't imagine what it would be like if someone suddenly said from now on elections are actually tiny Skittles, and bond strength depends on what flavor Skittle they are--and I had to start rebuilding chemistry based on that.

Electrons, dammit

Ransomware installs software on your computer, breaks it and will only fix it after you pay them. Cloudstrike makes you pay them, installs software on your computer and then breaks it. 🤷‍♂️
