Well the New York Post is already calling her the first potential DEI president so there’s that!
I will 100% vote Harris if shes the nominee but I think the quadruple exponent of a Black person who dares to also be a WOMAN with OPINIONS and A LAW DEGREE will bring out the beltway pearl clutching opeds in a flood so impressive I’ll buy shares in boat builders

So because Biden doesn’t behave the way you’d like the New York Times gets to lower its standards and wildly speculate on sensitive health information with no proof?
It wouldn't have legs, or be click worthy at all, if the White House did the right things. Biden is making his bed and lying in it.

As a longtime NYT subscriber who is completely open to and supportive of the idea of Biden dropping out I find this article breathtakingly irresponsible. I cannot believe it was published.
Breaking News: A Parkinson’s expert visited the White House eight times in eight months from last summer through this spring, according to official visitor logs. The administration has said that President Biden has no signs of the disease.

Damn. Imagine voting strategically to prevent the worst possible outcomes…
Le Pen's party (RN) got 143 seats. While a record, that's far (very far) from the 289 they hoped for to govern. How?! Hundreds of Left & Macronist candidates dropped out to help each other block the RN. And millions of voters then voted strategically to get that job done.

They tried this four years ago with varying results. The far better use of the money is by buying existing local TV stations and newspapers and staffing them properly
if there is one thing I want to come out of this election, regardless of result, it is Dems - and the left more generally - finally understanding that they need to make their own media ecosystem and stop relying on folks who want them to lose to get their message out

Unironically put this post on ads in swing states
there are many reasons we need to win in the fall, but one of them is that i simply am not going to abide by letting both the brits and the french lecture us

Honest question: who is in charge of making sure abortion access is on the ballot in every single state? Who is running point on this?
Organizers got enough signatures to put a measure protecting abortion on the ballot in Arkansas. In *Arkansas*. They had *no national support*. Ignore the pundits melting down over not being treated as Very Special Boys. Dobbs has fundamentally changed elections. Everything they know is wrong.
Arkansas abortion rights groups collect enough signatures to advance ballot measurewww.nbcnews.com A measure to enshrine abortion rights in the ruby red state’s constitution is now one step closer to making the November ballot — but major obstacles remain.

I think Red Sox fans have behaved appropriately over the war decade tbh.

Yankee fans are in absolute shambles right now. I may have to re-rank by the all-star break.
Oh I don't think that's right at all, we're very accustomed to things going wrong. Yankees fans on the other hand actually just don't know how to cope

They’ve won too many times recently and their anger toward ownership for trading Mookie Betts and not spending enough money is justified!
I see no MA based ball club in this. What am I missing?

The Dodgers need infield help. Yesterday they ran out a lineup with four infielders with OPS’s in the .500’s. This can’t go on into August open.substack.com/pub/mollykni...

Trump distancing himself from Project 2025 is 1) a lie, and 2) indication that they think playing their hand too early jeopardizes their chances.

Been a subscriber to the NYT for 20 years and I believe this is the first time I’ve ever left a comment on a story. Absolutely unhinged shit cloaked in civility and arrogance. Of course, nothing this court does will negatively hurt a straight white male member of the elite.
Due respect to the professor, this is laughable special pleading on behalf of John Roberts—his old boss—whom he repeatedly conflates with the whole court in this piece. www.nytimes.com/2024/07/05/o...

I’m sorta mad the Mets are known as the Grimace Mets instead of the Francisco Alvarez Mets but then I thought: Grimace Alvarez Mets.
