I’m going to start with the absolutely jaw-dropping news that The New York Times deceptively edited a quote to make it appear that JD Vance opposes a national abortion ban. — @jessicavalenti.bsky.social

Last fall Clooney offered a proposal to help resolve the SAG strike. Even though the proposal dealt with his own union and industry, it was a nonstarter b/c it ignored basic aspects of the problem. Skeptical that his takes on electoral politics are better founded. www.thewrap.com/fran-dresche...

Biden is old, he stutters, he’s always been a gaffe machine, and he’s never been a facts wonk. But this is not a man in cognitive decline. He just isn’t.

I think this Biden press conference is mostly pretty strong. And the longer he goes on, the more comfortable and confident he seems.

Every time a billionaire urges Biden to drop out, I get more enthusiastic about voting for Biden. Fuck them billionaires! Unions love him, billionaires hate him, if I knew nothing else about him that would be enough to make up my mind lol www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Why are Democrats sticking with Biden? Ask the unions.www.washingtonpost.com Many of the nation’s most powerful unions confirm they are continuing to back President Biden, despite some faltering support after the debate.

i'm getting so, so tired of the doomerism on here, and the press loves covering shit like a horse race instead of explaining fundamentals and what's at play, a job that seems to fall to @golikehellmachine.com on here. so here's a thread about why i'd rather be biden — yes, biden — right now

Don’t let despair defeat you. There’s more of you than there is of them. They will try to break your spirit but there’s more of you than there are of them.

Not for nothing but the times running a single-sourcer that says "Biden recognizes that he can't fuck up like that again" amid a bunch of editorial slant does tend to make me think that Sulz is getting frustrated that it's not working. That's not even a good single-source backstab!

Well this tracks with the angry Facebook populous

Gotta say, even my largely politics-is-not-for-me relatives on Facebook are having a fucking conniption over the SCOTUS ruling. My uncle posted "We left England because we don't want a King. Charles is an inbred." I'm not sure what one has to do with the other, but he's right.

Not over. As someone alive before Chevron precedent, before legal abortion, before many things being flipped back in time existed, I can say you can fight this war&win it. Again. &this time, people have sunk costs&reaped benefits where before it was theoretical. They will feel&resent the loss.

The war is over. The bad guys won.

Great article

"Brats" further proves that celebs miss the point of media labels like "Brat Pack" and "Nepo Baby." A better doc would have explored what it feels like to wrestle with whether you’re a good actor or just famous, young and white. Instead, it's an empty, 90-minute rant www.huffpost.com/entry/brats-...

They Were The White-Hot Actors Of The '80s. Two Words Made Them Question That.www.huffpost.com The new documentary “Brats” attempts to take aim at a magazine narrative without recognizing the privilege of being young, white and famous.
