I cannot emphasize enough that straight reporting in the NYT should be verified elsewhere if you want to be sure about it. The standards are appalling.

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

one of the few people who can actually claim to have experienced this election unmediated is Aaron Rupar, and the experience seems to have infused him with the light of Biden Juche

Ultimately it’s almost impossible to find people having unmediated reactions to major news events, it would require someone to be engaged enough to witness the thing itself and then ignore the avalanche of coverage that inevitably follows. That’s roughly nobody, give or take a few

Yeah I did that some time around November last year & I haven't really looked back since.

I hope when Netanyahu gets to the US he gets the same quality of secret service protection we afford our former Presidents and presidential candidates

Folks in Reno please be on the lookout, this poor lady lost all three of her beloved cats when her vindictive ex surrendered them (w/o proper proof of ownership) behind her back. Link below.

It is comically irresponsible how the news media claims Trump is a "changed man" and "somber" and "serene" and "adopting a new tone"

What if instead of running on your opponent or running on your record, you ran on the Secret Third Thing That Wins Elections?

This happens to me semi-regularly with aborted approaches into Logan. Legit teeth rattling if it's something big like a 767 or A330.

averages were only 72% successful in the 2022 election cycle. amazingly, this is from the 538 propaganda article arguing that they were really, really good. what % of house seats were even competitive? you're telling me you got 72% _including_ all the safe seats?!

How much coverage have you seen of the fact the stock market is currently at an all-time high? What percentage of Americans are aware of this fact? Why or why not?

For people still defending Nate Silver in 2024, do y’all remember in his late days at 538 when his answer to criticism about including GOP ratfuck polls was that Dems were free to submit their own ratfuck polls, and the fact that they hadn’t was a data point in the GOP’s favor?

not for nothing but I expressed to my mother the other day that I had some doubts about Biden's health during the debate but no longer did, and she damn near bit my head off for doubting. truly continue to think that backlash with the elders is a risk of running against Biden's age.

I bring this up a lot but Obama was down more than that in October 2012. After a bad first debate no less!
