Another great dichotomy: Trump did his classic “I don’t know her” rebuff on Project 2025. It’s practically a running joke that Trump pretends he doesn’t know the people in his admin. THERE’S your contrast message. An executive so disconnected from his admin he regularly pretends they don’t exist.

NYT says their performance on Threads today was an aberration, & not indicative of deeper problems they've had with social media. Unfortunately, that hasn't satisfied many observers whose concerns are growing louder. The stakes are too high. For the good of the news, the Times should step aside

I’ve watched so much Jimmy McGovern and Paul Abbott tv I’m starting to sound Mancunian. Which is weird since I’m from Boston.

Strategic choices always. Don't vote with your heart. Vote with your head. 🙏🏼 this result holds. And, that UK/France/U.S. will all throw off the yoke of the most extreme right-wing

Belgian media is now reporting the same thing. 2 other polling institutes are independently projecting the same thing: a much weaker RN than expected, and Left bloc potentially in first place.

about once a week, i have to explain to someone on the phone that the police have no obligation to do anything for you and, even if their refusal literally leads to your murder, the courts have been clear that there's no case to pursue

A man has been using Facebook to terrorize his ex and their children. He brags about it: “I want her to worry about who’s waiting on the corner.” But police do nothing and nobody seems to take it seriously. Chilling story from Stacy St Clair and Joe Mahr www.chicagotribune.com/2024/07/07/f...

Exactly why I warned my daughter against boys who liked Trump and/or drove large trucks with even larger, stupid looking tires.

Do Republicans teach their children that cheating, lying, stealing, threatening & perpetrating physical violence, & enabling or committing sexual assault is good? Is that the behavior they expect & desire from their offspring? If yes, it would explain a lot. I’m honestly asking.

Leaving aside the journalists who are actual conservative activists (not insignificant), there's a lot of abuse-abuser dynamics here, with many "neutral" journalists taking on the role of enabler where they try to figure out what Dems have done to justify the abusive behavior from Republicans

It’s such a tell that one candidate is allowed to be old with his brains leaking out while the other is subjected to a weeks long whisper campaign to knee cap him out of the race because of a bad debate performance. Almost like there’s no principle at work beyond attacking Democrats.

I would fucking hope so. #mapoli www.bostonglobe.com/2024/07/07/m...

I cannot recommend this thread more highly. Alas it's on Twitter and the author hasn't imported it here, but it is superb. Part of it is below, but the entire thing is worth reading. x.com/drvolts/stat...

I know they get rolled all the time but for the Times to get rolled by “actually they just want to reclaim the values of Western civilization as they see it … with larger families and fewer immigrants” is the Times putting the 14 words in the paper

The Fourteen Words: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." There it is. Do not look away. This is what the fight is all about. White men and their incessant need for power, control and hierarchy.

Substantively, lib-owning is more important than feeding hungry kids. Perhaps even worse, politically lib-owning is more important than being able to take public credit for feeding hungry kids.

It's hard to communicate how radical this is. For 200 years every politician in America wanted the federal government to pay for things so they could take credit for it. It's a fundamental defining feature of American politics. But now owning the libs is more important. 1/2

The governors of a dozen Republican-led states — AL, AK, FL, GA, IA, MS, OK, SC, SD, TX, UT, WY — opted out of a new federal food assistance program, leaving about 9.5 million students without the aid this summer

I've been warning people that the media want to watch the world burn so that they can get clicks and views. It's kinda wild to watch them admit it openly.

This is the Capitol Hill reporter vibe on Twitter currently

I had a chat with the conservative mom of a friend today. We talked about a bunch of stuff and I learned several interesting things, among them, that religious conservatives are often PRO-CHOICE AND THINK THE SUPREME COURT IS INSANE. Run on Dobbs. Run on justices and court reform. Do it.

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.

If for any reason Joe Biden can't complete a 2nd term, we know who will take over. Her name is Kamala Harris and America already voted for her once. If Donald Trump can't complete a 2nd term, we have no idea who will take over because he TRIED TO HAVE HIS LAST VP MURDERED.

the problem, more often than we realize, is simply that they don’t believe anyone could really be that cartoonishly evil, and they’re looking around for any excuse to avoid confronting that as reality. “they can’t legally do that”, “that’s an extreme example”, “biased sources”, “misspoke,” etc
