In a normal campaign, this would have dominated the weekend’s news. I wrote about @gregsargent.bsky.social’s scoop about the Christian nationalist GOP nominee for NC Gov calling for murder of his political enemies: ‘Some folks need killing’: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

what if - instead of attempting to ban porn and end internet anonymity in the name of “protecting children” - we actually protected them by making sure they have enough to eat

Meanwhile eight states, seven Democratic trifectas (CA, CO, MA, ME, MI, MN, NM) and Vermont, took a lesson from the pandemic and made universal free school meals permanent.

The logistics of de-nominating Biden and then nominating Harris are already incredibly risky. The logistics of nominating anyone else, at this point, are so undeniably unworkable that suggesting it makes it clear you do not understand the American political system and shouldn't write about it.

Must feel incredible to know you are personally responsible for blocking a fascist from office

OH, a big result: Marine Le Pen's *sister* has LOST her bid to join Parliament. She led 40% to 26% in Round 1. Her left opponent won by 0.5%. (Macronist, who came in 3rd, initially said she wouldn't drop out but then changed her mind. Ended up blocking Le Pen.)

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.

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.

Project 2025 itself should be a big I ongoing story, and the Trump bigwigs lying about having nothing to do with it should be a big story on top of that. Instead the media is gonna accept the disavowal at face value and write another story about Biden being old.

Stephen Miller now following Trump's lead and saying he has nothing to do with Project 2025. 1. His organization is on the Project 2025 advisory board. 2. He recorded a video as part of Project 2025 training tools 3. You can see Mandate for Leadership, the Project 2025 publication in the background

As a side note, this is John McEntee, Trump's Director of White House Personnel and the primary architect of Project 2025. On Tik Tok he said he gives counterfeit bills to homeless people so they will be arrested when they go to spend them.

Hey, remember how librarians and I were warning everyone that mass book-banning is just step one of a fascist government takeover? Well, some of the same book-banning orgs we warned you about are on the advisory board for Project 2025, whose leader calls it a "second American Revolution.”

Hey @figgityfigs.bsky.social I just realized something about the Biden interview yesterday but first some information. A prime time 3 minute ad spot costs about 11 million. Biden lists his accomplishments over and over during this ABC interview. This interview is aimed at the people that Biden needs

When is The New York Times going to start talking about Project 2025? It's the biggest breaking news in America right now and the NYT is mum? What's up with that?

Imagine if some media outlets spent just half the time they spend talking about Biden being old as they did informing the public about Trump’s Project 2025.

I gotta say that people are having a lot of trouble distinguishing cognitive decline (Trump) from age-related changes in expression (Biden). Biden is elderly and talks like it. Trump literally does not have preserved reality-testing

You know what? Go on about Biden's age and debate performance. Me? I'll focus on the existential threat that Donald Trump and his minions represent. We all have limited time and energy. Do you really want to spend July and August talking about Biden's infirmity? Do you really think this is helping?

Just watched the Biden interview. There's no comparison between him and Trump. None. He's not the guy I want but he's still the guy I'll vote for.
