apparently in a Zoom with leadership, the ranking Dems on Administration (Joe Morelle), Armed Services (Adam Smith), and Veterans' Affairs (Mark Takano) said they want Biden to step aside, and the ranking Dems on Intelligence (Jim Himes) and Oversight (Jamie Raskin) were skeptical of Biden's chances
Lloyd Doggett can just kind of spout off because he's realistically never getting the W&M gavel he wants and has no allies or protégés who need protecting, Grijalva is still ranking on Natural Resources and in line to get his gavel back if Dems take the House in November

I like that Macron apparently planned on throwing the election to the far-right but never bothered checking to make sure his own party wouldn't ruin the plan by doing a popular front with the left, which they did

JUST IN: Polls closed in France. Exit polls show surprise: —Left coalition (New Popular Front) projected first. (!) —Far-right (RN) has lost its bid to take power. Anti-RN front appears to have worked very well. —No bloc close to majority. Follow this 🧵 for results and more:

Compare this to when Trump says something like “we’re gonna catch Goofy and execute him for his crimes folks” and people in the press go “Mr. Trump seemingly analogized criminals to a Disney character as he called for harsher legal penalties”
what are we doing here? he accidentally said million instead of billion and then immediately knew it and corrected himself. he didn’t “flub a line” and then “make an effort to correct himself,” he did the speaking equivalent of a typo that you know you’ve made and instantly correct

Biden should resign because you have to admit it would be really funny for future historians to have to explain what "coconut-pilled" means

I feel like the main difference between a Welsh politician named Lord Wigley and a British politician named Lord Wigley is that the Welsh guy has a funny name while the British one has hunted human beings on his estate

the UK is less than 40% reported and the Lib Dems have already flipped more seats than they held prior to the election lol

I only like Kamala ironically and i'm still unironically offended on her behalf by the talk of throwing it to an open convention like...she has been Dems' #2 for four years now! she has way more small-d democratic legitimacy than someone chosen at the last minute by a contested convention lol

this is an eccentric personal injury lawyer who gets elected to two terms as governor of Florida as a Democrat, but leaves office midway through the second term because of a memorably weird sex scandal involving an employee and at least one tape

at least the Clinton team had the excuse that her loudest critics never gave her just one attack to rebut, it was always an unfocused torrent of abuse and innuendo. every critic of Biden from good faith to bad is focused on one thing—Joe Biden is 81 years old—and that's too much for them to handle

Grijalva has his own little machine in Tucson and it's widely assumed that he's going to eventually try to hand his House seat off to his daughter, who chairs the county board of supervisors. there's some actual risk for him in saying this
And there’s the second House Dem to call for Biden to step aside .

a key reason Biden won Georgia is that Trump almost uniformly dove off a cliff in 2020 with voters near major military installations and Georgia (especially outside of metro Atlanta) is full of them
Lot of people on here seem to assume that the US military is basically as bad as US police when it comes to “being totally dominated by frothing MAGA freaks.” This is absolutely NOT the case.

This isn't a real concern before the convention. Officially, the parties have not nominated their candidates yet. That's why Ohio forced the Democrats to move up the official nominating roll call. It's that roll call, not the primaries, that determines who has the Democratic line on the ballot.
Harris may poll better against Trump, but it doesn’t matter if Heritage can ensure she isn’t on the ballot in states where the filing deadline is passed.
