Josh Marshall out here being comfortable with ambiguity.

"I’ve spent most of the day thinking that Joe Biden has very much not ended this “drop out” question — which I... thought he had... — and thinking that withdrawing... may be the least worst bad option"

Essential reading: "70% of voters believe that abortion should be legal in “most or all cases,” up from 64% just a year ago.
61% of respondents say that people should be able to get an abortion if 'the person does not want to be pregnant for any reason.'”

Useful idiots helping Trump sell the "softened on abortion" absurdity. "The RNC is trading Lila Rose for Amber Rose. Pro-life for pro-abortion. Live Action for Slut Walk."

If I were an immensely fat Black guy who routinely stands in front of all-white backgrounds, I simply would not explicitly threaten liberals' lives in a state where 1M liberals have deer rifles.

Wisconsin judge just struck down parts of Act 10.

This is the anti-labor law that Scott Walker championed in 2011, rocking Wisconsin politics and prompting recalls and national attention: www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...

Yeah! If Wout wins, that would also be a standing-screaming-at-the-TV-level delight. I'm ignoring the Belgian I think you mean because I'm too old to root against any of these kids. If Remco wins I'll applaud him for his talent, and you for your prediction. Cheers!

Redemption for Groenewegen. Now, if Primoz and Jonas can go one-two tomorrow, the 2024 season will be a complete joy.

The thing that worries me most about freaks like this is they think they have all the guns, so if they ever decide to go beyond threats, only libs bleed. That mistake might let a genie out of the bottle that we won't put back for years.

Will gave me the expression, "perfectly execrable" (I'm sure he borrowed it from someone else) which I've been using in all my texts since Monday. In all the years I subscribed to WaPo, it was the only phrase of his that had any value at all.

Josh Marshall being reasonable: I’ve seen a few commentators say they owe us a conversation about whether Biden’s up to the rigors of a campaign. I disagree. They owe us a decision. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/a-few...

I hate to sound hopeful since that's out of fashion at the moment, but the Supremes probably planned to release the immunity decision tomorrow to bigfoot the bad news about Trump's performance. So the execrable fucks at the Court may shit on their own candidate in the morning. Or so I hope.

I didn't watch because I forgot to buy two bottles of Glenlivet. But, I just turned on MSNBC and Wallace is talking about Biden "releasing his delegates." I don't know what I missed, but I'm superfucking stabby. Fuck you, Nicolle, you interloper.

Wanna know a super interesting thing I learned today while putting up shade cloth over my gardens? Some black widow spiders are a fetching brown color. Very pretty. And, yes, I googled brown widows and this wasn't that.

Sobering stuff from Hausfather: Its time to start talking about the carbon debt, the amount of carbon that will have to be removed by our children and future generations if we ever want to return to the climate of our past.

More on the Florida situation: The public insurer is the largest and its total exposure has grown to $517 billion. It collected just $4 billion in premiums for that exposure.

Republican governance going to wipe out mortgage/insurance industries in Florida, so that's nice.

“Our research shows that lax regulation and monitoring of property insurers makes Florida mortgage markets far more exposed to climate risk than people might think"

The draft... would reinstate a lower court order allowing abortion under emergency circumstances. It kicks the can on an important abortion decision but would be, for now, a win for the Biden administration.
