If you’ve never seen Dorothea Lange’s photographs of the World War II internment camps and the Japanese-Americans who were imprisoned there, today is a good day to see them and to commit to making sure this never happens again.

It really is making *me* feel crazy to see a bunch of other Democrat voters running around screaming about how Biden is now unelectable, on the basis of one bad debate and an incredibly obvious ratfucking campaign by America’s most craven newspaper.

Seems like it should be pretty easy for the Dems to simultaneously affirm Biden’s place at the top of the ticket *and* start getting Harris in front of the camera more ASAP to reinforce her competence & bona fides & send the message that you’re voting for both of them. What am I missing.

It's hard not to imagine California, as 1/10th the US pop and easily the biggest economic center, just saying "no" to a rigged election that disregarded the will of its people. You think WA and OR wouldn't join in? That's possibly the largest crisis in our history.

It's really the downside of any strongman. If the people don't believe in the validity of laws because they are nebulous, arbitrary, or simply ignored, then they can't be governed (or not for long, anyway). It's a self-defeating proposition.

At the very least, history is not kind to unelected leaders who thumb their nose at the citizenry. Treating laws and norms as simply words on paper erodes all authority, even their own.

The reason pundits like the contested convention thing is that it plays to their vanities: what if the smart people made a meritocratic decision about who’s best? This is driven, in part, by being mostly isolated from negative reactions to their opinions over the years.

That stacks as the reaction to the perceived lawlessness. The general vibe is "no cops!" and that manifests differently for different people. Some people run red lights, some people strap up before getting groceries.
