As things stand it’s not controversial to say Trump is in the lead but people should really try to remember that every Democratic operative has generalized anxiety disorder and every Republican operative is on coke

After decades of activism, Joe Biden’s administration finally was the one to ban USDA’s Wildlife Services division from deploying cyanide bombs on federal BLM lands. These things have killed pets and injured recreationists, and killing carnivores is bad policy anyway. Biden got it done.

i think the thing that is leading me to check out of the biden conversation as much as possible is the sheer amount of certainty being expressed. i am not at all confident that i really know anything here!

It's almost certainly true, and I think folks should go in with that assumption. It would be serious misconduct (by him and the administration separately) to release that statement if any of it were materially false

CRUCIAL from @jessicavalenti.bsky.social:

The leaked GOP platform says fetuses have a 14th amendment right to "personhood," a radical stance that inevitably leads to birth control bans

And despite bad headlines to the contrary, the GOP still supports a national ban.

They may also be aware that drug users (they want to ramp up the failed war on drugs), Black and Hispanic people, and straight trans women are at high risk. (Not that they see any difference between a straight trans woman and a gay man, but trans women are the group they most want in the camps)

Their overall goal is to boost the Domestic Infant Supply for the #adoption industry. Because liberals love adoption, this is the part that is not generally discussed.

Not incidentally, AACs strenuously promote #adoption and are often partnered with adoption agencies. They are focused more on this and less on providing pregnant people with resources to keep their children.

AACs are thoroughly predatory.

Google “Massachusetts crisis pregnancy” and this link pops up. It’s part of a statewide campaign, including public signage (highway billboards!), urging people to avoid crisis pregnancy/anti-abortion centers. The Commonwealth is not fucking around with this.

Among the many evils of "crisis pregnancy centers": they are not medical providers and so do not follow HIPAA or medical privacy ethics. Instead, they gleefully give away (to right-wing orgs) and sell (to data brokers) all information you give them. They should be illegal.

In sum: Cannon set two weeks of briefing on whether to hold briefing on the effect of the SCOTUS immunity decision on the Mar-a-Lago case. Assuming she decides yes (at some point), there then would be months of briefing before an actual decision on the effect. Then, applying it.

BREAKING: Judge Aileen Cannon halts some Trump deadlines in the Mar-a-Lago proceedings and creates a substantial delay in the case by setting a briefing schedule to precede deciding whether there will be supplemental briefing regarding the effect of Trump v. U.S. on the case.

The root of this problem lies in our dysfunctional electoral system where you don’t need the majority of votes to win power - EC allows minority presidents; Senate Dems represent 40MM more Americans but have a bare majority; WI Dems can win 50% of votes but GOP gets supermajority.
