I don't think Chuck Todd fully appreciates what he's admitting to here, assuming it's true. I've never understood why a journalist would agree to talk with a politician off the record and this is exactly why. You held onto newsworthy information from a top official for two years.

One of conservatives top priorities is denying kids the message that they have control over their own bodies and their own sexuality because that makes it harder for pedocons like Trump to get away with raping them

Never forget that during the Kavanaugh hearings, Ben Shapiro angrily complained that some evidence being used as part of the background investigation phase of a congressional hearing was "hearsay".

By definition, anyone that purports to be on the left, yet endorses and defends Genocide Joe, is not actually on the left. At best, they are neoliberal. At worst, they are right wing careerists that have appropriated leftist language for the purposes of containing and suppressing the actual left.

A ton, arguably most, of Biden’s problems are of his own making but one thing that I don’t think is his fault is he won largely as a referendum on ever having to think about Trump again and now four years later people have to think about him more than ever

It’s funny how American screenwriting courses seem to be full of edicts to elide any scene that doesn’t ‘move the story forwards’, yet every other episode of ‘prestige TV’ is an hour-long flashback focussing on the backstory of why a minor character wears a particular hat.

His wife is a billionaire-family Indian heiress, he's a former investment banker, and they have a large home in California. Also, hes barely a politics person, he mainly did the finance jobs before he was PM...the insinuation for a while has been that they barely cared and were waiting to leave.
