"I've seen it from the press." That was @JoeBiden speaking truth about where this attack is coming from. It's not coming from the voters, from the public, but from the privileged press.

Foreign policy is as subject to democratic debate as any other facet of policy no matter how upsetting Torygraph editors might find this, and it is normal for an entire community to feel that the current policy does not represent them.

When Johns Hopkins Hospital stopped masking, my otherwise really smart & experienced transplant nurse told me that COVID can't be airborne or they'd be required to keep wearing masks. The American healthcare system has been filled with "wash your hands to prevent a respiratory virus" misinformation.

I’d love to know (and share) what hospital is endangering its employees by prohibiting them from protecting their own health with masks

People are getting confused and thinking this means I think Joe Biden is the ideal candidate or that nobody else would do a better job - not true! I just think that decision was made four years ago and reversing it is a guaranteed path to utter catastrophe

Also pretty much ALL the comparative analysis I’m seeing is focusing exclusively on superficial appearances and how loud people talk. NOTHING about actual words and actions. You know, the things that MATTER. This is shallow and dumb and I’ve stopped taking anyone seriously if that’s their focus.

I gotta say that people are having a lot of trouble distinguishing cognitive decline (Trump) from age-related changes in expression (Biden). Biden is elderly and talks like it. Trump literally does not have preserved reality-testing

Also, Donald hasn’t been coherent the entire time he’s been a politician. He just babbles a word salad of racist buzzwords that his devotees project their own personal desires & hatreds upon. He just says it with enough confidence that it sounds good enough to be on the teevee.

Look at how The Times is positioning this. As they call for Biden's head but even before she might ascend to the candidacy, it's tearing down Harris. Doing her job is "trying to quiet her doubters." They write about the odds of success not the stakes of failure: fascism.

The Times refused to give Joe Biden credit for the stellar economy until now, when they acknowledge it could be "one obstacle" to Trump. The paper should be putting a thousand obstacles in the way of the rise of fascism. It finds only one.

I used to work in 911. Any leg wounds, but particularly above the knee, is potentially VERY serious. It's not all that hard to wound the femoral artery, and it would be easy to bleed out before help arrived.

With regard to former Sec. of Defense Mark Esper’s chilling account that then-President Trump wanted troops confronting protestors in Lafayette Park to “shoot them in the legs”, I’d love to hear someone ask the follow up question whether Trump understood that people would fall & get hit in torso.

No, my take was that cops should be required to carry individual malpractice insurance – pay settlements from that, watch rates rise based on risk, and price bad cops out of the profession

Live polling *as people was watching it* gave the advantage to Biden, simply because Trump is unlikable and Biden did not in fact do so horribly bad as media says. Most of this is hysteria planted after the fact. It's not based on reason.

Looks like you dropped a file in a folder with that path. You can technically leave the file there if you set a redirect at that path to the file, otherwise you need to move it up and remove the folder and give the file that same name

The Post merely reports that Biden holds a rally, not that he was powerful, strong, and defiant against the newspapers baying for his head. Then they put a stripe above the story with a call for him to resign. Their agenda is clear. This is a newspaper now run by Murdochians.

I wish I was joking. This fucker brags about how beating his kids is a form of “love”. He’s a big proponent of bringing back corporal punishment in schools. He talks about growing up abused by an alcoholic father to garner sympathy, while promoting the exact same shit.

The teleprompter attack on Biden is wild because Trump ran this playbook against Clinton in 2016, often from a teleprompter. It's amazing how many people who live and breathe this stuff have just totally forgotten...everything? Perhaps they need a cognitive screening?

I'm not. Everything they're doing is backing Trump, and the only reason he's showing any objection to it now is because people are reacting negatively. He fucking loves what Project 2025 is doing and he'll absolutely use it. He just doesn't want bad press.
