Lenacapavir did so well at preventing HIV infection that it hit the threshold where the only ethical thing to do was stop the randomized trial and immediately offer it to literally every participant. That's huge news. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

NATO Summit in DC As Ukraine War Rages NY Times is on it 1) Biden's age didn't come up, but don't forget it 2) NATO leaders watched POTUS. Must be his age. 3) Biden did well, but it doesn't count 4) This doesn't matter. Remember the debate? Not a non-issue, but weird way to cover an int'l summit.

Given who has wound up on what side, maybe it’s time to reconsider whether you want to be: On the side with AOC, Bernie Sanders, and the Congressional Black Caucus. Or the side with the NYTimes editorial board, James Carville, and Cato Institution dudes.

Since the debate: Donald Trump has hidden from public view for 11 days. Joe Biden has done 18 public events — and counting.

The tweet you quote mentions lobbying $$$—AIPAC but also military contractors, which never get mentioned but seem like a big piece of the puzzle because they spend way more money on lobbying than AIPAC.

But Israel needs the US more than we need them. Why roll over and let them commit massive war crimes AND destabilize the region?

The discourse around biden needing more sleep is fully insane. Does no one remember "Executive Time," the thing Trump spent the majority(!) of his schedule on where he would just watch TV and tweet? Dude was categorically unable to fulfill any of the demands of the office and the press barely cared

This might be a crazy thing to ask/suggest, but is it possible Biden’s team did in fact give him something intended to make him more alert/sharp/aggressive (as the Trumpies had claimed they would), and it had the opposite effect (as these drugs sometimes do)? Because this is all just so weird.

“Otherwise” literally, etymologically, means “other way.” So, yeah, it extends the prohibition to anyone who in any OTHER WAY obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so.

This also reminded me of a GE commercial from (I guess) the 1990s that used to play during the Sunday morning news programs, which showed all the uses of electricity and ended with a baseball stadium being lit up at night. It was heroic, with a male (obvs) voiceover, and it brought tears to my eyes.

I have a question. Everyone talks about AIPAC, but the defense industry spends much more on lobbying, right? And they make soooo much money from Israel.

The donor class is pretty much the same in visual art, film, and theater—wealthy liberals who are often Jewish—but the progressive politics of the artists in each area are visual arts > film > theater.

Years ago, before the actual car made it onto the streets, I got my son a Hot Wheels cybertruck. I held onto it for a future “reward,” forgot all about it, and now I’m not sure I should ever give it to him. Unless I tell him it’s a bad guy car—he’s great at bashing his toys into smithereens.

Any climate activists abandoning Biden now are engaging in some one of the most foolish acts of political self-destruction I've ever witnessed. It's by far his greatest achievement, in a context where very few other politicians have made more than a cursory attempt to pass meaningful policy
