I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel, "as ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal”

Say what you will about the various Democratic party actors in the fight over whether Biden stays on the ticket, but I can understand all of their behavior much better than I can the journalists who are trying to write their way into the camps

A deal: I will pay an extra set of dues to my progressive national security organization for every person you let me kick out of it.

Joe Biden refusing to take advice from people who have been wrong about everything for decades could be seen as an indication his brain is still working

okay, so [click-clacks on an old timey adding machine] 1.8% of House democrats are calling for Biden to step down... seems excessive to keep cutting to it and reading their statements as 'breaking news'

You've heard me say it a thousand times. When you're a president or a governor, YOUR PEOPLE ARE YOUR POLICY. Therefore, it should speak volumes that this is one of the guys that the other guy picked to pick his people.

It’s pretty alarming how the reporters suddenly devoted to watchdogging Biden can’t tell the difference between real drastic glitches like in the debate and normal fumbling

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

It's really hard to wrap your brain around the idea that the US Supreme Court just unilaterally amended the Constitution to immunize the first president who tried to unlawfully retain office after losing the election. That's what actually happened, not some alarmist fever dream.

CNN chyron right now reads "TRUMP TEAM LAYING LOW, WANTS BIDEN UNCERTAINTY TO REMAIN THE STORY." Somebody tell the production room that the "WE'RE DOING OUR BEST TO HELP" part got cut off.

This man is making his evil intentions as crystal-clear as they possibly could be, and everyone who cares about humanity should be blasting that message out in every possible venue.

It’s a very obscure question but I did some research and it turns out that the president who led us out of the Depression and kicked Hitler’s ass was actually in a wheelchair? Who knew?

They are not, correct. We can do better at administering both VA and DoD programs. I’m an Afghanistan/Iraq vet, have 25 years in uniform, have worked on a DoD budget, and ran veterans outreach for a successful governor’s campaign. I have a keener sense than most about how it all gets abused.
