Hey! Remember Republicans saying "Obamacare will make death panels to kill your grandma!"? Then you should probably go check out chapter 14 of the Project 2025 manifesto. Because every Conservative/Republican accusation is a confession.

It's not every day that senators ask the attorney general to appoint a special counsel to criminally investigate a sitting Supreme Court justice.

What's more, the case against Clarence Thomas is quite credible. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Project 2025? Oh, you mean "Trump's Project 2025" or "The GOP's Project 2025". Ya gotta tag 'em, folks. Hang that shit around their necks, so people aren't confused.

Important to remember that Trump didn’t convince anyone to become a garbage person, he just showed them it was ok to let the whole world know how cruel, pitiless and devoid of empathy they could be

If Biden said something like this it would spell the end of not only his campaign but his current tenure. It's just one of countless examples of insane gibberish from Trump that the press & Democrats are choosing to treat as an immutable part of the electoral landscape rather than a story or issue.

I think the @nytimes.com is just too old to be covering politics now. Its ability to handle the rigor and complexity of modern campaigns is obviously not there anymore. Put it out to pasture so younger newspapers can do the job.

It seems to me the NYT (and WH Press for that matter) should have cross-referenced the dates of Dr. Cannard’s visits w/ the president’s schedule. On the second of the supposed 8 dates, 8/25/23, Biden wasn’t at the WH for any of that day. He was at Tom Steyer’s place in Tahoe that whole week.

At the risk of posting something stupefyingly obvious: If you're among those canceling a New York Times or Washington Post subscription, I guarantee you have a great nonprofit media outlet or local paper in your area that could use some revenue. And that coverage is absolutely vital right now.

They're doing major renovations at work & one day I looked out to see a guy strapping down the porta-johns. Over the top, tied to a big metal stake in the ground. "Is there a big storm coming? Or maybe he's had enough of Jerry's "jokes", I don't know."

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

All of the people indulging in these fantasy Democratic primary scenarios think that people vote reflexively because it’s what they themselves do; they don’t realize that turnout is a product of hard work. Unseen, unheralded work. By unseen, unheralded people.
