One thing I love is how every single person on Twitter thinks Harris could improve her polls by “actually campaigning” without realizing that Biden is in fact actually campaigning. The problem is you’re in a media bubble that ignores him in favor of a narrative, and it’ll probably ignore her too

important context here that may be lost on readers in other demographics: AKAs are the most terrifyingly hyper-competent women on earth. If they think something's a bad idea, it is. Kamala Harris is VP in no small part *because* she's AKA.

CNN reporter Eva McKend spent the day at the Alpha Kappa Alpha convention in Dallas, where VP Kamala Harris spoke, and was hard-pressed to find a single Black voter, even among Harris mega-fans, who thought it was a good idea to push President Biden off the ticket. 🧵: x.com/evamckend/st...

Coming back to this point. Let's say the party/Biden say hey 'OK we're replacing Joe'. Do we know every procedural step the GOP could take to slow down the process? The crux of J6 was to slow a normally non-exciting part of the transfer of power.

I saw a thing that studies of drivers show they'll drive closer to a cyclist they perceive of female, literally affording her less space on the road, and cut her off more than a male cyclist

that really isn't true, it's just something pop culture keeps repeating. a well-fitting corset wasn't restricting and very few people actually did tightlacing in real life.

Also worth noting: Trump's Project 2025 wants to set lifetime caps on Medicaid. Meaning if you're poor and sick, once you pass a certain level of coverage, Trump would leave you to die.

Ah, FB memories serving up some winners. This is what an itemized $1,330,000 NICU hospital bill looks like (only 96 days to get there). The apple is there for scale. Here’s why I share it. Too many ppl don’t know abt lifetime caps and pre-existing bans. Bc the STILL-VULNERABLE ACA banned them.

I have deep ties to the yoot community both in major cities and flyover exurbs and I just don't see any signs. In 2016 teen shitheads in maga hats were running rampant in schoolyards. the only unprompted political sentiment I've seen from young people this year has been about gaza and student loans

the big pew poll had voters under 26 at R+30. that's a 60 point swing in a year! I simply do not think it's true!

the timeless story of comfy white suburbanites becoming dimly aware of a problem, uttering a trumpian decree on how it should be solved, barging into a pre-existing movement and screeching with outrage that there's opposition and obstacles before quitting the whole effort in an "I-told-you-so" sulk.

"not good enough yet" is worlds away from "absolute denial and neglect." what a revolting insult to all the doctors, researchers, and activists working on those diseases. you might find the world less frightening if you approached it as an adult instead of a tantruming child.

everything you hated about 90s/00s democrats was them running rightward in terror after getting steamrollered by Reagan in the 80s. The modern party *has* changed. So many once-radical ideas are now so mainstream you don't even notice. Obama choked on endorsing gay marriage less than 10 years ago.

"What the report finds is that Biden held on to 94% of the people who said they would support him before the debate. For Trump, 86% of people who said they would support him before the debate said they would do so after the debate."
