I'll never not remember him as Genocide Joe. Pair this against a few nice policies he did domestically and... just don't. Funding war crime stands alone. It is not a relative matter.

In the time I went to the pub to cheer England beating Netherlands in the Euros, Biden odds dropped to 13/2 against Trump and Harris is now in the 5/1 odds spot.

Perhaps the last few weeks are fitting. Biden refused to have any media improvement strategy over the past four years β no plan for helping local media, for the FCC, for taking on NYT, or stopping Musk acquisition β and now itβs that same media thatβs his nemesis.

"The whole fear about ChatGPT and the creation of imagery is, I think, fear based on the fact that we live in a world where everything is up for grabs," Errol Morris told generative AI reporter Andrew Deck. "Everything is manipulated, everything is challenged, everything is endlessly falsified."

Bookies shifted Biden's chance of winning the presidency from 5/1 this morning to 7/1 this afternoon. Updated his chances for the nomination from 1/2 to 8/11 in that period. He's likely the nominee, the presidency remains a long shot.

Democrats can be honest, I argue β as they are in private β or they can spend the next four months looking voters in the face and falsely claiming that Joe Biden is fit to serve until January 2029. www.salon.com/2024/07/10/d...

Sullivan & Cromwell's dodgy looking work with crypto exchange FTX led to an investigation and many inquiries into how it handled their bankruptcy proceedings and how it possibly tried to pump customers before FTX collapsed. No wonder it's going into the culture war industry, It's what shysters do.

I enjoy that people are bigging up Project 2025 now. It's been available for a while, and so technically "not news" but it's being covered again when it's really more relevant because it's being raised as an issue by the campaign. That's how you leverage the news cycle. It's not rocket science.

Remind your weird MAGA relatives what creepy company they keep and that you associate with them and maybe think they are them, because they probably are.

It cannot be stressed enough that adjusting the size of the Supreme Court in the 19th c. was a serious solution to serious concerns about how the Court functioned. As @earlymodjustice.bsky.social points out, reform often addressed imbalances. And these imbalances were often about REPRESENTATION. 1/

Not here for debate, so you can have the last word if you feel like it. Attempted point scoring or browbeating is not going to be a path to winning anything. It will just convince those folks to stay home. There are no MAGAs to convert, only lost voters to recover. The campaign will adapt or die.

It was only a matter of time. A case study in how supposed "Biden supporters" can go for ego and self-righteousness and just alienate potential voters the campaign will be gagging for when its time to win an election. I'm a "Genocide Joe" lefty. Changing this system is multi-pronged and a long game.

It's easier to imagine a coherent, concerted opponent rather than it is to accept a bunch of people doing things because they think those things are what their bosses want or that have sort of worked in the past.

In the end, the bank disappeared and she was paying $165k instalments to some lady in Moscow to not get her legs broken or something and still lost the election.
