Ordinary Rendition

This is what this Yale-educated corporate lawyer thinks people want.

folks, he's running

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

It's a real problem that so many people anywhere left of center in this country think that the path to victory for them lies in electing Republicans until Democrats do exactly what they tell them to.

It's very funny how no one has talked about the Michigan governor's race in months and now AES is winning by the same margin.

BREAKING: The 9th Circuit rules 2-1 to dismiss DOJ's effort to force California to remove 20,000 purported noncitizens from the voter rolls based on data CA officials view as faulty. Majority: Bennett (Trump) Sanchez (Biden) Minority: Bumatay (Trump) storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Absolutely breaking my heart to see MN-01 below the line here. We need a better congressional delegation.

People literally do this all the time, and if both candidates are actually antisemitic "vote for the least bad one" is exactly the right move.

Uh huhhhhh

Why won’t Dems talk about this?

A huge loss.

This kind of stuff can be important for some kids, but staying on top of it all is neither trivial nor a lot of fun for the parents. It's a significant chunk of what I use AI for and I'm not ashamed of that at all.

Brazilians beat back fascism by... voting harder? Organized offline and online around an election, using a mix of strategies aimed at both turnout and persuasion. Showed up in large numbers, and despite some very wealthy interests arrayed against them, succeeded? Huh. Pretty neat how that works.

Anthropic cumulative operating loss since inception is only $12 billion and at their current run rate operating margin they will completely recoup that loss by Q1 27 even if revenue is flat. So much for “these companies will never make money” lmao

Thank you, ladies.

I keep getting mailers like this. So funny.

Lol

Because there are 10s of thousands of Democratic electeds in the United States, and you have positioned yourself directly into a media environment that is designed to find every statement a Democrat makes that is even vaguely transphobic as soon as it happens.

turns out that voting is a very good way to kick right wing authoritarians out of power

between serbia, brazil, and hopefully november 3, a good reminder: voting works it’s not the end, there’s always work to be done after the vote, but if you want to beat the motherfuckers and keep them out of power: vote your asses off

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

See? There is no secret “defeat fascism once and for all” belief system. You just do the work, every election. Far left, center left, it doesn’t matter. Learn the lesson: Stop pretending you’re special and just fucking vote for Democrats.

We don’t know if the early vote will be predictive because all Republicans could just be waiting to vote until Election Day. But what this means in practice is that to win, Trump/GOP will have to have the most successful EDay mobilization operation in modern history— and that it’s completely stealth

"Democrats don't want Southern Black communities to be able to vote" is one of the most detached-from-reality statements imaginable

I disagree with this - I think the reason that this hits is that he's not out there all the time.

Is there anything else unifying the states that have done this, anything at all

This must hit so hard if you are both stupid and an asshole.

PIG PIG PIG

Minnesota walk-off FG win over Iowa. PJ Fleck might eat the bronze pig.

Axe. Jug. Floyd.
