Anyway, HRC and Harris failed to win an election. Whatever you think of their politics, they are not inherent failures.

The very discourse of failure proves the truth of Michelle Obama's point. The United States is nowhere near ready for a woman to be President.

Hey so.

Lots of people reading your hot takes on Bubba are gay or bi. There are lots of jokes to be made--Clinton is RIGHT THERE--but if the best you've got is 101 basic bitch homophobia, got some bad news for you about you.

the question is relentlessly

"should this man be allowed to do crimes, for he is a Great Man or a Rich Man or a Powerful Man, whatever shall we do without him"

and not

"what lives has he destroyed, what has he robbed the world of"

or even

"who are we, if we give money/power/status to monsters"

Senator Menendez is sitting in his cell at Allenwood right now because he took a 1kg gold bar from the Egyptians, among other forms of “lobbying.”
"It was tough to beat Apple, but the Swiss did it." said one administration official.

How the Swiss convinced Trump to drop tariffs with gifts of a Rolex desk clock and a 1 kg gold bar.

To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

As a former Partner, I cannot stress how deeply needed this union is. Do not cross the line! Support your baristas!
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Thread. Up and down.

And with ethanol, given the amount of fossil fuel inputs required to grow the corn (both anhydrous ammonia produced from natural gas, and fuel inputs for the machinery) to the amount of produced energy, it’s usually at best a wash or more efficient to not grow the corn at all.
It goes even deeper than this. The vast bulk of red state agriculture is corn, soybeans or seed crops.

And most of it is not for US human consumption! We export 20% of our corn, half of our soybean and seeds. The rest?

Most of it becomes oil, animal feed or….ETHANOL.

The subsidized fuel additive.
Half the fruits and vegetables in the US come from California, 75% of the nuts. The flyover states like to pretend they do much
