Once again the nation's eyes will turn to Illinois.
Once again the media will turn to a bunch of coastal bros and fossils to explain it to them.

She was a genius at what she did. RIP.
Oh man, this one hurts.
Catherine O’Hara was an absolute comic genius. Just so sharp and always calibrated perfectly to the moment.
Gone way too young.
Rest in peace, you brilliant star.

However the @nytimes.com insisted keeping the algorithm that cranks out 90% of Brooks' tedious, awful, "Both Sides Do It" columns.
david brooks has been a hack for decades who has written column after column at ny times that was eviscerated the moment they hit "publish." -- he has been awarded with a plum contract at the atlantic. because in the world of the media, nothing fails upwards like a conservative straight white man.

🧵 The people of Minnesota, especially Renee Good and Alex Pretti, have shown that American democracy still has a lot of strength left within it.
But the battle is far from over. The US is in a liminal moment, a time of transition. We can do this, but there's much to know and to do.

I think at least 90% of Republican voters believe this. As Big Lies go, it's practically replaced "Trump won in 2020."
Trump as his speech is interrupted by a demonstrator: "You do know they are paid agitators, right? They get paid. These are all paid agitators, that's all they are. They get paid. They're paid insurrectionists. They're sickos."
