When Vanity Fair asked Trump Jr. for comment, his spokesman replied, "You people are a bunch of retards."
Scoop: As federal health agencies are gutted, Kyle Diamantas, a Florida attorney w/ a slim resume + no prior gov't experience, is the new head of food safety at @US_FDA. Turns out, he's Donald Trump Jr.'s hunting buddy, @vanityfair.com is reporting exclusively: www.vanityfair.com/news/story/f... /1

Today in hot takes that I didn't think were hot takes: please stop calling MAGAs stupid. It's ableist, ridiculously counterproductive, and feeds directly into the eugenicist ways of thinking I've been warning against from the right side. Thank you!

Erie County, PA: I've been making this type of chart (turnout vs. vote share per precinct) for many counties in PA but am absolutely baffled by this one. Erie is a bellwether county that has predicted the president in every election since 1980. I have not rounded any calculations in this chart.

Here's something interesting: Let's look at democratic stronghold cities. These charts show how well a candidate did based on precinct turnout. Notice that Harris is consistently concentrated towards the top of the vote shares...except in Philly where something odd happens......

I don’t know if this is the plan. But if it is, let me rain on that parade.
Elon will never allow Democrats to win the mid-terms. If the plan is not to get him out of our govt systems now, it’s a wrap.

The Democratic “plan” is to “not get distracted” as Trump seizes Treasury, purges the FBI and the military, and completely defies all laws limiting himself, and then win back the House in 2026 by talking about inflation. It’s an awful plan.

Just because you do not like Trump or Musk or Fetterman does not give you license to be ableist towards them. Defending ableism towards them makes you no better than Rs who made racist/sexist/ageist comments about Harris and Biden.

Why is the MAGA reply to "hey this thing DJT is doing is awful" always "well Kamala and Biden and Obama did the same awful thing"? It doesn't make the thing any less awful.

@gregpalast.bsky.social Voter purges can't explain this in NC: Out of all the precincts this percent voted Harris equal to or more often than the D superintendent candidate:
Election day: 8.1%
Early vote: 16.8%
Absentee: 65%
Prov: 75.6%
Total: 11.1%
2020 Election day Biden's % was 50.4%.

Though I feel this article is unnecessarily dismissive of the possibility of a hack in addition to vote suppression, it does confirm what I have been saying about suppression as a crucial attack vector in the 2024 election.

Friends, do not fall for "you get what you voted for" rhetoric when it comes to the Latine community and ICE raids. There is a very fair chance that they really did not vote for this and that attacking the Latine vote was setting a trap to make dems placid towards ICE.

(Look at the huge spikes for each candidate and how amendment 4 votes "complete" the bell curve. Common sense would dictate that AB rights would more closely follow the respective candidates but they do not)

(yes, for those of you following along at home, in 2024 in 65-35 🔵 Wake County, Harris gets more votes than the democratic candidate for superintendent in ZERO precincts. Out of 238. Trump gets less than R candidate in 1 precinct by 3 votes.)
