1. She was the only person legally eligible to the Biden war chest, campaign infrastructure, field offices, staffers etc whereas anyone else would have had to start from scratch with just 107 days *before* a convention?

2. Her job was literally to take over in case anything happened to him?
Obama feebly tried to stage an open convention. That would have been much, much better.

It was never clear to me why Democrats rallied around Harris so immediately, except for some weird notion on appearing unified.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Imagine saying with a straight face that you can have “actual disagreement” with the American nazi party.

Like abortion & lgbt+ rights, the VRA, the indiscriminate rounding up of immigrants, the illegal murders off-shore, the attacks on healthcare and welfare, these are cool things to “disagree” on
Republicans can often sense I have actual values and beliefs while we both realize that Corporate Democrats are following checks and doing whatever their handlers tell them to do.

We can have an actual disagreement based on something tangible rather than just gamesmanship.

UPDATE: Sergio is on his way back to America to be with his family where he belongs.

He should have never been unlawfully kidnapped & deported.

This is why we fight for our neighbors and stand up for their right to due process.
Sergio Mejia's deportation is a brazen violation of his right to due process.

Despite having his immigration case pending, he was stolen from his three children and unlawfully deported.

The Trump Admin. must return him NOW and stop trampling on our constitutional rights.

We sent a clear message to Donald Trump and Republicans on November 4, and Tennessee, you have an opportunity to do it again.

In this piece, @aselrod.bsky.social reminds us that Nick Fuentes and Tucker Carlson are trafficking in the vilest forms of male supremacy and are flourishing as huge stars on the right, so there's clearly a huge following for that sort of depravity:

its moments like this, where you can tell who hates Trump with everything in their heart and soul, and who really wishes they could trick Orange Daddy around to being on their side tee-hee-hee wouldn't that be great.

I don't want Trump to do anything, I want him in prison.

I think this should get more media attention, but it won't. People are just going to find out the hard way.

Kinda crazy that Mamdani had a good time with a rapist and pedophile and people are cool with it

We've gone from demonizing a lady because she was in the *same room* as Trump to praising Mamdani for getting a pat on the arm and overt praise from Trump.

Absolutely wild stuff.

The Trump administration has a new mass deportation playbook.

We’ve seen it in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Charlotte. And it’s coming to more cities.

This is insane.

Last month it was the Young Republicans praising Hitler. Last week it was Fuentes & Carlson criticizing "Jewry". This week, they're saying swastikas and nooses aren't hate speech. The rot is party-wide. www.seattletimes.com/nation-world...
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

It annoys me when nominal support for LGBT rights is used instrumentally to push for clout or unrelated goals. But I *really* hate it when it’s treated as basically a cringe bourgeois affectation, whether it be the right, left, or center that’s pulling out that old canard.
