agree but I think she’s got a better shot than Obama did in a similar part of the cycle
I don’t think AOC is all that likely to win a D primary, especially if Harris runs, but 1) it’s not impossible and 2) she’ll be on the VP shortlist for almost every candidate regardless

My contention is that *even assuming* Biden is a vastly weaker candidate than Harris, something that is at best contested and exaggerated, the left must be *extremely* careful about opening the door to a veto over candidate by large donors and the NYT editorial board.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

We need a statutory bivens cause of action. Let them sue and get this on the record.
They assaulted and injured a person, damaged a car, and then left. That’s not legal‼️

probably just a coincidence
This scheme to make passports harder to obtain comes as Republicans are trying to make passports one of the few documents that can be presented in order to be permitted to register to vote.

Middle-class Americans are selling their plasma to make ends meet
Last year, people in the U.S. made an estimated $4.7 billion selling their plasma. Donation centers are popping up in middle-class neighborhoods, including suburban strip malls and college towns.

American culture of the 1840’s would have been *very fucking surprised* to see the Irish considered as co-founders.
Elon’s an ahistorical dipshit, but its always worth saying some stuff out loud: if you‘re a fellow Irish-American and you aren’t 100% pro-immigrant, you’re a fucking embarassment.

1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.
