My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

it's stunning the way you almost forget how many opportunities this corrupt mess of a country had to put an unremarkable grifter away before he could do significant harm

His interaction log with groNk has to be insane
reminded me of a matt groening "life is hell" comic strip about very stupid kid at school trying to come across as a brainiac via slinging insults like 'you are in fact a grade A piece of what is to be known as prime baloney'

Even the nonbelievers are praying each night for the good health of the basketball alien
Victor Wembanyama leads the NBA in blocked shots at 3.9 blocks per game.
That would be the highest tally this century if he keeps up the pace.

Oh no! Sounds ROUGH. Thoughts and fucking prayers that they can find the space to heal and recover from this.
Publicly, Dems projected a unified front for 40 days.
But behind the scenes, they were anything but together.
They spent weeks agonizing about their strategy, poring over polling and debating how long to keep going.

And I still think that you can't really understand the explosion in popularity of LLMs without reckoning with the reckless, wholesale strip mining of internet search that precedes them.

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

I think one thing that's underdiscussed is they waited until the ACA Open Enrollment period started to unconditionally surrender. Could have just kept the govt open and blamed Trump from NOV 1 to DEC 15 about the premiums, but instead they made it the ENTIRE reason for the shutdown and got nothing.

There should be a group of republicans in the background pointing and laughing at him
Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

Remember when Joe Biden told people he would let them buy-in to Medicare and then he didn't do that despite controlling the House and Senate?
Kind of like when Obama said he would sign the Freedom of Choice act on day one and then he didn't do that despite controlling the house and the Senate!

The highlight here is the blatantly false comment from Blumenthal. Republicans didn't force the false choice - Chuck Schumer did. This was the strategy that HE chose. ABSOLUTE CLOWNS
“There’s no real appetite to oust Schumer, though. Nor is there any interest from another Democrat to challenge him, according to interviews with more than a dozen Democratic senators.” @punchbowlnews.bsky.social
Oh Sen Dems are not in disarray - they are in array - in their collective cowardice.
