For months people said “Trump saying Hannibal lecter because he thinks asylym seekers means insane asylums”. And today he says it. Maybe the most coherent thing he’s said in months (it’s still insane)

but I’m honestly pretty confident at this point and my feeling is that we should be pretty focused on post-election day ratfucking and violence more than Tuesday itself.

VC/PE vampires have no heart so can’t understand that people do things for fun/community/health. They think everyone only wants to do shit to make money. Why watch sports without gambling? Why play youth sports without trying to make it to the NBA? Why collect things without being able to flip them?
This is coming to sports too.
I feel like we were all in a better place when journalism was "a thing worth doing" and not "a thing only worth doing if it can generate hockey-stick growth for hedge fund dudebros."

Jonathan Greenblatt and the ADL still haven’t said a word about Trump’s praise for Hitler, or the fact that he held a white nationalist rally on the anniversary of the Tree of Life Synagogue massacre.
New: I wrote about how the country's most prominent Jewish organization against antisemitism hasn't said a word about Trump alleging "Hitler did some good things," and the media failure to give this terrifying declaration the attention it deserves.
Trump praises Hitler. ADL remains silent.
In a terrifying moment for American Jews, the org is nowhere to be found.

Under a working constitution, Andy Harris would be in prison and permanently expelled from Congress for his role in plotting and carrying out Jan. 6
House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris said last night that the North Carolina legislature should consider awarding the state's electors to Donald Trump before votes are counted, due to the impact of Hurricane Helene.
