Democrats should also acknowledge that seeking a middle ground with a man who calls immigrants “animals” and says he will “protect” women “whether the women like it or not” is unlikely to land in a good place.

I'm in a very "Fuck Him. I'm not giving away four more years of my life to constant crushing anxiety, horror, and disappointment!" kind of space right now. It's every bit as bad as it seems, but it only helps Them if I spend the whole term feeling like I do right now.

But I repeat myself:
Ask a putative leftist arguing to teach Dems a lesson by losing this year "what do you think will happen if the GOP wins" and they respond "exactly the same people will be in charge,"
That person is:
a) a troll
b) Literally Too Dumb To Live
c) Both.
d) Muted.
Anyone else?

#Harris/Walz deserve a Blue Senate, and all of these deserve retirement from it.
All nine Republican senators running for reelection just voted against the Right to IVF Act:
John Barrasso
Marsha Blackburn
Kevin Cramer
Ted Cruz
Deb Fischer
Josh Hawley
Pete Ricketts
Rick Scott
Roger Wicker
(JD Vance missed today's vote)
So much for the party of "freedom."

Fall colors are not just pretty. They are an evolved series of metabolic actions to conserve nitrogen and other nutrients. Breaking down chlorophyll to export N exposes the living leaf cells to sun damage. Red and yellow pigments serve to protect the leaf cells from bleaching by the sun.
