are we sure that isn’t just a polite way of saying the real problem is Jeff Bezos keeps popping into the writers room and demanding they work in more lines for his wife

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

the media says it's Joe Biden's fault for pardoning Hunter
On pardons, Trump is no longer concerned about appearances or the pretense of propriety.
He’s corrupting the process; he knows he’s corrupting the process; he knows that we know he’s corrupting the process; and he’s doing it anyway. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

JFC is this bad. Straight up cash transfer to the shadiest Republican senators and an assault on the rule of law.
Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team.

Why is the "we must be united!" hectoring directed at people who are mad at the Cavers and not to the Cavers? Everyone who's mad was united, then the Cave Caucus walked across the aisle and betrayed what the public had been told was the Dem position.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

someone should make a mirror for bluesky vids so I can send these links to normies without whatever preconceptions they have of bluesky

putting his name on the covid stimmy was the smartest political move he ever made and he knows it
Trump: "We're gonna issue a dividend to our middle income people and lower income people of about $2,000, and we're gonna use the remaining tariffs to lower our debt."

Standing up to a tyrant - who is willing to impose pain as leverage to compel loyalty or acquiescence - is hard. You can convince yourself that yielding stops the pain and brings you back to "normal".
But there is no "normal". Submission emboldens the tyrant. The threat grows.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

bad metaphor because journalists want the water to win
That old metaphor about the frog and the boiling water isn’t true: If you put a frog in a pot of water and slowly raise the heat, the frog will jump out before it gets boiled to death.
The question now is whether American journalists are smarter than frogs.
