With all due respect, you're a United States Senator and that's a rent-a-cop from a private security firm with no authority to stop you.

It was always true that if you were going to protest an administration, a Harris admin might have listened. A Trump admin wouldn’t. Some of those purporting to care about Gaza certainly had a weird way of showing it.

In a letter to Biden, Adeel Mangi calls out the 3 Dem senators who caved to the GOP's Islamophobia: "They lack the wisdom to discern the truth, which exposes a catastrophic lack of judgment; or they used my nomination to court conservative voters, which exposes a catastrophic lack of principle."

Yes yes yes. I have run a 24/7, 365 operation since I got elected. I have a permanent campaign HQ that rotates between off-year and on-year organizing.
People thought it was nuts when I first set it up. I said you’re setting yourself up for disaster if you only show up 6 mos before an election.

We also treat “the campaign” as if it’s something that occurs June-November. What the right knows and excels at is that the campaign exists every day, all year around. Dems need to do a better job of touting their legislative wins and bashing the gop for opposing popular bills that help real people.
The ironic thing about post election chatter is that a lot of the time it’s candidates who lost, underperformed, or underworked who have endless time to go on TV and share their blame story.
And for their part, journalists rarely EVER ask if that person actually ran a functionally solid campaign

“the white male moderate midwestern governor is too left wing to appeal to swing voters” is such a laughable take. perfect example of how the only real thing these folks believe is that anything that makes lefties happy must be bad.

I've settled on this position and affirmatively think Biden should remain in the race come hell, high water, or his own death.
The utter panic everyone has felt is not a sign that Biden should resign but that the moment when the election is *real* and its outcome uncertain has arrived.

The NYT is not going to be nice just because AG Sulzberger’s ego was fed. We will have 1,001 stories between now and Election Day about how weak democrats are for running a candidate who didn’t win a Democratic primary, framed by “Trump is so powerful he caused a sitting D President to resign.”

My prediction is that she orders him remanded to custody immediately after trial if he is convicted (and I do think he will be convicted), on basis of pretrial/trial conduct and risk that he commits a similar crime in 2024.

In reality, reform, or the credible threat thereof, is the most responsible, institutionally minded, and possibly politically galvanizing course of action—three cheers for checks and balances!—but it requires a political party and leadership that's resolute and primed for battle.

My fuller thesis is that the time has come for Biden to stop treating court expansion as a political action to be avoided, and discuss it instead as a form of checking and balancing that the court has forced him to consider.
