Based on nothing more than a video of Vance saying he likes beer, I now find myself doubting whether he actually likes beer. He comes off as so much the opposite of genuine that it is impossible to take even his most mundane statements as even plausibly true. The man has resting mendacity face.

Look, if Seth Moulton expects to be recognized by Joe Biden (or *anyone*, really), then maybe it’s Seth Moulton’s responsibility to look more interesting.

CLASSIFYING ABORTION AS A 14TH AMENDMENT ISSUE IS NOT "TEMPERING" LANGUAGE ON ABORTION, IT IS EXPLICITLY IDENTIFYING FETAL PERSONHOOD AS A PARTY GOAL
THAT'S WHY THE GOP AGREED TO IT
THEY LIKE IT
IT DOES WHAT THEY WANT IT TO DO: ALLOW THE PROSECUTION OF ABORTION AS HOMICIDE

Trump-backed Republican platform tempers language on abortion
The Republican Party released its platform on Monday that denies anti-abortion activists within the party the far-reaching language they sought on abortion and embraces the views of its presidential candidate, Donald Trump.

I hope that everyone sees now that it’s not about the candidates on the Democratic side having “flaws” as much as the machine designed to construct these very normal, human limitations into excuses not to vote for them. Gore, Kerry, Clinton, now Biden: It’s always about sowing apathy.

But it is just fucking ridiculous to have weathered YEARS of people telling me to stop criticizing him because it will suppress the vote, only to have people with way more power than me do *this.*

if this was really about who is mentally fit to be president, trump and RFK, jr. have both, repeatedly, over many years in public life, demonstrated that they’re incapable of working through logical patterns of thought or process to establish the veracity of outlandish claims. seems important.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Everyone is always afraid to say why people like Trump or Marie Le Pen have some level of popularity and it’s just that there’s a lot of people in the world who believe in racism. You end up with these goofy ass explanations for Trump where it’s NAFTA or shit and it’s like no you know what it is

The biggest mistake I see Republicans making is thinking a certain number of weeks or certain kind of exceptions will make people tolerate abortion bans when truthfully most people don't want the government involved at all here and that alone should be the question we're debating.

Hormonal birth control places reliable pregnancy prevention in women’s hands, unlocking their dignity, potential, and self-determination. It is as vital to human thriving as antibiotics. Attacks on it are attacks on women as citizens, workers, and social equals.
The lies about birth control have been brewing for years, and one of the most curious figures is Peter Thiel. He funds efforts to manufacture doubt about birth control as a kind of stealth natalist policymaking to prevent "population collapse"--what an earlier generation called "race suicide"
