When asked, Clyburn also said he’d support a mini-primary ahead of the convention if Biden drops out. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/03/clyburn-biden-president-election-dnc-00166481

I was watching Colbert so missed Fallon’s open. That was kind of cute. I switched over to NBC sometime I guess during Jimmy’s last guest. I woke up just before Phish came on. It was a nice enough mellow song which fit my semi-woke state. Nothing particularly special. Way, way better than Waiting All Night. Sounded Phishy enough. I still love Trey’s guitar tone and still think Mike is an excellent bassist. Obviously you’re not going to get any extended soloing in that setting. I wondered if the lighting design with those rectangular shapes in the background was supposed to be a nod to the old Minkin artwork they used to use back in the early 90’s. I always liked those. While searching for pics, I came across this shot from the Sphere which I feel certain must be a reference to those old pieces.

Hannibal Lecter would be worse. He’s a narcissistic sociopath like Trump but unlike Trump he’s also smart. Why do you think Trump admires him?

Phish will be the musical guest on Fallon tonight.

He cut himself off during a primary debate in 2020 when his time was up.

Don’t skip Haley Bull from Scripps, Joe!

She was in North Carolina today. I saw a chunk of that speech. Also saw her in Las Vegas the other day. She’s been getting more exposure since Dobbs and it looks to me like she’s getting more since the debate now too

You’ve made your mind up and are seeing what you want to see. He’s doing fine and giving long, detailed answers about complex issues. Swing and a miss on your part.

Will you be able to deal with Putin and Xi three years from now? Yes. Next question.

It was fine.

It doesn’t land with you.

I like the “riding around in his golf cart, filling out his score card before he hits the ball” line. It’s funny cuz it’s true.

You’re just looking for a reason to bitch.

Right on, Joe.

Joe should only answer once the question about why he thinks he should stay in the race. Make them ask meaningful questions about policy issues and show that he can answer those. That’s what matters.

John Kerry, campaigning in Detroit, once said, “I just go for Buckeye football.”

He was an apprentice of Peter Thiel.

But Amanda Terkel tweeted it!

It was a perfect debate.

Melania must want to move back to NYC.

I don’t know about the accuracy of a report that anyone thinks Barack Obama is quietly orchestrating things behind the scenes. But that first clip is cut short and doesn’t show how Joe went on to ridicule the notion that Obama is quietly orchestrating anything behind the scenes. I didn’t watch the second clip because I don’t give a fuck what bullshit Trump posts.

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/10/trump-considering-cutting-intel-sharing-europe-00167503 Trump considering cutting back intel sharing with Europe, officials warn Donald Trump is considering a reduction in intelligence sharing with members of NATO, which depends on the U.S. for the type of information that has helped Ukraine fend off Russia, according to foreign officials informed of the plans. Trump advisers have told allied countries the reduced intel sharing would be part of a broader plan to scale back U.S. support and cooperation with the 32-nation alliance, according to three European officials and a senior NATO official, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal discussions. The officials said they learned about the proposal to curb intelligence-sharing during discussions with Trump advisers about broader plans to reduce U.S. involvement with NATO. The former president repeatedly questioned and sought to undercut the alliance during his first term in office. The curtailment of intel could have dire security consequences, especially for Ukraine as it tries to repel the Russian invasion. “It’s the American intelligence that helped convince a lot of NATO countries that Putin was resolved to invade Ukraine,” one European official said. “Some countries didn’t believe Russia had the capabilities to carry out a successful military campaign.”

Tell your friend if he stays home then he’s choosing Trump.

Who’s “they?” Who would replace Harris? Someone white?
