  1. Yeah, it barely made the news. That's really distressing. New Hampshire just passed it (it takes effect after this election), and I doubt most of the state's aware 30% of NH women are about to be disenfranchised. There's unreliable Dems on the Senate side right now like Sinema, Manchin and Fetterman, and who know where we'll be after this election. And then there's the unpredictability of a fully politicized and untethered Supreme Court. It's something that needs much greater awareness.
  2. That's obvious. But also not the point.
  3. There hasn't been much discussion anywhere about how the bill Dotard has been pushing to get into law (under the fake allegations that people here illegally vote) would have immediately stopped about 30 percent of the women in this country from voting, because their married name may not be one their passport, or the name they registered to vote under. If that shit were to pass, even after the election, it will be a huge hassle for a huge number of women.
  4. I feel like I know way too much about Space Karen but I may have to read Character Limit just to read the bit about a former Twitter data scientist.
  5. Tell me this is the first time you've paid close attention to a US election without telling me.

  7. Not based on what various journos were saying last night but I have no idea. Honestly her cheating on him, or not, is not even part of the story we should care about. It's the way she tilted not only her coverage but probably influenced others. edit - someone posted a video back on page 728 of a short clip of her speaking and there's definitely notable body language to read as she speaks.
  8. She's phenomenal. I didn't realize until her speech at the DNC that she reps District 30. She's only a freshman in Congress and appears to have unlimited potential. A good friend was -- before she moved to the private sector -- a top aide to her predecessor, who was loony tunes and held that district forever.
  9. Ryan Lizza achieves new level: Has successfully avoided the subject.
  10. Elon Musk: Useful Idiot. At the very least.
  11. "apparently" doing a lot of work here
  12. There's also a group of reportedly close statewide races in NC Yes, you missed the GOP's "Leading Thinker and Moralist" and anti-immigration enthusiast, Chris Rufo, getting discovered for having an Ashley Madison account to cheat on his wife, who migrated to the US illegally. He's one of the main guys who writes on behalf of the GOP's racist and christian fascism. This affair also involved a reporter. If you search Axios and the Rep's name you'll find her because she wrote a bunch of articles about him
  13. Only the most pious and ethical. And "based."
  14. I too have fond memories of hiking the Appalachian Trail
  15. Mark Robinson refused to withdraw.
  16. I didn't hear about (a) until now
  17. It's a busy news night! More Ashley Madison news.
  18. ...aaaaaaand now Larry David has released a statement:
