  1. Hey look, more positive results from democratic policies! But sure, let's ignore stuff like this so we can continue to pretend that Dems are actually just as bad if not worse than Republicans.
  2. A lot of the rednecks in eastern Washington/Oregon are the same people who used to be east Texans dragging black people to death. A bunch of the most hardcore southern racists began moving to the PNW 20+ years ago because they saw it as their last redoubt. They even came up with a fancy name for it most of them probably can’t even pronounce: the northwest territorial imperative.
  3. Aggy and Penn State would pick football. Nobody should be like them.
  4. Silver is clearly using the impact his model has on betting markets for his own betting purposes.
  5. Which is very obviously the entire point of writing the "exceptions" the way they have. There's what is in effect implied law in the gaps between what is written, how it is understood, and how it is enforced that results in the following implication being the actual law: "poor black and brown women have to die, but you better fucking save the white women."
  6. Certainly there have been several similar failed/aborted attempts on Biden and Harris the last 3+ years. They're generally ignored by media because they're failed/aborted so there's never any real serious threat, plus the media doesn't care about rightwing threats against "the left." The recent near-successful attempt on Trump I guess makes this a little more interesting, but it's getting more coverage than the past few school shootings combined and that's fucking ridiculous.
  7. It's amazing that our professional sports franchises have more moral clarity than our mainstream media.
  8. This is why they want to ban Sunday football.
  9. It’d be pretty dope for Biden to use his newfound immunity to take care of all family business before handing the reins over to Harris.
  10. More people jumping on board the "John Roberts is a treasonous piece of shit and dogshit stupid to boot" train?
  11. If enough states certify a Harris victory, he’s more than fucking welcome to take up arms to contest it if that’s what he thinks is right.
  12. Loomer is not a political threat to anyone but Trump. She's grotesque and genuinely hated by pretty much everyone on earth who knows her name. If Trump's younger guy fans start thinking that Trump is sleeping with her it becomes much more likely that a substantial number of them stay home on election day. Sleeping with Loomer isn't an alpha move, it's pure desperation.
  13. So many DT posters used to love the Weinsteins. I wonder if they still follow them.
  14. The NY Times article on this is a bothsides shitrag with the headline, I shit you not, "When Political Memes Take on a Lie of Their Own."
  15. A Turkish woman with US citizenship is an American woman, you chode.
  16. There isn't a "center": "I'm not like those radical Dems" (who include the leaders of the party and 80%+ of its voters) is not a winning centrist message. Dems aren't winning in purple states like Michigan and Pennsylvania by running as Republican-lites. They're running on liberal values and popular policies. Here in Texas, Allred and other Dems could easily be gaining ground if they would prioritize attacking the GOP for their support for charter schools. But instead they play into GOP framing and priorities and run against their own party. That only works if you've got the name recognition and popularity of a Joe Manchin, and it sure as shit doesn't serve the party or any liberal causes.
  17. Any collateral damage at Mar-a-lago would pretty much have to be acceptable, right?
