Q: "President Zelenskyy, how soon after the war would you like to join NATO?"
Biden: "An hour and 20 minutes. You guys ask really insightful questions."
biden has to lose, if he wins we are locked into his version of the democratic party forever. we’ll survive a second trump term but the world can’t survive the current american political status quo, something has to give
Going to admit that i had no idea that a country with a 40% Indian population (and 30% Hindu population) existed in the Western Hemisphere. This is really fascinating
Justice Clarence Thomas is 75. Justice Alito is 73. They are getting older and will retire soon.
If Biden is re-elected and they retire, he gets to select their successors meaning a liberal Supreme Court.
That’s a good reason to vote for Biden in 2024.
If the crowd doesn’t want homeless people living on the streets and they don’t want them living indoors then where do they want homeless people to live?
The Middle East does a better job of showing that race is fake than any other region. The person on the left is considered white. The person on the right is considered nonwhite. Both are the same ethnicity

538 is genuinely excellent at forecasting and is an absolutely invaluable resource for polling and other election information. Would be a huge loss if they went under
EXCLUSIVE: Famed statistics guru and writer Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight is on the “chopping block,” Confider has learned, as ABC News looks to cut costs.
There’s an interesting question of why did the media cover San Fransisco’s crime problem much more than Houston or Dallas’s crime problem despite Houston and Dallas having a *much* worse crime problem and a much larger population?
People have this weird idea that Trump winning was due to left-liberals sitting the election out and not Trump winning a bunch of people who voted for Obama twice
Elections have repercussions! 6-3 court leading us to the Handmaid’s Tale can all be traced to the “I’m gonna sit this one out” folks of the 2016 elections.
Estimates of where white voters swung left from 2004 to 2008 in selected Southern states. Rural white Southerners unanimously moved right, even though Obama did ~10 points better than Kerry nationally.
My hot take is that I think normies and organizations showing solidarity with a nation that just experienced a massive terrorist attack is fine even if I personally don’t like Israel’s government. I don’t expect normies and organizations to have super nuanced takes on the issue
I don't understand how the NBA is SO uncompetitive with the NFL in terms of TV ratings while remaining somewhat competitive with the NFL in terms of revenue
Herschel Walker is up with a new runoff ad about transgender athletes, featuring a swimmer who tied with Lia Thomas.
“My senior year, I was forced to compete against a biological male,” Riley Gaines says in the ad for Walker’s Senate campaign.
-Biden releases statement saying that railroad worker agreement should be passed as is
-Negatively polarizes Rs into supporting sick leave for railroad workers
-Biden signs agreement giving railroad workers sick leave
Alaska Democratic Party arguably the most competent Democratic Party in the country. Gerrymandered the state legislature. Control the house seat. Somehow control one or both chambers. Re-elected Murkowski
This question from Amy Coney Barrett is basically game over for Roe. She says: Now that all 50 states have "safe haven" laws that let women relinquish parental rights after birth, the burdens of parenthood discussed in Roe and Casey are irrelevant, and the decisions are obsolete.
Just In: Inflation was 3% in June (y/y). That's an incredible drop from a year ago when inflation was 9.1% (y/y) in June 2022.
Rent/shelter accounted for 70% of inflation in June 2023.
**Wages are now rising faster than inflation**
Coming Wednesday: In the symbolic heart of Trump’s America, the president’s supporters stand resolutely behind him still, hopeful he’ll keep his promises to revive the coal business and the country. Read more in

I’ve seen enough: Catherine
Cortez-Masto (D) has defeated Adam Laxalt (R) to win the 2022 Nevada Senate Election. Democrats have retained control of the senate as a result
Why do some online leftists think that the Democratic Party has moved to the right since 2000? What issues do they think Biden 2020 was the right of Gore 2000 on?
People understate how conservative DeSantis’s voting record was in the house. He would probably be the most ideologically extreme presidential candidate nominated by a major party
ON MONDAY 100,000 AMERICANS WILL BE LINED UP AT THEIR REGIONAL BANK DEMANDING THEIR MONEY — MOST WILL NOT GET IT
THIS WENT FROM SILICON VALLEY INSIDERS ON THURSDAY TO THE MIDDLE CLASS ON SATURDAY — MAIN STREET FINDS OUT MONDAY

Trump lawyer John Lauro on CBS: "We would like a diverse venue, a diverse jury ... I think West Virginia will be an excellent venue to try this case. Close to DC and a much more diverse--"
Thinks it’s clearish that the biggest opponents of YIMBYism are just regular conservative Republicans and not leftists (even though the latter is vastly more represented on housing Twitter)
Broadband is vital for the success of our rural communities and for our entire economy.
Great to see Alabama receive crucial funds to boost ongoing broadband efforts.
In one afternoon, Gavin Newsom has vetoed bills to prohibit caste discrimination, decriminalize hallucinogens, and create a statewide social housing program.
Pardon my french, but what the actual fuck is going on in the Governor's office?
The amount of conservatives sincerely telling me that people’s feelings matter more than actual facts and statistics when it comes to crime and public safety is honestly insane.
