@RedWavePress Sarah Isgar was merely pointing out that this approach to governing that allows Bill Maher to have influence Trump also allows the likes of Laura Loomer to have influence over Trump, which is unacceptable. There was no threat.

[Mandy Bora @MandyBora1]

@RedWavePress This started with Bill Maher acknowledging that President Trump regrettably chooses listening to the opinion of individuals over “reading the briefing books,” to which Maher admitted that he likes having President Trump’s ear — that he likes that he has access to him.

@adam_vanicek @RedWavePress She’s hardly a leftist. In fact, she’s regularly the voice of the right on the program “Left, Right and Center.”

@elonmusk No coincidence Elon. The red states widely engage in voter suppression!

I have always LOVED the ceremonial roll call. But THIS. A roll call with a deejay doing geographically specific jams as they pass the mic around the nation.
Brilliant!!!!
Boom!!!!!

Where things stand:

1. Top Dems who believed even a week ago Biden would stay now believe he’ll go.

2. House and Senate Dems have lost faith in his ability to win and there’s no way to win them back. His calls and interviews have hurt him badly. Confirmed debate wasn't a one-off.

3. Donors are also gone. Biden may well not have the money to run a real campaign against Trump if he stays in. Money will go downballot.

4. Biden is thinking things over in a way he wasn’t before and the view is he needs time to process and consider.

5. If Biden digs in after the weekend, public pressure from Dems will increase. Ugly in a way no one wants. But a lot of grim determination. Also a growing sense that if Biden stays in, this will come to be seen as the kind of political catastrophe you don't want to later be seen as silent in.

6. The moment Biden bows out, he will be treated as a hero among Democrats — a statesman who made the kind of country and party-first decision that Trump never would. People get that this is hard. He's being asked to do something very few leaders do.

7. Uniting around Kamala Harris feels a lot likelier than an open convention, much as I’ve supported the latter. This is grueling enough. Few Democrats have the stomach for another hard thing. And time is very short now.

8. Many thought RNC would help Biden by changing the subject. Instead, seeing a united Republican Party has focused Dems. They've realized they can't rely on Trump just to lose this.

9. Democratic Party is acting like an…actual party? Quite a thing to watch.

@robertwrighter The optics of Strong vs. Weak

[Mandy Bora @MandyBora1]

@robertwrighter Sherrod Brown. He has been outrunning his party forever in Ohio, and he will drive Trump nuts with flanking maneuvers.

Justice Clarence Thomas’ pattern of unethical conduct couldn’t be clearer. The Supreme Court needs an enforceable code of ethics. If they won’t act, Congress must.

@ShattuckDaniel @mikiebarb @pete_wells My thoughts exactly!

This is how BBC opened coverage of World Cup 2022. Stark contrast to Fox Coverage in United States. Please take a minute to watch. This is how this World Cup should be contextualized 🙌
