@rachaelmbade *commenting so I can come back after the general election in November and see how this holds up.

I live in IN, adjacent to one of the state senate districts where the incumbent lost, I think this makes that seat way more winnable for Dems in this midterm political environment.

@culturalcritic3 @emilykmay @abbythelibb_ Is ABS' identity not subsumed/anchored in her job? Just because she says it's not, doesn't mean the reality of her life is that it is centered around her media company, her work, and she seems to be the breadwinner for her family. Her hubs works for her (their) media company.

@emilykmay mom". Sure, Jan. 🤨

@emilykmay ABS has been posting BTS of getting ready for her podcast recording and it is ANYTHING but "Relatable". She sits in a chair and has her hair done while working on her show, she walks into a fully equipped studio with Audio/Video staff waiting for her. But she's just a "regular

@LauraRbnsn I feel like you are completely missing the actual issues here. You can’t compare kids and adults anxiety levels. Kids today are growing up in a completely different world than we did as Gen X/Xennials. Just the threat of school shootings is enough to give kids crippling anxiety

@RachelReneeRee1 Can you share a source for how far along she was in her pregnancy? You say “she gave birth to an infant”. Was the baby she gave birth to viable? I think that is a valid question that I have not been able to find an answer to.

@emilykmay @alisa_childers The deflection is so so telling. They can't just admit when their guy is wrong, call him out, and ask him to apologize. It is always what-aboutism.

@kaitlancollins Then why does a staffer have unsupervised access to post to the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES' Truth Social account in the middle of the night? And how do we know when it is a staffer posting and when it is the actual President? Seems important to distinguish.

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@philvischer I am in a substack group full of conservative Christians defending, deflecting, and using "what-aboutism" in response to this. So the answer is, No.

Men brought guns inside the Michigan statehouse to protest pandemic lockdowns (but really to frighten and intimidate lawmakers) and no one shot them. They weren’t even arrested.

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@animal_loverCA @BenBurgis @meagankday I keep thinking about this and wondering if the first shot was fatal. What if she could have survived that 1st shot with immediate medical care? Which shot was the shot that actually killed her, and if it was the 2nd or 3rd, through the side window - how can that be justified

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@AndrewTWalker “Organized groups of immigrants” - where is your evidence that is what is happening? I have seen numerous reports of ICE detaining US citizens. If you want to quote the Bible to justify your position you should start by not be purposely or ignorantly misleading.

@TurningPointOU I went to a well-known Christian college and have a BA in Psychology and I would never have turned in a paper like this in any of my psychology classes. If I would have, I would have also received a failing grade from my very Christian conservative professors.

My dad didn't smoke, drink, dip, while working out almost daily and was not overweight - he was still diagnosed with Stage 4, incurable, prostate cancer at 55 and died at 59. Great plan bud.

Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

@AGToddRokita What endangers our school children is armed ICE agents infiltrating schools and threatening kids and their families. How much is it costing IN taxpayers for the IN AG to go after Hoosier public school systems for trying to keep their kids and staff safe?

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@umichvoter Nope, they go right to taking away women’s voting rights.

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@adamscochran And the conservative influencers on IG are already blasting it around. So predictable.

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@RepRaskin This is the way.

[Emily McClements @emilymcclements]

@piper4missouri Suggesstions?

@AttyAbdul Walked by Adams HS in South Bend this morning. Steady stream of people in and out, but no line. Friend said her husband voted there early this AM and was in and out in 10 min. Meanwhile there were early voting lines for 2-5 hours in the county over the weekend and yesterday.
