I think the reason everyone is responding negatively to this position is that the pod save guys were (rightly) FURIOUS with the Biden campaign for not acknowledging the weaknesses which led to a situation which gave Republicans an advantage. Fair enough. It was a tough position to take because Biden truly was a very effective president. But they were right.

This same anger, however, is nowhere to be found about a deeply troubled candidate with a long history of bigotry, sexism, dishonesty and problematic behavior which harms his campaign and thus the chance to beat the Republicans and be a true check on Trump’s power.

I won’t conjecture as to why they have this double standard except to say that it’s odd and maybe worth reevaluating at this point given how much his behavior and non-disclosures have materially harmed his campaign and, given the stakes, endangered American democracy itself.

This was the EXACT argument they made against Biden and it’s nowhere to be found here.

Republicans in North Carolina just proposed a bill that says if a woman is caught with an IUD or attempts to get an abortion then men are allowed to use DEADLY FORCE to try and stop her. They are proposing a bill that will allow men to kill women for using birth control. It’s House Bill 1232. Keith Kidwell is the Republican who proposed the bill. He claims it counts as self defense to use deadly force to stop abortion. This is a man who claims to be pro life. Feel free to give his office a call and let him know how you feel about his opinion.

And for anyone who says “obviously this will never get passed” that’s not the point. The point is it’s fucking insanity that a government official would even try to make a law like this. It’s insanity that there are men out there who are trying to make it legal to kill women for making decisions for their own bodies. This is real and it’s happening right now in front of our eyes.

This is why the Democratic Party is collapsing. It makes excuses for white, male candidates - no one else. He cheated - so? He has bigoted tattoos - so?

But that lady candidate laughs too weirdly. That Black candidate doesn't smile enough. Fuck'em.

Look man I want Susan Collins to lose. Period. When that article said he had an active account on Kik, my stomach fucking dropped. Truly feels like irresponsible dc types fully fucked us here.

@emilykmay Love this for you! (Sincerely!)

[KB @KaraRBrown]

Hate to defend this rich white lady but her husband keeping money from her that he could have only earned with her work and support at home is wrong no matter how rich they all are

You're about to see headlines saying abortion pills can't be shipped. THAT IS NOT TRUE

You can still get abortion pills by mail to all fifty states.

Some providers will switch to miso-only, some will ship both mife & miso. I got into all of this when the federal court ruling first dropped on my S*ubstack.

I often say that the fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. But let me be clear, if you aren’t fighting for Black voting rights right now then you aren’t really fighting for democracy.

Trump threatened to nuke Iran during the same press event where he called a woman reporter "baby" and a "bitch" and we'll all just supposed to continue on tomorrow as though any of this insanity is normal or acceptable

@JHWeissmann @limebike You don't see too much victim blaming children these days. She's so brave!

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

Spare me the complaints about Virginia's new districts. This is my new district in Texas. Unlike VA, I wasn't able to vote on it.
The blue area is a very diverse part of the Dallas suburbs that was carved out & threw in with a bunch of rural (red) voters as far as 180 miles away!

[Acyn @Acyn]

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—

AOC: Wah wah wah.

We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set.

And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas.

What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people.

So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

How incredibly predictable that Bondi and Noem made absolute bafoons of themselves on behalf of Trump, only to learn that there’s no amount of cruelty toward others that could buy them safety in a room full of misogynists.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Bondi was awful, but no worse than Patel. Noem was terrible, but no worse than Hegseth. Funny that it’s only the women who get fired.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

While the President sends more American troops to the Middle East, the price of everything - groceries, gas, mortgages - keeps rising.

Let’s be clear: we are worse off today, and no safer, than before this unnecessary war began.
