@Wizards_Help I've been waiting weeks to get any kind of help about an order I made in September for my 2024 PHB that the shipper says it never received from Scalefast. I've reached out multiple times via the website and can't get anyone to help me, and Scalefast is MIA.

📈 Both Harris and Trump have each received over 2 billion views on their official campaign TikTok accounts.

Here's their total TikTok video view counts as of this morning:

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, I have the solemn responsibility to be the first president to formally apologize to Native peoples – Native American, Native Hawaiian, and Native Alaskan – for what happened during the Indian Boarding School era.

It's long overdue.

[CSPAN @cspan]

President Biden: "I'm heading to do something that should have been done a long time ago; to make a formal apology to the Indian Nations for the way we treated their children for so many years. That's why I'm heading west."

[David Dayen @ddayen]

From me:
This is a wild story.
Michelle Steel is benefiting from nearly $3 million in ads from a crypto super PAC.
She's criticizing her opponent for... owning crypto.
But only in Vietnamese-language mailers.

Are you fucking serious @thedailybeast?

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Why CNN, why? Who has stopped that food from entering? Can you say?

[Matt Lockshin @lockshin]

@mikelroy The subtext of the defence was that lots of people getting rebates is more important than setting a fair payment level for seriously injured people. If he had actually said the payments in these cases/for these types of scenarios were appropriate, I would have respected it more.

[Matt Lockshin @lockshin]

@mikelroy In terms of the actual numbers, I don't have the news stories handy but they made a good prima facie case that this could be an issue. Eby's response that this was something that could be looked at in a couple of years wasn't compelling.

[Matt Lockshin @lockshin]

@mikelroy If you want a substantive response on the last bit about attorneys fees, let me know. It's not something I want to go through on Twitter, but I have a fair amount of insight on this.

GOP Sen. John Kennedy's latest fundraising email is like someone asked ChatGPT to generate a series of similes about animals for 2nd graders.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

I'm just seeing this. Major, major fact check needed.

Congress funded the Shelter and Services Program through US Customs and Border Protection, then ordered CBP to transfer the funding to FEMA to administer the program. It is NOT in the same funding stream as disaster relief.

[Jessica Riedl 🧀 🇺🇦 @JessicaBRiedl]

This is simply false. Not only are natural disasters addressed in a separate emergency fund, but catastrophic hurricane aid always comes from Congress passing emergency aid bills as large as $80 billion. The $640M spent on migrants is unrelated budget dust. They aren't related.

Please take a read of this; my friend @mattsheffield is one of the most important, knowledgeable voices of the incestuous relationships between right-wing orgs., the GOP and its complicit media.
