There is a lot of downtime in those debates…they keep giving your opponent 90 seconds here, 30 seconds there…

I’m bothered by the title from a yinzer when there is a perfectly good yinzer pronunciation of said title… Come on Ming-na, “Jeet Jet” was RIGHT THERE

There was a marketing promo for them that was a sci-fi zine with “reporting” on how it was over-engineered by a reclusive guy in the R&D dept that secretly made them into Transformers. It was like a 24 page booklet with blurry pics like a Sasquatch of the robots saving people

A point @kleinman.bsky.social made a few weeks ago about how awful Dem consultants are with their text messages has been driven home with a sledgehammer by the Sherrod Brown campaign. Wtf is this shit? And I like Sherrod Brown! This is embarrassing!

A new federal rule weakens the Endangered Species Act by redefining "harm" to wildlife. This change makes it much harder to protect the habitats that endangered species need to survive. Tell Congress to undo this change and protect endangered species here: mbayaq.co/4xSPQUZ

Has there ever been an interruption of the peaceful transfer of power between U.S. Presidents?
I'll look up official records on presidential transitions and whether any transfer of power was interrupted.

Yes, in one documented sense: the joint session of Congress that counts electoral votes was interrupted on January 6, 2021, then resumed the same day.
