"Both" is usually the correct answer. Witty is good. Thoughtful is better. RT = interesting, not necessarily agreeing

Exactly this. It’s only going to get worse for the next two years, minimum. Whether the world forgives and forgets is not a given.

The two are also tied together, as we saw from SCOTUS magically creating presidential immunity.

YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

Trump's move to ban outlets he doesn't like from reporting inside the White House comes amid a wave of bad news less than 2 months before the midterms: *Record diesel prices, $4+ gas, ~7% mortgages, higher interest rates, high fertilizer prices, ~$7 beef. *Terrible polling for Rs, Trump *Etc Etc Etc

Subtext: Vance was such a pathetic worm that he opposed the war, knew that the war was devastatingly bad, and then repeatedly lied about it in public to please his master. 🙃

Omg. When you’ve lost Joe DiGenova….
diGenova just told me by phone when I asked about his abrupt exit:
"If you want indictments where there's no evidence, you have an ethical problem"

This essay by @vermontgmg.bsky.social is a compact, readable summary of the ways in which AI is being implemented hurts and endangers people, and why people are right to fear and oppose that current implementation.

What we need is a Rule 11 standard for discourse. You can say or argue anything you want, as long as you have a good faith belief in its accuracy and applicability. But when it’s frivolous or in bad faith or demonstrably false, then you deserve to get slapped down.

It wasn’t so much that I didn’t like the episode. I mean, the Lower Decks crossover was perhaps the best SNW episode ever. But season 4 has felt like one gimmick after another, which made the puppet show feel a bit much in context.

Same or better results is a very important selling point. Remember “if you like your doctor, you get to keep your doctor.” Merely cheaper is a fool’s game, because you can easily get underbid by the other side.

The partner who mentored me during my summer clerkship took the time to redline my drafts repeatedly. Back when “redline” still meant using red pens on a hard copy. I am so thankful for his efforts to this day, and I try to pay it forward every summer with my firm’s clerks.

TL:dr - Voters want candidates prepared to put up a fight. And more of those in this cycle have been the younger, further-left sorts. cc: @joshtpm.bsky.social who has been on this distinction for months.

Dear Constitutional Law BlueSky: In light of the SCOTUS decision that enforcement of 14A, clause 3 is vested with Congress, does that mean that the 2027 Congress with Dem majorities in both houses could declare 47 to be an insurrectionist, and therefore ineligible to serve? Asking for a friend. 🙃

You and @joshtpm.bsky.social have both been very clear-eyed about this for some time. We Dems want our leaders to fight. If they can’t stand up for what is right, they need to be replaced by people who will.

This. This. One million times this. In a primary, support the person who makes you the most inspired. In the general election, vote for the Democrat. (And if you’re in a state where it is Indy v. GOP, vote for the Indy.) General elections are binary choices.
