It's kind of crazy that the Natalie Harp news cycle raised some extremely valid questions about the extent of her influence on our octogenarian narcoleptic, none were answered and the press just stopped wondering.

Here’s how the New York Times describes this moment in their coverage:
At one point Mr. Trump asked attendees to raise their right hands and pledge to him that he would vote with their family and friends.
Dutifully, they did.

The media relentlessly promotes the narrative that progressives are too mean to anti-vaxxers and we must bring them around with compassion. This isn't true and isn't helping. The more public sympathy you show them, the more empowered they are in their beliefs. www.statnews.com/2026/08/19/s...

Once again on this website populated by bloodthirsty nerds who are too anxious to talk to people in line at the grocery store, I am pointing out that the majority of political violence engaged in by individuals and small, disconnected groups is motivated by personal narratives mapped onto politics.

stuff like this is why one important avenue for court reform is just nixing the shadow docket altogether and forcing these people to explain themselves to the public when they issue orders. also, making their records property of the united states and subject to publication when they leave the bench.

The Democratic Party's approval rating is in the toilet, and the main reason is voters see Dem leaders and prominent members acting like things are basically okay instead of fighting like there's an emergency. Slot "my friend Lindsey Graham, so funny, how great to work with him" comments into that.

Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:
NYT on Feb. 13, 2026:

The visit also demonstrated the relative foreign policy inexperience of Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, who has made a few overseas trips since taking office but does not sit on any House committees devoted primarily to world affairs. She struggled at times to formulate succinct answers at a nighttime panel session, during which she was asked probing and specific questions about how to respond to international crises.

Questioned about whether the United States should send troops to defend Taiwan if China invaded the island, she stalled for roughly 20 seconds before offering a substantive response.

“I think that, uh, this is such a, a — you know, I think that — this is a, um — this is of course, a, uh, a very longstanding, um, policy of the United States,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez said, before saying that the country should try to avoid reaching that point with China in the first place.NYT on March 16, 2026:

On Monday, Mr. Trump claimed that “numerous countries have told me they’re on the way,” noting that President Emmanuel Macron of France would most likely help in the Strait of Hormuz and was an eight out of 10. “Not perfect, but it’s France,” he said.

Others are not demonstrating sufficient enthusiasm for his demands, he said.

Just out of curiosity—does anyone other this lady ever take the “actually banning social media for kids is bad” position?
Indonesia, the world's fourth-most populous country, recently joined a growing list of nations barring children under 16 from social media. Do these bans work?
Yes. They teach children boredom - how to be curious and understand the world. They'll
"experience what millennials long for: boredom, languid days without plans, the sweet simplicity of a logged-off life," Jodi Wilson writes for The Guardian.
No. They're not effective, and they require identity verification that could lead to mass surveillance. "This system not only allows big tech companies to harvest even more deeply personal data on children, but it creates massive cybersecurity risks," Taylor Lorenz writes for The Guardian.
