Get it all out. We’re on the same side now, sweet heart!

Progressives aren’t going to get a candidate we like this year. And you know what, that’s ok. I wasn’t going to vote for Genocide Joe, but I’ll do everything in my power to put in office Harris, Newsom, Whitmer, or whoever else milquetoast neolib gets the establishment nod, if only to prevent Trump from taking office.

Just about anyone can beat Trump. Now that we don’t have a senile old man holding us back, we’ll be fine.

Who cares if it’s Kamala? She’s not senile, she’s not Genocide Joe, and she’s not an unhinged fascist. She’s a shoe-in.

Lol. Yeah, leftists have famously supported Genocide Joe unconditionally. /s

When did I heard that before?

This additude is how we end up with a Weekend at Bernie’s presidential candidate. Just like activism within national politics is essential to our country’s vitality and growth, activism within party politics is essential for the party to stay relevant and effective. Just as our country will be lost to corporatocracy, oligarchy, and bigotry if no one fights for democracy, justice, and equality, our party will succumb to corporate donors, consultants, and myopic geriatrics if we sit on the sidelines.

Dems have a serious old people problem. We are the party of Dianne Feinstein, who clung to her senate seat until death despite being literally senile. We are the party of Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Hillary Clinton is another symptom of the same disease. She used the power she accumulated within the party over decades to foist herself on a reluctant party base by calling in favors and pulling strings that only someone who has grown old floating in the stratosphere of national politics can.

This country needs a revolution, and it needs to start within the Democratic Party.

boring genocidal corporatists

Adults are wildly overreacting to some kids being jerks. Part of being an adult is tolerating other people saying things you don’t like. American schools are authoritarian nightmares.

I can only hope Death hasn’t left D.C. yet, but is just sharpening his scythe. In particular, there are a couple presidential candidates who are rotting on the vine.

Is it standard operating procedure or not? If it is, then why would it make the Biden team look bad for revealing that they followed the norms.

It’s not unheard of for a politician to ask what will be covered in an interview. It’s not good practice to provide questions ahead of time, and it’s unheard of to let the interviewee script the questions themselves.

Most damning is the lack of confidence Biden’s own staffers have in him to rig the interviews in which he is supposed to be demonstrating his mental agility and acuity.

No. It’s fairly common for interviewees to ask for a list of questions beforehand, but according to Boston University journalism professor Christopher Daly “it is not good professional practice to give questions in advance to sources such as public officials.” And to let the interviewee actually write the questions for you is egregious journalism malpractice, thus the resignation.

Do you think she would resign if it was typical?

Yeah, I’m careful to never whip out my 3" in public.

The banner is disturbing. The impulse to use the government to suppress offensive speech is also disturbing.

“Porn barrel politics” I’m intrigued.

The answer to predatory corporations targeting children is not helicopter parenting. Children need communities in which they can safely grow into independent, self-reliant adults. That means as a society we need to protect them from corporations that seek to exploit their naivete, whether that be via gambling, drugs, social media, or anything else.
