The Democratic primary in this race will be held fully eight months from now in June 2026, there are nine active Democratic candidates, and there could be more! Even the filing deadline is still months away (March 15, I believe). I don’t get the PSA crew adopting a bunker mentality this early.

Honestly, unleashing this cadre of mediocre white boys who credited themselves with Obama’s political talent is actually the worst thing Obama did domestically

Trump Said to Demand Justice Dept. Pay Him $230 Million for Past Cases

I’ve written about people who were exonerated after being imprisoned for 20, 30, and 40-plus years. Some were nearly executed. None of them ever saw anything near $320 million.

Yesterday two Trump-appointed judges lifted a stay on Trump sending the National Guard into Democratic cities, and today Coons, Durbin, Fetterman, Hassan, Heinrich, Kaine, Kelly, Klobuchar, Reed, Schiff, Shaheen, Welch, and Whitehouse are giving him yet ANOTHER appointment. Totally fucking useless!

We tried to return one we found to the third precinct in like 2019 and they were so pissed they had to deal with it. May have radicalized my spouse.

I said “when my bike was stolen it would have been nice to have like a crime fighting force out there helping me to get it back.” Again he said “I’ll check back later.”

Abandon bike outside my workplace. Cop drives by, I flag him and point it out. “What do you want me to do about it?” he said. “I’ll check back later”.

The second email on Sept. 15, also sent by AIPAC, encourages donations to Angie Craig in MN, Haley Stevens in MI and Laura Fine in IL-09

Links to all three of these candidates lead to the same "Pro-Israel Network" donation page using Democracy Engine as the vendor

Ronald Reagan narrates a new anti-tariff ad from Canada The new commercial is part of a $75 million ad campaign by Ontario aimed at Republican voters.

Holy shit.

Game 7 between the Jays and the Mariners just ran an pro-free trade ad, targeted to American workers, decrying tariffs.

The twist being that, if you don't catch it beforehand, Ronald Reagan is revealed as the speaker in the closing seconds.

What PAC is this? The Province of Ontario.
