Right. The thing is “mediocre campaigner“ would have been objectively true abt Allred but phrasing as black man vs black woman makes it abt identity/personhood in a way that rubs ppl The wrong way.

Not a journalist. A political content creator/influencer who was in his content affiliate network and has now left over this.

You are not a Texan. Texans love our HEB. Charles is the current CEO of HEB, & is a model of what American business should be. He has swung into politics as a staunch defender of public schools, against Abbott's charter school push. He may not be a Democrat but, he's not comparable to Adelson.

She's not an AUSA, she's an immigration court attorney on secondment. Her options where she has experience are the ICE side of immigration court or the migrant side of immigration court; neither of those sound particularly lucrative to me, but IANAL

She put in her resignation but stayed till they could find a replacement. She was fired after this.

They literally tried to make a unified slate b/w Allred, Beto & Talarico, but they couldn’t agree on who should run for governor.

That’s just not how TX’s House delegation works in practice. We have a limited number of safe Dem seats, no swing seats, no one gets promoted till seniors leave. Crockett got her seat b/c Eddie Bernice Johnson retired prior to her death. Al Green refuses to make way for Menefee in TX-18 right now!

I think it does deny it but ambiguously, not explicitly. The statement says he characterized Allred‘s campaign as mediocre, but not his life & accomplishments. That said, I definitely understand reading it as weasel words and that he did say it and is trying to not lie about it.

I think there is something to be said for a soft embrace of the Trump2024 voters now that they touched the stove and burned us all. That strategy would probably require a kind of CareBears-meets-West-Wing energy & that is what Talarico is giving us.

Crockett come ups B/c the allegation was made by a creator who left the Talarico creator network (in part over this incident) & has now joined the Crockett network. She said the encounter happened on 1/12 & she published on 2/1.

A yield sign

But you and I both know that won't give him what he needs psychologically to succeed. He needs to own it outright.

(PS for FBI: not physically; just politically)

No, because the Zumwalts are angular and are unpleasing to the eye of Glorious Leader. These will be sleek and nice, since Glorious Leader is a very aesthetic person.

This is why I'm convinced that the previous anti-stealth headlines were never about the F-22; they were always about the Zumwalt

Wait, this took me a minute. By "re-nuclearizing" we do NOT mean bringing back the Long Beach class?

Instead, we're carrying nuclear warheads on the destroyers? Presumably to compete with that stupid Russian torpedo?

Why do they always pick the worst possible choice at every turn?

Do you want to support a victim even when their neuropsychology is driving them in the opposite direction? Neuroscience will teach you how to do that & give you insight into how psychiatrists/psychologists do that. You know what neuroscience is driven by? Organic chemistry & biochemistry

Do you want to be just be told to not mix ammonia & bleach or do you want to be told WHY not to mix ammonia & bleach? Chemistry, specifically organic chem, teaches you that.

I have been thinking exactly this for ages now, thank you for pouting this succienctly. All of these paeans to “history & tradition” of Anglo-American Common Law; for what?

No, Lee, Rick Scott & Ron Johnson all voted together; the tally is 59-40

I wonder what she is basing the claim on then. Could she have got a letter from Stanford’s equivalent of CTY/TIP at that time and misunderstood it as undergrad admissions? Or did she radically misunderstand a Questbridge letter?

My money is that she got a letter from Stanford’s equivalent of CTY/TIP at that time and misunderstood it. That or she got a letter from Questbridge & radically misunderstood that letter.

I feel like another under appreciated fact is that there is a reasonable chance that the current pope knows and enjoys Lehrer’s work (or at least N.I. Lobachevsky & New Math) and thus may add The Vatican Rag to the set of secular music permitted in the liturgy.

Oops, all fajita strips!
