Mezer-Kiss of Death

I was absolutely assured we didn’t have to worry about Trump interference in the election because the Federal govt doesn’t play a role in the elections. Well Shirley the courts will stop him.

It’s really astonishing and sad that this stuff has no effect. Republicans impeached Bill Clinton over sexual activity in the WH.

Attention mail-in voters: TODAY (Tuesday, Oct. 27) is the U.S. Postal Service's recommended deadline for mailing back ballots in states where they must be received by Election Day. You can also consider returning your ballot at your local election office or any available drop box instead.

I can see Trump has given up on the paid actors doing Blacks 4 Trump and has started campaigning in towns of 14k people. Tbf it is very close to other battleground places like western Tennessee, northern Alabama and Arkansas.

Major press failure: treating Jared Kushner taking foreign bribes and shaping US foreign policy as less relevant than Hunter Biden not taking bribes nor influencing policy. Covering Kushner accurately was considered partisan, biased. Lies about Hunter or his minor actions treated as more important.

Jennifer Shuford, the CDC's deputy director and chief medical officer, who "was hired in April as part of a new four-person leadership team" to run the CDC "and restore confidence in the agency" will be leaving after just six months on the job. 👀 wapo.st/4zbhMof

Oh Lord, I see what you’ve done for the Brazilians and I want that for me.

their relationship began when she started cheating on her second husband with sean. he told his priest he wanted to marry his mistress, priest said no way, so he left the church. but sure. “faith and family” as the foundation. 👍

Here’s why this is bad for Biden.

One in four Mississippians rely on Medicaid. Let that sink in. Now think about what $1 trillion in cuts means for our families, hospitals and communities. Cindy Hyde-Smith voted in favor of that.

Republicans are like “If you keep calling me racist I have no choice but to be even racister.”

Oh yes I knew I was missing a more recent one

• Ahmed Zewail (Egypt / US): Won 1999 Nobel Prize in #Chemistry • Nader Masmoudi (Tunisia): Won Fermat Prize in #mathematics • Abbas Bahri (Tunisia): also received the Fermat Prize • Sir Michael Atiyah (Lebanese descent / British): #mathematician who won both Fields Medal and Abel Prize.

Biden and Wyden tried to target these loopholes but Kyrsten Sinema and Jon Tester said no.

For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

Showing your rank ignorance while shoving your foot up your own ass with racism. This really takes something. Again this dumb schmuck only has a -4 approval.

I don’t understand. He’s trying to improve their image?

BREAKING: Judge Reyes has issued a preliminary injunction over the golf course and begins with this: "Rarely, if ever, has the United States Department of Justice urged a federal court not to believe the sitting President." ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Insanity is trying the same thing something something

Her and I waiting for the fucking election

2016 will never end

A recent securities filing spotlighted what triggered Mark Zuckerberg’s months-long power battle with board directors at Meta — a fight that sparked not-so-veiled threats from Zuckerberg and led board members to contemplate quitting.

Nobody knows where the electorate really stands but it's clear that Republican turnout is the only big question left. Sending prominent conservatives to stump in heavily Republican areas probably offers the best bang for the buck they can get at this point

As we know. This administration takes that kind of thing very seriously. Now. To have a sip of coffee and get an update on the prosecution against Trump in Aileen Cannon’s jurisdiction …

Not really beating the charges that Obama has his number and he’s easy to bait. Need some Michelle-grade baiting to really score though here.

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

Wwwwhhhheeeee!!!!!

Odysseus would order a cheesecake that is all the flavors you want it to be. Then, all the flavors you wished you never wished for. Flavors so delicious they become unbearable. Flavors you want but can't have. Flavors that tasted of all the diet plans you failed to keep and didn’t want to keep.

the idea that a city's social services should be paid for one-by-one by these insane discretionary deals on a development-by-development basis is just madness. it's such a tremendous drain on the general prosperity in return for ???

As Matt Levine points out. The highest level of control in Anthropic is the Class T shares held by “Humanity”, well not Humanity exactly. But four Trustees. Who select themselves and serve one term. I’m sure they’ll do a fantastic job.

I discussed this in the Homer Jones lecture at the St. Louis Fed a few months ago. When you look at the US part of the issue is that Republicans were a bit deranged about economy under Biden and Democrats even more so about economy under Trump. https://jasonfurman.org/talks/homer-jones-2026/

they are actively trying to finish him off with a second stroke

Remember when Trump did this for five minutes and it got genuine awareness of voters that he was for the working man. Our politics is dangerously stupid.

The powerful executives who cozied up to Trump didn't oops accidentally forget about pendulum swings. They either: 1) Like the fascism 2) Calculated it was here to stay, so going along was savvy 3) Saw no real downside, no consequences when the pendulum swung Crucial to show them 3 was a mistake

It is both very unlikely Trump will personally succeed at establishing a full-blown dictatorship before he's gone, and also the case that Trump's tenure in American politics has massively increased the chance this country will have a full-blown dictatorship at some point in the next 30 or 40 years.

Is that a lot?
