The Oscars: Who Will Win and Who Should Win
Every awards season is one battle after another, and the ninety-eighth Academy Awards ceremony promises a more climactic showdown than most.
Some perhaps naïve but sincere words on the season-long kinship of ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER and SINNERS: “Whatever happens on Oscar Sunday, I suspect that the two front-runners will share the spotlight in a spirit as companionable as it is competitive.” www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Also have been utterly baffled by the lack of Democrats yelling it right back at Republicans.
With the emergence of Epstein, feels like it's only become a more effective path for Democrats over time (e.g. "the Epstein protectors care more about getting into kids' pants than your grocery prices")

Dem legislators tell @marshallglasses.bsky.social that Gov Polis will delay any clemency for Tina Peters until after a sentence review. Polis' most controversial commutation circumvented a similar court ruling. That 2021 decision, attacked by conservatives, is now being cited by Peters' supporters.

AI Apocalypse Looms. We’re Already Blowing It.
Surely there are more options than letting AI run wild or shutting it down, right? Right?
The task of the opposition this year is to turn the administration’s disarray into Republican defeat—a defeat as dramatic, as complete, and as debilitating to the Trump administration as possible.

I’m sure Trump anticipated all this and has a great plan because he’s a master strategist.

Impeach Jared Polis?
It may be necessary...
Under pressure from Trump, Gov Polis is considering pardoning an unrepentant MAGA election saboteur. @brianbeutler.bsky.social has some food for thought for advocates. www.offmessage.net/p/impeach-ja...

WASHINGTON: Despite republicans’ best efforts, including a 24 hour filibuster-style debate — “the state house approved a levy on incomes over $1 million… pays for free breakfast & lunch for k-12 students…”

Trump told them very sternly not to do this in a Truth Social post so I’m shocked they would defy him like this. Maybe Iran doesn’t have an account.

So much ink will be spilled but bookmark this from @abuaardvark.bsky.social which probably explains 99% of it. The other 1% was Witkoff and Kushner.

I know this is a crazy idea, but do any of the commentators who got snookered by anonymous Republicans into sticking with "Trump is strong on immigration, the public actually loves deportations" for far too long feel like it's time to ask themselves why they got so easily taken?

Ossoff: "Trump has a problem with every side of his coalition ... they see this guy and his family raking in billions from all over the world while the cost of living crisis in America gets worse. It's infuriating people, and not just Democrats."

Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."
