BREAKING: The usually snarky White House account has not responded to Iran’s attacks on social media! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

A dangerous severe weather outbreak is set for Tuesday and Wednesday from Texas to the Ohio Valley. Strong tornadoes, large hail, and damaging winds are expected, with some storms lasting overnight. Have a safety plan ready by Monday night.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

He and his story will make a great attack ad.

No, it is just her hate for Israel… for completely different reasons than the rest of us. This is coming from the same place as the space lasers nonsense.

I personally can’t wait to vote against him in 2028, but you are right. He is a bit better than our other Senator, Connecticut Dave. But I think he may pull a Sinema and change parties, so maybe you are both right.

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.

I am not so sure it is that different from previous generations. They may have just grown up in the last ten years with people normalized misogyny and hate and feel more comfortable being honest about it. There have always been guys that say these things, most just say it when women aren’t around.

Sorry, you are correct. I specified 2024 on a different comment. That’s my bad.

I specifically said his 2024 campaign. Not sure how that is dishonest.

I mean, her PAC was one of his top donors. Charter schools too. Regardless, he is not some populist champion. Hopefully he manages to win in November, but it will be an uphill battle.

RESULT: Over & over, Democratic lawmaker Shelly Willingham helped the North Carolina GOP override the vetoes of Governor Stein & Cooper.

He lost just now to a progressive challenger, 56% to 44%.

(And he's likely one of several in this position. Stay tuned.)

Idk, it looks like Talarico will win in Texas and he is the Adelson funded darling of the Dem establishment.

I think his main point is that his top donor in the state house for the 2024 cycle was also one of Trump’s top donors. This is her…

Yeah, thanks. Someone else gave me the transcript too. I still don’t think it makes up for failing to deny it at the time, but I understand others not agreeing with that assessment of his original statement.

What the fuck are you talking about? I don’t give brownie points for saying one thing at the time and something politically advantageous later. I missed that part of his interview, I’ll give you that. It doesn’t change anything though, even if he had said it before, he didn’t say it at the time.

Fair enough. I moved out of state a few years ago, so I can’t vote in this primary regardless. But I want TX to flip so badly and just do not believe Talarico can do it, despite his fan club that says he is electable since he a white guy. That is coming from a white guy, fwiw.
