In the absence of that tiny act of accountability and inclusion, why do anything at all? Why hold a media session? Why face the cameras and reporters at all, if you can even call what Posey did "facing?" Why write a test that didn't need to be written just to get all the answers spectacularly wrong?

A stable of unforced errors, buried beneath a cascade of cowardice. The [antithesis] of meeting the moment. The polar opposite of what the fanbase deserved and needed.

There was a time when I never would have dared to utter the word "weak" in association with Buster Posey. Now I fear I need a stronger word.

@colemk.bsky.social You should post cool stuff like this here too!

Took me a minute to get back to this article but damn this hit hard

'And then the pageantry was over, but Magyar was still separated from the crowd by large expanses of empty space, the distance that Orban's government had so carefully engineered. Magyar started motioning to the crowd: Come closer, come closer - but people were already pressed up against the edge of the reflecting pool. After a few moments, the excitement and the desire to be fully a part of this historic moment became too much to resist. Some men hiked up their pants and ran across the reflecting pool - which, it turned out, was just a couple of inches deep. Almost immediately, hundreds more followed. They ran splashing through the water and onto the other side, filling the space from which they had so long been excluded. "This is your house now!" Magyar exclaimed.'

Great read.

But then ... the autopsy never went out.

News coverage has focused on why the DNC shelved it. My understanding-based on Dem-world hearsay-is that the truth is stupider than the fiction: No autopsy was released because there is no actual autopsy. The members of the "autopsy team" were in over their heads and struggled to put the thing together. What they produced was a loose summary of a bunch of interviews that were largely done without talking to the campaign or big spenders.

The more interesting question is what would an actual autopsy of the 2024 campaign have said?

It is also true that Rogan's team kept moving the goalposts. The whole Beyoncé concert was actually an excuse to go to Texas (to go on Rogan!). Had Trump not booked his Rogan interview that day, I believe we would have done it. I suspect that it was Rogan himself, not his team, jerking us around. The folks we spoke to on his team were professional and gave the impression of acting in good faith. Rogan, by contrast, would go on to misrepresent our discussions: Some of the topics he later claimed we didn't want to talk about were actually topics we suggested talking about.

Democrats will likely win the House this year, even with all the congressional redistricting going on. We may win the Senate. But those wins will paper over the structural problem: Our party still speaks the language of, and to the priorities of, people who care about our institutions and believe they basically work.

There isn't a left-right solution here; this is an up-down problem. The voters we need to win back are the ones we already had and lost: the multiracial working-class coalition we thought we were assembling in 2020, which has frayed badly, especially among men. They are waiting for a party that sounds like it's on their side against a system that isn't working for them.

That requires economic populism with teeth, candidates with genuine charisma, and-hardest of all for a party staffed by institutionalists-a posture of real contempt for a status quo we are arguably part of. And we need to do it without losing the new members of our coalition who joined us over the last decade

Text received from the Marie Gluesenkamp Perez campaign:

"Hi Christopher, this is Ximena with Marie Gluesenkamp Perez for Congress.

Marie is a 5th generation Washingtonian, an auto repair shop owner, and a pro-choice mom who is running for re-election to fight against extremism, protect reproductive freedom, and level the playing field for folks in the working class.

Can we count on your vote for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez for Congress?

And this time the chicken was engineered

Tweet from @ryangrim:

"Oh, this is unbelievable. The edit history on this tweet shows that Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif originally copied and pasted everything he was sent, including:

"*Draft - Pakistan's PM Message on X*"

Now, obviously, Sharif's own staff don't call him "Pakistan's PM," they would just call him prime minister. The U.S. and Israel, of course, would call him "Pakistan's PM."

Would be funny if the fate of the world wasn't hanging in the balance."

Below the tweet is the edit history of PM Sharif's message.

What does it say about your movement if your greatest enemy is "Highly Incompetent"?

Trump posts:

"Now with the death of Iran, the greatest enemy America has is the Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democrat Party! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT"

But it doesn't

“We will have more kayaks for an evening game than we ever had aside from Barry's milestone home runs," Edlund said. "We're not used to having this many people for night games, and we're not used to having one company take over the cove with all the same colors. It's exciting for us."

Asked for comment, a DHS spokesperson said Noem was simply relaying the claims of an air marshal. “What 'fabrication' of the story of the cannibal?" the spokesperson said. “She was told that story on a deportation flight by one of the air marshals."

Just a reminder that Vance Boelter didn't think killing Melissa and Mark Hortman was enough. He also felt the need to shoot their dog multiple times. youtu.be/Lhm5Jaq-7qM?...

Service dogs were present at the Capitol for emotional support. The Hortmans' golden retriever Gilbert was euthanized after being gravely injured in the June 14 shooting.

"In the blanket incident, Noem had to switch planes after a maintenance issue was discovered, but her blanket wasn't moved to the second plane, according to the people familiar with the incident. The Coast Guard pilot was initially fired and told to take a commercial flight home when they reached their destination. They eventually reinstated the pilot because no one else was available to fly them home."

Weird that I'm listening to the new Puscifer album and as I read your comment I'm listening to these lyrics

[Verse 3]
Bad actors all that remain on the stage and station
Boisterous conductors, they echo without within
Plea to the void, to the gods that I don’t believe in
I now believe that we live in a simulation

Ever wondered why Trump needs so many golf courses?

Online complainant reported she was a victim and witness to a sex trafficking ring at the Trump Golf Course in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA between 1995- 1996. Complainant reported Ghislaine Maxwell as the madam and broker for sex parties, clients of whom included Epstein, Robin Leach, and Donald Trump. Complainant reported participating in orgies and that some girls went missing, rumored to have been murdered and buried at the facility. Complainant reported being threatened by Trump's then head of security that, if she ever talked of what went on there or who she saw, he would "end up as fertilizer for the back nine holes like the other cunts."
