In what will be a daily reminder, .

Nikki Haley is attacking Biden. Efforts to say that she is better than Trump legitimize her attacks on Biden.

Haley is not Never Trump. Haley is not Never Trumpism.

Haley is a threat to Biden, to Democrats, to the efforts to protect and restore the rights that the alt-right Christian nationalists are targeting.

Haley is a threat.

@Hey_Beth It's quite simple. :)

Trump will kill you.

Haley will make you shit yourself then possibly die.

@peteriskrisjanis @Hey_Beth He can run out of cash. He’s nearly bankrupt, and with mounting judgments and an equally-broke RNC and NRA, even if he wants to stay in he may be unable to drive his message any farther. That’s why the genteel-fascism elites are pushing Haley so hard — they see the writing on the wall.

@Hey_Beth @peteriskrisjanis Yep. And Allred is about as solid a candidate as you can find. He flipped TX-32 (my district) in 2018 and I’d be glad to see him move up to the Senate. 🤞

@Hey_Beth @peteriskrisjanis Yep, screw them. They rode their fucking tiger and they can drown along with him.

I crossed over to the GOP primary in 2016 to try thwarting Trump; this year I’ll stay with the Democrats — voting for Allred (our TX-32 rep, great guy) to take on Cruz and try to flip a Senate seat.

There is money supporting Haley's campaign, and those Democrats who are promoting her are grifters.

So Stephen Miller has this fantasy that red states will send National Guard troops into blue states to uproot and deport immigrants.

It's tough-guy posturing that makes zero sense if you spend more than half a second thinking about it.

Judge Engoron rejects Trump’s request to delay the enforcement of the penalties in his New York civil fraud case, telling the former president: “You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay.”

We'd love to stop publishing these kinds of features, but the danger is too great.

@BrynnTannehill74 takes a deep dive into what a Trump 2.0 presidency will look like.

It’s not hyperbole to say the re-election of the former president—twice indicted, with 91 felony counts against him—will threaten the safety of the nation and the world.

Banality Of Evil Super Stars: JIM JORDAN

The writer and philosopher HANNAH ARENDT coined the term "the banality of evil" to describe ADOLPH EICHMANN and the Nazi environment. Not only had they accepted a brutal, thoughtless approach to everything - where crimes against humanity could happen - they were, by nature, extremely banal themselves. And their own native banality contributed to the ease with which they adopted the brutality they applied to others.

No fare! Free bus rides raise questions of fairness, viability https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/nationworld/report/022224_free_rides/no-fare-free-bus-rides-raise-questions-fairness-viability/
It’s not surprising that free rides can juice ridership numbers for systems struggling to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting shift to at-home work. The question is whether such policies are financially sustainable — or fair, given that higher-income riders benefit too.
