The press could tell an accurate story about how Biden's 50 yrs of legislative experience helped him pass huge infra & green energy bills through a 50-50 Senate that contributed to a robust recovery. The feedback loop of a million stories about his age leading to a million stories about polls showing that voters to worry about his age was an editorial choice.
Holy shit. Univision, the nation's largest Spanish-language network, has decided to cancel ad-buys by the #Biden campaign in Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, & Florida after #Trump met with their executives last week. Our media continues to fail us. This is how our democracy dies.
Journalist Jonathan Katz fact checked Katie Britt’s horrific rape story from her over-the-top rebuttal.
Despite all the drama, it turns out to be a story that happened 20 years ago - and not in the U.S. but in Mexico. It’s a story that was recounted in Congressional testimony in 2015.
Katie #Britt lied when she blamed this on Joe #Biden’s border policies and when she said it happened in the U.S. #SOTU
"It is the first time since the Oct. 7 attack that the U.S. has stopped a weapons shipment intended for the Israeli military."
I would hope those on the left recognize this as a tangible improvement in US policy in the region. We can certainly want more and think this is not enough while also recognizing the progress (much of which is likely stemming from the recent pushback and protests).
This is why many of us have been yelling about the dangers of unregulated AI for years.

The #NewHampshire attorney general's office says it's investigating what appears to be an "unlawful attempt" at voter suppression after NBC News reported on a robocall impersonating President #Biden telling recipients not to vote in the presidential primary.
Joyce Vance: “This is a five-alarm fire. We know what the reaction would be if Joe #Biden tweeted a photo of a bound and gagged Donald #Trump in the trunk of an electric car. Why does Donald Trump get more leeway, especially with his past history? He only continues to get it because our institutions—the courts, the Republican party—let him take it.”
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has endorsed President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign, a sign of the president’s strength in uniting his party to have the backing of one of its most liberal members.
The big story should be that a Republican prosecutor didn’t find grounds to charge Biden and inserted gratuitous commentary that aligns with GOP talking-points during an election year in an attempt to influence the outcome. That should really be a huge scandal. #Election2024#biden#trump
Trump is a lunatic, rapist, traitor, and wannabe dictator who tried to overthrow the government to stay in power and can’t distinguish fantasy from reality and revels in inflicting cruelty on other humans.
Joe Biden is a middle of the road politician who despite his many flaws on the whole ACTUALLY has done good things for America and especially American workers.
Voting for Joe Biden over Trump is literally the easiest choice in my lifetime. #biden#trump
“Does U.S. want a "well-meaning elderly man," or one who means ill? Would rather have a POTUS who briefly confused Egypt for Mexico, or one who'd start a war on the border?
On the slow train wreck of democracy - it doesn't have to be this way.”
Holy shit #Biden is just directly, aggressively trolling the #GOP members in the room. "You mean you're not planning on passing another 2 trillion dollar tax cut for rich people? I thought that was your plan? Good to know." Epic. #politics#USPol#SOTU
