Nate Silver is back today arguing for Biden to step down in August.

And a huge shit show over a Simon Rosenberg interview. All kinds of pollsters jumping into the fray.

All of it just seems so disingenuous. The chaos if Biden stepped down in August. And Nate Silver would love it.

He is just so gross.

Lucy Caldwell, a Never Trumper, has repeatedly warned about donating to campaigns that are unwinnable. She points to Marcus Flowers, the Democrat who challenged MTG. He collected a ton of $$ and was never going to win.

She recently encouraged people to start donating to campaigns now. She said it helps with staffing and building out the campaign as they don't need to guess about what $$ is coming later this summer.

Here are 11 Democratic congressional candidates that can win.

“ 'I’m the king of a lost world! I’m the king and I will destroy you!' Javier Milei bellowed into the microphone on Wednesday night as Argentina’s showman president took to the stage for his first stadium gig since his election last year.”

These men...and so many people think this is what a president should be.

Right? That is the part of Handmaid's Tale that I think may not be that bad. Gilead does not consist of all of the states. Parts of the west coast and other regions remain outside.

Although I think the TV show is wrong about which reasons will be part of Gilead. I guess there was a map shown briefly which had Gilead consisting of New England and the Rust Belt. Rebels controlled the west coast, TX, and FL.

"We can't let him pull off this fraud as being a strong man as opposed to a weak man." - Simon Rosenberg

This comment is in a segment about brand architecture.

"We cannot obey advance. We cannot allow their attempt to spook us into believing that they're going to win this election. There is nothing that we can do."

Trump must appear strong, and many others need this election to be a horserace.

The organizations that held her up as an alternative to Trump should be ashamed.

She is a vile person.

There was also a number of GOP women, such as Alyssa Farah, pushing it. They seemed to be either looking for any reason not to vote for Biden OR were simply grifting.

So while you & I might think its necessary to speed up the Green Transition & enhance/accelerate measures to reduce emissions, Shell's shareholders disagree.

The firm has just sought & obtained agreement from investors to slow down its measures to mitigate its environmental impact & reduce progress towards its own (already weak) climate targets.

More reason(s) the fossil fuels sector cannot really be central to climate response(s).

We don't have the time to slow down!

And a lot of the services that were in place to boost wartime production were dismantled.

On the west coast, the Kaiser shipyards had free daycare centers that operated 24/7, so parents could work graveyard and swing shifts. And they were high quality programs.
