Via david.heath.writer on Threads:

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 lied when she blamed this on Joe ’s border policies and when she said it happened in the U.S.

Why do people never verify their examples?

Do they really think no-one will check?

Have they never heard of the internet?

Early exit poll data — via NBCNews:

primary voters who will NOT support the GOP nominee, regardless of who it is:

: 35% won't guarantee their vote for the Republican

: 36% won't guarantee their vote

: 33% won't guarantee their vote

@GottaLaff I love the high %.

But it confuses me that people voted in a republican primary, presumably for a loser, I mean republican, but won't vote for a republican in the general election.

So why did they bother to vote in the primary?

Or are they messing with the pollster?

Someone (follower) just DMd me accusing me of being a 'drag on support' of Dems.

Why? He said "we're all supporting the democracy coalition", & I explained that many in my replies are angry, not supportive. He accused me of something something Hillary's emails re Biden... not sure what that meant, but it was offensive.

If anyone ever accuses me of not supporting Biden in this election, they haven't read my TL or listened to me on air.

Talk about offensive. I blocked.

..also asked to pause enforcement of finan penalty & wide range of other punishments the judge levied.”

I, at this point, don't see why, as a listener, I want/need a podcast app that supports Podcasting 2.0.

Why should I suggest to @marcoarment change to support this?

Seems like another way to inject monetization and advertising into apps and podcast.

@caseyliss Agreed. But I chased the rabbit a little to see the namespace spec, https://podcasting2.org/podcast-namespace.

Beyond some organizational and meta data stuff the only things of substance seemed to be the monetization and advertising tags.

Well, Jan 6th was a thing, and a few people, unfortunately, died. But it was barely a blip on the country's collective radar. It had basically no impact on Americans.

There would have to be many days like J6 and much more violence to wake up the country. 💔

In the aftermath of Dobbs, abortion has emerged as a game-changing 'wedge' issue, creating an opportunity that Democrats could very well seize in the upcoming election. It's going to take a bit of chess, but if played correctly, the issue could power turnout and keep key battleground states in the blue column next year: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/gop-wedge-issue-abortion-2024

@georgetakei I'm glad there is an issue that seems to resonate.

What shocks me is others don't like:

If you can't download shows on the TWiT network since yesterday, it may be due to an ad-blocking VPN, DNS, or router, such as Eero Plus.

To temporarily alleviate the problem, disable those ad-blocking features, or add this to your allow-list if you have such functionality: twit.cachefly.net

(Ad/tracking-blockers completely break on podcast downloads. Podcast ads don't work the same way as scripts on web pages, and can't be blocked without blocking the audio downloads completely.)
