Jackson, Mississippi. Democracy is the most important thing. No sugar in my cornbread. That’s not a metaphor.

From the outset, there were musings on the left and right about what a candidate who espoused Trump’s hardline positions but without the toxicity and erraticness might look like. Now we know. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The senator from Ohio carries all of Trump’s politics and far less of his baggage.

An argument the GOP is using against transitioning to cleaner energy is that is means buying products from China. That’s in part because a decade ago, the GOP fervently opposed building capacity in the US. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

During the vice-presidential debate, Sen. JD Vance presented the right’s new case for not taking climate change seriously — a new case that rests on the old case.

My mother, who called Biden’s performance being a disaster, watched the whole thing & said “Walz isn’t a natural debater but seemed authentic & had a strong finish, Vance was slick & smooth in all the wrong ways, this won’t move the needle at all” & I suspect she’s right.

This right here. This was exactly my take on it. Vance reminded me why I can’t stand him.

I think this is the result of a constant drumbeat that the media had a liberal bias. It wasn’t a complaint; it was a campaign orchestrated by the same people who declared FoxNews “fair and balanced.” And it worked. The media now bashes the Dems regularly to prove they aren’t “liberal.”

I see a lot of references to Vance being a smooth talker. He’s not smooth, he’s slick.

Just so everyone knows, the "mass deportations will bring down high housing costs" is a soft eugenics argument that comes directly from the Tanton network. It's an old chestnut of theirs, just like saying that undocumented people take care away from veterans. It's all bullshit
