This is acceding to an “alternative facts” universe that we all need to reject. If news orgs want to argue that they are covering the news to the best of their ability, they need to be able to provide fact checks to the best of their ability. Letting the candidates do this is a recipe for disaster.

CBS News says it will be up to the candidates, not the moderators, to fact-check each other.

I was skeptical initially, but I am now 100% behind the Harris campaign's decision to limit media contact. There is no upside to having every substantive proposal picked apart while journos let the other guy get away with nonense like "we'll lower grocery prices by cutting energy costs in half."

What's unfolding in Western NC and E Tennessee is a disaster of monumental proportions--please keep the people there in your thoughts and help as you can. BUT ALSO: Project 2025 wants to dismantle NOAA (weather tracking/warnings), FEMA, and effective governance in general. Remember that as you vote

This 👇 Climate change will up end regular life wherever you live. If you are way inland, drought, fire, rain bombs, etc. On or near the coast, floods, landslides, etc. Those who are still in denial or ideologically motivated to deny it are suicidal.
