“There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there be just men, unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked; again, there be wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous: I said that this also is vanity.” - Ecclesiastes

This is such an incredible line. “Indeed, among roughly two dozen workers and regulars interviewed this week at Rome’s three Waffle House locations, none said they were aware of anyone traveling to the 24-hour restaurants by paranormal means, despite their reputation as powerful magnets for the sort of idiosyncratic characters who tend to surf the psychic fringes of the American South.”

All of these people rely 100% on leftists having short memories and not knowing how to google things and you know what? They might be right. Because they think you’re stupid, and people keep proving them right.

In our continuing series “Well, that was a fucking lie…” here is Kat Abughazaleh claiming she didn’t take any outside money. If that was the case…then what was this whole cash-only, private fundraising event she held in LA? LA is still outside IL-09, right?

@RepScholten I'm very sorry to hear this, Rep. Scholten, and I'm very sorry that you have to address this publicly. I hope you are able to not get too depressed. Lots of folks are rooting for you!

Good call! I can’t think of a better working example of Hasan’s game than this. He claims he’s being shunned by the party, but Pete Buttigieg’s team has reached out to appear on his show and gotten turned down. Then Hasan goes to the press and maligns him, calling him a centrist and saying the party fears him. So the guy who’s M4All Who Want It is becoming the mainstream position with progressives like AOC and El-Sayed is too centrist? The one who wants a billionaire tax? Who proposed reforming the Supreme Court before anyone else? Who wants a national service program to build communities? Who spearheaded rebuilding working class infrastructure? Made air travel cheaper and safer for working class families? The guy who wants to reform the senate? Not merely that, but the idea that Pete is somehow a shill of the party is laughable! He’s successful precisely because he rises above the establishment, advocates for real things, and captures people’s attention including independents and center right Republicans. In poll after poll he’s the most popular active politician in America across the spectrum, and his influence is many times greater than Hasan’s. Maybe Hasan would be served well to have Pete on if he wants to go mainstream and talk to middle America instead of just teenagers and other rich influencers and journalists. Does @PeteButtigieg scare @hasanthehun for some reason? Is he afraid he’s out of his depth? Is he still carrying petty grudges for his friends (people with positions ostensibly higher than Pete’s) Pete beat on the terms of their own rules? Or is he aware Pete’s far from what he says he is since he literally said he doesn’t want him on to give him exposure? I am very curious!

Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs)
Someone who read an early draft of the Michael script said that the third act is dominated by the conniving and greedy parents who forced their children to make false accusations. I wonder how much of that made it to the movie.

The okayest poster there is
In the last 36-48 hours, in response to jittery markets calling bullshit on his war plan, Trump declared 100% tariffs on pharmaceuticals, fired his attorney general, and began a purge of senior (career) military leaders. Wonder how he'll handle this incident (after markets close)

A McDonnell-Douglas ACES II (Advanced Concept Ejection Seat) from a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle has been found by residents in Southern Iran, the whereabouts or status of the pilot and weapons officer is currently unknown, with unconfirmed reports that one or both of the crewmembers have been captured by members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

@nguyenhdi Ultimately I agree with Bloom in that most Pottermaniac kids didn't go on to be Dostoevsky fans, but he's too incurious as to WHY Potter had such widespread and enduring appeal

I've never returned to "Harry Potter" since I read them in Vietnamese as a kid, but we should ask why no children's literature in my lifetime has been as popular & successful as this series. I was there during the height of "Twilight" mania for example, nobody cares about it now.

@GambelerQuail Yeah I think the husband has to be pulling in one and a half times to two times an average salary to really allow for a stay-at-home mom

I had a SAHM so what I see as an adult is that most women have to have two jobs, being mom and having an actual job. If you want to do this in current year (and even the 90s) your husband basically has to have an award winning career.

Children in the West grow up seeing their own working mothers tired, worn out, & burdened by the second shift. From the outside careerism often looks glamorous--but children get to see it from the inside x.com/BradWilcoxIFS/…

My pollster friends have done focus groups with double haters, and if you want to understand why the United States is a declining power in the world, just spend 15 minutes with them.
InteractivePolls@IAPolls2022

CNN Poll: One-quarter of voters are "double haters" (dislike both parties). They currently prefer Democrats by 31 points in the midterms. —— How double haters voted (CNN exit polls): 🔴 2016: Trump +17 🔵 2018: Dems +1 🔵 2020: Biden +15 🔴 2022: GOP +15 🔴 2024: Trump +23
