Congrats to China, Russia and Israel. Ironic that Biden admin mishandling just one of these issues, even while handling others well, may lead to worst outcome of all three. Perhaps a tiny ME country just changed the course of history. In the dumbest timeline at least, for whatever that's worth.
I love that this article pops up in between others like "US votes for Project 2025 and civil war" and "Man with brain worms who eats roadkill set to run all health agencies".
Also, it will take a few days for all votes to be counted, in more populous areas, California, west coast. Don't know where it will land, but I think it's clear that D's especially did not vote in great numbers.
Happily voted Harris, to defeat the christian fascists. But I think her concession confirms that she was never going to be the fighter we needed.
First, Democrat's gamble on pushing aside the progressive core (thanks to incorrect reading of Biden popularity and protests over Israel's genocide) in favor of a coalition of former Republicans and mythical "decent conservatives" was a huge red flag. It has now proved absolutely catastrophic.
Second, "the high road" has rarely extracted more than the absolute minimum at the slowest possible pace. This election proved it has failed us. Peace is not an option anymore. Unfortunately, we're going to need to fight ruthlessly for every inch. Entrenched billionaire oligarchs, funding literally insane religious extremists and domestic terrorists. They will gleefully turn up the heat on our formerly cold civil war with their brutality over the next few years.
I hope by conservatives they meant Republicans (the MAGA cult of fascists and deranged lunatics). We'll see if there are enough conservatives that are "vehemently opposed" to all of this soon enough. The Harris team definitely thinks so, for what it's worth.
The people that still insist on voting for Trump, for possibly the third time, after a decade of this madness... can't blame anyone for losing patience and avoiding them. It's tragic, but the cult is real and has detached people from reality.
Citizens United invited them, legalized it. It took them a few years to get comfortable with it. Stolen supreme court, corrupted useless congress, fascist cult... I'm sure this will end well.
I love that this is a headline by (checks notes)... AP and PBS. During the most critical point in the election.
Trump's addled brain continues to spiral, obviously exhausted, wildly deranged, incapable of focus or discipline. "Elder abuse" some would question. "Weekend at Bernie's" others would observe, noting the billionaires behind him, desperately hemorrhaging cash to prop him up.
And yet, almost one hundred million Americans will still vote for him. What a magical time to be alive.
I have no doubt there are ordinary people saying this, but yes, they are probably just regurgitating the lies that are fed to them (by the usual suspects). It is not difficult, they've never experienced it, but they are still afraid of it (surprise).
'Life Is Complicated’: How a Scourge of Oligarchs Fell in Love With One
Natalia Morari once reported on corrupt business in Moldova. Now she has upset many by having a son with a tycoon accused of corruption, and running against the pro-West president in elections.
Feted by many fellow journalists and Western diplomats as a fearless scourge of corrupt oligarchs, Moldova’s most popular television host torched her soaring career and stellar image three years ago with a startling life choice.
She fell in love and had a child with one of her country’s most notorious and, according to prosecutors, most corrupt oligarchs.
Ostracized by many of her onetime friends and admirers, Natalia Morari, 40, has now caused yet more dismay by refashioning herself into a politician. She no longer works for the independent, award-winning television station she founded in 2006, and is running for president in an election on Sunday against the incumbent, Maia Sandu, the standard-bearer of a pro-European cause for which the journalist was for years a prominent champion.
And by their names and associations in a database somewhere. I bet there are even some cowards that think voting for him will somehow save them. (Spoiler: It won't, and he's laughing at these fools helping exterminate them.)
Unfortunately, your statement probably only deserves bothsides.jxl. Please attempt to honestly and objectively compare things, despite the personal inconvenience.
They make mistakes, but Firefox and Mozilla are obviously nowhere near as fucked up as Chrome and Google by any measure. And Firefox would only improve if people stopped running back to Chrome when something was not perfect.
Branch recently fired a bunch of their team, including all Nova support and all but one dev. (After raising hundreds of millions a few years ago.) Frankly Nova is still looking great, but Branch will strangle it eventually.
