Everyone should.
Harris’ only advantage is name recognition, to keep that fresh she’ll keep “endorsing” literally everyone, just to keep her name in the headlines.
The only way she’ll stop, is if candidates start publicly rejecting her.
I understand candidates just wanting to ignore her, but we need politicians willing to see they don’t want her support.
Sorry bud, I gave you more than enough chances
I invite you to really think of the implications of your suggestion
Have you thought of googling something you didn’t know about instead of trying to walk down the entire path of why it’s a law?

Weird that he wasn’t charged with that.
Again, it’s completely normal to charge and hold someone for a lesser charge that’s provable when they’re suspected of a more serious charge, that is honestly the norm in the American legal system…
You seem to be completely ignorant of how this all works. If you start asking questions you’ll learn more, most people will just give up because you’re trying to argue when you don’t know what you’re talking about
What does someone else gain by helping you understand something?
It’s not a joke, there’s a very plausible chance he’s dead, or seriously injured and not getting proper medical care.
If he’s dead, and the people around him are hiding it, then that is a very serious crime. If he’s seriously injured and not getting proper care, that’s elder abuse.
So when there’s a plausible chance, law enforcement can do a welfare check. They show up at the residence, and investigate.
Like, it’s a normal thing…
The reason I found a specific case in Kentucky like that, is to show that even just not reporting was a serious felony. The amount of bond is likely because that dude most likely killed his wife and that’s why he didn’t report her death, also that it involved him sending messages pretending to be her. With McConnell releasing public messages to his constituents, if those aren’t him it’s even more serious.
Tyler Hern was booked into the Campbell County Detention Center on $500,000 bond. He was charged with felony abuse of a corpse.
Maybe?
He was “sent home” but that’s likely a DC residence.
If he said he was in Kentucky, then Kentucky authorities can (and should) dona wellness check.
If he said he was in DC, then Kentucky would have to request DC authorities do it.
These democrats are humiliatingly weak.
A Governor only has authority in their state…
Shit ton of red states facing historic floods…
And Trump’s “emergency” is his ballroom…
9·2 days agoFinally some truth in advertising…

The “shifting attitudes”:
Say climate change is a very big problem.” In 2016, it was 40%. It was 40%. Look where we are in 2026 — it’s 39%, it’s 39%.
Repeating the same number twice doesn’t make a 1% change a big deal…
It’s not one of the top three issues for voters right now.
Just like a 45 year old who just got his foot cut off doesn’t have “get my prostate checked” as a current medical health priority
It doesn’t mean he’s not worried about cancer, doesn’t mean he doesn’t think he needs checked.
But right now there’s other more pressing concerns.
I mean…
This has been in the news before, also his other daughter that lobbies for Facebook.
This isn’t a unique thing, neoliberals held the reigns for 30 years and they set their kids up in lots of cushy positions especially at tech companies
Neoliberals and tech bros have been in bed together since they agreed to claim the dotcom boom was somehow caused by tax cuts after it started
Ok…
So complain about Fortune magazine…
Or at least click the link to see which part of the headline AOC actually said before blaming her for the entire headline.
Like, it’s just such a weird line to care enough to read the headline and write a comment…
But not take the two seconds to see what her actual quote says.
“Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We’re grown adults with mortgages and kids,” she said. “And we—that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, sidelined, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us on everything from the economy to climate. And we’re taking the reins.”
What about that is “generational warfare” that upset you so much?
Do you disagree with the reality of what she’s saying?
Or do you acknowledge it’s true, and are just upset someone said it? Because saying it is what wins elections.
I think the big difference between boomers and gen X/Millennial isn’t so much “aging gracefully” it’s “aging realistically”.
Like, there wasn’t as much pressure to “grow up” most of us saw all this shit coming and just knew we didn’t have the numbers, but still kept trying.
So we avoided midlife crisis (mostly) and just maintained the same personality and interests the whole time.
So now, were still relatively the same mentally, so acknowledging that our bodies are obviously not the same as 20 years ago isn’t something to freak out about and but a Corvette.
Like, getting old sucks, but it’s better than the alternative…
It’s a generational issue…
For the entirety of America’s recent decline, Boomers have been the largest voting demographic.
They were the ones active in primaries dragging both parties parties right and fucking up almost every aspect of American society.
No one is saying the problem is every single person in that demographic.
But it is 100% that demographics fault. Because they’re the ones that spent a literal lifetime voting for it.
The problem isn’t just the boomer politicians, it’s all the boomer voters who see voting for anyone younger than themselves as a personal insult.
They’re openly age discriminating against anyone younger than them, but anytime you get generations attempt to discuss it, boomers crawl out of the fucking woodwork saying “this” is why they can’t do the thing we were just saying you can’t do
That’s some big “all
livesgenerations matter” energy you got there…
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee endorsed Cooke, which angered some local Democrats who saw it as interfering in a primary.
It 100% is interfering in a primary…
And the reason neoliberals have to use the DCCC and DSCC to interfer in primaries now, is because they no longer control the DNC and can’t use that to rig down ballot primaries anymore.
Neither organization has any power, they’re just making a lot of noise so people blame “the party” because the only chance a neoliberal has to be become president, is a corrupt DNC. And they don’t have that, so they need a DNC leadership changeover under any pretext.
The DNC hasn’t endorsed anyone, this one isn’t going to endorse anyone in any primary, but I’m looking forward to them endorsing Hong the second she wins
I don’t know what your point is.
But my take away is Stephen Semler doesn’t know how to label an X axis clearly.
The obvious choice is every four years for presidential administrations, with a midpoint for Senate changes.
With labels not just for year, but presidents name and Congress majorities.
If people are going to use apss/sites to generate graphs at least put two fucking seconds of thought it
Like that Y axis?!
The only reason Im not positive Semler is a troll, is he didnt put a $, but the “B” alone is bad.
Maybe whoever made that app/site just didn’t know what they were doing
Anyone dumb enough to be swayed by this, is already voting R in every election…
However, it was funny to hear that everyone who’s “remixed” the original ad has lost, including Hillary.
Just highlights how out of touch the people prompting these are, how many people will even get the original LBJ reference? And of the ones who do, how many Texas Republicans would have favorable memories of an LBJ campaign video?
I mean…
His dad was an adult when he met his mom (who was a child) and they met because he walked up and flashed his dick to her and her (also underaged) friends…
Like, the son was raised by at least one pedophile, and the other was at least ok with pedophila…
Obama fucked a lot of shit up…
But one thing he was willing to do, was tell Israel no.
It pissed Biden off so much, he publicly denounced Obama over it, because even till the day he left office from his first day as a Senator, Joe Biden always said: “The only way to negotiate with Israel, is give them everything they want”
That was his legitimate belief, so when Obama didn’t say “yes”, Biden shit talked him.
Even after he became president, Biden insisted you have to always say “yes” no matter what Israel asks:
Biden recounted in private that when he was vice president in 2014 and Israel mounted a military assault on Gaza, Obama and his staff rejected his belief, held for decades, that the best way to approach the Israelis is to hug them close but not criticize them, the people familiar with his comments said.
Instead, they said Biden has noted, Obama publicly admonished Israel’s actions and voiced concern for Palestinian civilian deaths early into the 2014 conflict. As a result, Biden has argued, Obama squandered any ability to influence the Israeli government as it invaded Gaza, said the people familiar with his comments.
The president’s private comparisons with his former boss subsided as outrage over rising civilian deaths in Gaza eclipsed the early praise for his approach, according to three of the people familiar with his comments. More than 14,000 Palestinians have been killed so far, according to the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Department.
It’s a very low bar, so while I am might have been the “best” in modern history, doesn’t mean he was perfect or even better than El-Sayed or other new names.
