Mike so mad he wasted his night on this
Mike so mad he wasted his night on this
Oops
Speaking of imaginary players, do u agree that alcaraz would be better - than sinner - if his serve was 90% as good as Sinner’s?
God lol now I’m imagining him with Federer’s serve or 90% of it hahahhh
lol but Federer had a far better and more consistent serve
what to make
Yeah I honestly don’t know what tk make of hearing that; unless it’s Indian Wells I’m gonna assume it’s a lot faster than clay
I really wanted a rematch after Cincinnati haha how much of that match did u see live; I wasn’t even planning on watching but it went so long I caught final 75 minutes on my laptop
yeah in terms of play speed
U watched that match right lol I was so sure alcaraz would roll through him but became clear first set medvedev was favored bc they were tied in points despite medvedrv double faulting like 7 times first few games
1 thing which gave me pause is hearing the commentators say they think the courts are playing like red clay
Yeah he looked great 2 yrs ago too played the min number of sets through to the SF and then he got beat badly by Medvedev
I don’t think he’s beating Sinner lol
U agree that alcaraz isn’t beating djokovic in the Semis if we get there, yes?
Yeah what ur prediction for tomorrow; I really don’t know about lehecka
lol I want sinner to lose so much hahah but I know he won’t
Nevada trended RIGHT more than almost any other state from 2012-2016 and 2016-2020; Obama won NV by 2% more than he won nationally in 12; Hillary wins the state by same as national vote; Biden wins NV by 2% less than his national vote victory
That's the thing about these bathroom bills. They definitely harm people, and they don't help anyone. It's the worst kind of political posturing. The heartlessness of these kind of bills and the associated discussion is beyond callous.
Ie if the 2018 election had just been an ok pro dem yr instead of massive wave, sisolak likely never even becomes Governor. It’s just a very tough state for Dems and getting tougher bc Dems are losing uneducated people nationally and Nevada is very not college educated
Cortez masto did net 2% better in 2022 compared to sisolak; she had a far larger money advantage and a far worse R opponent; sisolak only won by 3.5% in 2018 against the same awful opponent and a historical national dem +9 wave
Asian countries like South Korea and Japan were immensely successful bc they took masking and contact tracing very seriously
I thought this guy was being ironic but is just manic.
Literally bragging about this being their analysis lmao then 15 yrs later all press and moron pseudo scientific scum treat both as such serious thinkers about valuing life lmao
Yeah their logic was that brokies going die anyway from different disease haha

The same people who were arguing against bush helping infinite people in Africa not die of aids @rod34gt.bsky.social
The United States had one of the worst COVID outcomes in the entire world from a body count standpoint. Anyone who argues with a straight face we were TOO cautious is an unserious imbecile.
Seems like as good a time as any to reshare my story on the Coffee County voting system breach, which details the key role Giuliani played in Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/what...
lol
If the colonial press responded to the British occupation of Boston with "but crime in Boston is down???" That would've been fuckin insane and I don't know if we would've had a goddamned revolution.
Yes
"Remigration" is shorthand for "ethnic cleansing". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigra...
Musk now supporting the deportation of anyone who isn’t white. *Do not* use the term “remigration”. It’s an attempt to normalise Nazi hate.
Mark is right, although I confess I am a hypocrite here, for I wholly support the "remigration" of Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. They have failed to assimilate to our cultural norms and instead have tried to impose their foreign backwards ways upon us, and so must be removed to protect our heritage.
I think it means "not liking Nate Silver"
Lieberman kneecapped Gore on national TV prospect.org/politics/202...
That was written by the chamber of commerce and Republican senators lol
I would take center right reformers more seriously if they didn't foist some of the malicious people on earth as great examples of their program
The 2024 election was a national referendum on living in factual reality and trying to address challenges responsibly. A plurality said no, even if some didn't consciously grasp that. Another example: Trump & Vance lying so much it hindered FEMA response to NC floods. Then the state voted for them.
George W’s approval went into the 90s after he allowed 9-11 to happen.
the next 4 Elections were about calling Democrats soft on terrorism; elected Democrats like Tom Daschle couldn't believe how nasty Bush and Rove were after they were so nice to Bush after 9/11, not blaming him at all
The people who control our information environment want to help Trump so have waged a years long propaganda campaign to turn his most deadly disaster into something else.
The sole mention of RFK Jr's opposition to vaccines is a throwaway aside in the 12th graf of the story, amidst some credulous useful idiocy from Zeke Emanuel. Nothing about his destruction of medical research in America. It treats him like he and Obama are pursuing the same goal slightly differently
This is, I swear to Christ, the lead story at the Atlantic Monthly right now
They don’t care about consistency they are just pure lying propagandists
This is exactly right! The Right’s core claim is that they represent an authentic, “real" America that is constantly being victimized, made to suffer under the yoke of leftist/liberal overreach, and therefore rightfully aggrieved. And too many Democrats/liberals look at that and go: “I agree.”
No one cares about reality; have you been in a coma since June of 2015
Reality doesn’t matter when media and pundits just repeatedly spew narratives from the past 50 years; no one cares
It’s actually a misunderstanding that the Nazi party organized book burnings. Usually it was rightwing students at universities who organized them, then asked the party to sponsor events and send speakers, bands, and drill teams. Ergo, beware the petty tyrants in your local community or the PTA.
FLASHBACK: Jim Carrey shows us what compassion and being fearless looks like. These are virtues worth fighting for. WATCH: #Resist
John Hickenlooper is 73 years old. He has also voted for more Trump nominees than any democrat other than Fetterman. Another John Hickenlooper term is too risky. Hickenlooper should retire.
He means that everyone on the internet who mocks him should not be allowed to do so
This is not something that any intelligent person would have thought even in Jan 2022
The funny thing about this is virtually everyone in power in the Democratic Party came to the same conclusion. Biden and his White House and all congressional leadership spent years deliberately elevating Adams’ profile, claiming that he would help the party.
Wise advice from the dude with other smart opinions bsky.app/profile/numb...
so much to unpack here, starting with how Nate Silver thinks he can recognize what’s “normal”
Did his Silicon Valley fascist handlers tell him to Tweet this out on the Nazi app?
They don’t come out and say this bc it sounds bad, but it’s exceptionally obvious.
yeah virtually everyone who participates in these conversations could not have cared less if the staff at a school got Covid and died from it
the premise from virtually everyone who talks incessantly about schools throughout Covid is that the staff who work there don't matter - at all; not so surprising that the same people want to defund and abolish public schools lol
I think - to his credit - he's fairly honest about being in favor of everything Rs are passing through congress lol
hahahah
Schatz is particular brags about how he mostly watches Fox News; Newsom is well known to do this as well; they mainline the bile all day
while simultaneously helping Rs draw Gerrymanders to kill incumbent Dem members of congress in Ohio and Virginia
Sean Trende has never voted for trump in a primary or general…he’s only spent his entire career as a political analyst working to ensure republicans are elected lol
too mean to Bush as well; they all adore W Bush.
Erick Erickson and Sean Trende have traded their families’ health for the fleeting chance to own the libs. I hope they are very happy with their life choices. I feel bad for the innocent family members they have sacrificed for their greed and narcissism but don’t feel bad for them at all.
Trump and RFK Jr. have helped prevent Son of Erick’s cancer-stricken wife from getting a COVID vaccine, and are now preventing Sean Trende’s son from getting the help he needs with autism, and they both blame Democrats for trying to prevent COVID deaths when all the hospitals were full. Deranged.
I'm fairly certain that Schatz does know this! He just doesn't care.
Coming back to this, Trump was pushing RFK antivax stuff all the way back to the 2015 primary. And he barely got any fight back from bums like Rand Paul and Carson despite them being physicians. Does Schatz know that? Is he equipped with battling anyone in a debate? No.
lol the Atlantic rules
the really funny part is that Fauci only became so famous because trump trusted him to lie to the public for him; the public health officials - like nancy messonoir - who trump didn't trust to lie to the Cameras were shunned in very early 2020
You could not pay me to live in Texas or any other red state. Just lawless, shithole places with such a comical disregard for life, all under the banner of “freedom.”
national Republican groups weren't even trying to win NJ bc they assumed Murphy was ahead by so much; imagine the swing in NJ if they had been trying, as they did in VA
the swing in VA was less than the swing in New Jersey; comparing the Governor results to the Presidential results of 12 months prior VA didn't have an incumbent with an infinite money advantage - as Murphy did in NJ - either
Schatz should never have been a Senator. I still blame Neil Abercrombie for defying the last wish of the late Daniel Inoyue.
schatz has been spewing about this since 2021; he legitimately believes in it; it's not about conceding points to be nice to right wingers
Covid precautions are one of the few high salience political issues of recent memory which consistently garnered 65% + national support; for the 2+ years over which pollsters were repeatedly asking about it
Here's that "voice of the volk" Wm. Ames Curwright, the organizer of the Gathering of the Eagles events, posing for a pic at CPAC 2014 with Joseph Farrah, the editor of WND. He's the person who in 2011 convinced an NYC billionaire to double down on birtherism as his ticket to political prominence.
Anyway...Dems need to break out of the impulse to see 200 white people protesting against Covid restrictions as "the voice of the people which we must heed" while seeing 10X as many people protesting racist police violence as "a niche special interest group that's out of step with real Americans."
I watched Katrina: Come Hell and High Water on Netflix. Fuck everyone for trying to rehabilitate anyone from the George W. Bush administration.
No Democratic electeds should be allowed to have Twitter accounts anymore because that platform is rotting their brains and the brains of their staffers who monitor the account for them.
"In his place, President Trump must listen to doctors and scientists and nominate a health secretary and a C.D.C. director who will protect the health and well-being of the American people." We all know Trump is an antivaxxer too right?
Seriously why does Bernie always feel compelled to hand it to the fascists. He was very vocal he was really into Trump's border talk to even though it very obviously was a pretext for ethnic cleansing.
"Mr. Kennedy and the rest of the Trump administration tell us, over and over, that they want to Make America Healthy Again. That’s a great slogan. I agree with it" Ugh dude. What?
lol
UK labour calling Dems wokies and them leaking to gutter rags that they like Trump and have more in common with him as now they are being called race traitors by Elmo
RCP is a gutter far right psycho and treated good faith by all of the center left is basically doom pilling
You know, the first 50 to 100 times conservatives insisted they radicalized because the left made them, I thought they had a point But now, I'm starting to suspect that they're doing in bad faith
they don't care lol obviously if they did they would point this out; they personally agree with the scum like propagandists at RCP
Or that Bhattacharya and Makary were wrong about basically everything during the pandemic and are out saying they personally know people that DIED from the vaccine. RFK is the figurehead, but the other guys are actually more damaging to our healthcare system.
It feels impressively racist how most pundits and electeds don't just point out "hey dumbfuck, the George Floyd protests were outdoors, you fucking stupid or what."
Most elected Democrats are just bad at the game of politics. And, to be honest, for most the job is above their pay grade. It's why they always pretend like Trump or RFK Jr are the problem, its easy. It's why they get owned by dipshit partisans like an RCP hack and the hobbyist.
They love Donald Trump and want him to rule us like a king.
This story by #TimArango an embarrassment. This isn’t a crime strategy; it’s an authoritarian one. WTF is wrong with these reporters and editors? www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
I think Twitter is accelerating the process far more than COVID did
