Our current President once speculated he would win so much his supporters would tire of it. This betrays a lack of nerve and will. True W fans cannot get enough.

Biden *sounded* old but if you do a transcript of his statements he’s like omitting the occasional word—often in a way characteristic of a speech impediment—or swapping “Macron” for “Mitterrand” in an otherwise perfectly cogent anecdote about a French president This is actual nonsense

This can't be like the FBI, where Republicans treat it as a purely partisan office, and Democrats respect their choices. If we're going to have a unitary executive, the next Democratic president should pledge to purge every single Trump appointee on day one.

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.
