By pushing the limits you mean breaking the rules, I agree.

That was fun. If you like double moves, moves under braking, track limit violations, etc

"But lost in the hand wringing was Donald Trump’s usual bombastic litany of lies, hyperbole, bigotry, ignorance, and fear mongering. His performance demonstrated once again that he is a danger to democracy and unfit for office.”

“In fact, the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump.”

Nate Silver was going to write this regardless of how Biden performed last night.

And there it is. Why on earth would the highest court in the land want to preserve the rule of law?!

Storming the Capitol and forcing Congress to go into hiding in the middle of session is no longer considered obstructing an official proceeding. Even when that proceeding is required by the freaking constitution. FFS

The right sure loves punching down. Just like the Bible tells us to do.

Odd, how Christian nationalists are more eager to put Christ into your children's schools than into their own Christianity.

How nice of them. A woman is having a miscarriage and needs a D+C to be sure it’s complete or she may become septic and die and they ‘allow’ that. How kind. And they punted it so as to be sure the next time the woman dies.

In 2022, Dem strategist Simon Rosenberg flatly asserted that there would be no "red wave" and the Dems would overperform expectations.

Nate Silver said the only way Rosenberg could come to that conclusion was that he'd been ingesting "hopium."

Rosenberg was right. Silver was wrong (though he'll die before admitting it).

Then Rosenberg started The Hopium Chronicles, which I suggest you read

In the NY-16 district election, Jamaal Bowman received 84% of the vote in the Bronx, a working class area. He did poorly in the suburbs of Westchester and ended up with 42% He lost in the suburbs. Why do you think that is?
