Nepotism.

Wait, I’ve seen this movie! We need Robert* Langdon to find clues in art to solve this!

Corrected, thanks!

phoenixz , in The Obamas Endorse Harris: 'This Is Going to Be Historic'

Wow, in actually starting to feel a little hope for the future of this world. Trump as president will be a disaster for this entire world, all of US. All citizens in the world should have a vote since the US has made itself so important, yet all of us depend on democrats who aren’t sure if they should vote and religious extremists who want trump.

thesporkeffect , in Two billionaire Harris donors hope she will fire FTC Chair Lina Khan

This would be a great way for Harris to fully bidenize any enthusiasm the general public has for her candidacy.

Personally I’m saving empty glass bottles for no particular reason, I hope there continues to be no reason in the future

Don’t forget to stock up on your oily rags. Never know when those will come in handy.

NegativeInf ,

But do not store them all together, as oily rags in sufficient heat, less than you think, can spontaneously combust.

A single family fucking up everyone’s lives in multiple ways. I guess we come from Adam and Eve now. You know, multicultural and open to other religions.

When asked for comment on the ramifications of operating business efficiently upon an already struggling working class, who are finding it increasingly difficult to secure housing and adequate nutrition for themselves and their children, Diller's lips formed a smile twice as broad as his face, eyes glossing over as he stared dreamily into the distance with eyes twinkling like the night sky.

The above quote may or may not actually appear in the linked article.

WatDabney , in Trump mocks Kamala Harris' name but her campaign is putting it front and center

All the way through this ordeal of Biden possibly, then actually, stepping down, I’ve been sort of lukewarm about the idea of Harris replacing him for one and only one reason - because I assumed that, since she’s the VP and the obvious first choice for a replacement, the Trump campaign would already have a complete hate campaign against her primed and ready to go, so could potentially catch her and the Dems flat-footed.

It’s astonishing how wrong I was.

They have been making it up as they go since 2015. There’s no real plan other than win.

Which is why the Heritage Foundation made sure to spell out a 900-page plan this time.

NineMileTower ,

Honestly, I think it’s because they underestimate black people and women. They would never have thought democrats would run a black woman, because they wouldn’t.

And it’s not like Sleepy Joe was a brilliant name either, it just stuck for the flag buying morons.

MyEdgyAlt , (edited ) in JD Vance Doubles Down on Attack on 'Childless Cat Ladies'.

This feels misleading.

Vance made it clear, said Aaron Fritschner, deputy chief of staff for Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.), “that he meant no disrespect to cats, but he did mean to demean women and still holds the view in 2024 that they should be punished for not having children.”

So the actual quote here is from a chief of staff of a Democratic representative, not from dolphin-loving couch-loving JD Vance. So it’s an accusation that interprets for us. And the tweet the article cites heavily edits the text it quotes:

“Obviously it was a sarcastic comment. I’ve got nothing against cats. … People are focusing so much on the sarcasm and not on the substance … and the substance of what I said, Megyn — I’m sorry, it is true.”

Heres a video of the clip without the editing: therecount.com/watch/…/2645895762

Ok, so the edits here at least aren’t misleading…

Then based on the 9 minute clip of her show in the original article, it seems like he’s claiming the substance is not about the cat lady comment, but some lies about what Democrats believe about families (democrats think kids are for the economy, republicans want to make it easier for women to stay in the workforce (I mean, is there a more blatant lie than that? They’re the ones who fight against extending COVID-era childcare credits!), etc). That’s what says he’s doubling down on. And given the context that does truly seem to be the lies he’s doubling down on.

Let’s try to stick to sincere, defensible attacks against people for whom there are many valid attacks, and not spread misleading claims that JD is doubling down on “crazy cat ladies”. He’s shit and we can demonstrate that in good faith, or we can lie like he does.

peopleproblems ,

Right. Saying JD Vance is a couch lover may be an out right lie. It’s more important that we state what we know; we cannot prove he never had sex with a couch.

Cryophilia ,

I just think it’s funny that JD Vance knows better than to anger the cats.

@dogsnest@lemmy.world avatar

When asked why, the Trump campaign, in a statement to ABC News, said “race and gender have nothing to do with why Kamala Harris is the most unpopular Vice President in history.”

Citation, motherfuckers?

Wilzax ,

You kind of need to start assuming that anything coming out of his mouth is a lie. They are right less than 50% of the time.

DoctorWhookah , in Two billionaire Harris donors hope she will fire FTC Chair Lina Khan

If big business liked her she wouldn’t be doing her job. I saw her on Jon Stewart and she’s smart AF! I kinda gotta low key thing for her now. Should I tell my SO?

dohpaz42 ,
@dohpaz42@lemmy.world avatar

Yes. Tell your SO. It’s a celebrity crush. Many people in relationships have them. Maybe you two can even role play and get spicy. Good luck!

Oh, baby! I’m almost there. Say it again. Say, “too big to fail is too big to exist,” again!

Not quite what I was thinking, but if that works for you, who am I to judge? 🤓
