If 16 Year Old Girls Could Vote – The election would be over.
The beautiful thing about Taylor Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris is how respectful she presents it to her fans. She treats them like thinking humans, and isn't demanding their loyalty.
"Karma is a cat, purring in my lap because she loves me – stretching like a goddamn acrobat."
Taylor Swift is a brilliant musician and song-writer… and I'm not anywhere close to her target demographic.
I dislike dismissing Swift's fans as "16 year old girls". Swift has been a pop culture icon for at least a decade. Many of her fans can definitely vote.
Agree.
Absolutely true. Of course I just discovered Taylor Swift now that I have a pre-teen daughter.
Kamala has replaced DonOld as The Protagonist. Marcy at EmptyWheel.
Heather Cox-Richardson is worth reading in whole.
What Harris did last night was chathrtic for the nation. She looked directly at him and told him that he was a disgrace. People have waited a long time for someone to tell him to his face what a jerk he is.

Being in a cannabis-adjacent world I’ve come to realize what a Libertarian cult looks like in a political cycle where their chosen one is largely RFKJ. Thanks for the morning laugh!
PS: Trump’s stock is low enough this morning Matt Gaetz may just buy some and take it across state lines.
Yup, the professional traders in DJT stock are playing hot potato trying to lighten their positions before the inevitable crash. The Long Island boiler rooms are probably lighting up the phone lines looking for new marks to take the fall which is just a couple of weeks away. The outstanding number of shares are so thin, relative to Trump's and his insider buddies' holdings, trying to liquidate even 1% will crash the stock.
Top Democrats call on Army to rebuke Trump over Arlington photo shoot
If it's illegal to take photos and/or videos in Section 60 for political purposes then Trump's campaign should at least get a ticket or something.

"Cathartic win for Kamala Harris" (H/T TPM)
This entire article at "No more mister nice blog" is rewarding and worth reading..
Exactly! The thought came to my mind last night that he seems cloistered, and just not really that exposed to an honest exchange of ideas where thoughtful people might adjust their positions or abandon the ridiculous.
