“I was brought up in a small town where I knew the shame and dishonor of race hatred. I grew to despise it because it threatened the happiness of you and you and you.”

Tough love, as a sufferer of combat related PTSD that has lasted 44 years and dropped my personal and professional life from grabbing the golden ring and falling to the bottom I applaud the Mayor of SFO and her team for the hard work.
Would selecting Josh Shapiro be Kamala Harris's Sister Souljah Moment?

The solution is simple and practical.
She needs to put a couple of polls in the field measuring how she does with Shapiro and without. One in Michigan, the other in Pennsylvania. She needs to measure how much damage he does to her in Michigan versus how much benefit he brings in Pennsylvania.
The challenge is that Shapiro is known in PA, but not in MI or other places around the country.
I'm certain there are snap polls and focus groups gathering data — but the choice is going to come down based on many factors, not simply the immediate electoral implications.
Apparently, Trump is suffering from delusions.
The later date (Sept. 29th) comes after his sentencing (Sept. 18th). Debating before he is sentenced is to his advantage.
One of my favorite political cartoonists. I can only image the flame mail he must get from his fellow Georgians.
So….
Leonard Leo says the SCOTUS reforms suggested by President Biden are an effort to delegitimize the court.
I call BULLSHIT!!
The court was delegitimized by Mitch McConnell when he fucked with the nomination of Merrick Garland. Period.
Haven’t five of the six conservative justices been appointed by Presidents who lost the popular vote, then largely confirmed by a Senate that disproportionality represents conservatives?
I don’t think these younguns’ who are going to fuel this blue tsunami give two schitts about what Leonard Leo thinks.
Clarence Thomas was appointed by GHW Bush41, who won 53.4% of the popular vote and 426 Electoral College votes. Both Roberts and Alito were GW Bush43 nominations AFTER he won re-election in 2094 with 50.7% of the popular vote. Trump, the popular vote loser, only appointed 3 — Gorsuch, Kavanaugh & Coney Bryant.
A convicted felon for fraud accepting a $10 million bribe from a foreign dictator? Shirley you jest!
NY Times catching up on WaPo's earlier scoop.
This kind of thing screwed over certain other politicians and it looks like that won't stop anytime soon.
Walz a high quality option, great communication skills, Master Sergeant National Guard veteran, high school teacher, congressman, governor elected in a red district he lives in, grew up farming I think, State winning HS football coach, and he coined WEIRD for MAGA lately.
Walz enlisted in the Army National Guard at the young age of 17, and retired 24 years later as Command Sergeant Major. Before retiring, Walz served overseas with his battalion in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Walz is the highest ranking enlisted soldier ever to serve in Congress.
I guess. As long as he isn't a childless cat dude.
I hope its Walz. He’s gotten positive national attention for a few years now as governor. His background is also impeccable. I’m impressed and that’s coming from someone who is somewhat of a party pooper.
Once again Jennifer Rubin offers invaluable perspective largely missing from today's pundits.
