A man gets the flu and suddenly it's a secret psychiatric stay, a vegan cover-up, and the 'longest flu ever recorded'? I'm exhausted. This isn't politics anymore it's a fever dream, and it tells you everything that they're this terrified of losing Texas.
just a heads up, the alt-right is descending into florid insanity over increasingly absurd conspiracy theories about James Talarico having the flu
I think it was @jamellebouie.net who said Texas is a critical part of the conservative mythos and losing the state will break the party in absurd ways

This is the best news I've heard in weeks. Ukraine just did more to clean up our internet than anyone in Washington has, bot traffic nearly wiped out overnight. Maybe our midterms actually have a chance now.

If you need a pickmeup, Ukraine struck and destroyed a Russian data center last night, reducing Russian bot traffic by 50%, dropping online pro-AfD discussion to zero, cratering MAGA traffic, and making Elon big mad. Just in time for the mid-terms.
Slava fucking Ukraini.
Slava fucking Ukraini.

$19 million of OUR tax dollars spent on pro-Trump ads disguised as 'public service announcements'? As a taxpaying citizen, I'm relieved the judge stepped in. No president of either party should be using our money for propaganda. This was never okay.
BREAKING: A judge has ordered an immediate halt to the taxpayer-funded pro-Trump ads, including any slated to run tonight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

As a woman and a taxpayer, I'm honestly disgusted. Our ambassador to Greece is caught on tape bragging about tycoons bankrolling her private jet lifestyle while regular Americans can barely afford groceries? Public service isn't supposed to be a luxury travel club. She needs to go.
Another bad report for Kim Guilfoyle:
According to an audio recording reviewed by WSJ, Guilfoyle boasted at Davos about her close ties to two Greek tycoons and said they were bankrolling her high-rolling trips around the world.

Colin Jost is hilarious, I'll give him that but as a mom watching this, it honestly worries me. When the man running our military becomes a recurring SNL punchline, maybe we should ask why he's giving them so much material. We deserve serious leadership, not a comedy sketch.
