Jay Willis@jaywillis.net · 2h ago"Off the record" is an agreement between a journalist and a source, and the agreement must take place BEFORE the disclosure of "off the record" information. You can't unilaterally assert it, and it isn't retroactive. You also definitely can't assert it once you, uh, post it on YouTube.
If Stevens won they would not print that moderates didn’t get the big election night they wanted, they would print that moderates have struck back and reasserted their place leading the party

wait are they defining "winning" as "nobody disagreeing with you or saying anything mean about you"
The Athletic@theathletic.com · 9h agoAaron Rodgers spoke out about Dr. Anthony Fauci. Sophie Cunningham spoke out about transgender athletes. Caitlin Clark chose not to weigh in. Three different approaches, one common result: criticism. Steve Buckley on how athletes can't win on social media: nyti.ms/3Sa9A7D
El-Sayed on Islamophobia: "That's the only play they got. They're gonna point at me, they're gonna point at my name, like, 'Wow, he's different.' That's the best you got? You can't actually talk about what you want to do? My name is not raising your gas prices. My name is now taking us to war."
IT’S OFFICIAL. A Sunrise Movement co-founder is the Democratic nominee for Congress in MI-07. Huge congratulations to @wewill2026.bsky.social on his victory!
i know votes are still being counted but the more i look at this michigan senate map the more it becomes clear that it kind of looks like a mitten
if nothing else another big night for the "polling in the no-one-picks-up-their-phone-anymore Era is cooked" take
G Elliott Morris@gelliottmorris.com · 18h agoLooks like a 10-15 point polling miss in Michigan regardless of who wins. And people have been writing a lot of electability takes using this data. It’s dangerous out there folks be safe
Gotta feel for Dylan Smith, who has been walked off in four ballparks this year (Colorado, Seattle, San Diego, now Texas). This one wasn't all on him. Jung Hoo Lee got turned around and couldn't catch Ezequiel Duran's two-out, game-winning single.
civicAPI can now project that William Lawrence will be the Democratic nominee for Michigan US House 7. He will face Republican incumbent Tom Barrett in November.
Always going to remember “The Wrong Basabe” which is unfortunate for Osleivis bc this is fun.
but then u would have to make the consummé dipping bowls bigg…ohhh

Man...the racism of the people who hate El-Sayed is on another level
We've spent so much effort, for so long, to get this. And they lit so much money on fire. Imagine how much community organizing $60 million could have gotten in Michigan. But organized community wasn't the goal.
April Glick Pulito@aprilglick.bsky.social · 20h agoEl-Sayed numbers truly INSANE this is a movement
Republican power grabs in Kansas and Missouri are going down in flames with 18-25% of votes reported so far. Missouri's Amendment 4 aimed to make citizen-initiated constitutional amendments practically impossible. Kansas' Amendment 1 was designed to flip the state Supreme Court to ban abortion
If she’s on track to lose a primary by 20 points in what universe would she win the general?

honestly can't stress enough, as a former family law attorney, how depressingly common Max Miller's behavior and words are, right down to the petty fixation on custody procedure and rules when faced with allegations of shocking violence.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 24h agoRep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
sorry gonna start saying "log into a portal" as a euphemism for pooping now because that technically is what you do
weeder@weeder.bsky.social · yesterdayStop saying "log into a portal." Sounds way too cool for what's happening.
The Fae: so we’re going to take you away from here and— Me: I accept! The Fae: and you won’t remember anything and you will not return for a century— Me: I ACCEPT HARDER
Fae: “Tell us your true name.” Me: “…Just my name? No birthdate, no SSN, no fingerprint scan, no address, no mother’s maiden name? Are you sure you’ve even got the right Olivia Waite? There’s like six.” Fae: “What the hell kind of bargains have you been making?” Me: “They call it health insurance.”
