As a CENTCOM operations staff officer I have to review all these ideas coming in to defeat Iran and more then half are about sending themselves in "CoD" style and seducing their leaders.
the ragnarok lobster guy deleted all his posts about how haley stevens was gonna win. that’s how cold politics is. ragnarok lobster is abandoning you before the polls even close
Harris fans quoted me with this and I can't figure wtf it means. Releasing the Epstien files was bad? It's similar to campaigning with Liz Cheney?

The Halfway Post@halfwaypost.bsky.social · 2d agoBREAKING: A brand new “Christian men’s gym” in Georgia that bans women so pious men can have “lust-free workouts” lasted just 6 days before three men were caught “violating Leviticus in the locker room.”

Secretary of Defense Rock@sodrock.bsky.social · 2d agoStill wild to me we’re literally fighting a war entirely outside of trading hours

"Oh you called the pro-genocide group he's taking money from AIPAC? Damn I guess you're a racist."
I don't know. I think once pro-Israel groups start donating to you, and you accept that, you open yourself up to this, regardless of who you are. AIPAC does not endorse Moss, though DMFI does, so it's a close call.

Lol no they were definitely not free and fair elections, especially anything before the VRA of 1965.

Not really, Dachau was opened just 51 days after Hitler was made chancellor to put communist and other dissidents in. This thing dosen't even mention communists.

Their plan is to say as little as possible and win by default, which in their mind is the safest path that doesn't alienate anyone. This misses the opportunity to galvanize the public around important issues, and then they throw up their hands about how the voters are ignorant and apathetic
Don Moynihan@donmoyn.bsky.social · last wk.I do find it amazing that even in this moment, the Dems can't come up with some sort of "Contract for America" like language that offers an alternative to Trump. Maybe they have it, but whatever governing vision they have is lost in the noise.
