Two lines jumped out: "The vote cut against her well-cultivated reputation as a moderate Republican" Yeah, false rep abetted by too many in media "in the years since, she has appeared to hold grudges against people who criticized her vote" Yep. Vindictive and ruthless and why media coddles her

NEW: Q: "The life issue is just, like, my voting issue...If you could clone Justice Kavanaugh, would you do it?" Susan Collins: "I would vote for him again, yes, if that's what you're asking." #MEpolitics

"The White House’s new policies, however, suggest a willingness to expose Medicare enrollees to greater financial and administrative burdens in the name of fiscal restraint. In a critical election year, the Trump administration appears intent on testing whether this third rail still shocks."

On Tuesday, the Trump Admin announced they were ending the Medicare Part D subsidy program. Touching the third rail of politics is a heckuva strategy going into midterms (part D open enrollment starts 10/15). My latest analysis for @msnowreports.bsky.social. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

“Social media exploded with comments, pointing out that Moreno got more fired up about Fauci than he’s certainly been about the allegations from his own daughter, Emily Moreno, who has accused her ex-husband, Ohio MAGA Rep. Max Miller, of physical abuse of her and their daughter.”

“And now we learn Miller threatened to reveal something about Moreno—in a text to him—that would allow people to ‘get to know you better than your wife does’ after Emily Moreno accused Miller, per court filings, of abuse against her and their daughter. You can read it all here. www.signorile.com

“‘On Thursday evening, two days after the AP first asked Moreno’s campaign about the account, the candidate’s lawyer said a former intern created the account as a prank.’” It was ludicrous for various reasons I go into in the piece but nonetheless seemed to tamp down the story.

Good Thursday morning Blue Friends 65° here to start my day, the full moon was still out. A bit cooler here today low 80’s. Have a great day everyone 😊☕️💙

Agreed. On Monday @polphilpod.bsky.social and I explicitly tied Musk USAID cuts to his "belief" that white civilization is embattled and white nations must be saved from invasion to preserve the "West." We argued Musk's "zero died" claim is code to global far right: newrepublic.com/article/2135...

Agree with @jamellebouie.net that it's pretty clear Elon Musk wanted to eviscerate USAID *for the purpose of killing as many African people as possible.* Mass death wasn't an accidental byproduct of his "deep state" paranoia; it was a key mission of DOGE. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

One might even see his destruction of the United States Agency for International Development — responsible, so far, for an estimated 700,000 deaths worldwide — as consistent with his concern with falling white birthrates relative to those in places such as sub-Saharan Africa, where U.S.A.I.D. was active. After all, one way to secure a future for Western children, in this zero-sum view of the world, would be to starve African ones.
