Once I built a railroad, now it’s gone

I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

Donate to the candidates on the front lines of the fight against MAGA gerrymandering

These are anti-MAGA state candidates in *extremely* close races

This is more of the same lawlessness we’ve seen elsewhere around the country. 

Our country deserves accountability. Our country deserves the humane treatment of every person here. In fact, our Constitution demands this. 3/4

Here’s a video from the same podcast as linked in my previous post where you can hear the audio too. I love this because it really lays bare how LLMs fool us - but really they’re just slotting words into linguistic patterns that we’re familiar with. Genres like a podcast or LinkedIn post.

Ok there's a lot of incorrect information going around on this, so I want to be clear that the problem with the Big 3 and EV's isn't that the Big 3 didn't want to make EV's.

So these people have just decided that “ballroom” and “bunker“ are equivalent terms, although the White House has had underground ballroom-free facilities since FDR … and maybe advertising that the PEOC is no longer operational every single day on the news is stupid?

Emmer: "I don't understand the objection to the ballroom. Certainly, putting it in the White House which is the most secure place perhaps in the world is going to be an improvement."

The good news is, there are a lot of experienced, trained professionals on hand who can quickly gather all the appropriate facts and tell us exactly how this is bad news for the Democrats in the midterms.
