It’s a sadness, but I also have occasional issues with Firefox. It’s still the best browser by far, but its share is so small, more and more developers aren’t testing their pages in Firefox any more.

Doesn’t make no never mind to me. If a page doesn’t work in Firefox, I can do without.

Won’t someone please think of the Nazis?

Agreed 105%, plus it’s also just plain stupid. Nobody within half a mile of Trump’s inner circle has any real competence, so the idea that any/all of them could successfully pull off a faked assassination is probably more absurd than flat earthers telling us the moon landing was rigged.

I’m not from Minnesota and know nothing about Don Samuels or this primary, but anyone who’d run against Ilhan Omar is probably a garbage human.

Me too. Happy as heck to have been wrong.

Politically, in our racist and sexist country, the VP probably has to be a white man. If it’s not, the ticket loses a few percent of the vote.

Biden then said, “And what happened was, Barack said to me, ‘Go to Detroit, and help fix it.’" This is way too deep in the nettles for me to remember or even google; do you have any idea whether that trip to Detroit was about the pandemic, or (like TBD seems to think) about the recession?

Do they not teach government and civics in schools any more?

No, they do not. In most American school districts, civics classes are no longer part of the curriculum.

OMG, man, until you made me look closer I thought it was three photos of the same guy.

Are we supposed to believe the US hasn’t already been sharing intel with Israel, like, since 1948?

They know it.

Sneering is rude, and I try to be polite. But those voters, those souls are lost and cannot be reached. Our survival depends on getting sane voters to vote.

Welcome to the new Newsweek. It’s shit so consistently, I no longer click.

Much more likely explanation: He was lying when he made the ‘pledge’.

Champagne by the bottle.

This is news of important to Ms Shanahan’s family, but not the rest of us.

Six points for ‘tacticool’. :)

This is the first smart move I’ve seen from the Biden campaign. It’ll certainly signal clearly which party might give a damn about women’s rights. On the downside, of course, the clinic Harris visits will undoubtedly be firebombed soon.

Sweet jeebers, is Biden really dumb enough to use the State of the Union Address — biggest Presidential bully pulpit in an election year — to complain about shrinkflation?
