Why the Houston Chronicle makes endorsements: "Newspapers don’t endorse candidates. Editorial boards do. The editorial board is separate from the newsroom...We do it as a service to our readers and to our democracy, which cannot flourish without an informed citizenry."
The editorial board of the Houston Chronicle isn't afraid to endorse Kamala Harris for president.

Waltz: "Donald Trump's got this big rally going at Madison Square Garden. There's a direct parallel to a big rally that happened in the mid 1930s at Madison Square Garden. And don't think that he doesn't know for one second exactly what they're doing there."
Let’s see if any upright hackers leak the names of the people in the seats (especially the suites, lounges, and mirror glassed pavilions).
Damn right

Van Jones should know 'why'. Spoiler:she's female and dark skinned.

"The Real #Trump Problem: Cognitive Decline?
Donald Trump, [is] showing potential signs of cognitive decline, may not be able to perform the duties of the presidency for a full term. We believe he should release his medical records, as Vice President Harris has done, to provide transparency about his health."

The Real Donald Trump Problem: Cognitive Decline?
As physicians, we are deeply concerned that Donald Trump, showing potential signs of cognitive decline, may not be able to perform the duties of the presidency for a full term.The National Interest
A Hawaii man who attended a school where #Walz taught — but says they never met — was dismayed to see person in a video using his name to make a false allegation against the VP candidate

Tim Walz doesn’t fit the profile of the stereotypical member of the Democratic Party.
Conservatives have tried to paint him as someone whose progressive politics challenge the culture of rural American life, but the truth seems far from that. Instead, like Minnesota’s Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party and some of the rural activists it produced, Walz is trying to uncouple small-town politics from the politics of fear and cultural isolation.

Who is Tim Walz? Understanding the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party can help make sense of the VP candidate
Walz, who is set to debate JD Vance on Oct. 1, comes from a particular kind of progressive politics in the Midwest, united under the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party.The Conversation
“#Jan6 was not Facebook ads,” #TimWalz shot back, as #JDVance smiled slightly.
#Walz had a question for his counterpart.
“He is still saying he didn’t lose the election,” Walz said of #Trump, turning grandly to #Vance. “Did he lose the 2020 election?”
“Tim,” Vance replied, “I’m focused on the future.” He swerved to a point about Covid & censorship.
“That,” Walz said, “is a damning non-answer.”

#JDVance pivoted jarringly to the subject of censorship. #TimWalz glanced up at the camera, silent, like a television character breaking the fourth wall.
“Well, I’ve enjoyed tonight’s debate,” #Walz began when it was his turn again, assessing an evening that was sometimes wobbly for him. He was about to enjoy it more.

…#TimWalz’s performance was not disastrous. Far from it. He seems to have come off just fine to viewers, per CBS’s post-debate poll, & he had several good moments. For instance, it was smart of him to ask #JDVance directly whether #Biden won the 2020 election, & to call Vance’s dodge a “damning non-answer.”
It was not exactly a masterful showing, though. #Walz seemed uncomfortable in the format compared to the smooth-talking #Vance, …& he often missed opportunities to call out Vance’s #lies….
What it means to be a man has become a dominant theme this #Election2024.
Although Vance and Walz have each presented themselves as typical “Midwestern guys,” they differ on what that means – and have competing views of women’s and men’s autonomy.

‘America’s dad’ vs. the ‘manosphere’: Walz-Vance debate highlights two versions of masculinity
Masculinity has become a dominant theme in the race for the White House. In their debate, VP candidates JD Vance and Tim Walz showed just how much they differ on what that means.The Conversation
I couldn't stomach watching that pathetic excuse for a (hu)man debating #Walz tonight, so I donated to #MastodonForHarris in the hopes that after the election, I never have to see him again Join me: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris
