Jackass Despicable Vance roundup;
“In a December 2023 speech, JD Vance defended a notorious white nationalist convicted over 2016 election disinformation, canvassed the possibility of breaking up tech companies, attacked diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts and talked about a social media ‘censorship regime’ that ‘came from the deep state on some level’.”

Was CNN’s big Kamala Harris interview a dud?
Or have the Democrats become a party that runs against the mainstream news media?Erik Wemple (The Washington Post)
Consensus on the Momentous CNN Interview on my TL seems to be:
- Harris is not a leftist
- Harris is not a fool
- The press still kind of seem to be fools
- Trump never has faced and never will face anything like this kind of scrutiny from an interviewer, ever
I said here a couple days ago that the question wasn't why Trump staffers assaulted a staffer at Arlington Cemetery who got in their way. It was why the people who assaulted that staffer weren't arrested.
Well, now we know. The staffer in question -- who is a woman, because of course Trump's goons would assault a woman -- declined to press charges, out of fear of further harassment. And the Army, which manages Arlington, decided it was easier to hang her out to dry than it would be to stand up for one of their own people.
I don't blame the staffer. But the Army's decision is pathetic.

The Defend American Jobs crypto-focused super PAC has just poured more than $12 million into Republican Bernie Moreno's campaign against incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown in the Ohio Senate race.
This is the largest crypto PAC expenditure involving a single candidate so far.
“That’s not the time or place for it,” said Karen Meredith, a #VoteVets board member whose son, 1st Lt. Ken Ballard, is buried in the second row of #Section60. “They had to #bully themselves into this thing. The lack of #respect for the rules or the norms or the #laws at #Arlington — there’s just no respect.”

“If the [#Trump] #campaign feels the need to defend their team’s actions — which include #bullying & physically pushing out of the way [#assault] a longtime #PublicServant & member of the team at #Arlington working to protect the sanctity of the sacred spaces — then that’s on them,” one #Defense ofcl said. “The rules were made clear to participants, & these two chose to disregard those rules.

The incident has raised concerns about the #safety of #ArlingtonNationalCemetery staff members, the senior #Defense ofcl said, w/vitriol aimed at them initially on Monday by liberals, after the news coverage of #Trump at the #cemetery was published [really? I was immediately concerned for the staff & knew it was Trump et al being who they always are]. That has given way to language from #conservatives that also is “concerning.”

#Defense ofcls were concerned about the event Mon because #Republicans have frequently used the…[Afghanistan exit], as a #political cudgel. In advance of the event, #cemetery ofcls told #Trump’s team that he could come in his PERSONAL CAPACITY & bring PERSONAL aides, but NOT #campaign staff. Campaign advisers went anyway.
No hats, signs or banners were allowed, acc/to #military ofcls. No speeches.

He then falsely accused #Harris of criticizing Trump’s visit to the #cemetery, which she hasn’t commented on. A Harris campaign spox called it “pretty sad.”

This clip from Lincoln Project reminds me of the teenager who was receiving coupons for baby items, based on her shopping habits (“Target knew his daughter better than her father did,” from 2012).

A friend just gave me this wonderful analogy about elections:
“Elections aren’t an uber taking you to exactly where you want to go, they’re a train carrying a mass of people to the station nearest your destination.
You have to board the train that’s going in the same direction you want to go, even if it doesn’t take you to the street, or even the town you’re wanting to reach.”

The Speech the DNC Wouldn’t Allow on Stage

"What I’m about to read to you is, frankly, very sanitized. It was meant to have an opportunity to represent a Palestinian voice.
"We came here to offer a gift, an opportunity to bridge the gap between our party & our voters... so many people wearing their pins, their keffiyehs, their flags. It’s very unfortunate."
