Between this and fixing McD ice cream machines, Kamala may have the strongest campaign finish ever.
(And a continued FU to Elon for ruining both twitter and owning a Tesla, both thing I used to enjoy)
BREAKING: Elon Musk says Kamala Harris will Shut down X and bring back Twitter if she wins the Election
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While Musk did say this, as shown in the video posted as a reply to this post, Harris has not made this claim. The claim that she did so is based on a misleading clip from a 2019 interview where she speaks on Donald Trump’s Twitter account.

Crab Rangoon Puff pastry from Blackhole Bakery on Troost in KC is ridiculously good @ZachIsHere, if you haven't tried it yet. I should have taken a picture before I devoured my half. My only regret is buying only one and telling my wife I would share.

Sure, this is better than the racist threats and slurs, but is it too much to ask for journalists to just not to suck so often.
We often get inquiries from people looking to contact someone who spoke at our convention. Sometimes they are awful. But sometimes, they are genuinely trying to get in touch with someone. I think this one contains both.
ALT Screenshot of an email for an interview request where they want to talk with a veteran Democrat strategist about "the Harris-Walz joint interview on CNN, in particular why she’s bringing her running mate to the interview, and her team’s overall strategy going forward." Names have been blanked out.

For the last 4 years my Fantasy football team has been "Dark Brandon's Revenge". They won the league last year, so it's time to retire at the top, like its namesake. Looking for a new name. "Hillbilly Couch Fuckers" has a nice ring to it.

I went over to the For You column, and I can’t believe that the Twitter algorithm actually recommended something worthwhile. Don’t know if this is true, but the story is amazing and can’t wait to see how it ends.
One of my farm workers is also now making free with the fire extinguisher and it's fair to say he's enjoying himself. Both Reg and Gary are now bathed in a light glow of powder. They are shouting at him about maritime law and the rights of freeman.
He doesn't speak English.

The @swingleft community, our key partners on the ground, and voters in OH and VA showed up *BIG* to defeat the GOP in 2023. If Republicans keep running on extremism, we'll keep working to make sure pro-reproductive freedom Democrats keep winning.
About last night: Abortion Cost Republicans Big at the Ballot Box — Again
This isn’t new. Dems have won big on the issue since Dobbs. But it proved, once again, voters are firmly against Republicans on abortion.

Hear Senator Peters, @SharlynDGrace @SafeandJustUSA & @SOULInChicago speak at a powerful webinar Tuesday, 6pm Central on how Illinois #EndMoneyBail! netroots.me/EndCashBail
After years of hard work, we have finally become the very first state in the nation to #EndMoneyBail. Earlier today, I attended a press conference to celebrate this historic day for all Illinoisans. No other state in the nation has implemented such comprehensive pretrial reform.
