Yes, despite what the ignorant haters want to say, Biden was not supposed to endorse Harris that first day. In fact, many around the VP didn't want him to endorse out of concern that it was going to hurt her "she's earning the nomination" narrative. After I broke the story, Biden came under enormous pressure to endorse the day he dropped out, and he succumbed to that, deeply setting back the efforts of those who wanted Biden out and someone besides Harris to be the nominee. So when I reported that Biden was getting out and NOT endorsing, it was accurate. Journalists never like their reporting to impact events but, in this case, mine did. And haters gonna hate hate hate.
It appears @MarkHalperin original reporting was right. Pelosi's plan was for an open primary, but Biden stuck it to the establishment who threw him out by endorsing Kamala 30 minutes after dropping out. This is why Obamaworld, Schumer etc were so late to endorse.. they didn't want her.

Confirmation of my story / footage thanks to Bender! Very happy with this man. Watch the video. youtu.be/ySHIOYyJ95A Maccabi supporters were agressive and attacked the Amsterdam citizens in front of Central Station. I will sue you @EYakoby if you don’t delete your post of my footage. @EenVandaag jullie krijgen een factuur. @MinPres Major Femke Halsema @AmsterdamNL : violence works both ways. Maccabi supporters should not have been invited. Thanks for listening and the interviews @SkyNews @LBC @RTLnieuws @5_News

Look, folks can say "join an org" but let's be honest that many orgs recently backed a genocidal political party -and- LOST. So it's ok to be discerning about who you trust & whose 'strategic' 'pragmatic' 'realistic' advice you follow.

I was just saying the same thing. Yet the media here and world leaders are saying there’s no place for antisemitism.There isn’t but there’s no place for Islamophobia either, especially during a minutes silence for the Valencia victims but apparently that doesn’t deserve a mention

This automatic justification of vicious behaviour if exhibited by an Israeli because they’re Israeli - is wearing incredibly thin. The genocide in Gaza is a “dark moment in history”. What they said was despicable. Isn’t it more a case of fuck around find out?

Sorry but if Israeli fans in Amsterdam were shouting “fuck Arabs”, racist chants, praising the IDF and shouting “fuck Palestine” that’s intense provocation and not automatic antisemitism like news headlines are claiming. The response was violent yes, but a reaction to hate speech

A lot of already very rich people got even richer thanks to everyone who thought media moguls, celebrities,consultants & influencers were the best use of campaign money. Congratulations, now they're selling your data & email to marketers to make up the gap.
Just so we're all clear: This is where those millions of campaign funds are going. On Beyoncé. On Gaga. On Taylor Swift. On Celebrity video promos. On pagantry, ad buys & song rights. Not doing a damn thing for any actually worthy cause. "It's a big club & you ain't in it."

Because the economy wasn't working for them given the current state of the economy, and all she offered was a continuation of that. You can spend a zillion dollars repeating a message that doesn’t land if people don’t believe you.
I wish someone would explain why $225 million in ads all about the economy, costs, the billionaire class, the difficulties of manual labor, etc didn't land with working class voters

Centre County, PA’s election office was evacuated due to a bomb threat. statecollege.com/articles/lo… It also experienced a software error that prevented the scanning of thousands of mail ballots. The error was reported after @Spoonamore pointed out that the county vote totals were historically low. 1/ newsbreak.com/news/366423812…

This scenario reflects a critical need for enhanced security measures in election systems, thorough investigations into past breaches, and possibly legal actions to safeguard future elections. It also raises questions about the transparency and accountability of election management, which are pivotal for maintaining democratic integrity.

ATLANTA (AP) The letter sent by nearly two dozen computer scientists, election security experts and voter advocacy organizations asks for a federal probe and a risk assessment of voting machines used throughout the country, saying the software breaches have "urgent implications for the 2024 election and beyond." The breaches affected voting equipment made by two companies that together count over 70 percent of the votes cast across the country, according to the letter. #PBS
