This gave me a chuckle.
In all seriousness, I am so over the unnamed sources and random Democrats bs.

I’m trying really hard to stay optimistic, but it’s hard to see how the Ds aren’t going to hand the election to Trump through all this idiotic handwringing. They’re acting like we didn’t just have a primary process, or like it was years ago and not earlier this year. Biden being old is not brand new information.
The NYT had an article about the rise in Chinese and Russian bots advancing the narrative that Biden is too old. Another journalist friend of mine with a reliable source said they’ve tracked a 200% increase over multiple platforms of Chinese, Russian, and Iranian bot accounts elevating the message of having him pull out of the race. The Ds are playing right into their hands.

I honestly don’t know if Biden is the right person to beat him; I’m not excited about him. But there literally is not a viable alternative at *this* stage of the game.

At the grocery store yesterday, I overheard one employee telling another employee about Proj.ect 2025. I listened for a minute, because I am in a liberal city in Missouri, so her response could have gone either way. But I was so relieved when she complimented AOC and thanked him for explaining Pro.ject 2025 and she and I chatted about how terrifying it is. She said she hadn’t heard of it before, and she was glad he brought it up. She said she was happy for her IUD but she was still scared.
So even in the middle of the country, at least the word is getting out. Dems need to push this and inform people who aren’t paying close attention.

She saw it on TikTok so I’m really hoping it’s going to get in front of young voters

My company's headquartered in Canada and my teenagers keep telling me they're totally okay with us moving to Winnipeg if Tr.ump wins. angelashly, they also first learned about Pro.ject 2025 on TikTok a few months ago and asked me about it. And they said their friends are talking about it too. The one consistent thing I've heard from my kids/their friends is that the boomers need to step aside and let younger people take over, and that they're looking forward to when they are old enough to vote. Hopefully this passion continues as they age!

Missed this earlier in amongst the other rulings. How embarrassing. This feels like political satire at this point. Like, I would be laughing if this was a movie or book. Instead, this is real life. 😭

This is so dumb. She canceled her other plans to spend the 4th at the WH. She has been nothing but supportive of him

Did they get together and have a conference call? Or were they handed specific notes from their corporate overlords? It's all very Sinclair of them. 😒
