The comment that was liked says to “vote her if not Trump”, it doesn’t say to vote “Trump if not her”.
A very important nuance. A more charitable explanation is that she is trying to get undecided voters. Which is exactly what a presidential candidate is supposed to do.
I agree with this take.
AI will definitely make some white collar jobs way more productive, and thus change the nature of that work and reduce the number of people employed in those jobs.
A good example is translation, where translators are now mostly reviewing translated texts instead of translating from scratch.
This means the ability to read fast and take on the role of editor is what remains important in the remaining jobs for translators.
Because they manage to attract investment.
As long as investors are willing to give cash in exchange for equity, a company can operate on that cash and run at a loss.
Not Bibi, but AIPAC and CUFI.
And also, the Democratic party itself is quite Zionist, with Blinken en Shapiro perhaps the most well known Zionists.
Democrats don’t want AIPAC and CUFI to support Trump. Wavering on Israel will actually rile up the evangelicals to turn out massively for Republicans.
The sad fact of the matter is that 75% of the American electorate will support Israel regardless of how many kids they kill.
And the remaining 25% are actually split between Republican and Democratic voters and don’t hold sway in either party.

I do find it interesting how much press it gets. Especially since Iran is quite capable of hiding their tracks better.
I think the goal of Iran was to get caught, so that if the election is close, one side will accuse the other of the election being stolen through help of Iran.
It might even be Russia or China framing Iran to be honest.
And I think the US is widely sharing this information to beat the war drums and have cause to attack Iran for election interference.
It’s also by design.
The flaws are designed to be exploited by the rich and powerful.
I really want to hear more about Cori Bush’s plan to take down AIPAC.
It’s time to do it.
No, he joined the national guard first.
They paid for his college education to become a teacher.
But Kamala really shut down those protesters!
Can’t we focus on Kamala instead of the gcide?
(Disclaimer: I do support Kamala. Lesser of two evils and all. But I hope Americans grow a conscience.)
He should have said almost every.
But thanks for pointing out the mathematical truth ☝️
Yeah, the smell is obnoxious. I’m not surprised at all. Seems like a “water is wet” finding.
Because he shows what our parents could be like.
He’s the parent we wish we had.
I don’t think you understand how politics and elections work.
If people on the flanks give their voting power to “Blue (or Red) no matter who”, you end up with the Clintons and Bushes of the world. Parties have no incentive to actually do anything for their flanks.
When people on the flanks leverage their voting power effectively, you get MAGA and Justice Democrats.
Anyway, hope you learned something today. Otherwise, hope you have a nice day.
Supporters of Bush and Bowman now face a strange incentive.
If they vote for Latimer and Bell, they will only embolden AIPAC and corporate America to use the same playbook in the districts of other progressive Democrats. And they will have them as incumbents in 2026.
If they do a protest vote (third party, write-in or stay home), that sends a clear message, but also gives the Republicans a +1.
On the face it, it would suck if the Republicans win their district, but also consider that a Republican win will (a) ensure Democrats field a progressive in 2026 and (b) show both Democrats and Republicans that the progressive vote is powerful and can be courted.
So it might actually be a good strategy. Look at 2016. Yeah, four years of Trump sucked, but it also made Democrats realize they had to court their progressive win. Corporate Hilary just couldn’t win without them.
Knowing this, there is also a Dark Brandon, scorched earth, move available: Vote directly for the Republican and give them a +2.
This will show progressives know how to yield their voting power and that they should be taken seriously as a group.
You have to look at the bigger picture, not the short term issue.
If progressives want to be taken seriously, and if Americans want AIPAC out of politics, then there have to be consequences.
If Latimer and Bell hold on to the seat, corporate and AIPAC Democrats only learn that they can take progressives for granted.
If they lose their seat, they learn that they need progressive support to win.
Yeah, two years of a republican rep will suck. But it’s only two years.
If the Democratic congressional candidate underperforms the Democratic presidential candidate, it definitely sends a signal.
Obviously, it only “sends a signal” if progressives say what they’re gonna do.
But it has a double whammy: Dems get a 2 vote difference when you switch.
Agreed, but also: if I were in their district (Bush or Bowman), I might even consider voting Republican out of spite.
Yes, AIPAC is to blame, but Democrats also need to grow a spine against AIPAC. They can’t just take progressive voters for granted.
Yep, all the electrical engineers who have chimed in say it looks more like explosives.
A battery would get hot and start a fire. It wouldn’t instantly explode like this.
