Okay look I'm only going to say this once, but: on this Biden is the rightest
And I am *absolutely* never saying this again, but: Steyer is right on this one.
Steyer showing up tonight, I'll give him that.
That question on North Korea was one of the dumbest questions I've ever heard, and Harris is awarded full points for not entertaining it.
The Afghanistan question is also a contender.
Booooooookkeerrrrrr
Fine I guess everyone is allowed to have a moment tonight, thank you Buttigieg.

Ambassador Sondland's testimony about the "no quid pro quo" call with President Trump can't be true. I wrote an article for @just_security that explains why: justsecurity.org/67536/heres-th…
But perhaps the most important question Sondland never had to answer isn't about the "no quid pro quo" call at all, but about his call(s) with Pres. Zelensky immediately thereafter.

In his testimony, Sondland claimed to have no memory at all about what he and Zelensky discussed.
But Sondland did tell Bill Taylor about his "multiple convos" with Trump and Zelensky on Sept 7-8.

And according Taylor, Sondland's conversations with Zelensky ended with Zelensky agreeing to do the exact thing Trump had demanded Zelensky do on the "no quid pro quo" call.

Last night, we ended up watching Nailed It on Netflix, and after seeing some of the contestants make cakes that were, objectively speaking, so terrible they can't even be called cakes, I contemptuously announced: "I could totally do better than that."
Relevant context: I hate cooking, I don't bake, anything more complicated than frozen pizza is too complicated for me. My one and only attempt to bake cookies ended like this: instagram.com/p/Bz6D0fepsf8/…
So @XieWilliams called me on my shit, and told me to prove it.

I said I'd make a Baby Yoda cake and prove to him how easy it is. Then I thought about Baby Yoda's ears and wrinkles, and we settled on a Mandalorian instead. It's basically a tin can, how hard can it be?

An alternative hypothesis: real Conan, a female dog, died tragically from her injuries, but in order to avoid having the raid overshadowed by the bad PR of a dead dog, the White House brought in an impostor Conan, a male dog, for photo ops.
Because we're not allowed to have fun things anymore, I feel compelled to wave the sarcasm flag for this tweet.

(But also even though the feds can't get their shit together in responding to reporters, Conan is definitely a boy dog. This isn't rocket science, people.)
Thank you @ashleyfeinberg for sparing me from having to provide the MS Paint proof on this one.

Critically important here is that #Biden demanded an apology from #Booker and his wife said on a TV special orchestrated by Biden that "America didn't buy it" about #Harris saying exactly this. Biden's team called Harris "slippery and slick." "Jungle" is such a dog whistle, too.
Why on Earth would you want to promote a candidate with questionable history on race when that is a key issue with Trump? No one is claiming #Biden = Trump, but anyone can hear the debate question right now. And this gives cover for racist white voters.
Biden has consistently asserted "everyone" knows he was in the forefront on Civil Rights, but in fact, no one knows that. There are numerous videos of Biden saying things most would consider questionable at best. Democrats need the strongest candidate, not the most vulnerable.

What a total reframing of what actually happened to try to damage @KamalaHarris.
#Biden raised the issue of segregation.
#Booker---WHO IS BLACK---asked for an apology.
Biden doubled down and claimed Booker should apologize to him.

This went on over a week before the debate as #Biden's history was revealed by journalists like me.
In the debates Biden lost badly to #Harris when he couldn't address his own record.
Biden's numbers plummeted, Harris's rose.
Then Biden went on CNN to attack Harris.
2/
Chris Cuomo gave #Biden TWO WHOLE SHOWS to attack #Harris with no pushback. Biden claimed he was "blindsided" by Harris, who commented on the issue Biden raised 10days earlier.
Biden revealed all his terrible policy ideas he never talks about & also attacked progressive WOC.

THREAD 📌📌📌

So @JoeBiden has derailed the primary to be all about him because he is plummeting in the polls. He is claiming @KamalaHarris blindsided him about an issue he raised and which @CoryBooker, @ewarren and Harris had all called him out on a week before the debate.
1/
#Biden took to TV for a special one-on-one interview of the sort Trump got regularly in 2016, but which @HillaryClinton did not. In that @ChrisCuomo interview Biden claimed he was a victim, demonized both #Harris and @AOC, and got no hard questions about his record from Cuomo.
2/
#Biden claimed the debates were all about the past, which they were not, and revealed that he is against every major initiative Americans overwhelmingly want, like #M4A. Biden failed the debate so he took a re-test with the MSM & also misrepresented Harris and ignored Booker.

Response to #Biden skipping the California Dems is scathing.

Biden's "refusal to show up only reinforces the idea that he’s an elitist and he is more interested in collecting big checks in CA than being in genuine touch with grassroots activists."

#Buttigieg and #Warren took Biden on.
Buttigieg said that "the riskiest thing we could do is try to play it safe.... In these times, Democrats can no more promise to take us back to the 2000s or 1990s than conservatives can take us back to the 1950s.”

usatoday.com/story/news/pol… …
#Warren: “Some Democrats in Washington believe the only changes we can get are tweaks & nudges.If they dream at all, they dream small.Some say if we’d all just calm down, Republicans will come to their senses. Our country is in a time of crisis. The time for small ideas is over.”

Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15
