I'm not clear as to why it was necessary to tackle Parscale when he wasn't resisting and was following the commands of another officer.
I get that a lot of people on this website don't like Brad Parscale but police misconduct is police misconduct and no American should be subject to violence by the police ... that certainly appears to be the case in this video
If you’re response to this video is to rationalize police misconduct because Parscale:
- is white
- is tall
- was accused of DV
- worked for Trump
- wasn’t treated worse
You’re being a hypocrite
It’s a helluva thing to watch progressives twist themselves in knots in my TL to defend overzealous and violent police because they don’t like the person being arrested. Very healthy stuff

I honestly have no idea what this means …
I have even less idea what this means, but as best I can surmise a lot of political pundits have convinced themselves that a) policy matters (it generally doesn’t) and b) if they say “expand the map” enough times it’ll magically solve the Democratic Party’s problems
These arguments about how Dems can allegedly win in states where they haven’t been competitive for more than a decade - and where Trump has repeatedly won by double digits - are divorced from reality.

One of the strange things about the argument made by @ezraklein, @AJentleson, @mattyglesias, and others that Dems need to moderate their policies and expand the Senate map is that it oddly ignores how remarkably successful Dems are in winning statewide races in swing states 🧵
Swing states offer a test case for how successful the two parties are in places where a) they aren't swimming against the tide of partisanship & b) there is a closely divided electorate. Also, it tells us how effective the two parties are at winning over the political center
And the Democratic track record in swing states is remarkably solid. In the seven swing states, Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and North Carolina, Democrats control 10 of 14 Senate seats (70 percent).

For Truth & Consequences, I did a deep dive on @Catalist_US's 2024 exit poll data, and the results are surprising.

One of Catalist's major data points, that Harris did well among consistent, highly engaged voters, is very good news for Democrats' near-term political prospects.
Highly engaged and consistent voters are more likely to vote in non-presidential elections, and Harris's strong performance with this cohort suggests Democrats could do very well in the 2026 midterms.
We've already seen strong Democratic overperformance in special elections this year, which is consistent with Democrats' advantage with highly engaged voters.

Just to underscore the audaciousness of this grift - the “Trump Bible” is 20 TIMES more expensive than other bibles available online AND Oklahoma is requesting 55,000 bibles, which is nearly 30 percent more than the number of classroom teachers in the state
There's another amazingly corrupt element to this grift. Most Oklahoma school districts have said they don't intend to request bibles because state academic standards don't require their use ... so most of these bibles won't ever show up in a classroom oklahoman.com/story/news/edu…
The Oklahoma Supreme Court has said schools maintain control over curricula and don't have to use the bibles. Superintendent Walter has no authority to force them to do so.

Lots of people are analogizing Biden’s withdrawal to LBJ’s withdrawal in 1968 … they are very, very different situations. 🧵
When LBJ announced his departure from the race on March 31, 1968 no one saw it coming. There’d been virtually no speculation that LBJ might drop out and only a handful of people knew his plans before he announced them. There were no trial balloons.
Americans were stunned. Even though LBJ had barely won the NH primary over Gene McCarthy and RFK had entered the race about 2 weeks earlier, the reigning assumption in DC was that LBJ would run and be the Democratic nominee in November

Just a quick lesson in media literacy & what I suspect is the WH's near-term strategy.

I always counsel people to pay less attention to a leak's content and instead ask why/who leaked a story.

Here's why I assume this leak was engineered by the WH🧵
cnn.com/2024/07/03/pol…
CNN says Biden "has privately acknowledged that the next stretch of days are critical to whether he can save his reelection bid for president."

Why would the WH leak a story that feeds the narrative that Biden might drop out?
Because the WH is under enormous pressure, particularly from Capitol Hill, to "do something" to respond to Thursday's debate. They are getting slammed for being tone-deaf and gaslighting Congress about Biden's predicament.
