One thing that’s nagged at me a little is the cost of this? All the illegality and grossness aside, this thing will end up costing more than $250mm. It’ll probably end up at $400mm and that’s basically the cost of a nice skyscraper? How does a ballroom cost that much?

unnecessary, overpriced, ugly, historically illiterate, and shoddily built - all words associated with everything trump has ever built
The National Trust for Historic Preservation warned that President Trump’s planned 90,000-square-foot ballroom would “overwhelm the White House itself,” which spans just 55,000 square feet. https://wapo.st/4hmL8rC

It's important to understand that Maine has an open primary and they're pivoting with the hope that some MAGA voters will cross over.

Vote blue no matter who is meant for the general election not the primary. The whole point is to use the primary to pick out the best "blue"
Primaries are there for a reason. I'm not interested in "vote Blue no matter who" especially as its given us people like Fetterman. Push to make Democratic candidates better or replace them.

And with that, I think its time to drop Platner.

"You got a tattoo of what?"

"It's like a pretzel dog thing. To cover the Nazi tattoo."

"That's not a pretzel dog, fucking Frankenstein, it means you support the IRA carbombing the shit out of the English."

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

it is structurally impossible for the democrats to win 60 senators before the republicans end american democracy
Angus King, Maine’s other Senator, changed his mind in 2022.

Also: how about we all spend our time, energy and money to elect 60 Dem senators rather than fight each other to the death over a single issue.

Heritage is coming for the pill.
The co-authors are both employed by that organization.
Here, they throw everything at hormonal contraception: it makes you depressed, makes you gain weight, makes you less attractive to men, and (without evidence) maybe it harms boys.

RFK Should Grill the Pill
Though the perceived benefits of birth control are loudly and publicly celebrated, its costs need to be fully exposed.
