    The last time all of this happened, gave us some sad excuse about the approval process. Their reps were tweeting, texting and messaging me that it was a simple mistake, but here we are again. Hours wasted. Delayed responses. Different standards for Trump.

    It gets worse. After explicitly telling us we would not get pre-approval for ads that say “Election Day is today,” approved this ad from the Trump campaign.

    Given Supreme Court rulings on mail ballots and Trump's effort to undermine the Postal Service, I strongly suggest that you now vote in person - try early voting or find a drop box. Protect your health but don’t let anyone deprive you of your most precious right. Have a plan.

    I think a lot of people really overestimate the intelligence of their friends who support Trump.

    I think a lot of people really underestimate the degree to which some very smart people speak privately about supporting Trump.

    Has anyone checked in with Amy Chua or Akhil Reed Amar to get their reactions to Brett Kavanaugh’s error-filled assault on democracy? I would genuinely be interested in reading the reactions of legal scholars who previously claimed Kavanaugh to be brilliant.

    The judge in question previously worked for a Republican governor, started his law school’s chapter of the Federalist Society, and is the chair of the board of advisors of the Michigan chapter of the Federalist Society.

    Do it.

    Trump won Pennsylvania by just 44,292. Chip in to help run a digital ad that can mobilize voters in 10 counties Biden needs to turn out. It could make the difference in turning out the last few votes we need.

    Can’t relax now — we gotta vote & work like hell to bring this home. But there has not been a massive polling error affecting nearly every pollster for the last year, and pretending that’s a live possibility helps Trump’s efforts to steal the election.

    We must be ready for anything - massive polling error - an event changing things this week, or bad shit they do to prevent a full count. But right now we are winning and they want to reduce turnout by tricking us into believing they control everything. This is in our hands. VOTE!

    Please stop suggesting that Democrats put older or moderate people on the Supreme Court just because that person would annoy Republicans. We need to put a bunch of 40-year-old staunch progressives on the bench. Let’s think tactically, long term. Own the cons for decades not days.

    Agreed, . They have stolen two Supreme Court seats, and we must respond. Expand the court.

    Expand the court.

    Peyton Manning delegitimized the NFL by flipping the results of 43 football games in the fourth quarter, robbing opposing teams of wins they rightfully accomplished by leading before all the points were counted.

    Michael Jordan illegitimately flips the result of a basketball game rightfully won by the Cleveland Cavaliers, who had the most points in the game before all the points were counted.

    Is the rightful winner of this baseball game: 1. The Giants, because they scored the most runs. or 2. The Dodgers, because they had more runs before all the runs were counted.

    Anyway: it’s awful that Brett Kavanaugh is out here writing opinions riddled with factual errors that would get him a D- in 10th grade civics. People should be outraged. But not surprised. He’s a partisan hack and we’ve never had any real reason to think he’s particularly bright.

    Ayanna Pressley definitely knows what she’s talking about far more consistently than Paul Ryan, but she doesn’t get the “omg brilliant policy wonk” treatment by the mainstream media. 🤔🤔🤔

    It’s worth noting that the vast majority of these conservative “intellectuals,” like the decision-makers in the news media who helped brand them as such, are white guys. Meanwhile, they called Sonia Sotomayor dumb.

    And a lot of journalists were active participants in this, both because they got suckered by dumb arguments and because praising the intelligence/seriousness of this right-wing faux intellectuals was a easy way to demonstrate their own seriousness and “objectivity”

    Something that isn’t properly understood (particularly among journalists) is that The Right spent hundreds of millions of dollars and decades creating a facade of intellectualism and a key part of that was marketing nitwit partisans as “brilliant..”

    The sloppy, slap dash way these passages from Kavanaugh read is really the reason it's so unsettling/sobering. The law or quality of arguments won't really matter much in the end with this stuff.
