You are way overthinkung things. Regardless, your assertion seems totally implausible.

Congratulations! Next round is on me. Do you want a Michael Collins?

Simplest with respect to what one would expect, given what we know (or I understand) about the current political reality, i.e. the most plausible.

Authorizes <> Allows. More likely, in this case, it means "mandates". Meaning, it authorizes that prayer that will occur will conform to Orthodox standards. I.e., it will allow prayer, provided that it meets Orthodox standards. (I don't have the text; I'm guilty of using Occam's Razor here.)

Don't EVER say surely! Nothing is certain. That type of thinking is why Donald Trump won twice!

Our republic is dead unless we have a long-term strategy to rebuild our institutions from the rubble DJT has reduced them to.

I've only seen mention on Bluesky of long-term strategy from Pete Buttigieg.

By having Scott Jennings on as one side of an ostensibly civil debate, CNN has enabled the likes of him to frame debate using MAGA strawman tactics, because the other side gives him more than his due respect.

Ok, I just read the link, and it's more scathing than the headline lead me to think it would be.

That's a pretty mild indictment, for lack of a better word. Howie should do better. Not surprised, given his employer and his willingness to leave his CNN gig on Reliable Sources for Fox.

You must viciously attack the character of Jack Shittarelli. NOW!

Wow. Quite a self-indightment of MAGA by one of their own! To be fair, it would be unfair to assume that ALL Maggots feel and "think" the way Logan does, but I think it's fair to say that much of the outrage from their camp is projection of the type exhibited by Logan Dobson, above.

Sadly, your opponent is killing you with his ads, and yours are not effective. You better answer them and kick the Shitarelli out of him. If your campaign managers are not telling you this, you should fire them.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

FCC Chair Carr’s post from 12/30/23: Free speech is the counterweight—it is the check on government control. That is why censorship is the authoritarian’s dream.

But a corporate entity is ultimately worthless if its brand is worthless, and their action is making their brand worthless. Yes, this all rests on the assumption that valuable customers value quality.

It really doesn't matter that much. Sure, it defeats a disgusting narrative the right is trying to push, but it's playing into their narrative that the worst of the "left" represents the whole. And we've got to stop subscribing to their narrative.

Nancy is nothing like those obsequeous flip floppers. She's a hard spinner, though very transparent to most of those smart enough to switch to Bluesky.

And South Park got it about right, unlike most talking heads. But they need to get this, and state this, and expose the faux civility of those celebrating him, very clearly, regardless of how un-PC it is.
