That’s beside the point though.

Eh… Biden did the same thing several months ago and ran a Dark Brandon ad on their website during a Republican primary debate that they streamed.

The fact of the matter is they are a media outlet that tons of people watch for better or worse. And it’s not like they weren’t going to fill the airtime otherwise with some other advertisements.

Folding in some messaging for Harris-Walz doesn’t seem like a bad use of their campaign funds. Especially because the potential gains are so important. Undecided independents are super important, but removing folks from his base will help provide a mandate from the electorate.

Eh… it’s probably a rental if I had to guess. Look at the decal numbers on the front. They’re probably going to a rally, and they probably rented it b/c I imagine the walks from the car are brutal.

The shirts are abhorrent, but no sense in mocking someone who might need something like that for legitimate reasons. Make fun of them for being a moron and supporting the party that would make the medical care their daughter might one day need to survive illegal in all circumstances.

Was that pre ACA? When we had our kid, we only paid a $175 hospital stay copay. Granted… we’re very lucky with the insurance coverage provided by my employer, but we were under the understanding that the reason we didn’t have OBGYN copays and otherwise throughout the pregnancy was because the ACA made sure it was covered.

Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Not so many among us who take these words seriously anymore…

It’s just not the same…

Halo CE Hang ‘em High on the original Xbox with Rockets and Grenades (we didn’t specify… frags were game too) will always be one of my favorites.

That, and Sidewinder CTF. Those were some of the most intense hours of my young adulthood in college.

Thanks for sharing this right before bed… dickhead.

I’m not sure this kind of stupid can be quantized… I’m pretty sure it’s fundamentally continuous…

Maybe it’s an integrity thing? Maybe he felt like having a financial interest in different companies might bias him in an unethical way?

Legit… the idea that he’d ever be caught on camera standing in front of a sign that had anyone else’s name besides his own or his running mate’s is just brain dead branding.
