These guys do tend to lose. It’s why I’d sorta slightly lean toward Hamilton as incredible as that would’ve sounded to 3 months ago me (even as I touted Kansas as a sleeper race).
This guy may still win his race but he’s a great example of a guy everyone THINKS is safe just because no one has ever taken a real run at him before, and when someone does, man, it turns out he’s actually quite vulnerable just because he’s not very good at politics!

More than 350,000 people voted for Abbott and Beto O’Rourke in 2018. Sorry I'm trying to only do this tweet once a week
This is like the craziest thing I’ve ever seen Everyone turned out to vote for Abbott but they left it blank for Paxton or voted for Talarico? That is not how most voting humans operate

The release of Dune 2 was so pure… an entire timeline of people basking in the quality of a film, sharing their love of a piece of art. It is hilariously unfortunate that we are forced to experience dune 3 alongside people treating this event like shareholders.
‘AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY’ is expected to gross more than ‘DUNE: PART 3’ during their opening weekend by a ratio of 3.2x-4x to 1. (via @EmpireCityBO)

I looked at the study and—ehh. 1/3 of participants dropped out of the study, there is probably some attrition bias, e.g., parents who stayed in the study might be more conscientious/higher IQ than those who dropped out, which gets in the way of the RCT’s usefulness. Of the two primary outcomes the researchers were measuring—withdrawal and attention span—they only found a difference (decrease) in withdrawal, and that was based on parent-reported behavioral surveys, which are also biased. IQ, which ofc is what everyone is commenting on, was a secondary outcome. IDK. I think eating eggs (and most whole foods, in moderation) is lindy and probably good for you, I just roll my eyes at constantly changing health trends based on studies like this one that seem to overstate their findings.
JUST IN: Children whose mothers took choline supplements during pregnancy scored +8 IQ points higher at age 4 than those in a placebo group, major new study finds.

Within five days of being deported from the U.S., Moussa Diawara says Ghanaian officials forced him onto a flight to Mali, the very country a U.S. immigration judge ruled he could not be deported to. Diawara says he was homeless and went into hiding. Watch the 60 Minutes report Sunday at 7 p.m. ET/PT on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.

Blaming this on the Democrats is genuinely insane and delusional
Pandora's box has been opened with the pardon power, and that power is not going back in the box. Mass pardons on the way out of office became the new normal when President Biden pardoned his family.

When Republicans say that it is illegitimate to prosecute them for all of the federal crimes that they are committing, and which they do not dispute they are committing, we should believe them.
This is Senator Brian Schatz this week. When Democrats say they are going to prosecute and go after junior Trump staffers, we should believe them.

Dr Oz has been surprisingly okay (other than hunting down Armenians?) but getting rid of RFK is a major selling point here
Rick Scott says if Republicans lose the Senate then Dr Oz and RFK Jr will lose their jobs 🤔

Ironically I think it's this exact issue that hurt Ramaswamy. His campaign staffers were, consciously or not, informed by the hyper-online/elite debates about the role of family — too online to remember that 1) for the vast majority of normal people, both liberal and conservative, the entire discussion is puzzling, and 2) Acton's story was horrific physical violence — not making TikToks about going no contact after amorphous "harm"
This is a delusion held by many on the Left, and it’s at the root of the anti-family mindset that lingers in some corners. They believe the typical family is horrifically abusive and dishonest.

What would you say is the most you ever sacrificed for another person? What did it cost you and what was the context?

Yeah it's a really weird and dumb theological argument and I'm honestly not sure where it came from. It seems like people inadvertently created it from other disparate theological claims like John 3:16 and verses like 1 Cor 6:20, and the need to see everything as superlative

It’s really peak @VivekGRamaswamy. Not only does he become a cheerleader for child rape to save his dying campaign. He tracked down an 82 yr old homeless woman living in a car in a church parking lot with a bunch of cats to star in his child rape ad.

NEW - Adolf Hitler's Alpine retreat, the Eagle's Nest, was completely destroyed after a potential arson attack last night in Bavaria's Berchtesgaden, Germany.
