Doubly true for Rafael, given the bill he introduced

But Trump underperformed down-ballot in 2020. People showed up to vote for all the other Republicans but then not for him.

I am in Texas, and I do hate Ted Cruz. But in 2020 we saw Trump underperform down-ballot races. We would have to see him outperform them this year and we now have the fallout from Dobbs motivating voters in favor of Harris. What issues would make someone vote for Trump and not Cruz?

I have a tough time imagining left-leaning voters would vote for Allred and not Harris, so that would require right-leaning voters casting votes for Trump but not Cruz. And I can’t envision that being a common enough scenario to split the state-wide vote like that.

Who the hell would change their vote from Harris to Stein based on an endorsement from a former Ku Klux Klan leader?!

I’d rather watch the recap than manually skip around through a previous episode. And if the recap leaves me confused then I’ll looks at the last episode.

Eudora! I had forgotten all about that one.

ERMAGHERD dat typo!

I can’t laugh heard enough about this.

Yeah if this isn’t a step on the path to "connect your phone to this [usb-c|thunderbolt|whatevs] dock and you get a full desktop OS, I’m not super interested.

If Proton would offer feature to send from your mailbox with external SMTP accounts, like GMails, I would sign up for unlimited.

Neighborhoods and cities and such. See the crisis in Flint, Michigan.

There are a couple of pixelfed Lemmy communities you might want to cross post this to. If you already have a mastodon account you might post there with #pixelfed #flickr

school shootings (being common)

Just goes to show how awful he thinks it should be.

So just let the cops go out and hit the streets free of ethics and legal restraint to just do whatever the fuck they want for an hour to beat the public in submission. That’s not at all dictatory. Nope. Not one bit.

It’s actually different people saying those two parts of the sentence. As a US Senator, Eden Wyden is positioned to submit a bill to protect abortion at the federal level. So this hearing is likely for gathering information to use in a bill to restore abortion rights nationally, rather than an attempt to bully the healthcare providers.

My work commute is minimum 40 minutes one way by car. Probably 2.5 hours by bus, with probably 20 minutes of walking, in Texas heat and humidity.

No, of course not. Piracy would sour the cream.
