It is paywalled. I’ve been considering a FT subscription, so maybe now is the time. About ready to drop NYT.
I don’t know how to get to a plain version or I would do it.

That’s still a band-aid unless the filibuster is also used to expand the Supreme Court. Otherwise, it’s kicking the can down the street.

News outlets and pundits say, “Harris should do more to reach the public/show who she is/inform voters about her policy plans.”
They act like she’s in hiding while she’s setting records on Zoom, meeting with HUGE crowds, and talking to Oprah, FFS.

I think it’s probably time for the filibuster to go away entirely as it’s been used for evil at least as much as it’s been used for good for decades now. But I sure hope that the Democrats can maintain control of the Senate. It hasn’t been in the news as much as the presidential race but the Democrats are defending a lot more seats than the Republicans in this cycle.

Lynda Carter is showing the cast of The Boys how her original Wonder Woman bracelets worked and it’s one of the greatest geek-out moments I’ve ever seen. I had no idea she had to set off the squibs herself with a controller concealed in each hand.
