Bill Kristol: Rally Around the Flag
This is a good moment for Biden to proudly raise the flag right-side up, and share his love of America—even as his DOJ prosecutes Hunter.
-

Donald Trump collaborated with a slimy crew to break the law, and it may have swung the 2016 election.
-
Derek Thompson: Negativity Bias
America is currently stuck in a negativity vibe, and it's shaping the media we consume, impacting how we look at the economy, and contributing to the anxiety of our teens.
-
David Frum: Complete Chaos
If Trump were to win, his plans to sabotage the Justice Department and consolidate power would plunge the country into chaos.
-
John Heilemann: Piss and Vinegar
If persuadable voters are going to back an octogenarian, they are going to need to see less caution—and more piss and vinegar from Biden to combat Trump's "me strong, you weak" schtick.

Sarah Longwell and A.B. Stoddard: Won't Get Fooled Again
Nikki, you're canceled. And while Trump's flaunting his partnership with Putin and showcasing men charged with murder, the media's covering 2024 like a normal campaign.

Great Podcast
Dear Tim
Don't confuse the rule of law and the facts of the Courts with the craziness of the public circle.
Elections are won and lost in the public circle, where facts are fungible and lies are allowed
Trump is a master in the public circle. As a demagogue, Trump has no rivals, and he has a herd of fools who believe him
Until we see a change in some polling, Trump is still very much in this race
I've seen absolutely no evidence that the Biden campaign knows how to handle the fire hose of shameless lies and nonsense. The Biden’s campaign is running a Senate campaign. Biden needs to bring in and turn loose the dogs i.e., Begala, Carville, and Schmidt
This election has always asked the central question: are there more butt-holes than halfway decent people in this country?
Personally I think there are more butt-holes. We'll know Nov 6th
Mexico
Shameful shameful commentary from David Frum about the Mexican elections. He should stick to American politics. Very embarrassing invoking communism and Stalin to describe the next president of the Mexico.
A rare tolerable politipod
I am so burned out on Trumpcentric politics. The Bulwark podcasts are the exception for me. I don’t always agree with their takes. But I enjoyed Charlie, always been a fan of Tim Miller and Sara Longwell is the only person who can make listening to Trump voter focus groups at all palatable
