Hear that, mothers and fathers of America? JD Vance says that you were worthless until you had children. JD Vance says that your children who aren't parents are worthless.
Can a couch give informed consent?
Middle East conflicts have always been very fine needles to thread, and this one is one of the finer ones. Harris' statement on her meeting with Netanyahu was excellent.
Note also that Harris is currently Vice President of the United States, and what she says reflects actual US government sentiments, while Trump is a twice impeached 78 year old convicted felon who spends his efforts thinking about whether he's more afraid of electricity or sharks.
How many noses have fallen to its lure?
Yes, of course the US (and UK) essentially installed the Shah in Iran in 1953. That was not the Islamic Revolution.

Something went really wrong with polling in the mid-2010s.
It became much easier to ignore pollster calls. People were dropping land lines entirely, and gained the capability of automatically ignoring unknown callers. When I was younger, if the phone rang, you answered it. Voice calls simply don't carry that kind of importance with younger generations, so the respondents to pollsters are going to skew towards older people (and probably some other demographics).
The problem with cold-call polling is that the respondents are necessarily "people who answer the phone for an unknown caller" and then "actually interact with that caller." How do you weight your polling to consider the opinions of people you cannot get responses from?

In case you missed the rest of that very sentence:
... it was later revealed that it was [live].
"Your Honor, my client is an honest man, as is evidenced by his statement about face-shooting."
"I'm Kamala Harris, and I approve this message."
The 81-year-old president said he's bowing out after remaining defiant for weeks in the face of calls to withdraw from the 2024 race.

Dogs are great!
For the sake of clarity, my opinion that dogs are great is not in any way meant to compare them to any other animals. I am not suggesting that other compainion animals are in any way "worse" than dogs.
