Trump is now the oldest POTUS candidate ever nominated by a major party.
He has repeatedly confused Biden with Obama and Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi. He fell asleep at his criminal trial.
Will the media scrutinize his age & mental decline with the fervor it focused on Biden?
“If there is not immediate intervention, thousands of Gazans will die of infections, malnutrition, and dehydration, in addition to the bombardment.
Creating a public health crisis is no way to hold people’s grief or pursue peace. We need a cease-fire now.”

Wow.
For a guy that doesn't speak up I'm not sure "speaker of the house" would be an appropriate position

I appreciate so much the work that goes into ContraPoints. The clarity of thought and writing, with enough fun in the presentation to make it easy to keep watching a documentary-length essay, is outstanding and this episode is worth your time, especially if you are still giving any of your mental time to the question of what to do about J.K. Rowling.
4/4.
But J.K. Rowling and her ilk (like Anita Bryant) is not the biggest problem, the devil, the "final boss" of transphobia. It's the Republican party, the Conservative party, patriarchy. They're just the palatable faces making the call for bigotry, exclusion, and then violence.

Anita Bryant did this against homosexuals in the late 1970s. Currently the 'dangerous outsider' is transgender people, and J.K. Rowling is a loud voice beating the drum and marching along with the Right and Far-Right
Natalie Wynn (Contrapoints, quoted above and linked below) traces the line from Bryant to Rowling in her latest video and does so with deep context and smart commentary.
