Last night's Democratic rally was wonderful. I was laughing and sobbing all the way through it. What an emotional release. We needed and deserved this. Beyond hope, we're finally going to fight. I hope President Kamala is really up to it, because we have a pretty substantial cleanup job to do here.

Earlier this summer, few Democrats could have identified Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota. But, in a matter of weeks, Mr. Walz has garnered an enthusiastic following in his party, particularly among the liberals who cheer on his progressive policies. On Tuesday, Vice President Kam...

Really strong intro for Tim Walz with the speeches in Pennsylvania today. I’m so impressed with how well Kamala Harris and her campaign have kicked things off. Clear message, but also they are having fun and it’s contagious. 🇺🇸

Love a blog post that starts with a history lesson. Ben Thompson writes about antitrust and the case against Google search. If the cash to Apple goes away, I think Apple will be better off. Just focus on what’s right for users and let search competition happen naturally. But Mozilla will be hurt badly.

The canonization of the first millennial saint has sparked calls for a queer saint. For some, Father Mychal Judge, New York City Fire Department chaplain and the first certified 9/11 casualty, is at the center of these calls. Antonio Pagliarulo, writer and author of The Evil Eye: The History, Mystery & Magic of the Quiet Curse (Weiser Books, 2023), makes the case.

A roadmap for the campaign is coming into view. Harris has her knee on Trump's neck, and she won't let up. There won't be time for anyone to get tired of her. The campaign rallies should get bigger and bigger, and more rambunctuous. Trump was a comedian, a cross between ...

Walz is Harris' choice. Picking Shapiro would have been leading with her chin because of Netanyahu. Walz looks older than her but they're actually the same age. And he figured out the right word to get under Trump's skin, so there's that. He just has to say weird in campaign speeches to bring down the house.

Kamala Harris picks Tim Walz. I’m a little surprised, Josh Shapiro seemed like a great choice. I noticed some social posts against Shapiro lately and think that negativity was overblown. But the choice was made, so here we go. 🇺🇸
