Aged 16 in 1832 ? Then she was born at the dawn of The Era of Good Feelings! Maybe that explains it.

On Hugh Hewitt's show, McConnell says it's "highly unlikely" he'd allow Biden to fill a Supreme Court vacancy in 2024 if he's majority leader. He also doesn't commit to allowing a vote on a nominee if a seat opened up in *2023*."Well, we'd have to wait and see what happens."— Sahil Kapur (@sahilkapur) June 14, 2021

Yeah. It seems like the clownishness, which is actually kind of chaotic, like, accelerationism??? appeals to ppl who think politics is a sport that you watch for entertainment. Ie, I guess, people who already have all the rights so they don't care because it doesn't affect them.

(Genuinely curious, have not been following the mayoral race)
Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams holds a solid 11-point lead in the Democratic primary for mayor, according to a new survey released Wednesday.
Adams is the choice of 26 percent of likely Democratic voters, with entrepreneur Andrew Yang in second place with 15 percent support, the poll conducted by the lobbying firm Capalino & Company with the Honan Strategy Group.
rank choice makes this unpredictable though

his whole campaign is based on targeting low-information voters.

Andrew Yang doubles down on his debate comments: "We all see these mentally ill people on our streets and subways, and you know who else sees them? Tourists.

Generally speaking, political power is too important to be entrusted to anyone who craves it. It's a paradox. Those with the arrogance and ambition required to seek power are usually the last people to whom it should be given.

Adams in likely lead with 31% of first-place primary votes, followed by Maya Wiley and Kathryn Garcia on 22 and 20, and Yang in fourth with 11.5%.

It seems like the NY Republican Party just gave up on this election: the only two candidates in their primary were Curtis Sliwa, a literal subway vigilante from the 80s, and Fernando Mateo, who looks like if Fat Joe was cast as The Thing in a Fantastic Four movie, and Sliwa won it like 75-25.
