A GOOD QUESTION: If Biden Saved the Economy, Why Do We Need Price Controls?
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR RULING CLASS IS AN ELITE MONOCULTURE:
To @elonmusk point— our cultural curators (boardrooms who run corporations, government, media, institutions, academia, etc.) have been for too long located in the super ZIP Codes therefore not reflective of the country as a whole, skewing their perspective away from the center https://t.co/NxCKUKsWxM

#JOURNALISM: WaPo Editors: Yes, Biden’s Inner Circle Hid His Cognitive Decline, But #YOLO or Something.
The DNC cooked its primary processes to keep Biden from facing real competition. Had they encouraged an open primary when Biden seemingly reversed course and decided to run for a second term, the “new generation of Democratic leaders” would have emerged organically, rather than with the unprecedented shelving of the results from 50 state contests — not to mention the anointing of a nominee rather than an election process at the convention.
And that brings us to the cover-up that the WaPo editors concede and then hastily set aside for their hosannas. Every single Democratic leader repeatedly attested to Biden’s superior intellectual skills and energy. The White House communications team repeatedly asserted that Biden could outlast staffers half his age when working behind the scenes, which left people wondering why he would get lost on stage and unable to complete sentences in public. And this “inner circle” cover-up most assuredly includes Kamala Harris, the anointed nominee, who talks with Biden every day and meets with him at least twice a week, according to the White House.
And what does it mean to have “worked to conceal his decline”? It means that Biden doesn’t have the capacity to execute the duties of his office, which is why it had to be concealed. And if Biden can’t fully handle the duties of the office, who’s running the executive branch? Who is making the decisions about the exercise of presidential authority? If it’s anyone not named Joe Biden, then a soft coup has taken place and the inner circle are conspirators in it, including Kamala Harris.
Yes. A soft coup has taken place and the inner circle are conspirators in it, including Kamala Harris.

TO BE FAIR, WHY WOULD THEY BE? Kam-ugh-la: Voters aren’t wowed by Harris, not the ‘best.’
IN OTHER WORDS, BUSINESS AS USUAL: Obamas lecture America on decency as the Democrats lie.

Except for, you know, forcing Biden out and installing Kamala without asking any voters.
THEY KNOW SHE’S LYING SO IT’S OKAY: Anti-Oil Groups, Undeterred by Harris’s U-Turn on Fracking, Spend Big To Boost Her Campaign.
It’s all going swimmingly:

OPEN THREAD: Tuesday’s groovy.
THE NEW SPACE RACE: Chinese spacecraft appear to reach lunar orbit despite launch setback.
RUMORS OF A DESPERATE MANPOWER SHORTAGE ARE JUST PROPAGANDA: Russian Space Force Deployed Against Ukraine in Kursk. “So what is the VKS up to these days? Developing and launching hunter-killer satellites into orbit? Searching for extraterrestrials? Perhaps some of them are, but not all of them. In fact, a bunch of them have now been deployed to the Kursk Oblast to fight off Ukraine’s surprisingly persistent incursion. Russia is claiming that the temporary transfer was required to deal with an unexpected manpower shortage in the region. Even some of the servicemen previously assigned to a Russian spaceport have been transferred to the front and put on infantry duty.”

MORE ON THAT CAR SEATS AS CONTRACEPTION STUDY. “The obvious direct step is to eliminate any and all car seat requirements beyond two years of age, or at least within three or four years of age. The vast majority of the damage done by car seat mandates happens after age four and almost all of it happens after age three, whereas the vast majority of the safety benefits (or, more likely, all of them) happen by age two and certainly by age four.”
