Tim Urban, Katherine Boyle, and Victor Davis Hanson on SpaceX’s triumph. Plus: Democrats voting for Trump. Ben Kawaller’s latest Swing State Debate. And more.
What a fascinating roundtable! What I would tell people who don't want to vote, having skipped a few elections myself because I couldn't stomach either candidate, is there are other offices and referenda at stake. Reproductive rights are on the ballot in 10 states, so if those are something you value then you can still make your voice heard without having to choose between Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.
...At the cost of continuing to allow potentially dangerous to force themselves into private places where women are vulnerable? Oh, well, great, if she's impregnated by a trans-identified male at least she can theoretically get an abortion she can't afford. No thank you. The Left's War on Women clearly aims at women's right to say no to *anything*.
Oh it’s ok according to the NYTimes that Harris only plagiarized 500 words, not a big amount (unless they are your words), and ABC’s Martha Raddatz says it’s only a handful of apartments taken over by Venezuelan gangs in Aurora- no biggie. Okay, hey Martha how about you open up your gated 2+million dollar home so some illegals have a place to stay! Honestly, these people live in a different world
We need to see/hear more articles about how the free Palestine movement is taking hold in middle america and on our college campuses. It’s disgusting. Take a look at this:
I found it odd that the Wisconsin panel did not include any questions about "trans kids issues" when Madison is a known hotspot for lawsuits in this area. A detransitioner who so far remains anonymous is suing the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Medical School for the misdiagnosis when she had other co-existing conditions involving trauma. Additionally, there are lawsuits, one in Madison and one settled outside of Milwaukee, regarding elementary students identifying as the opposite sex in school and parents are kept in the dark by teachers. Many commentator believe this issue will sink Harris, of Drag Queens ad fame.
I just watched about half of the Ben Kawaller video. How many brain cells did I just lose. Two black women spewing grievance and a white liberal woman doing the liberal thing on race while two others struggled I’m sure not to scream in agony at the struggle session
It’s clear to the left that the only minority that counts is black and they deserve something because there was slavery. Blacks can’t be racist ever
Unwoke, watch a few seconds of Elon’s masterpiece coming back to rest in the “chopsticks”. You’ll gain back all your brain cells and than some. Awesome! I can’t stop watching it!
It's funny that when two conservatives decide to vote for Harris, you don't mention her questionable character, and I feel there is a lot to question of her character, her plagiarism not the least, but you had to mention Trump's character? Why is that?
I love how Oli has to specify those Trump stories are straight from NYT and TFP are only using them as a joke because otherwise the comments will lose their minds. I say, if people can't get jokes, let them be mad.
A lot of good points in Honestly today, but Bari, your strong dislike of Trump oozed through every question and disappointed me. My expectation is for a more neutral approach by the moderator, otherwise you may as well return to Main Street Media.
I listen to all of Tucker Carlson’s interviews and the modern historian who villified Churchill certainly threw me. His support for Alex Jones is off putting as well, but the large majority of his interactions are very interesting. Before anyone, especially you Bari, votes for Kamala, they should listen to Tucker interview Harmeet Dillion and her experiences through Kamala’s rise in California. Frightening.
I agree about listening to the Dhillon (?) interview. Who the president actually is does matter! Just because Kamala is a Dem does not mean that she is automatically good for the country as a whole. As a whole, please.
Thank You Shaun Maguire for the Space X video. I remember the day I took my mother and a friend out to Edwards Air Force Base to watch one space shuttle land and another take off piggyback on a 747 (?) bound for Florida.
The shuttle came down out of the sky much faster than it appeared on TV or film. Like a stone dropping out of the sky. The landing had perfect. There would be no second chance.
This is dumb group of tadpoles supporting the worst scum for post of American presidency. God dam them for their extreme right wing views 🌺🇮🇳☮️✊

It is simply the most uplifting miracle I've seen in a while! Thanks!
When I was a child, I dreamed of space travel.
Help! How do I ‘sign in’ to watch Ben’s round table? I’m signed into TFP and am a paid subscriber. I click and …nothing
That's strange. Try clicking on the "YouTube" logo at bottom right and it will take you straight to YouTube where you can view it there:)

Ben usually does better.
I thought it was a great round table. Worth the time. They were respectful and open

Watching It made me hungry! It looked like a gigantic flaming egg roll getting caught by two chopsticks.

Yes, in the cold light of day I look at my post and wonder what I was thinking.
Totally understood your comment. Heading out for Dim Sum now. Aloha.
Gretchen has to get that Allahu Akbar vote.
But we're told that Elon Musk is evil incarcerate. Say it ain't so Joe!

Thank You Shaun Mcquire for the Space X landing video!
Most of Poul Anderson' later sci-fi books are about colonies established by private enterprise, as I recall.
