Trump has a problem. For years, he’s falsely portrayed Joe Biden as weak and addled. But now he has to face him on Thursday in a nationally televised debate. So what’s a habitual liar to do? Keep lying, it seems. I explain in today’s piece, link in the replies.

Joe Biden has been in debate prep, where Trump will never set foot. That allowed a weekend for the press to focus solely on Trump’s campaign speeches, which were again filled with hate, false claims, and of course complete gibberish. My write up in the replies.

Biden is having a great June, with world leader summits and another huge celebrity campaign fundraiser. So of course, the GOP and its right-wing media allies have come at him, this time with edited videos and fake stories. My write-up on their dirty tactics in the replies.

We’ve long since lost hope that Trump will ever STFU. But lately, his big mouth, which has already gotten him cited for contempt of court, is landing him in some hot water politically. I take a look at some recent and prime examples. My piece in the replies.

Do the polls have you worried? Do you need some bright news? Put aside the polls and take a look instead at yesterday’s special election in OH-6. For us election watchers, the numbers are rather stunning. My write-up in the replies.

According to the headlines, the far right is resurgent in Europe and centrists are on the run. Watch out Joe Biden! But that’s not nearly the whole picture. There is a through line to recent election results, just not one the media broadly paints. My piece in the replies.
