I’m incredibly gullible & give people passes b/c i believe they’ll eventually come around to doing the right thing…for eg. truly believed after #Midterms2022 #Democrats would #BringBackMasks
when #goop began couldn’t understand why people couldn’t stand it thinking, it’s just posts #recipes #recommendations what’s the harm?
HA; lots of harm actually
Makes me furious she complains about #longCovid but then models this🚫😷 #everythingIsFine
I had these outfits since ‘97 so she’s no fashion icon🙄
This analysis of the polls and the #fivethirtyeight model for the #Midterms2022 is a really interesting look at how even presentation of 'statistical data' is a kind of storytelling.
The debate is over whether media and polls wrongly predicted a 'red wave'.
Nate Silver says here that getting the wrong impression is because social media has made it 'all vibes' but I think the need to frame information in narratives is a far older and more basic tendency. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/politics-podcast-how-our-2022-forecasts-actually-did/
So #GenZ showed up and showed out in #Midterms2022 derailing the GOP's #RedWave. Now #TikTok, the social media platform that hosted their growing political activism, is in a bullseye, especially in ruby-red states. Time to find a backup venue!#

Starting to understand the frantic calls after #Midterms2022 to ban #TikTok. Time to step up and fortify your networking game. #VotingMatters #VoteBlue

I have returned to my interest in #astrology especially since I was terrified by the #Midterms2022 and losing to the #GOPorcs. This guy Andre from #AstrologyAlert. He posted this about #KevinMcCarthy. https://youtu.be/dZXszr6V_gM

La semana pasada quedó definida la distribución de la Cámara de Representantes de los Estados Unidos. Finalmente los republicanos se hicieron con la mayoría, aunque con un margen menor del previsto.
Resultados:
🔵Dem - 213
🔴GOP - 222
Kari Lake has affidavits to "prove" election problems w/ 200 in Maricopa. However, all but three still managed to vote. One complained about lack of parking & another about the long lines. If that works, there would be lawsuits in most states every election. #Midterms2022
I do think these are real issues in the U.S., especially in urban areas. But, you can't pretend to be concerned about access only when you lose. These have been real problems for many voters for a long time.
Maybe this is all part of George Santos’ plan to prove election fraud is real? 🤷♂️

Per la serie "abbiamo scherzato": la senatrice dell'Arizona, Kyrsten #Sinema, lascia il Partito democratico e si registra come indipendente. In questo modo la maggioranza democratica al Senato torna a quota 50, nonostante la recente vittoria di #Warnock in #Georgia. Non un'ottima notizia per #Biden, ovviamente #midterms2022
Non poteva mancare una puntata finale (ma davvero finale) di Midterm, il podcast di Jefferson - Lettere sull'America che vi racconta le elezioni di metà mandato negli Stati Uniti. Come sempre i testi sono della redazione, mentre la voce e la parte tecnica sono farina del mio sacco.
La trovate in tutte le principali piattaforme.
Buon ascolto!

Con la vittoria di Raphael Warnock al ballottaggio della Georgia (il candidato del GOP, Herschel Walker, si è fermato al 48,6%, mentre il senatore dem ha ottenuto il 51,4%), si chiudono - stavolta in via definitiva - le #midterms2022. Al Senato i democratici hanno la maggioranza di 51 seggi, uno in più rispetto a prima. Al di là di qualsiasi aspetto analitico, questo è un incredibile successo per #Biden (e nonostante la Camera a controllo repubblicano)
Well good morning #Georgia. Senate majority Democrats.
What the fuckity fuck actual fuck??? This is ridiculous!
How is it close? Seriously what the actual fuck is wrong with people????
It should not be this close!!
Meanwhile, in Australia, voters are treated to BBQs at voting locations and get to attend on a weekend. There's stuff and ideas in the US that leaves me scratching my head in utter confusion.
#usPol #usPolitics #midterms2022 #australia #Aussies
It is my sincere hope that after tomorrow - we are never forced to endure another stupid word to spew forth from Herschel Walker's face hole.
Please let it be so....

"Many pundits have scratched their heads and wondered how a race between two African American men, one a thoughtful and respected Christian minister who occupies the same pulpit as Martin Luther King, Jr., and the other a personable but deeply flawed former football star, is even close"
For the outside, the current attack on democracy in the " land of the free" is astounding & contradictory

The Republicans are not just good at gaslighting but also distractions, how else can you explain why they expect us to be angry about Hunter who is probably more harmful to himself than everyone else, but not Ivanka who actually profited from the people by the MILLIONS?
