Early voting - Lawyers, Guns & Money As of now all but three states provide some form of no-excuse early voting. 20% of the vote was early in 2004. This rose to 30%, 32%, and 39% in the next three presidential elections if we assume five million votes per day over the next seven days, we're looking at 83 million early votes, and if that's 55% of the total we have . . . 151 million total votes, which would be about 4% lower than in 2020. But obviously there's a lot of guesswork in all those numbers at this point.

The Silencing of Sylvia Plath | The Nation In Emily Van Duyne's Loving Sylvia Plath she asks if we can fully understand the poet's work without understanding her abusive marriage to Ted Hughes ... One of these interviewees was Dr. Ruth Beuscher, Plath's psychiatrist. Beuscher treated her at McLean Hospital after her suicide attempt in 1953 (which Plath fictionalized in The Bell Jar), and the two stayed close in the decade that followed: In 1958, she treated Plath again when she was in Boston for a year with Hughes, and in 1959, when Plath settled in London, she maintained a correspondence with her until Plath's death in 1963 ... In 1969, six years after Plath's death by suicide in her London apartment, Wevill died in the same manner: suicide by gas in her London home. She also intentionally killed the child she had with Hughes, the 4-year-old Shura Wevill.

Fact-checking Over 12,000 of Donald Trump's Statements About Immigration | The Marshall Project - But immigration in the U.S. is strongly associated with lower crime. Looking at data from 200 metropolitan areas, a 2017 study found immigrants are "less likely to offend than native born Americans" and "for property crimes, immigration has a consistently negative effect" on a region's crime rate. That trend, National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) research found, has been consistent all the way back to 1870 ... Trump's oft-repeated assertion that immigrants make crime worse is shared by around half of Americans, according to a 2023 survey - a number relatively consistent with when Pew started asking the question nearly a quarter-century ago. Only 5% of respondents thought immigrants reduce crime.

Flowers for America - Lawyers, Guns & Money Ezra Klein has a really perceptive piece on the discreet charm of the Donald Trump ... His analysis here -- it's a fairly long essay by the standards of the Instagram Age -- is that the key to Donald Trump's success as a politician is that he's a completely disinhibited personality. This disinhibition makes him authentic and charismatic to his fans. It's also his biggest weakness, because there are some huge disadvantages to giving someone with the cognitive development and emotional impulse control of a spoiled child the most powerful and important job in the world ...

An Update to Our Readers -- New York Media Press Room Last month, the magazine enlisted the law firm Davis Wright Tremaine to review Olivia Nuzzi's work during the 2024 campaign. They reached the same conclusion as the magazine's initial internal review of her published work, finding no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias. Nevertheless, the magazine and Nuzzi agreed that the best course forward is to part ways. Nuzzi is a uniquely talented writer and we have been proud to publish her work over her nearly eight years as our Washington Correspondent. We wish her the best.
Eschaton: "Bias" There's a certain kind of justthefacts journalism that can fit nicely into the "fair/balanced/objective/unbiased" journalism model, and, rightly or wrongly, that model can be applied more broadly, if much more imperfectly .. I get that this is attorneyspeak, but in the context of Nuzzi's general work what can "[no] evidence of bias" possibly mean here? It's completely ridiculous for the specific issue, of course. She had some sort of affair with a presidential candidate she was profiling and promoting! But even aside from the specific issue, how could the type of work she did ever lack "bias?" - I've decided that increasingly all those descriptions are just euphemisms for "in the club."

Birthright Israel returned after Oct. 7, but the Jewish rite of passage is more contentious than ever. For many, it's still a rite of passage. But it's more contentious now than ever ... a program that offers free trips to Israel for Jews between the ages of 18 and 26. Birthright's operations halted after Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas militants kidnapped 251 people ... Less than 100 days into the war, though, the Israeli tourism company reinstated Birthright. In January, it welcomed 350 new participants -- 80 percent of whom were American—and thousands have traveled to Israel for the trip since then. Participation dipped this past summer by 12 percent compared with 2023. But almost 14,000 young adults participated in the program after it restarted this year ... Nearly 25 years ago, billionaires Michael Steinhardt and Charles Bronfman led a team of Jewish philanthropists to tackle the dilemma of Jews' "steadily drifting away from their heritage." ... Today she views Birthright as a mechanism to garner "support [for] the demolition of Palestinian homes and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, in not-so-explicit terms."

Immigration both helps to increase our per person income, but analyses such as the Penn Wharton Budget Model show it also helps increase the income of the nation as a whole. This is important when we think about the role of the United States in the world, as it deals with rivals such as China: without immigration the US would see declining population and a stagnating GDP, badly limiting our ability to protect our interests in the world.

Jimmy Carter votes for Kamala Harris - Lawyers, Guns & Money ... The gap between Carter's birth and his vote today is the same as the gap between his birthday and the presidency of James Monroe in the other direction. Monroe fought in the Revolutionary War and subsequently studied law under Thomas Jefferson. Curiously, three of the first five presidents died on July 4th (Jefferson and Adams famously both died on the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Monroe died five years later to the day). Carter carried every state of the Old Confederacy in 1976. The past is a different country . . . I strongly recommend Rick Perlstein's Reaganland for a rich cultural history of the Carter presidency and the rise of the New Right.

But the thing is, Trump is a really good liar of a certain well-known type. That type is the totally sleazy salesman who just tells the audience exactly what it wants to hear, with zero regard for the truth. This is the liar as bullshitter, to invoke the famous Frankfurtian distinction: Trump is the kind of liar who is totally unconcerned about whether what he's saying is true or not, which in a strict analytical sense makes him not exactly a liar, since a liar has to care enough about the truth to violate it. Trump just doesn't care, at all. He's totally unconstrained by standards of veracity, plausibility, logical consistency, basic human decency, or anything else.

The Price of Milk - Lawyers, Guns & Money
If Americans Want a White Nation Then By God They Will Pay For It - Lawyers, Guns & Money I can't wait for Democrats to get blamed for the skyrocketing price of milk if Trump wins and then puts Stephen Miller in charge of the ethnic cleansing campaign: ... And the productivity of his dairy -- and of almost every successful dairy in America -- now depends overwhelmingly on immigrants. ... The Idaho Dairymen's Association estimates that 89 percent of the state's on-site dairy workers are foreign-born. Nationally the number may be closer to 51 percent, according to a survey published in 2015 by Texas A&M. And research by academics in New York, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Vermont suggests that the majority of these immigrants are undocumented ... What Peter does know, however, is that without foreign-born workers, his dairy could not stay afloat. Americans are understandably reluctant to perform dirty, dangerous and demanding work ... Americans have no idea how their beloved low food prices are entirely reliant on undocumented labor. They are quite likely to find this out and if you think bird flu leading to a brief price hike in eggs was an issue, wait for this one.

She was the first American journalist expelled from Nazi Germany, and that expulsion was no small thing ...

Trump will escalate his prosecution of rivals if he is re-elected - Lawyers, Guns & Money
How Trump Could Persecute His Political Adversaries - The New York Times
If the Dems somehow pull off the trifecta - Lawyers, Guns & Money - Also too, this election is among other things a straight up referendum on whether Donald Trump should be sent to prison by the federal government. Any claim that Harris should drop the prosecution or even pardon Trump - and there will be many of course - requires overlooking that to the extent voters are voting on any specific question, they're voting on that. Anybody who fails to recognize that, especially if they've even glanced at the documents I reference above, is either a liar or an idiot.

The Gender Gap Among Gen Z Voters, Explained - The New York Times There is a significant gender gap in the political preferences of Gen Z voters in the United States,Young women - those ages 18 to 29 - favored Vice President Kamala Harris for president by 38 points. And men the same age favored former President Donald J. Trump by 13 points. That is a whopping 51-point divide along gender lines, larger than in any other generation.

The People Deciding Whether Democracy Continues to Exist in America - Lawyers, Guns & Money Undecided voters ... Jesus Christ, who are these idiots? Perlstein explores this question.
Who Are the 'Undecided'? - The American Prospect - It may not be about issues, but whether voters surrender to Trump's invitation to return to the womb ... Perhaps the greatest myth about undecided voters is that they are undecided because of the 'issues.' ... "Undecided" is a way station between the final surrender to the Trumpian fantasy, and all the imaginary comforts it offers, and sticking with the rest of us in the reality-based community, despite all the existential terrors the real world affords.
Staring into the void - Lawyers, Guns & Money This is a followup to Erik's post on Rick Perlstein's essay regarding undecided voters. This quote from the essay was so resonant (and frightening) to me that I wanted to highlight it:
Things are terrible because I was told they would be - Lawyers, Guns & Money I have struggled to understand how people can actually believe Trump's American carnage nonsense that goes along with Trump's crazy and the economic stuff ... It's insane but I can get why certain people want to avoid the cognitive dissonance of noticing that all the terrible consequences that were being predicted by people they trusted didn't come to pass. They want to live in a reality where this stuff was right all along and will follow a crazy old man that tells them that this is all real and everyone who says different is lying ... the conservative mind does what it always does best, which is to ignore empirical reality and create a counter-narrative, in what should be happening is happening, because otherwise their whole world view would make no sense, and we can't have that. And, as Tzimikes points out, Rupert Murdoch monetized the holy heck out of that elemental need.

Aaron Rupar on X: "I don't run Facebook" -- Walz highlights the absurdity of Vance trying to twist a discussion of J6 into a debate over social media moderation policies "I think you've got a really clear choice on who is gonna honor that democracy and who is gonna honor Donald Trump," he adds / X undefined
JD Vance and the future of the GOP - Lawyers, Guns & Money ... First, a lot of Trump's popularity is connected to the fact that he reflects a kind of knee-jerk anti-government, anti-expertise, pro-stupidity viewpoint: ... But what Vance represents - extreme political and cultural reaction in the (this week anyway) Catholic integralist form, which for the moment is in an alliance of convenience with the Protestant evangelical dominionist variety of the same broad christofascist ideology -- is part of an American form of anti-liberal anti-secularist authoritarianism that is going to be playing a major role in our politics long after Trump is finally gone.
Eschaton: Is Your Job To Inform Readers - CBS: Revoking visas and citizenship has been presented as housing policy!
Eschaton: Is It Your Job To Inform Readers - An increasingly invoked defense of the New York Times (and other outlets) is that its critics think if only it covered Trump/Republicans the way liberals wanted them to, that Democrats would win elections. This is followed by the assertion that they don't have that power and nothing they do actually matters ... Musk's views were obvious to anyone who paid attention to Musk, instead of "Musk" the media PR creation, but it's against the noble ethics of journalism to ever listen to people who know what they are talking about.
