Let me guess - the article is ~3+k words and the 14 words aren't even mentioned.

Nom-nom-nom - "It's official act! Nom-nom-nom...

"Are you fucking kidding," replies the Grim Reaper.

It's virtue upvoting and fantasy football election fantasies. Every post was upvoted. There's no way you could convince me that people read them or even scanned most of them.

And - Biden's team says he won't have events after 8 pm. Getting him to election day without more "bad days" will be a quite struggle.

In the very near future I assume after around 6ish pm he's done for the day. And as the days continue the sunset comes earlier and earlier - so will appearances after late afternoon. In October if he's still the candidate - I bet he'll never have any activity of any kind even in private with donors after ~3 pm. Recording devices can be everywhere. And it takes just one recording of a "bad day" Biden for it to be like Romney's "47% shiftless freeloaders" secretly recorded clip.

Never interrupt your enemy when his brains are leaking out of his ears.

A Bluesky thread

Amazing the Olivia Nuzzi story can’t get a single person to go on the record, and the strongest evidence against Biden’s mental health is he didn’t remember her name.

Emphasis mine.

Longtime friends of the Biden family, who spoke to me on the condition of anonymity, were shocked to find that the president did not remember their names. At a White House event last year, a guest recalled, with horror, realizing that the president would not be able to stay for the reception because, it was clear, he would not be able to make it through the reception.

The guest wasn't sure they could vote for Biden, since the guest was now open to an idea that they had previously dismissed as right-wing propaganda: The president may not really be the acting president after all. Others told me the president was becoming increasingly hard to get ahold of, even as it related to official government business, the type of things any U.S. president would communicate about on a regular basis with high-level officials across the world.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Health

In 1999, Ginsburg was diagnosed with colon cancer, the first of her five bouts with cancer. [...] By February 2020, the cancer had returned but this news was not released to the public. However, by May 2020, Ginsburg was once again receiving treatment for a recurrence of cancer. She reiterated her position that she "would remain a member of the Court as long as I can do the job full steam", adding that she remained fully able to do so.

She died four months later on September 18.

If the title was "events after sundown" - it would be a straight up Onion headline. Man, we are fucked.

Not yet. But inshallah - it will be.
