"Olympian Nathan Ikon Crumpton, American Samoa's 100m sprint national record holder, just uploaded a video where he talks about how a covid infection in January this year developed into long covid and stopped him from competing in the Paris Olympics. Covid is over/mild is a lie"

I nearly fell over seeing #CBC discussing this subject:

Surge of online bots supporting #Poilievre prompts call for investigation | Power Panel

Poilievre attended in Northern Ontario in July. Some of the posts claimed to be from people who attended the event and cited the 'energy' there, but were actually generated in countries like France, England and Russia.

As Scott Dworkin notes, while the media have been complaining that Kamala Harris is avoiding them as she gets her campaign underway, they've been ignoring Trump's absence:

"Why aren’t they questioning his obvious cognitive decline or putting a microscope on every word he says like they did with Biden? Instead, we see coverage of JD Vance pulling weird PR stunts, and how he’s attacking Walz’s 24 years of exemplary military service."

@skydog @GottaLaff I hope Kamala ends the debate with “Good luck on your upcoming felony sentencing hearing, Donald. If necessary, I’ll be happy to visit you in prison so we can debate again”

The #Georgia Election Board passed a rule that gives board members more discretion to investigate elections and potentially delay certification. Sara Tindall Ghazal, the only Democratic member of the board, said the rule violates state law.

Trump has finally agreed to a debate with Harris. This is gonna be good. #HarrisForPresident #HarrisWalz #Momala2024

#FactCheck

#Trump: “They’re going to destroy Social Security.”

False.

Pres #Biden & MVP #KamalaHarris have pledged not to make ANY cuts to America’s #social safety net programs.

Trump on the other hand suggested this year that he was open to scaling back the programs. He said, “there’s a lot you can do in terms of entitlements in terms of cutting”
He later tried to walk back those comments.

It has LONG been a goal of the GOP to get rid of social security.

Griffin:

The #Harris campaign responds to Trump's criticisms: "If Donald #Trump is so concerned about the success of VP Harris' campaign blitz, he could, you know, get out there on the campaign trail."

Alabama GOP Candidate Who Attended ‘Segregation Academy’ Pushes For Defunding Public Schools

Josh Marshall posted some analysis of NYT and WaPo's #swiftboating of Tim #Walz. The full piece is paywalled at Talking Points Memo, but here's the free part, below.

Bottom line: It's all lies, told by two MAGA extremists who used to be in Walz's unit, and coordinated by literally the same guy who swiftboated John Kerry in 2004. And then breathlessly amplified by NYT and WaPo, which are supposed to be legitimate newspapers, but aren't.

It's time for the job hunt again. If anyone has NY-based or remote #UX or #ProductManagement roles at the Lead/Manager/Director level, please sent them my way!

And if not - I'd still appreciate the signal boost.

#FactCheck

#Trump: “We should have paper ballots, we should have voter ID & we should have proof of citizenship.”

He is again implying that #undocumented #immigrants are #voting.

FALSE

Every single federal election voter, in every state, in every district is required to be a #citizen of the #UnitedStates.

It is the #law

The Illegal Immigration Reform & Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, explicitly prohibits noncitizens from voting in federal elections

I’m looking for work.

My experience doesn't neatly fit standard job titles or categories - the closest might be ‘empathetic interdisciplinary engineering leader’ developing new or complex things.

Read about what I can do, what I've done, and what I'd like to do next:
