If these tweets are on the up-and-up, these people need some mental help.

If Joe did anything like that to my family, he would be lucky not to end up with a bullet in his fvckin head, never mind vote for him.

Bernie can gather more delegates. A Federal judge says NYS has to hold the democratic primary.

 

</snip>

On Tuesday night, Douglas A. Kellner, a co-chair of the New York Board of Elections, said the board was “reviewing the decision and preparing an appeal.” And speaking on CNN, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said the presidential primary would proceed per the court’s ruling at least for the time being, but he noted the potential for an appeal.

Biden insiders slam Stacey Abrams’ veep pitch: ‘No one takes Stacey seriously’
 

</snip>
 

Stacey Abrams, a former Georgia State House leader, is aggressively marketing herself as a potential vice president for Joe Biden — increasingly irritating those in the former veep’s orbit, an insider said.
 

</snip>
 

“No one takes Stacey seriously. And her public campaigning for the job seems more like a hostage negotiation than an actual attempt to get the job,” a Biden insider told The Post. “Biden is an old school guy and will always be. Picking Stacey would be like picking [Sarah] Palin. He doesn’t need to throw a Hail Mary. He wants a good governing partner.”
 

Internally, her star has fallen with the onset of the coronavirus as concerns grow about her preparedness.
 

“Stacey isn’t ready on day one. Even she knows that and it’s why she’s engaging in this dance. She might get perfunctorily better, but she’s not a serious pick for him. And her campaign is viewed as much as promotion for her book as it is for being chosen as Biden’s VP,” the insider continued, referring to Abrams’ forthcoming book “Our Time Is Now.”

The bolded part stood out to me. I know this should be a quality of every VP candidate, but I don’t know if it is this first thing on the top of the list.  With Biden, it has to be. If he chooses a VP running mate who isn’t ready to step in immediately, it will hurt his chances.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: The One Poll Stat That Has Biden People Sweating. 

 

“As we survey this ever-shifting coronavirus landscape here in 2020, Trump supporters should be relieved about this Biden unfavorability news.

 

When that is coupled with an overwhelming voter enthusiasm gap the prospects for the president’s reelection look far better than the rest of the polling would indicate.”

Tara Reade:

 

Court filing by her ex-husband. (1996)


</snip>
 

A court document from 1996 shows former Senate staffer Tara Reade told her ex-husband she was sexually harassed while working for Joe Biden in 1993.
 

The declaration — exclusively obtained by The Tribune in San Luis Obispo, California — does not say Biden committed the harassment nor does it mention Reade’s more recent allegations of sexual assault.
 

Reade’s then-husband Theodore Dronen wrote the court declaration. Dronen at the time was contesting a restraining order Reade filed against him days after he filed for divorce, Superior Court records show.


</snip>
 

In the filing dated March 25, 1996, Dronen testified that he met Reade in the spring of 1993 while the two worked for separate members of Congress in Washington, D.C.
 

Dronen wrote that Reade told him she “eventually struck a deal with the chief of staff of the Senator’s office and left her position.”

“It was obvious that this event had a very traumatic effect on (Reade), and that she is still sensitive and effected (sic) by it today,” Dronen wrote.
