Like it or not, if Harris is going to win in November, it will be by peeling off some right-leaning independents and Republicans. Naming a Republican to her cabinet is smart. Tim Walz has some ideas. (The Wrap)
Speaking of K. Harris, she’s going to give an interview on Fox News on Wednesday, and D. Trump is big mad. This is how you get under the man’s skin. I hope she mentions often that Trump won’t release his medical records, nor will he agree to a second debate. The interview also smartly goes to her effort to reach the middle and raise that man’s blood pressure. (VF)
It seems to be working, too. She just got the endorsement of … Geraldo Rivera. Wow. (Deadline)
Speaking of which, I suspect this is not going to get a lot of play tonight, but the rabbi during the weekend’s Central Synagogue service gave a stellar sermon about how the political divide is no longer about right vs. left but about the center vs. extremism. He makes some good points. (YouTube)
And don’t forget this: No matter who wins in November, we are going to bend some motherf**king arc. Bend it like Ginsburg! (Substack)
They’re talking about who might play Britney Spears in their biopic, and their choice is apt, but I have to say, in the Moms-of-pre-teen-girls demographic, she is not popular even if her music is great. (Lainey)
I’m sorry. I haven’t covered PL in a while. Have the Celebitchy folks given the Royals a break and gone hardcore into U.S. politics now? Good pivot, except I don’t give a flying good goddamn what Harrison Butker thinks about anything. (Celebitchy)
I’ll just say this: The 2024 Fug Girls are being generous to Cate Blanchett here, but the 2012 Fug Girls would have had a field day. (Can 2024 Pajiba say that?) (GFY)
Don’t look now, but Sarah Sherman has a running gag going on over on SNL. (LateNighter)
I’m less surprised that Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman are making a musical together and more surprised that Craig Brewer is directing. How many flops does that guy get to make? (JoBlo)
I get that it’s nice to have a date night and be seen about town, but the Yankees? Come on, Travis Kelce/Taylor Swift. You’re better than that (unless you’re rooting for the Guardians, then forget what I just said). (Vulture)
Cannonballers are amazing people. In this issue of Quick Questions, katie71483 interviews Debcapsfan and learns how her son saved her husband’s life, about her love of hockey, and which book she’d like to talk about with Cannonballers. Hint, it’s Hench. Can someone explain what is going on with Hench’s villain? (Cannonball Read 16)
