Biden, Warren, Sanders, Buttigieg, Harris. The rest can GTFO and stop wasting my time.

Delaney may not be the best messenger but he’s correct that running on entirely eliminating private health insurance is indeed political suicide. It’s why Harris, after raising her hand for eliminating private health insurance in the last debate, immediately said she “misheard” the question the next day.

And I’m glad…

Well he used full sentences which tends to lean against that theory.

I think Delaney’s advisers told him to make sure to smile; what that did is show him smiling creepily whenever Sanders or Warren ripped him apart.

Not to mention, he wrote A BILL. There are plenty of other medicare for all bills. It was a snappy answer that makes no sense upon scrutiny.

Imagine living the irony of being so against socialism, but also being so publicly owned.

fuck

Honorable mention to every exchange between Bernie Sanders and an absolutely terrified Tim Ryan:

Trump is a Northeastern Republican.

He could probably physically run circles around 45, for that matter.

No, it’s their way of saying that intersex indivuduals are not women as defined for athletic purposes. Therefore, they must either lower their testosterone levels if they want to compete in women’s races or start in men’s races.

Sure, he’s an “Old White Man.” He’s also a guy who can run high IQ circles around 45; experience-in-politics circles around your-flavor-of-the-day- younger Dem; and a freakin’ circle of compassionate fire around all of the other contenders.

I know it’s not going to happen, but damn, please let Warren and Sanders run together. Their seats are “safe” and they fill in where the other lacks.

Sanders: “Medicare for All is comprehensive. It covers all healthcare needs for senior citizens. It will finally include dental care, hearing aids, and eyeglasses.”

Lauren, you are leaving out vital details in your reporting. This rule only applies to intersex women, not broadly to women with high testosterone. You elide the fact that Semenya (and Niyonsaba and Wambui) are intersex women, with XY chromosomes and internal testes that give them levels of functional testosterone…

The issue is that genetically she has a XY chromosome pair, and we divide most competitive sports by sex specifically because the extra testosterone produced by people with XY chromosomes gives those people a huge advantage to those with XX chromosomes. Caster Semenya does not neatly fit into either of those…

Oh, she can run... as long as she’s on meds that reduce her testosteron to below the threshold.

No, she’s not. The ruling is actually very specific and regards women with XY chromosome pairs. She does not have XX chromosomes.

No, because the divisions are based on sex, not gender.

The ruling is specific to 46X/Y people, which means she isn’t a XX chromosome female.  That’s the part Deadspin likes to leave out.
