Kamala Harris, who launched her campaign for president, has long been a favorite of Hollywood donors.

Kamala Harris has launched her campaign for the White House, after President Joe Biden stepped aside Sunday under pressure from party leaders.

The vice president has Biden’s endorsement, and is unchallenged as yet for the Democratic nomination, which will be formally decided at the Aug. 19 convention in Chicago.

“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination,” Harris said in a statement. “I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda. We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.”

In her statement, the vice president paid tribute to Biden’s “extraordinary leadership,” saying he had achieved more in one term than many presidents do in two.

    Know of any go-to docs on this? I think we’d be better off with a guide or doc somewhere that just gets stickied to every politics thread.

    Admins: wanna get in on this?

        Okay, that paper is fantastic. Thank you.

        For everyone else the TLDR here is: trolling works by being a huge distraction and it may be more overt or subtle than you think. I’ll leave this here for every to see as they scroll by:

        Laid bare in this research it’s now clear to me that this isn’t the domain of savants or hyper talented people. You can absolutely train anyone to do this. But we can also train people to identify it.
