Chuck Darwin<p>Harris meets with small team as she builds a campaign on the fly </p><p>As Vice President Kamala Harris ramps up a presidential campaign with almost unprecedented speed, <br>she has been meeting quietly but regularly with a small group of close aides to go over everything <br>from upcoming speeches <br>to her convention address and debate preparation.<br>
Sometimes the meetings are at Harris’s official residence in the Naval Observatory; <br>other times, in deference to her intensifying travel schedule, they take place on the road, with some aides joining via Zoom.<br>
The group, which started convening in June to prepare Harris for what was expected to be a vice-presidential debate, <br>has now become the closest thing she has to a brain trust. </p><p>The team includes <a href="https://c.im/tags/Lorraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lorraine</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Voles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Voles</span></a> and <a href="https://c.im/tags/Sheila" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sheila</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Nix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nix</span></a>, her chiefs of staff at the White House and campaign respectively. </p><p>Also included are <a href="https://c.im/tags/Karen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Karen</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Dunn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dunn</span></a>, who helped Harris prepare for her 2020 debate, </p><p>and <a href="https://c.im/tags/Rohini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Rohini</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kosoglu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kosoglu</span></a>, a longtime policy adviser.<br>
Harris, supplied with briefing books by her aides, <br>often spends time in the mornings or aboard Air Force Two reviewing materials assembled by these aides and others, <br>taking notes and making edits.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Philippe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Philippe</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Reines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Reines</span></a>, a longtime aide to Hillary Clinton, has been lined up to play the part of Trump in debate practice.<br>
The meetings are a reminder that Harris is assembling a campaign on the fly. </p><p>Less than a month will have elapsed between President Joe Biden’s exit from the race on July 21, making Harris the likely nominee, <br>and the kickoff of the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 19. </p><p>That provides a tiny window for Harris to figure out how she wants to talk to voters and shape her message.<br><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/08/09/harris-trump-debate-plans/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">washingtonpost.com/politics/20</span><span class="invisible">24/08/09/harris-trump-debate-plans/</span></a></p>

I work for God, and God has given me a bunch of jobs to do.” </p><p>Dunn directs that work from the center of a hive of his own creation, surrounded by politicians and pastors, fellow oil billionaires, and political consultants, all of whom are carrying out his vision. </p><p>He still has a bee on a string—except these days, that bee is the state of Texas. <br><a href="https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/billionaire-tim-dunn-runs-texas/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">texasmonthly.com/news-politics</span><span class="invisible">/billionaire-tim-dunn-runs-texas/</span></a></p>

Don Trueten :antifa:<p>Révolution au bar dansant: Venom Inc. live 16 juin 2023 au Hellfest Open Air Festival, Clisson </p><p>On leur doit le black metal, <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Metallica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Metallica</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Megadeth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Megadeth</span></a> et bien d’autres. Les légendes de <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Venom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Venom</span></a> Inc. reviennent en trombe sur la scène du <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Hellfest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hellfest</span></a> avec leur album "There’s Only Black".</p><p>Rares sont les artistes pouvant se targuer d’avoir créé un genre musical majeur. Plus rares encore sont ceux qui ont donné un nom au genre qu’ils ont créé. C’est pourtant le cas des anglais de Venom Inc., du moins à l’époque où ils faisaient encore partie de Venom (sans inc.).</p><p>Car le projet Venom est aujourd’hui un monstre à deux têtes. D’un côté: Venom tout court, mené par Conrad Lant. De l’autre: Venom Inc. formé par Jeff <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Dunn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dunn</span></a> et Tony <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Dolan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dolan</span></a> qui font route à part depuis 2015.</p><p>C’est à l’aube des années 80, bien avant la scission donc, que les metalleux originaires de Newcastle en Angleterre publient deux albums qui posent les bases du thrash et du black metal. Le deuxième de ces albums, sobrement nommé Black Metal donnera d’ailleurs son nom au mouvement que reprendront par la suite leurs lointains descendants norvégiens.</p><p>Mais n’allons pas croire que Venom Inc. est une histoire du passé. Avec l'album There’s Only Black fin 2022, le groupe revient en force et compte bien le faire savoir au public du Hellfest.</p><p>Concert filmé le 16 juin 2023 au Hellfest Open Air Festival, <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Clisson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Clisson</span></a>.</p><p><a href="https://www.trueten.de/archives/12821-Revolution-au-bar-dansant-Venom-Inc.-live-16-juin-2023-au-Hellfest-Open-Air-Festival,-Clisson.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">trueten.de/archives/12821-Revo</span><span class="invisible">lution-au-bar-dansant-Venom-Inc.-live-16-juin-2023-au-Hellfest-Open-Air-Festival,-Clisson.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/BlackMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMetal</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/NWobHM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NWobHM</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Metal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Metal</span></a></p>
