#KnowNothing#CardiB is too stupid to realize that NOT voting for #Biden is a vote FOR #Trump, and that her boycott of #Election2024 could be her last — She might not get another opportunity to vote EVER.
@benroyce@escarpment@rameshgupta well, I'm more than okay with her choice. First off, and yes, I want #biden2024 to win, he's just not well. He may still step aside, but should've done so already. Perhaps Biden considers that no one else can beat Trump.
I'd say that Trump could only beat Biden. Similarly, Biden can only defeat Trump.
But Cardi B is, in a sense, just a regular citizen. She's probably worried about blowback, and just confused and frustrated.
The Palestinian civil defence on Sunday said it has found hundreds of bodies of Palestinians buried in mass graves by Israeli forces in the courtyard of Nasser hospital in Khan Younis.
At least 200 bodies had been retrieved from two mass graves in the medical compound. As the search continued, rescuers estimated there to be at least 400 bodies.
Some of bodies found had been decapitated, and had their "skin and organs" removed.
I just started reading Democracy Awakening by the great Heather Cox Richardson, and the historical precedents for trumpist fascism laid out in sentence after sentence, paragraph after paragraph, are literally sickening. I mean, I lived through some of this and had no idea that Nixon secretly undermined the Vietnam peace talks to make Democrats look bad. We must keep TFG out of public office. #DemocracyAwakening#Biden2024 #HeatherCoxRichardson
In the Republican response to Biden's #StateOfTheUnion address, Senator #KatieBritt told a heart-wrenching story about a woman who was a survivor of cross-border sex trafficking, and tried to blame that horrible crime on Biden.
Every motherfucker who watched that State Of The Union speech by President Biden must get their asses out there and VOTE this November. That speech tonight means NOTHING if your asses stay home this November 5. GET BUSY VOTING!
I'm gonna vote for the old guy who can tie his shoes, ride his bicycle, and turn around the country after 4 years of GOP plunder, and not for the old, demented, waiting-for-a-heart-attack fascist.
Who will join me? #Biden2024
The #Biden Administration Has Taken More #ClimateAction Than Any Other in History
The #UnitedStates has accomplished more on #ClimateChange under the #BidenHarris admin than during any other presidential admin—& there’s still more to come.
#McConnell endorses #Trump
🤬🤬🤬
The #Senate minority leader is the highest-ranking #Republican to back Trump, & the move could help the f⁕⚠︎er w/major #donors “It is abundantly clear that …Trump has earned the requisite support of Republican voters to be our nominee for President of the United States,” #MitchMcConnell said in a statement to The Washington Post.
#McConnell — who has announced he will step down from his leadership role in Nov — is one of the most influential Washington #Republicans to back #Trump, & the #endorsement was a remarkable, if expected, move from the Kentucky Republican. He has held out in recent weeks as other Republicans have lined up to back Trump, including many who wanted a different nominee, & his endorsement means that almost every #powerful cog in the Republican apparatus is directly behind TFG.
In a normal universe, this would not be the description of a fortunate man.
But we do not live that universe, & we must consider the very real — & infuriating — possibility that #Trump is the single luckiest politician who ever lived.
For almost a decade (though it feels even longer), we’ve watched him trip through minefields, totter on the edge of sinkholes & step on trapdoors, each time thinking: This is it. Now he’s going down.
It has become a mantra of dashed hopes: The walls are (once again) closing in on #Trump. He’s on the brink, desperate. This time, surely this time. And yet, somehow, he escapes.
…In his oddly charmed #political life, Trump has benefited mightily from what political scientist Brian Klaas calls the “banality of crazy,” as the body politic has grown increasingly numb to Trump’s fire hose of malice.
100 mental health professionals have signed petition that Trump is showing clear signs of dementia. I don't think it's gonna make any difference - firstly, mental health experts have been writing warning books about him for eight years now and it didn't have much of an impact which brings me to my second point - his level of dementia is tightly correlated to that of his base, so when he speaks to them, it's like farting into a sewer..
#Maddow listing all the republican horrors going on in every state. Fuuuuuuuuuck. We are so screwed. Unless Dems get control of the white house and congress. #Biden2024
Skolarus …was reluctant to take #voters off the rolls in a presidential #election year. But records indicate that nearly all of the voters had their registrations canceled, while others were flagged as “challenged” — meaning they would have to give additional info or verify their address before they could vote.
In one webinar, [the Check My Vote developer] Vetter said he considered those restrictions progress: “Then you can’t vote until that gets corrected.”
In January, Michigan’s secretary of state demanded that Markee reinstate all the #voters who had not confirmed that they had moved. In a recent interview, Markee said she was still in discussions about the matter.
“They found this loophole in the state of #Michigan,” she said. “We have to follow the #law.” [The MI statute the activists cited gives “guidelines”]
