Semi-OT, glad to be seeing more of VP Harris. Early in this administration, it kind of felt like they were keeping VP Harris in a Tupperware container somewhere.
It's kinda a cool mob name though for somebody to show up for the PAB's mob trial. Heyyyyy, Joey! The judge here is fuckin' bustin' my balls here, man, after my fuckin' consigliere ratted me out.
"[SCOTUS] on Monday declined to hear an appeal from plaintiffs, including state Sen. Dennis Linthicum, the leading Republican candidate for secretary of state, in a case that sought to overturn the method Oregon voters have used to vote in every election for decades."
A third of Congress couldn't put on their ass in the morning if it wasn't attached and they're voted in during the primaries by low-information, emotion-driven voters that need a mental health intervention.
I still think this is why Trump's ramped down his campaign efforts. They've got the people in place to sidestep the annoying voters and just elect him via 'technicalities'.
"I use the laws to my advantage" remains one of the more chilling utterances from 2016.
Please talk me down from the ledge. I'm worried again about this November. I verified that I'm registered to vote, but it isn't enough. Guess I've got to do more.
Keep checking that registration monthly. Talk to as many reasonable people as you can about voting. You may be surprised how great an influence you can have if you point out demonstrably beneficial things the administration has done. You can get a little personal and discuss how someone's life is better or worse the last 4-8 years. Avoid being defensive (not easy, I failed two days ago) and try to be encouraging.
There is a lot for all of us to do but just getting someone to consider your views is huge. Most aren't as well informed as we are and are getting a warped and biased view from whatever mainstream media they consume, plus false narratives and equivalencies from people in their lives.
We can do this. We don't want to look back and wish we did more. We beat them in 2020 and we will defeat them even more in 2024.
Ta, Evan.
MVP read TFG for filth repeatedly. No Notes!
Keep on keepin' on, MVP Harris. I know I'll have your back this fall!
Brane Klenzer: Simba wondering why Hamilton couldn't take a single properly framed image after taking thirty-two shots.

If I took 32 shots, there's NOTHING I could properly frame....not even me...
Well, I can frame shots fine but I'm not sufficiently high yet. Even though its 10:30 MST already.

Gary Puckett still insists there's a gap.
Does Young Girl agree?
OT, BTW Joe Pepitone >> Joe Piscopo
There’s washed up, there’s completely washed up, and then there’s Joe Piscopo.
The world treated me as relevant once.... once.--Joe Piscopo, maybe.

You talking about Ben's wife again?
OT but yay!

They will take my Oregon vote by mail ballot out of my COLD DEAD HANDS,
The rest of us: 1
The Ratfuckers: 0
Oh no, State Sen. Dennis Linthicum, are you going to be a little bitch about it and not show up for work like you Oregon Republicans like to do?
He's one of them who was barred from running again.

fwiw, Boquist is a real Qanoner. His emails were insane.
You mean Kamala Harris was doing her job this whole time?!
NO ONE on my local call in shows thinks Biden should be a choice because old, and they're erasing Kamala Harris every time. Depressing

Like his reelection chances, still not anywhere near the “0” it deserves to be.
Don't worry - laundered criminal money will be flowing in to prop it up again for the really big pump and dump.
According to another poster here, 84% of the float (issued stock) is shorted.
Surely that's some kinda record?
Yep
I see Brave Sir Donald Brave Sir Donald ran away from testifying
He's going to claim the judge did not let him testify.
Nuh-uh! He was gonna! It was that darn gagging order. Pobre Donaldo, so oppressed.
Meanwhile, Trump visits the Confederacy.
... Oh, not *that* union? You sure about that?
The Confederacy does hate unions, of course.
(See, e.g., Mercedes workers recently rejecting a union in Alabama.)

I agree. No need to "campaign" when you intend to steal the election.
It's up to US.

Each and every one.
This may be our LAST CHANCE to vote.

IIRC, the French judges didn't fare well in 1791. Just sayin'
For exactly the same reasons.
That’s been the republican plan for generations.
