Raphael Warnock is the only politician who gets a STANDING monthly moneybucks donation from me. Everyone else gets when and where I feel like it, but Warnock earned my month contribution.
THAT'S MY SENATOR!!!!!
(Edit: Wonkette does too, but y'all are snark, not an individual politician.)
Mallory McMorrow Superfan since she put out her first EP! Michigan better damned not go MAGA this time...C'mon, y'all know better. You're my favorite state, especially if you include Chicago. Get on out and vote.
The biggest problem in states like Michigan aren’t people who undecided between Harris or Trump. It’s people who are undecided between voting or not voting. Turnout is going to save this election.
With this talk of making lists, there are distinct odors of the Klan and Tailgunner Joe all about these folks from Lee County, NC (not named for the denim brand.)
"I got a picture of state Sen. Mallory McMorrow, because, quote, she’s a big fucking deal."
With StSen. McMorrow, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D, Tx), and Anderson Clayton (NC Demo Chair), I'm liking the young women of the Democratic party. I'm sure there are others I should've named.
That's a fantastic event! Detroit is definitely a happening place. I've honestly liked it each time I've been there; even when I first visited in 2001.
> Exclusive video shows leader of a North Carolina "election integrity" activist group describe a strategy for identifying "suspicious" voters for post-election challenges.
Quite a few of the people with Hispanic sounding last names that I work with are white. All the people with Hispanic sounding names I work with are republicans planning on voting for Trump. So…great plan, no unintended consequences at all.
Love for all Americans -- shouldn't that be a prerequisite for presidenting? It takes extortion, revenge, and hurting your constituents for own personal gain right out of the equation.
Ask yourself, Joe: which potential president (and there are only two) will afford progressive causes a better path to move forward? It's Harris or Trump, no other options in the Reality Based world. You know the answer, and a vote for anyone but the Dems will take us backwards.
Which is why I’m voting for Harris - as I’ve said many times. (In fact, my wife may have mailed in my ballot already. I should check with her.)
But her continuing to claim that Israel is “defending itself” is a lie, a disgrace, and jeopardizing her election chances - so I’m going to keep complaining about it.
Ok, thanks for the response. I have been here more sporadically over the last year or so, and I’ve missed any support you’ve shown for Harris.
She’s not perfect. Dems are far from perfect. But if we’re going to move forward on this, she’s the best bet.
fwiw, I doubt we’ll move very far forward, and that breaks my heart. I wish we would, but I doubt it will happen. But any movement forward will be better than what we’d get with the Tyrant Toddler at the helm.
Just to bring things up to date: my wife informs me that she has *not* sent in my ballot yet, while waiting for some registration issue to be cleared up with hers.
But judging from the amount of Harris merch she’s ordered - including a Shep Fairey style “Cats for Kamala” flag - I doubt she’s going to let it slip.
Awesome. Vote Stein. Or just go full on Trump. You know you want to. You won't be effected.
Always remember to get the names of the people who will be martyrs to your cause to add to the memorials in the future. You can pretend to be shocked they died for your purity.
What I respect about your side is that, for the most part, you aren’t bothering to pretend that Harris has a super-seekrit plan to stop the genocide that she can’t even hint at yet. You’re just puffing your chests out that genocide is a fact of life that it’s ponies and unicorns to expect a Democratic president to do anything about.
What I loathe about your side is that you can't see there is no secret plan. None of the ones fighting want to stop and the US snapping it's fingers isn’t going to change that. It’s worth consigning women, POC. and anyone queer in this country to the firestorm that’s going to come because there’s no easy solution.
So what’s your endgame for it. How do you get that endgame to happen. Step up and lay out the plan you clearly have.
You cheered when Biden and Blinken made no progress with negotiations early on because the Dems are bad. You cheered as deals made by Biden and Blinken were scuttled later because Dems are bad. You bitched that they didn’t make any progress early on because Dems are bad. You support and amplify antisemitic people because they say Dems are bad. It’s almost like the common thread is Dems are bad.
Nothing has changed since the last time you tried this bully-boy imperative tense act - except a lot of Palestinians burned alive in tents outside one of the few hospitals Israel hasn’t destroyed yet.
We stop shipping arms to Israel until they stop committing human rights violations - as required by the Leahy laws, as both Carter and Reagan successfully threatened Israel with, and as called for by Bernie, AOC, and the publisher of this website:
My problem with it is that's it's against the law. Isreal aid is fully funded through 2028. That's the law. That's why simplistic magic wand waving doesn't work.
Ta, Dominic. Wonderful photo essay, as always. Of course, the five young Black men were innocent. GOTV and VOTE!!

Mallory and Trix, I love smart women leaders.

I love Senator Warnock!

"Election protection" activist says he plans to flag voters with "Hispanic-sounding" names as "suspicious" - CBS News

How about we flag people with stupid faces as "suspicious"?
People with guns. They're the real troublemakers.
Them boys just get a little het up, that's all.
Eliminationist, racist fascist movement to the core.
All the "Hispanic-sounding" names of the people I work with on my nursing unit - are all hard-working American Citizen Filipino nurses.
Hah! I was just thinking about that linguistic crossover!
Madre de dios...
Nothing to see here, move along...
Jesus? You're making me cross!

I am going to enjoy watching Detroit Rock City collectively telling Drumpfenfuehrer to take a flying fuck on November 5.
Fuck... nap time?
“Ladies, If you’re single and a man asks for your phone number,” Warnock said, “Tell him you’ll write on the back of his voter registration card.”
(insert vigorous applause gif here)
If I was a republican bot, I sense an opportunity to sell “replica” voter registration cards for the dating market😉.
Queen Rebekah looks good!
One more reason to love Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell lets rip at Donald Trump at rarity-laden US concert
She tore down Donald Trump and put up a paradise
Wow!
Full set list here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/joni-mitchell/2024/hollywood-bowl-los-angeles-ca-3bab90b8.html
I'm bawling my eyes out just reading that 2nd set list...
Joni Mitchell and Annie Lennox. That would be a sound.
I lost count of my reasons to love Joni Mitchell. I have so many I couldn't even get them home in a big yellow taxi.
Pressing hard in Michigan.

If you have a problem with that plan, tough shit.
My problem with it is that's it's against the law. Isreal aid is fully funded through 2028. That's the law. That's why simplistic magic wand waving doesn't work.
You knew that, right?
The Leahy laws are laws.
If you can cite anything showing that they cannot supercede previously authorized funding, have at it.
