  1. You slept on it, then woke up feeling even better about Kamala Harris at 3:27 AM. They must have you working in shifts.
  2. I agree, but I think we're there. Early voting starts in 61 days, on Sept 20th. Voter registrations start closing about a week after that. With 106 days left until the last legitimate election any of may ever see, the Democrats are somehow behind for President, House and Senate. Fullcourt press on Project 2025 from here on out is our best play. Thanks to badasses like Taraji P. Henson, Project 2025 is really close to breaking out into widespread public knowledge. Our best shot to win is to accelerate that. I'm not worried about it being too early. If we can get people to realize Trump and the GOP means no birth control, no abortion, no divorce without permission, higher taxes, higher prescriptions drug prices, unlimited mouse shit in your cereal, fuck the environment and Palestine, along with Christofascists in your kids classrooms and your bedroom, that's something they'll remember through this election.
  3. Obama is so fucking frustrating. He shouldn't endorse anyone yet, but he should have been in front of every camera that would put him on talking about the GOP threat to democracy and how whether it's Biden/Harris/Any other Dem, it doesn't matter. Project 2025, Agenda 47 and the threat a religious radical dominated Supreme Court represents to the American way of life. That matters. Any Democratic presidential candidate represents a vote for democracy and against fascism. That matters. Who that candidate is, does not. Obama is a gifted orator and he could be making a HUGE difference right now, but he has never taken the right wing threat seriously enough. I get the optics as well, but if people think a vote for Biden, or Harris, means Obama is really running things, that probably helps their odds of being elected.
  4. Without DEI, how is anyone going to get a fair shake as a redhead?
  5. I think Biden's stutter is a big factor here that his campaign has done a shit job of staying in front of. Halting speech, word finding issues and losing train of thought are common for someone with a stutter. More specifically, they are common for Joe Biden. He looks worse than before, but under stress and fatigue, stuttering symptoms get markedly worse, and the stakes are currently fascism vs. democracy. CNN not fact checking left Biden with very little time to rebut a firehose of lies, and Biden's advisors tried to have him rebut each one. They should have focused Biden on picking the Trump lie he can work with the most, and rebutting that one lie thoroughly each time. Biden's advisors stupidly ran him ragged in debate prep, cramming useless facts for a debate that was always destined to turn into an insult-fest. All that created a worst possible case for someone with a stutter and it will have ripple effects for a long time. Every post-debate appearance just got much more high pressure and stress.
  6. Sounds like it's time for an actual forged birth certificate.
  7. Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to live out a metastasized version of it. Those of us who do learn from history have 4 months to make sure our friends and family do as well.

    You keep saying Cannon is making mistakes, that the Supreme Court is making mistakes, but mistakes are things that happen by accident. You are far too intelligent of a poster to not see that all of it is on purpose. It's not remotely subtle. They are barely trying to hide it.
  9. Yep, those SW Monsoons ain't fucking around. When that rain comes down, it comes down in a hurry. Starts raining like Houston with very little warning. Even with normal vegetation and soils, massive amounts of water glance right off the surface into the arroyos. It's so much worse after fires. My heart breaks for the people of Ruidoso. This is a nightmare and monsoon season just got started.
  10. Those uniformed "students of history" don't want to spend that money on the United States either.

    The Supremes

    One thing you can always count on with fascists, they eventually come for you. It's just how far down the list you are, which changes at the whims of the dictator.
  12. Neither Thomas, nor Alito, is actually that powerful. They are known corrupted votes, locked in by corruption and batshit. You can look at any case and already know exactly how they will rule based on their feels. The power belongs to Roberts, Barrett, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. They pretend to be non-biased by taking turns siding with the liberal justices. Fuck they. Yes, but those were RINO Republicans. If we just got some real Texas patriots in there, you'd see a power grid the likes of which, no one has ever seen.
  13. Vampires don't have a reflection. After Biden's first answer, Trump asked Tapper if he could respond, Tapper said he was going to ask Trump a question, but Trump could say whatever he wanted.
  14. Yes, but like always, they are going to decide the election.
  15. can’t use section (b) because can’t prove intentionally or prove abandon and hard to prove care, custody, or control Agree you can't prosecute them, since the Supreme Court says they don't have a duty to protect, but it's pretty easy to demonstrate they intentionally abandoned the kids to an "unreasonable risk of harm".
  16. He's a troll. He understands perfectly well that Trump has been accused of it, that's WHY he's accusing Biden of it.
  17. Biden has always had a bit of old white guy Teflon to him. I think his team is too afraid of right wing "media" taking him out of context, but being passive lets right wing "media" set the narrative even harder. Dark Brandon is best Brandon.
