  1. OMG. AOC walked the wrong way to get off the stage and had to turn around to find the exit! SHE’S SENILE!
  2. Regarding Mallory McMorrow, I don’t know about the rest of you but this was my introduction to her. Check it out if you haven’t seen it before.
  3. To quote Melanie, “Who gives a fuck about Christmas stuff?”
  4. Don’t believe everything you read on the internet. That’s fake. However, Althea is fellow Minnesotan Al Franken’s favorite Dead tune. And this is his favorite version: https://teachrock.org/video/al-franken-on-althea/ I think this one’s better:
  5. “What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.”
  6. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom three months ago.
  7. James Taylor will be performing. I heard Claire McCaskill say earlier on Deadline White House that she could hear him rehearsing You’ve Got A Friend.
  8. The first female presidential candidate is speaking at the convention where the second female presidential candidate will be nominated. What are they thinking?!?! Fuck off, haters. Don’t like it? Don’t watch. Or better yet, pull that giant stick out of your ass and listen to what she has to say.
  9. Al Gore spoke at the 2004 DNC. John McCain spoke at the 2012 RNC.
  10. I don’t think just one decisive loss would do that. It would help to end the political career of Donald Trump but even that isn’t guaranteed. To force the Republican Party to reform and join the 21st century, I think it’s going to take at least a second Harris/Walz term and maybe even the Dems retaining power in 2032.
  11. Common sense would suggest that they didn’t demonstrate at the RNC because a Republican isn’t president right now. A Democrat is and Joe Biden is the face of American policy wrt Israel. He’s trying to walk a fine line but the truth is that he’s sending a lot of bombs to Israel that they’re using to commit genocide at worst, ethnic cleansing at best. Lets hope the demonstrations remain peaceful. If they do then there’s no reason to assume it will turn off any voters.
  12. Last night I saw orderly, peaceful protests. So you can’t paint them with such a broad brush. They have a point. What Hamas did on Oct 7 was horrific and wrong. What Israel has done since has been worse. Last night I saw a shot of scores of police in simple uniforms, many on bicycles. I didn’t see anyone in riot gear. It looked like they’re trying to maintain a strong presence without being provocative. As long as the protests remain peaceful, it won’t be a big deal. The question is whether there will be a small number of agitators who try to turn it into a spectacle. We’ll have to wait and see about that. If they weren’t protesting “in good faith” last night then I’m not sure what you mean by that.
  13. People have a right to protest. I don’t know why they weren’t also protesting at the RNC. That would’ve made sense. Get the media attention there too. Try to get Trump to address what he would do about innocent Palestinian women and children getting slaughtered by his fellow fascist Bibi.
  14. Maybe he just smells the Doritos. Shit. Sawbonz beat me to it.
  15. I haven’t seen any cops beating upprotesters yet. Until then you can’t say it’s 1968 again (even though the media is beating that message into your head non-stop).
  16. Saw these on the r/pics subreddit. Hadn’t seen them before. Sickening but not surprising.
