  1. MAN, THE LYIN' CHEATIN' MEDIA REALLY HAS IT IN FOR THE BIG DUNCE. The outrage machine is peaking!
  2. Kurt Andersen, writer and co-founder of Spy Magazine - https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/08/rfk-jr-endorse-trump-execute-drug-dealers/679597/
  3. Source was Josh Friedman, a journalist on bsky but I don't see it covered elsewhere.
  4. ActBlue says Dems raised more than $100 million during the convention—$7.2 million during the single hour of Harris’s acceptance speech and just after (11 p.m. to midnight ET). (via Sam Stein, MSNBC). (Just counts small donors -- $250 and under -- through the ActBlue platform.)
  5. At this point that's pretty much the only hope.
  6. Probably just a WAG. I think they guesstimated based on Kennedy's rising approval rating among republicans, while he's declined among democrats. Just a guess.
  7. I don't believe these numbers. Not for a minute. But the entire Bobby K episode is funny/sad/infuriating, and results in a big zero.
  8. fyi/fwiw Kerstin Emhoff is a film producer and co-founded a production company. She produced the video shown at the convention about Doug and narrated by Cole.
  9. Sticking point in whether Kennedy will endorse Diaper Don: He needs to apologize for the one reasonable thing he did in his 4 year term, probably by accident.
  10. This is absurd. Another fascist Trump judge. Should be useful at the debate though. Next up: Missiles. https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-judge-tosses-machine-gun-possession-case-calls-ban-unconstitutional-2024-08-23/
  11. If you have extra to donate and would like an efficient way to spend it on swing state and "tossup" races to help re-take the House and other key offices, check out this site set up by the guy behind @ lolgop. The links and funds go directly to Act Blue so you can be certain it's both legit and effective. https://www.erlywrm.com/get-down These are what your choices look like:
  12. He lies 2x per minute on average. If they were to fact-check verbally the moderator would take up probably 4x the combined time of the candidates. That's why the advice is to follow-up anything he says with, "That's nuts" or something similar that's mocking, and then move on to her response.
  13. US DOJ is going after a Harlan Crowe-founded business, which he later sold to incredibly shitty and unethical PE firm, Thoma Bravo. It's software designed to enable price fixing among large-scale housing owners. A Diaper Don DOJ would never even examine such a thing. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/23/business/economy/realpage-doj-antitrust-suit-rent.html https://archive.ph/7Ar84
  14. Amanda Marcotte of Salon, who also attended the RNC convention, on the DNC:
  15. Didn't know about her involvement but this is a bit interesting...
  16. Fact-check on the portion of Kamala Harris' speech relating to Ukraine.
  17. Warren's best imo: Trump “has no plans to lower costs for families. He doesn’t know how, and he doesn’t really care. When did he ever fill up a gas tank or worry about a grocery bill? The only bills he worries about are from his criminal defense lawyers.” Diaper Don promises more unhinged ranting tonight.
  18. If you're watching on some cable news channel and not the live feed from the DNC without commercials, or interruptions from talking heads, what are you even doing?
  19. The line of thought used to be 10 percent were bad and making the rest of the cops look bad. At some point in the past 20ish years those numbers seem to have dramatically converged.
  20. Not the point. Any violation of law would have been the Sheriff's, not Trump's.
  21. Schedule https://demconvention.com/events/main-programming-4/
  22. Dateline: Livingston County, MI more at https://michiganadvance.com/2024/08/22/trumps-howell-event-was-a-blatant-violation-of-michigan-campaign-law-dem-lawyer-says/
  23. Seems suspicious? The Undercut.
  24. So you haven't smelled them?
  25. Ditto. Not even a majority of Israelis support Netanyahu and his policies. Apparently they're bad Jews, too.
