  1. I'm not being argumentative just want to point out it doesn't matter what their sheeple want. We saw that in 2016. A lot of people voted for Trump thinking he meant what he was saying when he tried to portray that he'd have a moderate administration. If he gets back in office the extreme right wing will be rolling out every item on their wish list and Diaper Don will be happily claiming credit for it. Their base is a bunch of idiots who will support anything Diaper Don does.
  2. That's Jake Sherman so this is a MSNBC screen grab
  3. Yes she was thinking on the fly, probably self-censored as she realized calling hard-core republican men "neanderthals" would cause her trouble.
  4. One thing about DIA is it's actually, officially DEN.
  5. Things go Kamala's way and the SCOTUS is gonna get fucked the hell up.
  6. MSNBC: Neil Young sued Trump to stop him using "Keep On Rocking In The Free World" at his rallies but gave permission to use it tonight as a Walz anthem. Walz personally selected the tune. edit - old news apparently a few posts up
  7. https://www.youtube.com/@aoneal4143
  8. The Compact would also likely require Congress to pass a law.
  9. Ted's neighbors intentionally set off his security alarm when he leaves town. They dump their leaves on his front yard. They slide the garbage man a twenty dollar bill to skip his house.
  10. Tim is the kind of person who'd make your day better just by running into him on the sidewalk for a quick hello. His wife, too. Love them.
  11. edit - @TexEx15beat me to it
  12. This was published this morning. https://www.the-downballot.com/p/morning-digest-republicans-are-starting based on
  13. He's performing with Sheila E. Which reminds me of this video from about a year ago.
  14. @Anastasisplease read this and tell me if you feel seen. New terminally online archetype just dropped: the Peripheral Progressive. You won’t find them door knocking, participating in legitimate political activity or lobbying for concrete policy changes. No, the Peripheral Progressive is a different animal altogether. They thrive by taking the moral high ground rather than achieving practical results.Whatever it is, they’re against it. It's written by Joan Westenberg.
  15. edit Julia Louis-Dreyfuss hosted a panel discussion today with Democratic women governors https://www.youtube.com/live/xZnvchAkDZo
  16. Speaking/performance schedule was released about 50 minutes ago. https://pastebin.com/7C4zu1MP edit - Oprah is a late add performances - John Legend & Shiela E; Stevie Wonder; Amanda Gorman; Maren Morris
  17. What is going on here? Wait, I mean what is the idiot attempting to talk about now?
  18. I watched Doug Emhoff's speech for a second time because it was so good and so strategic, but also highly relatable, for me at least.
  19. Trump's former Press Sec's speech was just 2 minutes and packed a punch. "I wasn't just a Trump supporter, I was a TRUUUUE Believer," she began. article https://archive.ph/RobGO
  20. Each day's official schedule has been published sometime around 1pm, give or take 45 minutes. edit - meaning times and the full list of speakers. Tonight is Buttigieg and Bill Clinton. Oh and Pelosi and Walz!
  21. Yeah I was thinking about first time convention watchers earlier this morning. There's never been a political convention anything like this. They're typically dreadfully boring with an exciting speech at the most. Their team put together not only a great night at the DNC on the most difficult and boring of nights (state roll call) but packed an arena all the way in Milwaukee where the candidates appeared. Yes they've been doing great. As @Tucopointed out it seemed spontaneous. From a messaging standpoint I'd prefer it be a positive message. During Michelle's speech last night, the spontaneous chant was, "Do Something." The audience is energized and looking to participate. I listened to KH last night in Mwk and to my ears, "Not going back" was heard too often...I'm already tired of it and I just worry she would benefit from a different rallying cry. All due deference to her incredible campaign team...they have been absolutely amazing so far.
  22. Just saw this pic from the other day. JD's confused by wiz.
