In case you were wondering if the Harris - Walz campaign staff still has their shit together, Kamala stopped by a Puerto Rican restaurant late this afternoon when she was in Philly.

 

Puerto Rican food is damn good. And yeah, need to get that video out and wide. Translate that shit. It is not just Puerto Ricans. It is how they see all immigrants/non-white people.

And about America is for Americans. Puerto Ricans are Latin Americans. Sorry, I know it is what most use, but I prefer the United States to America. Unless we are counting penguins and polar bears and not just citizens of 1 country.

So not only is Miller a racist, he's also guilty of plagiarism?

What an asshole!

I'm curious, does anyone know of a source for Hitler saying that back in 1934? It's not that I doubt it at all. I just want to be able to back it up when someone says he didn't say that. I've looked, and all that comes up right now is results about today at the rally.

Since we have had a side trip to Chili's I'll be your huckleberry.

Because it's still the best source for breaking news, whether it's political, world, or sports. I've tried the others. Waited around for God knows how long for bluesky to get an invite, threads won't let me disassociate FB from them, and mastodon is barely there. I'll posit that whatever he makes off of me is cut back by the extensive block list that is growing. It's obvious that he isn't making money. He's destroying what he bought. 

There are still some good sources on there. Do I approve of what it has become? Of course not. I don't know of any other place that has the immediate access to news that it has. 

How much money does he actually make off of my being there? How would you be able to quantify it? 

I want to get off but agree about breaking news. Pretty much all I’m looking at are newspapers, reporters, Longhorn stuff and Keith Richards. 
I do have a strategy which is that every time I see an add I block it. Then I block every person that enters my consciousness that I just don’t want to invade my feed. That includes Musk. 
I read somewhere that Musk was complaining about how it costs them money maintaining the blocked list on all accounts. That’s what made me decide to get really generous with blocking. 
It take a lot of effort to have a sane experience. I’d love to move somewhere else if they had the coverage. 
In fact, I messaged DelConte about cross posting on Bluesky and he blew me off.

I’m not sure it’s an actual quote. 
 

Google kicks up the following link to a speech that, if you substitute ‘immigrant’ for ‘Jew,’ you get pretty stark parallels. But nothing quite so simple or on-the-nose.

You don't need an invite to join bluesky anymore. Any email address to register will do. The site has become pretty awesome. There's apps to help you easily find anyone on there you follow at twitter. You'll probably want to follow a lot more people on bluesky than you do at twitter because there's nothing pushing stuff into your feed. Although there are feeds of many types that you can also follow. People post starter packs with a bunch of suggested follows - they have them for most professions. The video is excellent. There's not a ton of sports but I get that here, and also they just rolled out video like a month ago so the numbers are growing. There could be more journalists but there's a lot and the numbers there are also growing. It's a lot larger of a user base than it may appear at first, just follow a lot of people if you like a very busy timeline. 

edit - also each user has a block button for users that annoy you and it's nuclear as in it turns them into vapor you'll never see or hear from again.

Pretty sure that Trump-Musk-MAGA-fascist Nazi rally puts the lie to the wise ole Surly lawyers telling us the legal system works, albeit slowly. Lulz. Trump, a Nazi fascist, is walking all over the legal system. 

I'll believe it when I see it ... if any legal justice is served to Trump and the Jan 6 ringleaders.

Sorry, but I always thought the Surly law dogs couldn't see the towering fast-growing fascist forest for the trees.... they are too busy discussing the lawful and most appropriate use of a chainsaw that meets all forestry specifications.

I hope once Kamala works this fool she leans real deep into her prosecutorial roots to lay waste to the leaders of this movement. 
 

We all know a big reason Trump is running is to save his own neck from all his criming but some of these folks like Elmo who have jumped so hard into the cult since she came on the scene are now probably a lot more worried about their own necks than they ever would have been with Biden. I’ll be pretty disappointed if President Harris DOJ doesn’t quickly go read fucking hard in the paint.

@Brisketexan 

I dunno man this seems like a strawman argument but maybe there's some other thread you've been reading that I don't know about. It's pretty stunning how the US Supreme Court has demeaned itself by corrupting the law over the past 10 years in more ways than you likely understand. But I don't know or haven't seen a lawyer on this site who's had their eyes closed to what's been going on. I'm sure Brisket knows more of the attorneys here than I do.

trump can never keep a secret, he always has to blab. hence tonight ... 'I think with our little secret we are gonna do really well with the house, our little secret is having a big impact, he and I have a little secret, we will tell you what it is when the race is over'

 

why try to go to the R gov's and the Courts, when the house can possibly be your silver bullet. House R's are much much cheaper to buy off. Especially with Elon's money.

I’ve been saying the opposite. There is no way that any other citizen other than Trump would have been allowed to obfuscate, lie, file frivolous pleadings and just generally frustrate the system.  I have tried cases in several different states. Been in and out of all kinds of state and federal courthouses. I was aggressive, no doubt. Pushed things as far as I thought I could get away with. But, I can say without doubt, that I would have suffered significant consequences if I had even approached the level of behavior exhibited from Trump and his lawyers. 
I have been “hometowned”. The crap that went on with the documents case and the Supreme Court is a lot more than getting the benefit of the doubt on close judgment calls.
