A cardiac arrest at the age of 49. Resulting in brain damage and sever vision problems. Also possible.

Jon Stewart once said the media are like 6-year-olds playing soccer, always chasing the ball. If they see Project 2025 all over social media, they’ll chase after it. Flood the zone.

A reminder that if Trump wins & purges the civil service to replace it with loyalists as planned, all sorts of govt data will become totally untrustworthy. The House GOP is already trying to rig the census to screw Democrats in redistricting after Trump's first-term attempt failed

That’s a little unfair. Biden is trying to deal with NYTimes trying to sabotage him, a few in his party doing the same, and trying to overcome the onslaught from the right about everything he does. Not to mention traveling to Europe for a NATO summit.

I am so disgusted with them, I cancelled my subscription after over a decade. Their Biden bashing and insane op-ed from the guy who claimed he didn’t vote and neither should you was outrageous.

I cancelled immediately after they published that dreck by right winger whose article was “I don’t vote, and neither should you”. Outrageous.

Slashing methane is a major climate win from Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act. It’s $850 million (6% of EPA budget!) for “projects that help track — and stop — methane leaks tied to oil and gas production.” This would’ve a been career-defining win a decade ago. Now it’s Monday after holiday weekend.

When they published that dreck right winger article on why he wasn’t voting and neither should you, it was clear that they were just a rag intent on helping the republicans and their wealthy friends get DJT back into the White House. I stopped reading it and so should we all.

That “I’m not voting and neither should you” bs in the New York Times the other day was by a well-known right winger in the mode of Steve Bannon. It was malpractice.

If the Dems are smart, They'll try to get abortion rights on as many state ballots as possible. Sadly, we're too busy trying to destroy the nominee.

The clearest difference between the two parties is that one comes to the courthouse dressed alike at their guy’s felony trial in support of their sleeping giant while the other spends weeks in panic over one bad night against a known demagogue

Good-ish news, but I still suspect this election will be decided more on the issues, like abortion rights and democracy. Hope I’m not whistling past the graveyard

Of course, he has stuttered since childhood, and they called him gaffe-prone when he was 37. So, where’s the decline? Meanwhile, the Times hasn’t published a single article on Trump’s latest gaffes and obvious decline or his worsening fluent aphasia.

I've been on a rollercoaster since last Thursday. I feel like a loved one has been diagnosed with a terrible, usually fatal illness. I came late to Biden, but feel like he has exceeded expectations. I don't want give up after 1 no good bad day. But i don't want to be in denial.

NEWS --> Mark Robinson, the MAGA extremist GOP nominee for governor in North Carolina, appeared to endorse political violence against unnamed foes in a recent speech.

"Some folks need killing!" he shouted. "It's a matter of necessity!"

US adds 160,000 jobs in June, unemployment steady, rising only from
4.0 to 4.1.
To paraphrase Joy Reid, I’d vote Biden, even if he were in a coma to stop the trump cult.

From your typing fingers to God’s eyes. I’m afraid the maga will be able to suppress just enough votes to help them win.

Trump always telegraphs his intentions. Believe what he says, before it’s too late for all of us.

Voting for Trump is voting to replace soon to be retiring Thomas, Alito, and Roberts with more like Cannon and Kasmerik, where they will rule for the next 30 years.

If you add all their decisions this week together, what the Supreme Court is arguing is that homeless people should stop being homeless by bribing public officials and committing securities fraud.

When Obama did poorly in his first debate with Romney, I don't recall anyone saying he should step down or give up. Stop wetting your beds. Regroup. Organize. Quit bitching. Defeat Trump.
