Semi-Retired and WOKE. Unusual for SC… Graduated HS in ‘71, too late to be drafted for Vietnam. I am concerned about climate change and equality along with responsible and legit government.

Biden should simply and clearly ASK Americans to read the wikipedia article on Project 2025 - but he won’t.

Impeaching the court does not require crimes - according to the Constitution. However it is unclear if 60% are needed. The traitors running the house will not vote to impeach the traitor judge.

Biden’s FIRST press conference in TWO YEARS!!! Any wonder we are wondering if he can do the job?? Any wonder he’s BEHIND in the polls? Where were his people? Oh, the same people that didn’t have him RESTING days before the debate.

The Stakes are High – for us! They knew that if Biden withdrew from the election we would lose, but they were willing to sacrifice us and frankly I don’t give a damn what their motives were. Unlike them, we don't have the protection of their money

One of the most heartbreaking moments in this 2016 interview with Katie Johnson, who says she was repeatedly raped by Donald Trump at the age 13, is the point at which she explains why she's going public with her story. "

There are now 150 voting and election cases pending in 39 states. 62 of them are from Republicans trying to restrict your right to vote. Whatever else is going on, please don't ignore the GOP's escalating attacks on free and fair elections.

Thanks to you guys for taking this action- it is THE ONLY WAY (per Constitution) to fix this problem. Too bad the house is led by insurrectionists.

In other words, the corporate media is doing its job, which is to serve the interests of the ruling class, not to provide the public with factual news and analysis.

“Trump had trouble saying the words synagogue, feared, NATO, and hospital, and could barely put the words together when trying to attack Biden’s cognitive abilities. This is more proof that the media should examine Trump’s broken brain.”

This is so true. I’ll never forget in 2008, seeing a white supremacist crying on the news after Obama’s election. He said “we used to BE somebody.” They miss the days when the mere fact of being white made them “better,” more important, than everyone else

His lack of understanding is one of two reasons he won’t mention Project 2025. The other is that he is afraid it might lose him some fence-sitters, but his Agenda 47 (all trump) is equally appalling.

Trump is not smart enough to actually read Project 2025, so he created his Agenda 47 which is little more than a listing of his rally riffs, in semi-formal video format with transcriptions (because he can’t sit down and write it out).

Seven times between 1801 and 1869 Congress changed the size of the court, going from a low of five justices in 1801 to a high of ten in 1863. In most of those cases, as in 1801 and 1863, the size went up and down in order to fix an imbalance or overreach by the Supreme Court. My latest
