I hope you still vote for him if he doesn't drop out bc T and his admin would be a disaster. If Joe doesn't make it through another term Kamala is very capable of stepping in :)

True. Whatever happens vote for whoever is on the ticket. Too much chaos talk about Joe staying in or Joe stepping down

Wow that is a stupid idea. Also if Biden steps down we already have a candidate and her name is Kamala. She's doing better in recent polls, she's smart and quite capable of leading this country. Also she'd be able to Judge Judy Trump's ass in a debate

super interesting to me that Harris doesn’t just do better than Biden here but does better than most of the floated alternatives www.cnn.com/2024/07/02/p...

Stop House Republicans from suing Merrick Garland for the audio recording of Joe's interview with a special counsel in his classified documents case. We know T will stop all lawsuits that involve him

Good morning, and this.

I know it's grim, but think of three things you can do today to combat this. Have you picked out Senators to adopt yet? Can you phone bank?

Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office. There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.

I wish the ppl who worked in Trump admin, esp in defense and nat'l security, who've said he's a threat to democracy and unfit to be president would go on cable news/social media every day and ring some gd alarm bells to wake this country up on the threat of another T term! Jhc

If he does drop out I would have no problem voting for Kamala. Joe's awful debate doesn't wipe out all the badness of Trump

I agree. Also it's hard to fight back against a Gish galloping serial liar. There were so many lies, overwhelming. Biden definitely wasn't ready for that tactic

John Oliver does the best policy explainers. This is why I was excited to talk to Last Week Tonight's producers about the effects of Schedule F on government.

Watch the segment, and read more about this attack on public services:

This lawyer keeps insisting the Ten Commandments were a very, very important part of the founding but offers zero proof (because there is none) He finally says, well, Moses is on the SCOTUS building -- built in the 1930s! -- and yes, he's there, but so are Muhammed, Confucious, Hammurabi ....

If you want to know what the Founders thought about the proper role of religion in government, they left us an owner's manual. It's called the Constitution. It only refers to religion three times, and every time, it makes it clear that the Founders wanted it far removed from the government.

You'll do fine. I had one almost 3-1/2 years ago :) My dogs pulled me down hard on a walk when I wasn't paying attention. Squirrel! I don't walk both dogs at same time anymore

And they have the nerve to accuse schools of pushing left leaning views on kids. I guess brainwashing them with right wing crap is fine though

Loving the retweets and likes on this! Would love it even more if folks would actually click and read it. You may think you "know" what it says, but I promise, I go deeper.

But also it's not long! Easy to read, but in-depth.

As @crew.bsky.social's Donald Sherman and Diamond Brown wrote in the Grio: "Ethical governance requires a commitment to transparency, fairness, and equal representation." Disbanding the House Office of Diversity and Inclusion is a step backwards.
