Hey President Joe Biden are you listening? I’m voting for you because you were the best candidate in 2020 and delivered results for the country 4 years later. I’m voting for you and a blue congress to finish the job. Thank you. #voteblue

What Republican senators have assembled a group to ask Trump to exit the race? Not one. No one? Huh? A felon, a rapist, owes millions to NY state. Not one.

Mark Warner and group take note: when your back is to the wall that’s when the fight begins. Get in it or get run over. #BidenHarris2025

This is the result of the Gentlemen’s agreement among the rich “founding fathers “ with a few exceptions who could never imagine their new country could be usurped by future generations not similar to them.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Yes, it’s the old Democrat playbook dump your seated candidate at the last hour instead of fighting the opposition to the ground

Yes, the Stevens, Miller and Bannon, Mnuchin and Jared the son-in-law and his wife Ivanka loved selling off democracy piece by piece and are eager to get their old jobs back to continue their work to make America fascist for their benefit.

Monday, July 1, was a busy day. That morning the Supreme Court handed down a decision in Donald J. Trump v. United States that gives the president absolute immunity for committing crimes while engaging in official acts.

I'll say it again. Replacing Joe Biden is conceding the election to Donald J Trump. The Democratic Party will be defeated in detail and will deserve it. If The Democratic Party is so rotten through and through that personal ambition rules, they should be rebuilt

Because of the Women’s Bank of Los Angeles, I, a member of the Board of Directors of Women In Film in 1977, and every member of Women In Film were able to obtain Credit Cards on our own. No male guardian signatures required. This new economic asset was essential to our financial independence.

This is #1 in my case for cautious optimism. It continues: 2) Biden up big with people who vote every time, Trump up big with randos. 3) Dems have an actual field game. RNC is now a Trump org. 4) Better the Biden is old as dirt cycle now, the Trump is a senile rapist pig you hate looking at in Oct.

It’s the rich against the rest of us. How many republicans running for office have been rich in recent years? How do people not see the party represents the rich? Our interests & the interests of the rich DO NOT coincide. Ergo, they do not represent us. Fiscal conservatism has always been a scam.

This from @atrupar.bsky.social on The Bad Place.

However one feels about the ultimate question on the table, the pace and frenzy with which this discourse around whether a sitting president should step aside/down because of a singular event (that embodies a larger issue) is mind-blowing.

It’s truly unimaginable for Obama because there were no Obama felonies or scandals other than once being seen wearing “mom jeans” but what just happened at the SC is also unimaginable and unacceptable.

100% in agreement. What should be coming out of the White House is: "We have a lot of work to do and that includes fixing SCOTUS. We can't do that without control of the House, Senate & WH so get off your asses and motivate the masses. I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message."

But his billionaire supporters are not stupid they are greedy and don’t care if the country becomes fascist because they think it won’t affect them.

For years the idiot cultists have been threatening civil war. Now it seems that the left, America's actual patriots, need to take matters into their own hands. At the very least SCOTUS, which has no enforcement powers, needs to be completely ignored.

Vote this motherfucker and the entire GOP into oblivion. We are straight up in a war for this country. Voting is our main weapon. You're either for democracy or you're for dictatorship. Vote accordingly and know that not voting is a vote for dictatorship.

Rep Lloyd Doggett (his real name) who looks like death warmed over, just demanded Biden resign for not defending the Biden administration accomplishments during the debate. Guess Lloyd failed to watch or read the transcript.

It’s really a social media thing. Just checked my local bulletin board, people are preparing a fundraiser for the dog rescue, a fish fry Saturday. Info for treating Scorpion and snake bites, anti-snake venom. A celebration of life for a 90 year old neighbor’s life. No government politics, just life.

I'd propose that Biden order the army to arrest and detain the 6 justices who rewrote the constitution, and the guy who tried to overthrow the election. Core pres duty, protection of the Constitution. Suspend habeas corpus. He's the president, after all. Release them after a week, see how it went.
