OMG I just love it when people portray GOP politicians perfectly.
Every picture of JD Vance looks like he's about to deliver a sermon about how he was "redeemed by Christ" after he got caught sexting a 15-year old when he was a youth-group volunteer.

Apparently "DEI hire" has become the new "affirmative action hire." Of course, in addition to being an unrepentant racist, Boebert is no doubt jealous of genuinely educated and accomplished women of color who aren't compelled to act like drunken, horny teenagers in theaters.
Lauren Boebert is a high school dropout. I don't say this to shame people who don't finish their education. But it helps underscore how all the chitter chatter about "DEI" has nothing to do with merit. It's just a racial slur. www.salon.com/2024/07/05/b...
Boebert's "DEI hire" remark towards Karine Jean-Pierre causes blowbackwww.salon.com The Colorado rep., who obtained a GED in 2020, called the Columbia grad and first Black press secretary a DEI hire.

also and I feel like I buried the lede here: it calls for the people who CREATE queer media to be imprisoned. That'd be people like me. Or any other queer creator you love. Any queen who's been on drag race. Chappel Roan. Janelle Monae. Anyone who's made a piece of queer media. Imprisoned.
Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

CNN calls out Biden's inaccuracies, but not Schlump's countless lies. Should they forthwith be referred to as the Clocksucking News Network? (And get the L outta there!)

MORE STORIES ABOUT BIDEN'S GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENTS! WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY? Don't answer that.
unlocked "Biden will unveil a new plan in NV today to cap rental prices nationally, calling on Congress to pass a bill to give landlords the option to cap rent increases in existing units at 5% or risk losing fed tax breaks, while also repurposing fed land in NV to build affordable housing units."
Biden to unveil plan to cap rents as GOP convention beginswapo.st The policy plan comes as the president tries to assure Democrats about the viability of his candidacy.

Here's the deal: WTH is wrong with potential of having President Harris if God forbid something happens to Biden? In voting for Biden/Harris as a SOLID BLOC, we have little to lose. It's actually the path toward victory. #VoteBidenHarris #DemsUnitedBehindBiden #StandByBiden #ReelectPresidentBiden

And this is, no doubt, an incomplete list.

I still can't imagine ANY woman being OK with complete government control over her body, even in cases of unfortunate miscarriages. I don't give a shit about polls--I keep wondering if there's a "secret" population of GOP women who'll vote for their freedom. But I could be wrong.

Calling all SkyPosters: ISO a poster who has long thread using boxing metaphor for Democrats. I started to read, got distracted by other posts, leading me hither and yon, and I lost him. I think said poster is a former boxer...? Anyhoo, if you can lead me back, I'd greatly appreciate it! TIA.

Schlump has been a violent asshole for decades. In NYC, we knew he was a rapist (before Carroll) & about his psycho fantasies. In all these years, making civilized people want to puke, he's yet to be held accountable. Why is this race even close? Seems about half of America is horribly fucked up.
Trump has been inciting violence for years. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

All Dems should be as smart and committed as AOC.
Too bad the Dem leadership is not this smart.

Welp, just saw a preview clip, and Lester Holt has proved that he's an asshole, as well. Zeroing in on a common phrase and not letting go. However, Biden's responses were spot on. The media are really for the most part fucking Nazis complicit in destroying democracy. 🤬

I have an existing but inactive account on X (don't ask). Nancy Pilosi tweeted a sympathetic statement, and I'm sure you can imagine the kinds of sick, twisted, violent, and demented replies she received. This is but one reason that I'm here and not there.

If this had, God forbid, happened to Biden, you can bet yr precious ass that Schlump & Rethugs wld be celebrating/cheering abt how he deserved it & Dems caused it, etc. etc. That fucking Orange Turd advocated violence against Hillary, mocked attack on Pelosi's husband. TAKE OFF THE GLOVES, DEMS!

I'll just let this poster speak for herself. Does it speak for me? Uh, can I take the Fifth? 😶
Spare me the pearl-clutching, Trump worshippers. Your golden calf has been spewing hate & filth for years. You reap what you fucking sow. The day that fuck dies there'll be dancing in the streets from sea to shining sea. You bet your ASS for once I wish he was just a little farther to the right.
