At least 63 billionaires have now publicly endorsed Trump, hosted a fundraiser for him, or contributed to Trump aligned PACs. Why are they rallying behind him? Tax cuts, mostly. But there's more. The more Trump tears down democracy, the safer the oligarchy becomes. Be warned.

I had the worst week getting any drawing done I've had for months.

I can’t imagine not voting if you are able to do so. That is literally the lowest possible hanging fruit of solidarity and allyship. We are in an era of mass disenfranchisement.

BREAKING: The full Fifth Circuit, on a 13-6 vote, upholds Mississippi’s lifetime ban on voting by those convicted of any of a number of felonies. A prior three-judge panel had held that the ban violates the 8th Amendment. The full court rejected that. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It is very silly, and very dangerous, for anyone to pretend otherwise.

One thing we know now about the mass deportations, the abortion bans, and the executive crimes, which was less clear in 2016, is SCOTUS won't stand in the way.

I've seen a lot of one-offs of people holding these signs, but what is truly chilling is a sea of these being held up by delegates.

In case you missed it this was one of the official signs handed out by the RNC for delegates to wave. Not a joke, not a.i.

The sign literally says "Mass Deportations Now" Bloomberg: "loosely tied to immigration"

The theme of the night is “Make America Strong Once Again.” Speeches and videos played on the screen in the arena are loosely tied to immigration, the conflict in Ukraine and the US’s role on the world stage Latest updates: bloom.bg/rnc2024

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.

This is of course very funny, but it's also an interesting look at how inflation hits products differently. I wouldn't pay much more than $13 for a chintzy decorative lamp these days.

If you meet someone at a bar and you go home with them and their house is decorated like this you know you're gonna die.

Fucking finally

Breaking news: President Biden is finalizing plans to endorse major changes to the Supreme Court in the coming weeks, including proposals for legislation to establish term limits for the justices and an enforceable ethics code, according to two people briefed on the plans.

Biden set to announce support for major Supreme Court changeswww.washingtonpost.com The president has discussed the plans with constitutional scholars and members of Congress in recent weeks.

Still have not gotten over the fact that Trump got shot at by one of his own deranged supporters.

Reminder for no particular reason that no one knows how this election will turn out, no one can foresee how an event today will impact voters’ choices four months from now, and it is still incumbent on all of us to fight fascism and not acquiesce to doom.

This is what AOC and Bernie get for sticking by Biden, and we can debate the policy, but this is a super-tangible win for the left side of the Democratic Party

It’s all 100% masks off at this point, lads.

Judge Cannon went and did it. She has dismissed the stolen documents case against Trump on Clarence Thomas’s (nonsense) appointments clause rationale.

Trump was shot with an AR-15 by a 20yr old registered Republican while protected by Trump Loyalists in the Secret Service. There is literally no part of this story that works for them anymore & they have to spin as fast as they can & move on. This is 100% what it's going to feel like in three months

2024 is such an insane cycle that in three months we’ll all post “Remember when someone tried to shoot Trump? That feels like four years ago!”

Declaring people to be vermin, enemies of the state, or un-human is the sort of language people adopt before they pursue a genocide.

As the OP notes, every time the Democrats lose badly, their instinct is to move rightward.

Just saw someone post that they want Biden to lose by a landslide in order to force the Democratic Party to change What year is it? Because I've seen this same argument against Clinton in 2016 and Gore in 2000 A huge loss WOULD change the party, but probably not in good ways

I really don’t think most people realize just how hard the boot will come down if Trump and the Republicans win the election. Most people have never experienced the totalitarian surveillance state with the power to reach into their homes and minds at will they are telling us is their plan.

I can’t believe that under a system that awards unlimited power to unlimited capital, and unlimited capital to those most willing to exploit others, the side that capital favors more is pure evil and achieves its most despicable aims, and the side that capital favors less is foundering beyond parody

Everybody needs to see this quote, understand that this is what Project 2025 is about, and internalize the fact that this is what the Republican Party is doing. This is not a conspiracy theory from the left. They are saying it out loud. #politics #news

there are a lot of ways for the state to suppress dissident speech. one particularly bad one is by having armed agents of the state stand by and do nothing while partisan-aligned thugs or paramilitary groups beat you because of your speech, and then have the DA decline to prosecute the assaulters.
