Say you're ready to make a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT and will be joined by VP Harris. Brag about all the bridges your infrastructure law has built for 10 minutes and then say the announcement is you're denying Trump security briefings because he's a convicted felon.

He should convince the media that he’s hiding secret messages about resigning into every speech, but only if you closely examine every word

GOOD

anyway

coolcoolcoolcoool just finished editing our story on the literal METEOR that exploded above manhattan today and walked out of the office to the hot wind whipping my body from every direction. HONEST question am I in hell?

A Meteor Burned Up 29 Miles Above Midtown Manhattan, NASA Sayswww.thecity.nyc Some residents of Brooklyn and Staten Island heard a loud boom Tuesday morning sparking alarm, while city officials scrambled to identify the cause.

Good morning! Remember: - Dems have outperformed polls in every election since Dobbs - Polled voters are still protesting Biden's Israel/Palestine policy

This is of course hateful rhetoric but I can't get past how, if you say or believe such a thing, then your brain is obviously made up entirely of soggy farts.

In 2022, Vance unleashed an unhinged theory on Tucker Carlson's show that his Dem opponent was planning on "flooding America with illegal aliens and then using American tax dollars to fund gender reassignment surgeries for those aliens" www.advocate.com/news/2022/11...

GOP Senate Hopeful Says Dems Want to Turn Immigrants Transgenderwww.advocate.com Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance, the author of Hillbilly Elegy, says that Democrats are bringing "illegal immigrants" to the U.S. to turn them trans.

sure. fuck these people. we do not have to agree with them. they are a minority. i am not going to spend the next four months cowering in dread and fear.

This is true, but I think maybe we should view both the assassination attempt/reaction and the Vance pick less as moves for electoral advantage and more solidifying the insane base for violence once Trump is electorally defeated.

A thing about JD Vance is that he ran worse in Ohio in 22 than Donald Trump did in 20, running in a much better year for Republicans, and Donald Trump lost that election nationwide

This seems like the absolute worst guy to pick when Dobbs has been a clear loser at the ballot box for these jabronis

From the JD Vance (Senate) campaign website. JD Vance would ban every single woman (or girl) from receiving an abortion, no matter the circumstances by which she was impregnated or the danger to her health. Maybe (just maybe) if she risks imminent death.

I keep saying! It's our election to lose!

seriously though, we (sane people) should absolutely have this election in the bag

We are in a late republican period,” Vance said. “If we’re going to push back against it, we’re going to have to get pretty wild, and pretty far out there, and go in directions that a lot of conservatives right now are uncomfortable with.”

J.D. Vance Is a Dangerous Authoritariannymag.com The only coherent aspect of his worldview is a lust for power.

brilliant political maneuver to bring a white man from ohio onto the ticket. how can we compete with this

Flashback

WSJ this morning. lol at the last bit. "Leaders on both sides need to stop describing the stakes of the election in apocalyptic terms. Democracy won't end if one or the other candidate is elected. Fascism is not aborning if Mr. Trump wins, unless you have little faith in American institutions."

Institutions work until they don’t. It’s banal but true. Courts as institutions worked when Trump tried to steal the election, but FedSoc has been chipping away at them for decades, and I think it is very rational to doubt they will work any more to restrain an executive.

This is a really good point. The president can’t really say, for instance, “Trump appointed Alex Acosta, the guy who got a sweetheart plea deal for Epstein (who trafficked the young girls Trump is accused of raping), to be his labor secretary” in a speech, but it’s true and we should say it.

We have to say this because Biden/Harris can't. They can't say "the guy who just got shot was closely connected to a pedophile ring", that's not appropriate from the president (we've decided). But we can say "Donald Trump promoted the DA who let Epstein off the hook", and we should

If Trump wins and Rs take Senate, this is absolutely happening. Don't even think it's a joke anymore. They'll encourage Thomas to step down, and then this person will sit for decades on the highest court in the land.

Congratulations, Supreme Court Justice Aileen Cannon

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