Following the conversation over at @cbouzy ’s place, and I don’t envy the @Spoutible team’s challenge about monitoring content, specifically #JasmineCrockett’s phrasing choices.
It’s hard to tell if people are passionate but wrong, passionate and right, or just bossy about their own opinions.

"In a statement rebuking Alito released on Friday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) echoed calls for congressional guardrails on “a runaway Supreme Court.”"
Many Dems have made statements about Alito's coup flag, I'm going to do what I can to keep the momentum going. Calls, emails,etc

Literally NOTHING that you want to happen -- in Gaza, on Climate, with Student Loans, with Inflation, unions, minimum wage, expanding the court, etc. -- will ever happen in your lifetime if you let Trump win the White House, & the GOP keep the House or take the Senate. #VoteBlue #BidenHarris

It literally doesn't matter what "single issue" you're basing your whole political personality on... that issue will be handled WORSE if Trump and the GOP take power.
You're not "punishing" Biden or Dems by refusing to vote for them. You're punishing everyone else. All of us.

And everyone needs to disabuse themselves of the nonsensical, baseless fantasy that there is some magical third option that will sweep in and win, somehow.
No.
It's Trump or Biden. It's Republicans or Democrats. Period.
Those are the choices. Pick one. You're not above it all.

So while he was celebrating his 80th birthday with Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, and 75 MAGA guests, Rudy Giuliani was finally served with the Arizona indictment for their criminal conspiracy to overturn our 2020 election. — Now that’s what I call the definition of sweet karma.

Brutish reminder that voting is not a marriage, it’s a bus ride. Cast the vote that gets you closest to your destination. This “Biden didn’t do everything I wanted so I’m not voting” bullshit is childish and dangerous. Be a fucking adult and vote.

The fact that I know more about Hunter Biden’s private parts than I do about the numerous crimes committed by Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas and their wives shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.
10:31 AM - May 17, 2024
would you rather have a Supreme Court Justice who was bought and paid for by plutocrats, or one who was an insurrectionist? WHAT IF I WERE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU COULD HAVE BOTH

I feel like the fact that Ethel & Julius Rosenberg got the chair for far less than what Donald Trump has done should be a bigger story.

While I have a minute, and not to toot my own horn, I watched a miracle occur at Páirc Uí Chaoimh in Cork last night, at a Bruce Springsteen concert. One that was conjured up by my very own wife. We had been in Cork for two days, standing in line to get pre-entry to the pit area before the stage.

American News Media: Trump is batshit crazy so we won't hold him to any kind of standard.
Also American News Media: Biden is sane and a good POTUS so we will hold him to impossible standards.

So, in the death watch tradition for Former President Jimmy Carter, I will share the following:
I met Jimmy Carter at one of his book signings. He had written a book about his mother and came to Sam's Club on his book tour. I'd never met a person with such an angelic presence before. I was in awe.

In response to Crickets Revenge.
You're right that Trump, his cronies & donors know how to work the EC. That's how he got into the WH in 2016. So, while I think his support has dwindled (a lot) since 2016, I do realize Republicans have been working hard to help him cheat to win with gerrymandering, voter restrictions, etc.

Trump's election interference trial is highlighting the extent to which the GOP puts power before democracy. The gag order on trump - more common in organized crime trials - was sidestepped by his cronies, including House Speaker Johnson.
