They would rather give up Democracy than to have a Black Woman as the president. Let that sink in.

America…it’s like watching the Fall of Rome. There is no other democracy, from Norway to New Zealand, which would elect as its leader a rapist, felon, liar, ignoramus, misogynist, vindictive bully and charlatan.

I’ll never understand how we all watched this live on television and didn’t immediately disqualify Donald Trump from public office for the rest of his life.

White people in America should never again talk about criminal behavior, amongst Black people, immigrants, or anyone else when they are literally casting ballots for a convicted felon to be president of the United States.

1. Michael Mulder, the owner of WeCan Brewing Systems, LLC is a dick & fraudster. 2. Who still says microbrewery, on the West Coast?

So Republicans have sued to challenge mail ballots that are turned in by hand in some Georgia counties. Except Republicans challenged only in 7 DEMOCRAT-LEANING counties. They did not challenge REPUBLCAN-LEANING counties that offer the same exact service. Voter suppression.

The fact that both presidential candidates keep going to the same 5 states should add more fuel to abolishing the electoral college. It’s terrible.

90% of Republicans believe that crime is higher now than a year ago when actually there have been dramatic declines in crime over the last year

Anyone who is voting for the “economy” needs to see just how bad Trump’s plan is:

I have a confession and a plea to folks who are flirting with voting Jill Stein. When I was a 20 year old college student in 2000, I voted for Ralph Nader instead of Al Gore. I loved the progressive message Nader offered, and Bush and Gore seemed kinda the same to someone who was paying peripheral attention. I've regretted that vote for my entire adult life. Ultimately, George Bush won by a margin of 500+ votes in the state of Florida over Gore. And that was the ballgame. Ralph Nader peeled 97,000+ votes away from Gore. If only 600 of those 90,000 had voted for the major party candidate that more aligned with their values, things would have been very different. When I was in my senior year of college, 9/11 happened. The country and western world rallied around Bush's resolute response to the traumatizing terror attacks. I was in NY at the time, and it was a terrifying moment for the nation. But the consequences of Bush being in office at that moment were immense. Bush's disdain for his dad's nemesis, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, led him to invent a rationale to invade a country that literally had nothing to do with 9/11. End result? He killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people, thousands of American troops, and spent over a trillion dollars of taxpayer money in the process. Beyond the completely immoral and indefensible Iraq War, Bush was a complete disaster as a president. His "No Child Left Behind" effort turned public schools into standardized testing centers. He tripled down on fossil fuels and ignored climate change. His tax cuts for the rich helped contribute to the 2008 economic downturn that led to the Great Recession. He was a terrible president. In an alternate reality, Al Gore would have been president in 2001 when terrorists attacked America. Would he have gone into Iraq? Absolutely not. Would he have ignored global warming? 100% no! Gore was perhaps the preeminent proponent of fighting climate change at that time. Would he have passed massive tax cuts for the wealthy? No way. This is a sliding doors scenario. What would have happened? We can't be sure. But one thing is for sure: those votes for Ralph Nader (in Florida in particular) were EXCEPTIONALLY consequential for the lives of millions around the world. Gore would have offered a more forward-facing, environmentally conscious & peaceful presidency that wasn't so rooted in grievance and privilege. My point is: Either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will win the election. That is a fact. You might feel the need to submit a "protest vote" as I did in 2000. Just be ready to wear it when Donald Trump wins, strips away reproductive rights from all Americans, implements an economy-destroying tariff, dismantles the entire federal government, eliminates the Department of Education, prosecutes his perceived enemies, and devolves America into chaos. There are no perfect choices. But rest assured, there are only two. Trust me - I've been wearing my vote for a quarter century.

Please understand that this platform is about to become the very least reliable source of information in the aggregate if Trump starts losing tomorrow. Coup Two requires people to feel "robbed" and Musk is going to go into overdrive making the MAGAs feel that.

Trump says BANNING vaccines is on the table??? Not getting rid of vaccine mandates, actually BANNING the vaccines themselves for diseases like polio and measles? That is batshit crazy.

Insane… 22 days for the next Play-off game… Come on @MLS

Election interference is little things like taking away polling centers, ballot boxes & making it harder, more time consuming for people to vote. Notice who in power that makes it harder to vote, and who is begging you to get to the polls and change our fates as a collective.

I like how a story came out yesterday proving that Epstein knew INTRICATE DETAILS of the Trump White House and was closer with Trump than anybody knew and it's radio silence about that on this right-wing cesspool of an app. Republicans are just liars. Everything is a conspiracy except when Trump is proven to be a part of it. Absolute pathetic losers.

As a reminder, The US has had 46 presidents. Among them, there have been 91 criminal felony charges indicted. Those charges are distributed among the presidents as in the following list: 1/2
