I’m no big fan of The Squad given their embrace of the NATO proxy war in Ukraine.

Still, be clear about what just happened to Cori Bush:

AIPAC spent millions to unseat her, just as they did to Bowman.

Any mild criticism of Israel is forbidden in DC.

St Louis prosecutor Wesley Bell defeated Missouri’s first Black female member of Congress with about 51% of the vote

It’s a real exercise in doublethink to believe that inflation is coming down when prices for everything continue to soar.

Kamala Harris’ Running-Mate, Tim Walz, has been a strong supporter of Israel through his political career. He is hardly a “better choice” than Josh Shapiro.

06/08/2024

“Like most other Democrats, Walz has long been a supporter of Israel. When he served in the House from 2007-2019, he frequently took pro-Israel votes, including voting to condemn a United Nations resolution affirming that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are illegal… He has also met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.”

Walz has taken a conciliatory approach toward pro-Palestinian "Uncommitted" voters, praising them for being "civically engaged."

If Trump or Harris (or RFK Jr) wanted to pick up more votes, they’d be vowing to keep US troops out of Israel’s wars.

I’m old enough to remember when there were at least some American politicians and mainstream media voices suggesting that the U.S. not act as the global policeman.

The irony about conservatives opposing welfare initiatives and student debt forgiveness is that they are just pushing to make it harder for young couples to start families.

If you want to fight population decline and a loss of family values, then make it affordable to have kids.

The true main negative impact of Trump isn’t that he’s a “threat to democracy” or whatever nonsense liberals say.

It’s that he and his movement (and all of the Con Inc influencers) have, over the past 10 years, brought people who were disillusioned with the system — or even who were “conspiracy theorists” — back into the fold.

People who were once questioning 9/11 and who thought all politicians are scum are once again voting Republican and talking about how we need to “wipe all them Iranian terrorists off the map.”

Here is a sitting Congressman saying that Congress will “disqualify” Trump from taking office on January 6, 2025 and then create “civil war conditions” to suppress dissent.

How is this not insurrection?

How is this not a threat to American democracy?

How is this not fascism?

Don’t worry, folks!

You can always invest in World War III !

RBC analyst Ken Herbert upgraded shares of Lockheed Martin to Buy from Hold, and raised the price target to $600 from $500.

The stock market has been divorced from reality for years.

The working class has been living through the realities of inflation, debt, stagnant wages, rising homelessness, and a sinking quality of life since the pandemic.

We have all been living through the crash for years now.

Today we may see the real reason why Biden was forced by Party bosses to drop out:

Stocks are crashing worldwide and an official U.S. recession now seems imminent.

Dems saw it coming, knew an incumbent touting “Bidenomics” couldn’t win, so orchestrated “passing the torch.”

When is Joe Biden going to speak to the nation?

22/07/2024

From October:

“there is an unfounded conversation among a faction on the political right that goes something like this: Democratic power brokers will intervene at the last minute to replace a weakened 80-year-old Biden with someone else as the party’s nominee.”

Sadly, we are no longer Ridin’ with Biden.

But now we begin a new era of Gettin’ in the Impala with Kamala.

21/07/2024

It’s moments like this where you see how history books get filled with pure BS:

Biden’s announcement today will be remembered as a forward-thinking elder statesman progressively passing the torch to a woman of color.

All of the details about why Democrats defended Biden’s mental faculties until after the rigged primaries, why his camp agreed to an extremely early debate in June, why the media suddenly became conspicuously anti-Biden after that debate, and how Party leaders bullied him to drop out will all be forgotten.

The details and questions get tossed aside, and all that remains is the propaganda.

If Trump had been assassinated last week, we would’ve ended up with two nominees who did not win the primaries.

21/07/2024

Funny how things work out.

21/07/2024

Kamala Harris is a cop.

21/07/2024

Why did Democrats wait until after the primaries to pressure Biden out?

Why did they schedule a debate with Trump in June — months before debates are typically held?

21/07/2024

After years of ranting about how Trump is “a threat to democracy,” Democrats just pressured their own sitting President — who just won their primaries — to drop out so that Party bosses can hand the nomination to someone else.

21/07/2024

Trump survived a bullet to the head and Biden couldn’t survive a phone call from his masters.

Barry and Hillary threatened to release the tapes.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

“Trump is up five points nationally now, and three across the key battleground states. To put that national lead in context: it's been 20 years since a Republican presidential candidate has won the national popular vote, and over 30 years since a Republican won by more than five…

“Trump also leads Vice President Kamala Harris in a hypothetical matchup.”

Trump would also lead Harris. Voters say both Biden and Trump encouraged national unity after assassination attempt against Trump.

I know Republicans are awful, but at least their faults are largely from being insulated from facts or realities — like the images of what have been happening in Gaza for the past 9 months.

The arrogant, do***ey pretension privileged liberals is just so much more insufferable.

“The number of Biden defectors on Capitol Hill now stands at 30, or more than 10% of the Democratic caucuses in the House and Senate.”

It may seem laughable that Republicans are preaching “unity,” but at least they have a unified party.

Democrats can’t even pull off a successful mutiny.

The Biden campaign reiterated in a new memo following the Republican National Convention that the president will be the Democratic nominee, even as the party remains embroiled in disagreement about…
