Did you drop this “/s”?

With a wannabe fascist dictator who wants to create a Christian nationalist country on the one hand, and abortion rights on the ballot, in one way or another, in many states on the other, it’s possible for a lot of states to become swing states this time around. A lot of people who might not otherwise vote may show up to vote for pro-choice candidates and ballot measures. That could be enough to turn some red states purple. Please don’t waste your vote on a third party Presidential candidate even if you think your vote doesn’t matter.

If you want to support third parties, do it at the state and local levels. You might find that hard to do though, since most of them, including West’s Justice for All party and RFK’s we the people party don’t have any other candidates running for any other offices at any other level.

These people are only running to siphon votes from other candidates and sway the election. West even has Republican operatives working for his party in North Carolina and Arizona to help him get on the ballots. We only know that because those states require signature gathers be registered with the states. You can bet your bottom dollar that they are helping him, RFK, and Stein in other states too.

Wrong. A vote for Stein, or RFK, or West is still effectively a vote for Trump.

I think you mean the alt-right thing.

Nah, it’s just to keep the rubes (Read: undecided voters) confused. Trump’s supporters are in favor of Project 2025. They want him to embrace it, but they also know that if he does so publicly, the media would rake him over the coals that that could cost him some of the rube vote.

So Trump publicly says he is not associated with 2025 and both his supporters and Biden’s supporters know he’s full of shit, but the undecided voters think he might be telling the Truth. If he actually admitted he’s all in on Project 2025, he’s lose the undecided vote because they don’t want to live in a Christian theocracy any more than Biden’s supporters do.

Biden need to order all the property owned by the conservative members of the court be seized under eminent domain. You know, for security reasons. And he should make sure they don’t miss Clarence Thomas’ RV.

You obviously don’t know Democrats. If for some reason Biden decided to step down, it would be utter chaos for months as the Dems all fight over who his replacement should be.

And you can bet that there’s a hell of a lot more we don’t know about.

After seeing what he did for Illinois, I would vote for him in a heartbeat.

Seems like a good time to point out that slavery was not really abolished by the 13th Amendment.

Section 1

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Emphasis mine. Former does not belong in that sentence. That is a current slave plantation and those are slaves.

Same. Using Firefox with unlock uBlock Origin and had no problems with the site at all.

Edit: Damned autocorrect

The republicans have been charging their base up with a culture war, calls to violence are larger and louder.

You are absolutely correct and it is fully intentional. The Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, the authors of Project 2025, said in an interview a few days ago, “We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless ― if the left allows it to be.”

This is a thinly veiled threat. Let us have out way, or there will be blood. All the alt-Reich and MAGAts know exactly what he’s telling them and they will not hesitate to bloody up anyone who gets in their way.

Oh look, someone with no chance to win taking the opportunity to get some publicity so she can sell books.

Heh, so if Biden had just said he was scheduling “executive time” for 8:00PM to 11:00PM every day, everybody would have been cool, right?

Thanks for correcting me. Always happy to learn!

The president’s power to pardon federal crimes is not really limited in the constitution except to exclude cases of impeachment. That is generally accepted to mean that the power of the pardon is otherwise nearly unlimited except perhaps that one cannot pardon oneself. There is no specific rule or law against giving a pardon in exchange for payment, though it is clearly considered by most as unethical.

I wouldn’t be scheduling non-critical meetings after 8:00 PM either. A normal president’s day must start around 7:00 or 8:00 AM. Unless it’s an emergency, I don’t see a need for a President to be working more than a dozen or so hours a day.

On the topic, do MAGAts really think that their orange god was awake, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and working at 8:00 AM every day after staying up and rage tweeting until 3:00 AM? I would be shocked to find out that Trump did any actual work at all before noon.

I thought we already knew that he was selling pardons.

No. Russian and Chinese civics classes do not cover the finer points of American governance.

Al/Jon would work better. I think Franken would do better in the Oval Office while Jon would shine cracking the whip as President of the Senate. Might be able to get some work out of those bastards for a change.
