2024 Elections: One Last Chance for Democracy

I put up my first ever political yard sign. While I know a sign isn't changing anyone's mind about who they vote for, my thought is after the January 6th craziness, it'll be good for those voting the other way to see evidence that people around them voted for the opponent.

I went with a "Harris/Walz Save Democracy" garden flag, but was tempted by one that read, "get in witches, we're voiting for Kamala"

I love that!
 
I don’t recommend putting air tags on a lawn sign and chasing down when stolen, but someone did and video is hilarious and sad. Teenage boy and his mom had over 60 Harris walz signs in back of their truck and when confronted mommy screamed “here you go liberals”

this was in Missouri, lucky they didn’t get shot

biggest snowflakes in the world, triggered by signs
 

I heard about this town hall because I used to follow Zach Levi (I loved Chuck and Shazam) and he was pimping it. Finally reminded me to unfollow him. That dude torched his career and credibility by first endorsing RFK Jr. and then Trump.

Speaking of Trump the Georgia Supreme Court just refused to hear or overturn the the ruling blocking the new rules by the MAGA Election Board. This is kind of a big deal because it:

A) Stops the stall over hand counts and such

B) Signals that they will also agree with the lower courts that when the day comes to certify the counties are required by law (as admitted to by Trump's lawyers) to certify whether they have "questions" or not.

Now I am still of the belief he will eek out a victory there until proven otherwise but early voting is a positive thing so far there especially in the Dem strongholds if I heard right. According to a pollster (a rather negative guy) I see interviews with from time to time that lives there enthusiasm is rather high and (as of a few weeks back) belief is she is on track to hit the numbers that usually signal strong Dem showings in other elections.

Why are you being so divisive?
 
Probably not Donnie's fault for nixing the town hall. Bobby Jr. was probably too busy bending Tulsi over the desk.

Trump Even Stiffs The Military

n April 2020, Vanessa Guill?n, a 20-year-old Army private, was bludgeoned to death by a fellow soldier at Fort Hood, in Texas. The killer, aided by his girlfriend, burned Guill?n’s body. Guill?n’s remains were discovered two months later, buried in a riverbank near the base, after a massive search.

Guill?n, the daughter of Mexican immigrants, grew up in Houston, and her murder sparked outrage across Texas and beyond. Fort Hood had become known as a particularly perilous assignment for female soldiers, and members of Congress took up the cause of reform. Shortly after her remains were discovered, President Donald Trump himself invited the Guill?n family to the White House. With Guill?n’s mother seated beside him, Trump spent 25 minutes with the family as television cameras recorded the scene.

In the meeting, Trump maintained a dignified posture and expressed sympathy to Guill?n’s mother. “I saw what happened to your daughter Vanessa, who was a spectacular person, and respected and loved by everybody, including in the military,” Trump said. Later in the conversation, he made a promise: “If I can help you out with the funeral, I’ll help—I’ll help you with that,” he said. “I’ll help you out. Financially, I’ll help you.”

Natalie Khawam, the family’s attorney, responded, “I think the military will be paying—taking care of it.” Trump replied, “Good. They’ll do a military. That’s good. If you need help, I’ll help you out.” Later, a reporter covering the meeting asked Trump, “Have you offered to do that for other families before?” Trump responded, “I have. I have. Personally. I have to do it personally. I can’t do it through government.” The reporter then asked: “So you’ve written checks to help for other families before this?” Trump turned to the family, still present, and said, “I have, I have, because some families need help … Maybe you don’t need help, from a financial standpoint. I have no idea what—I just think it’s a horrific thing that happened. And if you did need help, I’m going to—I’ll be there to help you.”

A public memorial service was held in Houston two weeks after the White House meeting. It was followed by a private funeral and burial in a local cemetery, attended by, among others, the mayor of Houston and the city’s police chief. Highways were shut down, and mourners lined the streets.

Five months later, the secretary of the Army, Ryan McCarthy, announced the results of an investigation. McCarthy cited numerous “leadership failures” at Fort Hood and relieved or suspended several officers, including the base’s commanding general. In a press conference, McCarthy said that the murder “shocked our conscience” and “forced us to take a critical look at our systems, our policies, and ourselves.”

According to a person close to Trump at the time, the president was agitated by McCarthy’s comments and raised questions about the severity of the punishments dispensed to senior officers and noncommissioned officers.

In an Oval Office meeting on December 4, 2020, officials gathered to discuss a separate national-security issue. Toward the end of the discussion, Trump asked for an update on the McCarthy investigation. Christopher Miller, the acting secretary of defense (Trump had fired his predecessor, Mark Esper, three weeks earlier, writing in a tweet, “Mark Esper has been terminated”), was in attendance, along with Miller’s chief of staff, Kash Patel. At a certain point, according to two people present at the meeting, Trump asked, “Did they bill us for the funeral? What did it cost?”

According to attendees, and to contemporaneous notes of the meeting taken by a participant, an aide answered: Yes, we received a bill; the funeral cost $60,000.

Trump became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: “Don’t pay it!” Later that day, he was still agitated. “Can you believe it?” he said, according to a witness. “Fucking people, trying to rip me off.”

Khawam, the family attorney, told me she sent the bill to the White House, but no money was ever received by the family from Trump. Some of the costs, Khawam said, were covered by the Army (which offered, she said, to allow Guill?n to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery) and some were covered by donations. Ultimately, Guill?n was buried in Houston.

Its a long but good article...phuck this guy!
 
NBC News asked Kamala how she could compromise on women’s reproductive rights to make republicans happy.

no.

provide universal healthcare and pay for it by taxing churches, how’s that for a compromise
 
Yeah I mean this isn't Hillary more or less forgetting a couple of battleground states exist. It's one day away from a marathon of nothing but swing states. Focus on the swing states, yes, but it's still good to maybe visit some of the other bigger states, like, once or twice over a few months.

Texas early voting numbers are up. That might have something to do with it

What reporter has the balls to ask that?
