I’m not moving on from this. The American people have a right to know whether the Republican presidential candidate may have played a role in his own “assassination attempt”. — If so, we demand daily front-page stories about Trump’s murderous plot until Election Day.

@karlauerbach Why do the media act like convicted felon Trump is just a normal candidate? That discussing policies somehow makes covering him ok? It’s almost Twilight Zoneish. What do they teach in journalism school these days? Really bizarre.

Apparently, #TFG didn’t realize that Bozeman is home to Montana State, & is becoming purple, & Hope Walz, Tim Walz’s daughter, recently graduated from the university. Music selection: likely from a local: “Before Trump got on stage, they played “Send In The Clowns.” Whoever was running the soundstage has a very ironic sense of humor…” -T Hartmann “Trump campaign plays the theme from the Titanic at his rally.”-Kamala HQ TFG owes money to Bozeman from a prior rally. #USPol https://dailymontanan.com/2024/08/08/when-trump-comes-to-town-he-brings-excitement-leaves-unpaid-bills/

This week convicted felon Donald Trump moved to delay his sentencing until after the election. Remember, he's not running for president as much as he's running from the law.

Vance pulled his mother-in-law out of the professional world: "A biology prof, PhD, drops what they’re doing to tend to the need of a new mother with her infant?" It never occurs that JD could have taken a work break to do the caregiving. https://www.salon.com/2024/08/16/jd-vance-isnt-just-out-to-get-cat-ladies--his-weird-plans-target-dog-people-and-grandmas-too/

@tchambers Have a good time in Chicago. It’s my old stomping ground. I still have family there & get back as often as I can. It’s a wonderful city.

But be sure to tell the MAGAs it’s a crime-filled cesspool. We don’t want them moving in.

Happy Pride!

THE HEADLINES ARE FINALLY TARGETING TRUMP'S DEMENTIA

hilarious:

'Late in life, William F. Buckley made a confession. Capitalism is “boring,” he told me. “Devoting your life to it,” as conservatives do, “is horrifying if only because it’s so repetitious. It’s like sex.”'

1. capitalism is boring. ok, cool cool, weird flex for you bill but you do you

2. capitalism is boring... *because it's like sex*. and there's a cringe insight into the conservative mind i didn't know i didn't want to know

I try not to wish or meditate on evil happening to another person, but occasionally, I will hope that they get back what they put into the world.

Food company profit increases since inflation peaked:

Cheesecake Factory +471%
Cal-Maine +268%
Jack In The Box +213%
Chipotle +110%
Starbucks +47%
Sysco +43%

How much did they collectively spend on stock buybacks? Over $10 billion.

They used inflation as cover to get rich.

I can get this printed on a yard sign, but will my neighbors get the joke, even this old joke?

Press reaction to Trump campaign email leak starkly different from 2016, when Clinton was hacked

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just voted to block the Right to Contraception Act, which would enshrine the right to contraceptive access nationally.

When people say, "They'll never take that away," They're WRONG!!!

No Rights are Safe with Republicans in Office.

James Comer has investigated many Democrats, currently he is investigating Walz for being a secret Chinese communist because he did some teacher trips to Chins. But, why has Comer sat on this uh information until now? What other secret communists and ner do wells does he know about but isn't saying the names of?

Why is he so well informed? WHO is informing him?

We need an investigation.

Doesn’t my asshole have any rights?
