The fact this presidential race has devolved into this completely lopsided media farce wasn't unexpected. The fact that anybody could seriously entertain the thought of electing a mentally impaired, convicted felon fascist makes me very sad and extremely worried for our democracy.
The Justice Department has announced the seizure of two domain names and the search of 968 social media accounts used by Russian actors to create an AI-enhanced social media bot farm that spread disinformation in the United States and abroad.

@SmirkingRaven is it ever going to stop feeling like it’s my fault
Biden doesn't give me anxiety.
@SuperDuke 🤣 the prototype and the final product
@GFerro1965 @shanalittle45 yep. Actually everyone.
Kiddo’s #anxiety was amped up today, revisiting worries we had fed to her imaginary robot trash dog. 😓 Not the most emotionally difficult ones, but certainly ones we worked hard to kick. Like trusting her eyes to tell her there’s nothing in or on her hands instead of needing an adult to verify. She was playing with her gemstone collection and needed me to tell her there were none in her hands before she ate her snack. Same with the wrapper for her babybel cheese. 😣
Ted Lieu to the media, moments ago: "We all hear from our constituents ... and something I’ve heard that doesn’t seem to be being covered ... are the Epstein files. These files were released. Donald Trump is sort of all over them. There are pictures of him with Epstein. He’s taken plane flights with Epstein with young girls aboard. He’s in call logs with Epstein … y'all might want to look at that ..."
If everyone is going to vote for whomever the Dem candidate is, why put ourselves through the trauma of changing now? I also wonder about the coincidence of the SCOTUS decision and the drumbeat to remove Biden. And, should Joe not survive four more years, we'll have Kamala 🤷🏼♀️ Stop the trauma, stop the drama.
So my dental plan was dropped by my current dentist. Scheduled today with a new dentist. I am cautiously (very very cautiously) optimistic. This dentist’s reviews make them out to be one of those 🦄 dentists who accepts my crappy dental insurance and isn’t part of a thinly-veiled-fraud-scheme, heartless dental chain.
I'm sure things will go well for the pundits and commentators if the Fascists are elected. 😂 #politics
