Why Are Billionaires Tiptoeing Around Trump?

Bill Gates, Jamie Dimon, and Jeff Bezos may think they’re playing it safe staying on the sidelines. But you can't exactly hedge against the former president’s wrath.

It's fear of what he'll do to them.

I just learned that Barbara Pierce Bush ( daughter of the last Bush president) is endorsing VP Harris !! I’m sorry if someone else already posted it , I just thought it was remarkable;

“ Barbara Pierce Bush, the daughter of former President George W. Bush and granddaughter of former President George H.W. Bush, spent part of her weekend in Pennsylvania campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris”

Rex Huppke:
As Trump’s hate rally at Madison Square Garden descends further into racism and xenophobia, cowardly newspaper owners who kept editorial boards from publishing presidential endorsements are looking approximately a thousand times worse.

So hypothetically, if a guy- any guy named elon mush- LIED ON HIS CITIZENSHIP INTERVIEW- it can be revoked?

According to the Daily Beast,
“Trump waited to make sure that Bezos did what he said he was going to do, and then met with the Blue Origin people,” he said on Saturday. “Which tells us that there was an actual deal made."

Ex-WaPo Editor: This Is a Straight Bezos-Trump ‘Quid Pro Quo’

ProPublica:
That cardboard box in your home is fueling election denial...

A boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

"An endorsement of Harris had been drafted by Post editorial page staffers but had yet to be published, according to two people who were briefed on the sequence of events and who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. The decision to no longer publish presidential endorsements was made by The Post’s owner, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, according to four people who were briefed on the decision."

NY residents: tomorrow (Oct 26) is the last day to register to vote in this election. Git to it!

Justice Robert’s: “ In very quick order, I would expect ... a goodly number of states will say, ‘Whoever the Democratic candidate is, you’re off the ballot,’ and others, for the Republican candidate, ‘You’re off the ballot,’ and it will come down to just a handful of states that are going to decide the presidential election. That’s a pretty daunting consequence.”

Okay for Kennedy to be kicked off the ballot. But not Trump?

SCOTUS is corrupt.

The GOP’s war on women that culminated in the #TFG/#SCOTUS overturning of ROE just confirmed that it was never about what was best for women or even the wellbeing of children. It was about the GOP being in control of women's bodies and how they live their lives, pure and simple.

Can someone, especially konservative originalist GOP scholars or whatever label they choose to be identified by, show me where in the Constitution it says that women should be denied life saving medical care? Make it make sense. No male, who cares about women, votes for the GOP.

I know I only need 1 reason to vote to make sure trump doesn't win. Here are 100 reasons:

#VoteBlue #VoteBlueAsifYourLivesDependonit #VoteBlueToStopTheStupid #VoteBlueDownBallot #VoteBlueToSaveYourFreedomAndTheUSA #VoteBlueToStopACriminalDictator #VoteBlueToEndTheHate

How detached US politics is from reality.

Cities seek more than $750K in unpaid bills for Trump campaign events since 2016

At least four cities and a county are still waiting to be reimbursed for costs associated with local law enforcement and first responders during Trump's visits.

Not paying is his modus operandi.
