From #FloridaToday: Arguments break out at Brevard Public Schools board meeting over book ban policy.
#Politics A Florida Atlantic University presidential poll shows #Trump leading #Harris in Florida 50%-47%.
Amendment 4, the pro-choice initiative, has 56% support but needs 60% to pass under Florida law.
In the Senate race, Rick Scott leads 47% - 43% over Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, although the primaries haven't closed yet.
#Trump told Elon Musk last night he'd flee to Venezuela if he loses the election in November ... Just checked, the US and Venezuela signed an extradition treaty in 2022. #Biden "proclaimed" the treaty on January 2, 2024. Think he had someone in mind? 🤔
Here are the crimes eligible for extradition. Interesting that "illegal sale of documents belonging to the national
archives" is on the list. Think they had someone in mind? 🤔

Today's "This Modern World" by Tom Tomorrow on #DailyKos.
From #FloridaToday:
"... Republicans make up nearly 37% of Florida’s voters, compared to about 29% for Democrats. A significant number of voters in Florida, 3.92 million, or just over 34%, are affiliated with no political party or the minor parties.
From #FloridaToday: 103,000 books removed from Brevard Public Schools libraries.
"[M]ost of the books aren't banned from the district, but rather, are titles that may have been pulled due to a lack of circulation, damage or similar reasons."
From #Politico: #Trump campaign confirms that it was hacked. Politico confirms that it has received some of the stolen documents.
(The campaign claims it was "Iranian hackers.")

The #Arizona Republic on last night's #Harris2024 rally.
"More than 15,000 supporters at Glendale’s Desert Diamond Arena watched as the redrawn Democratic presidential ticket made their first appearance in Arizona and reaffirmed the state’s status as a battleground."
#Politico found the black man who was in the near-helicopter crash with #Trump. It was then-L.A. City Council member Nate Holden, in 1990, and of course #Kamala #Harris had nothing to do with it.
They all look alike to Trump ...

If that "Downfall" link doesn't work for you, try this bootleg on the Suraj Singh YouTube channel.
If you've never seen "Downfall," it looks like a couple copies are on YouTube. This is on the YoUTube Movies & TV channel, works for me.
In honor of #Trump 's descent into madness, this weekend I'm going to watch "Downfall."
