We have lived through a lifetime of history in the past decade. Dr. Richardson suggests that we should be tired and I am.
I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing so many Americans so out of touch and willing to vote for a mad man. it's wearing me down.

I love Wanda Sykes. We all know what VP Harris didn't say, but still, she did kind of say it through a mind meld.

Most Americans with a brain are "afraid of him". He's fucking nuts!
We all watched January 6th. We all saw what you did!

Trump went on to threaten a wide range of the kinds of people who would face prosecution and prison time, including campaign donors and those involved in administering elections.
“Please be aware that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters & Corrupt Election Officials,” he wrote, adding that such people will be “sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.”
We may not be perfect, but he's nuts!

The Washington Post ran a story titled: "Kamala Harris ran her office like a prosecutor. Not everyone liked that." It goes on to list a number of people that left her staff. A few didn't blend with Harris' high standards she set for her team. I'm so fed up with her being judged on a different scale because of her gender. It made me recall this image. I can only cancel my WAPO subscription once sadly.

Interesting article on the political origins of Donald Trump. Learned some new things today from Andy Borowitz.

President Obama just did a sleight of hand thing that fit so well! Michelle's a tough act to follow, Barack is her equal.

Amen. God bless satire.

The perfect storm? What we witnessed last night could have easily been a shit-storm if the party didn't take Biden's advice and coalesce behind Kamala Harris. They have taken every right step since Joe Biden withdrew. I was hesitant to see him do so, but that a large number of big egos sat on them for the past month. It's unheard of in #politics.
What Joe Biden did a few weeks back was the singular most selfless act I’ve ever seen a politician do. He put country ahead of everything. He’s a special man and deserves accolades for his actions.

It's always about the Benjamins. The corruption is staggering.

Flew in from that other place. Very Glad to be here, people are central to social media that works.
