David Frum, ex-George W. Bush speechwriter, believes that it was Trump who exposed his significant weaknesses during Thursday night's rambling address at the Republican National Convention. Frum made the case that the DNC has not done enough to proudly tout and market its successes over the last 4 years. He emphasized that the Trump-led GOP is as beatable as any reactionary minority faction ever was beatable."

Ridin" with Biden until *IF* and when *HE* decides it's better for him and for the country for him to step down.
“The media … has done an abominable job of prioritizing what’s important and what’s not. We are on the brink of going down the road of a dictatorship. That is more important than anything else. I know it’s attractive. You can say people have gotten used to Trump. Why have they gotten usded to Trump? Because the press has gotten used to Trump, because the press does not cover his insanity.”
~ Jennifer Rubin
New LEAKED VIDEO of RFK Jr.'s private phone conversation with Trump the day after the Pennsylvania rally. This was posted by RFK Jr.'s son, and quickly deleted. RFK Jr. apologized shortly after for it becoming public.
Trump poisons people's brains. RFK Jr's brain doesn't have any room for poison after the worm ate it. (sarcasm)
The point is only the weakest of minds believe Trump. Only the weakest. A Military Vet told me that after he saw what Putin's brainwashing has done to our Country.
Biden calls the Media out!
President Biden: "Why don't you guys ever talk about the 28 lies he told? Where are you? Why didn’t the press ever talk about that? 28 times. He lied in that debate"
Holt: "I just ask the question because…"
President Biden: "I was there. And by the way, you won't answer the question. Why didn't the press talk about all the lies he told?"
Holt: "We have reported many of the issues…"
President Biden: "No, you haven't. God love you"
is it a good thing that our school children get the same level of protection as a former president of the United States?
@Animeraider i stopped at "careful with that axe, Eugene" and shoved a fistful of cash through my phone
A friend of mine in Texas who fronts the band "Fear2Stop" has just released a new album of synth based remakes, including a fairly good remake of "Mad World" in it's original up-tempo form.
The single is available everywhere but the album it's from is only on Bandcamp right now. Enjoy!
(btw, it was a conversation with him that lead to me writing "Ordinary Life")

Joe Biden for President
By Bernie Sanders

I'll do all I can to see President Biden re-elected. Why? Despite my disagreements w/him on particular issues, he's the most effective president in modern history of our US & strongest candidate to defeat Donald Trump, demagogue & pathological liar... a lesson from progressive & centrist forces in France who came together to soundly defeat right-wing extremism.
Fuck These Folks, in particular:

For anyone who said Joe Biden didn’t have a vision and clear message, that’s been burnt to a crisp. His speech is strong and rousing. 🔥
