@QueenOfEverything yeah. I don't buy it either. I suppose those people are just hoping that Kamala Harris will be more focused on policy implementation than Charles de Gaulle was.
@kel very much agree. It's unfortunate that court reform isn't a pressing electoral issue given its potential to enable most of the policies that are at the top of mind for voters.
If our democracy prevails after January, I suspect we'll see a good number of right wing bloggers and journalists who will claim to be "unwitting victims" in these Russian disinformation schemes.

@AskTheDevil I'm thinking of something like, "paahr". Evoking the English aristocracy.
@rpardee But with much bigger eyebrows.
@th3j35t3r The only winning move is not to play.
I know the electoral college gives a 5 point advantage to the GOP, but the Iowa Electronic Markets suggests that the GOP's chances in Nov are still not great.😆

Help me out, Coso legal bods. How is this not a fairly blatant violation of the Hatch act?

#FUNFACT - If Putin thought Trump was gonna get back in he would have held out and done this prisoner swap deal with Trump instead as he knows he can manipulate and coerce Trump for a better deal.
Putin has done this deal now because he knows there's not gonna be a better one on the table. Ergo - Trump is cooked and no longer useful.
And that's fucking hilarious.

Reflecting on God belief and this election.
Biden: "only the Lord Almighty" would make him stand down.
Trump: telling the crowd he was protected by “Almighty God.”
Fuck this cancer of god belief and the way it's brought us to this piss-poor state of affairs.
Please know that when you invoke God from now on, I'm judging you like you'd just proudly dropped the N-word.
@th3j35t3r and in the few hours of restless sleep since reading that, my brain dreamt a recast episode of Airwolf with Stringfellow and Dom respectively cast by Melania and Donald. They spent a lot of the episode flying through canyons and shooting missiles at migrants.
It wasn't really that different than the original.
@AskTheDevil @th3j35t3r wasn't that Blue Thunder?
@SentinelOfTruth more of a strategic move for me. We all saw what we saw. Talking about it on social media only compounds the issue. There's a limited time to replace Biden and we're heading towards the end of it. I've made my donation. Hopefully it will at least help in down ballot races.
