Hopefully no MAGAmoton will hear Trump's statement and act on it! It is simply outrageous that a Presidentiall candidate would ever make such an irresponsible suggestion!
But inciting riots in the Capital and suggesting that his critics is just Trump being Putin!

The Economist shames the Washington Post! (And Jeff Bezos)

" I will likely never ever vote for a Democrat again."

Hilarious! Like you ever voted for anyone who wasn't a Fascist! And how dare Julia Roberts remind wives that this is 2024 and women do not need to obey their husbands and may, if they choose, keep their voting choice secret or even lie about it if she is unfortunately married to a misogynist man, who thinks wives should be subsevient their paternalistic authority.

The unnecessary death of this 18 year old girl is what happens when politicians decide things which should only be decided be a woman and her doctor. Abbott has blood on his hands and I hope that, somehow, that truth is creeping into his arrogant mind and that he carries the guilt for this unnecessary death for the rest of his life! This shouldn't have been a surprise to him because many doctors had informed him about the consequences of the politically motivated abortion ban!

My parents argued during the Kennedy v Nixon campaign. Dad was a career Naval officer conservative but my Mother, who was a "proud native born Florida Cracker" who supported Kennedy while Dad supported Nixon zshe told him to vote for who he wanted but that her vote would basically cancel out his vote and I don't think I ever heard them discuss it again. Watching The View right now and Chris Christie is their guest, he just said his psrents had the exact same conversation about Kennedy vs Nixon as mine did way back in 1960.

It's been there forever but I'm very glad the Gen Z folks are seeing it so now go vote! No excuses, get out and vote for Harris or against Donald Trump; whichever way you want to think about it. Just do it!

Lebron's video should be played in a non-stop loop on every TV channel in America! Come on ---------, tell us you and Trump aren't racists again!

" I'm simply reminding you that you've actually had the opportunity 16 years ago to do something on it and chose not to."

The same Roberts Court would have thrown any such law out short of a Constitutional Amendment which the Democrats never had an opportunity to pass. realize one important point:

"In 1970, Jane Roe (a fictional name used in court documents to protect the plaintiff's identity) filed a lawsuit against Henry Wade, the district attorney of Dallas County, Texas, where she resided, challenging a Texas law making abortion illegal except by a doctor's orders to save a woman's life. In her lawsuit, Roe alleged that the state laws were unconstitutionally vague and abridged her right of personal privacy, protected by the First, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments."

When the Roberts Court threw out Roe v Wade they basically said that a woman does not have the rights cited ; right of personal privacy, protected by the First, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments." I honestly just can't wait until a more liberal court decides that every idiot in America does not have a Constitutional Right to buy and own an AR15. When that happens the hypocritucal Pro-Life busybodies will discover that valueing human life shoulld not be limited to unwanted fetuses, already born children matter too which basically proves that the whole Pro-Life movement is really just a political tool used by the Republicans to retain the support of the religious right which they need to win elections; do none of y'all remember Donald Trump of the 1980's; pro-choice in those days. But he holds up a bible and pretends to be this devout Christian and y'all completely buy it. If it wasn't so bad for America it would be funny to watch him do his Christian Act!

When will we finally start filing perjury charges against Supreme Court appointees who lie about "settled law" in Senate Judiciary hearings and said Roe v Wade was settled law but obviously were lying and showed their true selves only later by voting in the court to declare Roe v Wade unconstitutional 50 years after that decisiion? It could be the best avenue we have to cleaning house at the Supreme Court and ridding it of partisan hacks masquerading as Justices. The right wing conservative members of the court have made so many decisions completely unsupported by the Constitution or by precedent that it's either find a way of removing them or hust expand the court and overwhelm the conservatives with new appointees to make the long standing conservative majority become a long term minority. Democracy itself depends on yaking away the power the conservative majority has used to steal election (2000), make corporations people (2010), Roe v Wade (2022) THEY HAVE CONSISTENTLY favored Republican pokitical positions in a very predictablr series of decisions while accepting bribes from billionaires. One has to wonder, if Al Gore owned a mega-yacht and a private jet in 2000 would Bush v Gore been decided differently?

Remember that time when Congress could have passed a bipartisan bill legslizing abortion in all 50 states but Republicans opposed anything Democrats tried to do and noe today they get the villsge useful idiots to repeat their talking points which try to shift the blame that results from abortion bans passed by Republicans which includes prison sentences for doctors who violate these deadly bans?

Today I heard Musk say they want to cut spending by 3 trillion dollars but no acknowledgement that Trumo's tax cuts for the rich and for corporations went mostly to top executives in bonuses etc.

"Was expensive and eroded the U.S. revenue base. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated in 2018 that the 2017 law would cost $1.9 trillion over ten years,[3] and recent estimates show that making the law's temporary individual income and estate tax cuts permanent would cost another roughly $400 billion a year beginning in 2027.[4] Together with the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts enacted under President Bush (most of which were made permanent in 2012), the law has severely eroded our country's revenue base. Revenue as a share of GDP has fallen from about 19.5 percent in the years immediately preceding the Bus h tax cuts to just 16.3 percent in the years immediately following the Trump tax cuts, with revenues expected to rise to an annual average of 16.9 percent of GDP in 2018-2026 (excluding pandemic years), according to CBO. This is simply not enough revenue given the nation's investment needs and our commitments to Social Security and health coverage."

These sneaky bastards are trying to sneak through huge ta cuts for the rich and the largest corporations not by proposing nre tax cut but just by making those that exist today, but which will expire in 2025, permanent! This will cosy yje Treasury trillions of dollars but it will hardly make the news because they "are just making permanent" tax rates which were supposed to be temporary.

Donald Trump reminds me of a previous Republican President; Herbert Hoover, who presided over the Crash of 1929 but then didn't have a clue how to fix it. Republicans have beem immitating him ever since. You'd think that sooner or later someone would have questioned the basic conservative ecobomic philosophy of the Republican Party low taxes on the rich bring growth and prosperity but they are incapable of learning.

Maybe if RFK Sr. had more time to raise his he wouldn't be such a jackass! So perhaps we should blame Sirhan Sirhan!

disagree with his staff, let it all hang out monald. Show evertone what a misogynist, despicable person you are, make sure every voter knows who and what you are.

Oh, I fordot to mention J.D, Goebels remark that America is for Americans.

Mass deportationsn detention camps, seperating families under a President of German lineage? So let's substitute Juden for illegal immigrants? What do you have?

Probably Kamala has grounds for twice those damages because of the editing Fox News did on their Trump interview! All Trump voters could join that law suit and claim they were tricked into voting for ztrump because they were led to believe he is sane!

Hey Mike, loans with that kind of interest are usually made by guys who don't ruin your credit rating when you don't pay so even if you can't psy the loan make sure you do pay your health insurance!

"KKK was/is ostensibly "Christian".

I think moost Evangelicals still have their KKK robes and hoods stored up in their attics just in case they are needed again.

Ph come on, it wasn't Trumps fault. He usually enters the truck by being dumped through the big door on the back of the truck.

"Former President Bill Clinton made another gaffe on the campaign trail, this time telling voters in Michigan to support Vice President Kamala Harris even if former President Donald Trump's economy "was better."

You're right! It was a gaffe because the economy was not really better during Trump's Presidency if you look at BIDEN'S ENTIRE pRESIDENCY AND NOT JUST THE PART THAT WAS DEALING WITH THE pANDEMIC. bUT, i his point, the Biden economy did suffer from the effects of the Pandemic. It recovered quite well since it has largely subsided. Perhaps if Trump had more aggressively combstted COVID the Pandemic would have been shorterand less deadly. I know this I do not want a science denier to be President the next timewe are hit with a health crisis. Are you a science denier too Gracie?

Many or even most of the divisions in America today date back to the Civil Rights era and have been with us from that time; cThe Right ombined several emotional issues to cd-1960's. Opposition to the Vietnam war was branded "unpatriotic" by conservatives because the reasoning behind that war was we were fighting sgainst "Godless Communism." And the right held onto that even after we came to our senses and got out of Vietnam but soon after that 9-11 happened and provided a "Pearl Harborlike Event" that George W. Bush used to justify invading Iraq though it is documented that the plsn had been laid out years before 9-11 so that we could capture Iraq's oil fields (PNAC). So the Right combined several emotional issues to create a powerful political force they combined white resentment of Civil Rights, simple minded flag waving patriotism, objections to birth control and abortion combined with Evangelical Christianity, fear of women's liberation and gay rights and called it opposition to "Woke". The Right gained significant power this way which is still exerting tremendous desire to move our nation back to what conservatives view as better times so I just wanted to pick one major part of their coalition and look at where it really came from. I'm old enough to remember the growth of the major parts of the conservative coalition appearing in American politics and when they seemed to join other parts to create what Trump named MAGA, though without specifying the year that was so great we should want to return to it but it is obviously in the past, probably 40-50 years ago.
