The outrage by the right... Not necessarily a good idea by Biden... But certainly no where as bad as what TFG and his VP say everyday.. youtu.be/UxbDm_QlAWQ?si=tJ2eHHToL23cK5wTx.com/JoeBiden/status/1851436643498037614Show more: Earlier today I referred to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump's supporter at his Madison Square Garden rally as garbage—which is the only word I can think of to describe it. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I meant to say. The comments at that rally don't reflect who we are as a nation. Unfortunately, maybe it does reflect who ‘we’ are as a nation? If it didn't this election wouldn’t be a contest. Enough people are either racists, misogynists or condone racism & misogyny for this to actually be a contest. Sadly. |

It was an unfortunate error on Biden's part, but he did the right thing and clarified. Both Harris and Walz clearly said that's not their opinion, they will be president for everyone, they're all about uniting the country etc. Unfortunately, MAGA is comparing it to Clinton's deplorables comment and trying to distract from the MSG comments |

Is anyone else getting nervous and anxious about the election? I'm trying not to panic, but I'm panicking. CNN has an article about Trump's plans for Musk and RFK Jr. if he is elected and I find both potential appointments horrifying. Musk may be a brilliant mind but my favorite thing about him is that he was born in South Africa and cannot run for president. RFK Jr. has outlandish opinions about vaccines, among other things. I read the article then closed the tab.
Tuesday is going to be stressful.

*** MSNBC just showed another ad with a voice over by Julia Roberts with the women all looking around and then agreeing with their hubbies that they of course voted 'the right way'. Voice over says no one will ever know.. when TFG loses by wide margins some people will know, just by the final numbers... 😊😊😊 |

Cannot wait until Trump wins and get to read all your moaning. If you could only stop with all your junk and think for yourselves instead of being led by the pathetic media you would not vote for the other pathetic candidate.

I've been nervous since Trump announced he was running as an attempt to avoid his legal troubles. Maybe even before then, when McConnell refused to vote to impeach him. |

Sadly, you're the one living in an alternate reality. If you don't trust mainstream media because Trump declared them "fake news" try reading or watching news from another country. BBC or Reuters for example. Or try thinking critically about why Trump deliberately and intentionally discredits the media and threatens to go after them. |

I wish that Trump supporters could see that most of the rest of the world views Trump as Democrats do - a threat to democracy. Regrettably, if General Milley, Mike Pence, John Kelly and the other Republicans who endorsed Harris can't convince die hard Trump supporters of the serious danger that Trump poses, I don't think anyone will break through. Somehow, Trump and conservative media have sold MAGA on this alternate reality and they believe all of it and mistakenly think they're in the majority. Other people are sane enough to recognize the bs but will vote for Trump anyway because of taxes, their investment portfolios, they've always voted Republican etc |

Oops... Another statue arises.. x.com/jbendery/status/1851679357439213585A reader in Philly has flagged another mysterious new monument that has magically appeared in a public park to "honor" Trump. It looks a lot like the ones popping up in DC. Titled "In Honor Of A Lifetime Of Sexual Assault," it features Trump's "grab em by the pu**y" comment. |

"" A bill called Stop Resistance Activities by Federal Employees Act was introduced in the House yesterday. It covers Federal employees at or above GS-15 and would impose very serious penalties for 'opposing, obstructing, or impeding lawful directives from the President, Vice President, or any other political appointee'. The language is.... well it's fascism. And I'm not exaggerating. And maybe it won't pass this time, but we all see the trend. "

This is well worth the 5 minute watch. When I saw what was said live on CNN I was disgusted. I'm also disappointed the Abby Phillip couldn't control her panel and didn't respond with strength and shut that magat down immeadiatly.

The benefits of telling lies for TFG!! Five states? Hope he has savings..... Kenneth Chesebro, an infamous legal ally of former President Donald Trump, has had his license to practice in New York suspended, Law & Crime reported on Thursday. Chesebro was the architect of a secret memo that outlined the illegal "fake elector" scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential election. He was charged in the Georgia election racketeering case and took a plea deal, alongside some of the other lawyers who helped Trump. *** One footnote in the decision said, “The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department advises that, as of March 2024, respondent was temporarily suspended by the Supreme Judicial Court for Suffolk County in Massachusetts. Moreover, respondent is listed as not eligible to practice law in California; inactive and not eligible to practice law in Florida; and voluntarily inactive in Illinois.”www.rawstory.com/chesebro-suspended/ |

If you could only stop with all your junk and think for yourselves instead of being led by the pathetic media you would not vote for the other pathetic candidate. I am a “foreigner”. I probably qualify for dual citizenship and just might look into that if it would give me an opportunity to vote. T is laughably where I live. We think he is a joke. Some countries want to see the US tumble and fall under T. It will give other countries the opportunity to become a world leader. World leaders have changed throughout history. T is a disgrace to humanity. Rude pompous ass. I read all types of media to get a rounded picture. Do you? Do you think for yourself? Do you do the research? Do you understand what May have happened if T was voted. He won’t be tho. Babbling dangerous idiot that might have crashed your country. Think about the fact that other countries are laughing and can’t wait to take over as a leader of the world. But it won’t happen because he will not win. Thank goodness for your country. |

Good heavens, Louis Gohmert has resurfaced.. He was cut off by a maga reporter!!! Gohmert made the remark during a Thursday afternoon interview on Real America's Voice when he was asked about President Joe Biden's comment that, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters." "His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done, everything we’ve been," Biden added. "But it is just how completely out of touch these people are with rank and file Americans," Gohmer said. "And let me tell you that there are some people, like the Marxists, they are kind of hoping that Trump will get elected so that they can create the chaos they've been trying to do for 50, 60 years."Before the Texas Republican could continue, host Beau Davidson ended the interview. "Well, thank you so much, Congressman," he said. "I hate to cut you off."Trump and his surrogates have repeatedly accused Vice President Kamala Harris of being a Marxist even though she is not. www.rawstory.com/louie-gohmert-2669551176/ |

Cannot wait until Trump wins and get to read all your moaning. If you could only stop with all your junk and think for yourselves instead of being led by the pathetic media you would not vote for the other pathetic candidate. the NYT very helpfully pointed out a possible source of your mis/disinformation and uninformed opinion www.nytimes.com/2024/10/31/us/politics/trump-harris-partisan-polls.htmlWhy the Right Thinks Trump Is Running Away With the Race
Skewed polls and anonymous betting markets are building up Republicans’ expectations. Donald Trump could use that to challenge the result.
The torrent of polls began arriving just a few weeks ago, one after the other, most showing a victory for Donald J. Trump.
They stood out amid the hundreds of others indicating a dead heat in the presidential election. But they had something in common: They were commissioned by right-leaning groups with a vested interest in promoting Republican strength.
These surveys have had marginal, if any, impact on polling averages, which either do not include the partisan polls or give them little weight. Yet some argue that the real purpose of partisan polls, along with other expectation-setting metrics such as political betting markets, is directed at a different goal entirely: building a narrative of unstoppable momentum for Mr. Trump.
The partisan polls appear focused on lifting Republican enthusiasm before the election and — perhaps more important — cementing the idea that the only way Mr. Trump can lose to Vice President Kamala Harris is if the election is rigged. Polls promising a Republican victory, the theory runs, could be held up as evidence of cheating if that victory does not come to pass.
“Republicans are clearly strategically putting polling into the information environment to try to create perceptions that Trump is stronger,” said Joshua Dyck, who directs the Center for Public Opinion at the University of Massachusetts at Lowell. “Their incentive is not necessarily to get the answer right.” |

A little more about Trump's lawsuit. It was filed in a Texas district with a single judge, the Trump appointed one who outlawed abortion drugs. And a letter and statement from CBS www.cnn.com/2024/10/23/media/cbs-news-trump-60-minutes-legal-threat/index.htmlLawyers for CBS News are rebuffing a legal threat from Donald Trump over the network’s “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris, telling the former president his demands are based on a “faulty premise.”
In a blunt letter to Trump’s legal counsel, the network on Wednesday said the First Amendment “fiercely protects” the editorial judgments made by “60 Minutes,” the network’s flagship newsmagazine.
“For that reason,” CBS said, Trump has no legal basis to sue, “and I note that you do not identify one,” the letter from CBS News senior Vice President for legal affairs Gayle C. Sproul stated. “Nor is there any legal basis for your demand that we provide you with the unedited transcript of the interview, which we decline to do.”In a two-page response obtained by CNN, Sproul wrote on Wednesday that Paltzik’s letter was “based on the faulty premise that ’60 Minutes distorted its interview” with Harris “in order to present her in a positive light.”
Sproul said “the interview was not doctored” and the newsmagazine “did not hide any part of the Vice President’s answer to the question at issue.”
Sproul also cited case law that defends editing and news judgments. “Editing is a necessity for all broadcasters to enable them to present the news in the time available, and that is what ’60 Minutes’ did here, as it does with its other reports,” she wrote.
www.cbsnews.com/news/a-statement-from-60-minutes/Former President Donald Trump's repeated claims against 60 Minutes are false.
• The interview was not doctored; and
• 60 Minutes did not hide any part of Vice President Kamala Harris's answer to the question at issue.
60 Minutes fairly presented the interview to inform the viewing audience, and not to mislead it.

A spokesperson for CBS News called the lawsuit “completely without merit” and said “60 Minutes” fairly presented the interview of Kamala Harris.
“This is obviously a public relations stunt, an attempt to undermine the credibility of not only Harris and not only of CBS News, but of all traditional mainstream legacy media,” said Robert Jensen, an emeritus professor of journalism at the University of Texas at Austin. “Traditional mainstream legacy media reports critically about Trump’s deceptions, his coarse language, his lies, his abusive language, and so Trump is always trying to undermine the credibility of those journalists.”
The lawsuit seeks unusually high damages of $10 billion, alleging that the editing of the interview “damaged President Trump’s fundraising and support values by several billions of dollars, particularly in Texas.” It demands that CBS post the full recording of the interview as well as the unedited transcript of Harris’s response.filed in TexasLisa Rubin @lawofruby

Let’s recap for a minute. Just tonight we find out the idiot is in debt by $2 Billiom and the debt is growing. According to a thread on twitter the idiot had more of a relationship with Jeffery Epstein then previously known. Brian Allen… ”BREAKING: New revelations from a transcript of Michael Wolff and James Truman’s podcast expose a twisted, toxic connection between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. In this bombshell conversation, Wolff and Truman break down Epstein’s firsthand accounts of Trump’s manipulative, egotistical, and often disturbing behavior. From Epstein’s stash of compromising photos to Trump’s financial illusions, the stories paint a picture of two men locked in a ruthless game of one-upmanship. THE BREAKDOWN 🧵🔥” x.com/allenanalysis/status/1852206076629745756?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nwLook at the comment he made tonight. Besides calling Liz Cheney dumb he said the following… Aaron Rupar.. ”Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face." x.com/atrupar/status/1852209432878342308?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw |
