I'm going to be an ACLU poll watcher tomorrow (complete with an official ACLU vest, to make me an even clearer target, here in South Dakota), and am quite prepared to deal with whatever bozos come my way. It helps that I'm a 70 year old retired history professor who also worked for the judicial system in a couple of states, which means I don't take crap from anybody any more.
She is a "she" which is even BRAVER and BETTER! Bravo, CroneEver! (I too am a fervent crone, and believe me NO ONE "gives no fucks" like us elder crones!)
When you think about where we’ve been and what we’ve had to face and fight in the past, I was a child of the 70’s and yes good music good boones farm wine but my first interview i was asked who’d keep my children? How will I get to work? And since your husband works here if there is conflict we’ll have to let you go because, well because, um we’ll have to.
Oh hell no they don’t because we don’t give a shit who says what or plays on first or what’s on second. Wait. Where was I? Oh and a short memory is a must for deniability but we don’t mind holding our wrist out for the bracelets either, as long as they’re padded. I don’t mind but authur doesn’t like the metal
Yay you! The ACLU is the most American organization in existence. I am a longtime, proud, card-carrying member of the ACLU and they are a beneficiary in my Will.
Nice! Suppprt you 100 percent!! I am here in South Dakota too! Ready for the pickup trucks rolling through the streets with their maga shit flying. There is a lot more blue yard signs than last time. Talked at length with my district Democratic representative. The ONLY candidate to knock on my door! Let's kick butt tomorrow!
Solidarity my friend! (stolen from Jess Piper, a wonderful writer from Missouri here on the Stack. She is terrific.
Along with Jeff and quite a few others, I really can't wait to read them every day.
I’ve got my stock pot as a helmet, my wooden baseball bat as my protection and an extra case of water at the ready if shit goes south. I’m leaving my Harris/Walz sign up just to add an element of danger and intrigue.
ROCK ON, dear lady!!! Hubby wouldn't let me put up Harris merch in our deeply red rural neighborhood, but I've got my eye on those yahoos. Fortunately, they had no qualms about advertising their stupidity. :D
I have blue hair to promote my choice. I’m 84, and I had my hair dyed to match my outfit for my grandson’s wedding, I liked it so much, I’ve kept it for over two years. It’s just a small area in the front of my grey, but I get many compliments on it.
Because he's the one that has to replace the garbage box and mailbox when the MAGAts destroy the stuff out by the road. We got tired of having to continually replace those items and call the police when our property was targeted because of our political beliefs.
My town is comprised of a plethora of red(neck) and undeniably peerless in vacuous idiocy… meaning my yard signs have been stolen multiple times! I hear you nk!!
On a recent episode of The Daily Show, when Michael Kosta was hosting, th kid ere was a video about a woman whose Harris/Walz signs were stolen so much, she bought little tracking devices and attached them to the replacement signs. I guess she had let the police know she was doing this; they caught up with the thief, and it was a mother with her two teenaged boys. The woman was floored that they would actually arrest her for stealing the signs. When police told her it was a felony, she said, “Oh, it is not! Just take them and go!” They took them, but they took her, too, in handcuffs. It was a beautiful thing!
My husband is also being extra cautious - and we live in a VERY BLUE state. But we do have some folks in the area that are not voting for democracy. He just wants to keep his 77 year old wife safe.
Good for him!! I'm only 70, so the hubby figures I can handle myself, lol. Actually, he's more concerned about the property damage, since we both work outside the home 6 days/week. And our daughter still lives with us, so that's a consideration as well. <3
Down in Fort Worth a neighbor threw a brick through our front room window because they didn't like our friend's playing the Beatle's Lady Madonna riff over and over on his Fender Rhodes piano.
Yup. We've lived here for 40 years... never had this problem until 2016. Suddenly, yard signs disappear, mailbox is destroyed, bashed, ripped out of the ground. I'll deal with that, though, cuz front room windows are hella expensive!! That's horrible!
The fact that this mother fucking rotting diaper rash maggot isn't in jail for making terroristic threats to the American public is fucking insane. Where's Garland is like Where's Waldo.
Go figure. Some bullshit about their board of directors. I know my mailman can't stand him. He has to give up his Sundays to work at Amazon collecting packages. He's looking for another job.
We are committed Dems in a very red rural area. We are peaceable people...but we have a 30-06 that resides in a safe but I know how to load and shoot as well as my spouse. Having said that, I very much doubt we will need to "defend da' castle"...but we certainly can, should it become necessary. I'm an election worker for this tiny rural town and I will be at the poll location most of the day. It will be very busy and VERY interesting, I'm sure...but no one expects anything worse than someone being annoyingly mouthy. Most of our residents know our town election official is a VERY formidable woman.
I'm a 77 yo woman, but no gun. I ask my husband if we should get one. He was a Coastie for 30+ years and carried a gun in his job. He doesn't WANT a gun so we don't have one (yet? - never say never!)
Yeah, because we don't fetishize guns like they do. Like those Christmas cards with the whole family, kids and all, loaded for bear and cosplaying like they're in some kind of dumbass action movie.
My MAGA neighbors think I'm crazy. I've thrown them off my property. I've tangled with a couple of them already. I want them to think I'm nuts. And they do. 🤣😂
"and we vote for my friend and your friend, Donald Trump Junior. Donald Trump. Jonald J. Trump.”
JFC. I was wondering what happened to Good Old Herschal. 🤣🤣 Still stupid. I'm spent with this whole damned election and embarrassing era of our history. My idiot brother tried to "both sides" me this morning and I'm in an even worse mood. Let's win and then welcome Jack Smith to finish things up. ✌️
So fucking sick of the both sides shit I am getting from strangers too—as soon as they say that I KNOW which side they are on, and it isn’t democracy’s.
(does your bother read this?) honestly, a trump voter in 2020 or 2024 (they were voting for a TV celebrity in 2016, I mean this IS America!) is, as you say, either willfully ignorant of what's going on or just too dumb to comprehend it.
The 'both sideisms' is a classic Russian Putin tactic. Trump has used all of them. Ya know what made him dangerous. He had the most evil creatures as role models. His Dad, Roy Cohn, Putin, Orban....
I keep seeing comments (in WaPo and NYT) that say we should “feel empathy” or “not sneer” at those who vote for Trump - unh-unh - I think they’re worth every bit of derision I feel for them. And I despise the idea they might saddle us with that orange carbuncle yet again.
Those days are long gone—these people are literally trying to destroy the country because of their own petty grievances, as well as their inability or unwillingness to understand the bigger picture, zero empathy!
I'm with you. My subscription to WaPo runs out early next year, and then I'm gone. I won't consider re-upping unless Lewis is fired, and the rest of the Murdochian transplants are also gone. Bezos needs to sell. Nothing they report on can be believed anymore.
Absolutely! I had the same idiot experience with two members of my family yesterday. Fortunately, the other 14 eligible voters in our family cancelled out their two votes. I’m so looking forward to the end of this election, Kamala winning, and the orange convict being sentenced this month and further prosecutions. I’m exhausted!!
Dealing with MAGATS in one’s family is damn near impossible. I’ve got 3 siblings that are cult members and it’s becoming difficult to have a neutral conversation with them. Don-old has done so much damage, not only to our country, but to many people’s family unit, as well.
My parents don't vote because of their religion, but that doesn't stop them from watching Fox News and OAN. My brother is a cultist through and through...Qanon, flat-earther, the whole 9 yards. I love my family dearly, I just don't understand how they are so hood-winked. They should KNOW BETTER. Especially my parents who know bible scripture and know about the prophecies of the anti-christ. It just kills me. I can't even have political talk around them at all. I just keep it to surface things.
it's not that it's not "allowed" it's more like they abstain from being "of the world". They are an offshoot of Jehovah's Witness, but from LONG ago. Like totally different. They follow someone that broke off from JW's named Charles Taze Russell. They call themselves the Bible Students. I grew up in this, but as soon as I had to 'stay home and do homework'...I never really went back except for conventions because I got to see all the kids and "aunts & uncles" that I grew up with from all over the world. They are all very dear people, just very different from me and my values.
I agree with you, Walter. I've been having pangs of guilt this morning asking myself what more I could have done earlier in the run-up to November 5th. Why oh why did I not try to call my brother's wife in TX and my husband's brother, sister, and nieces in Oklahoma to have a friendly (maybe) conversation about the election and what America will look like under the Harris vs. Trump administrations? I hope I'm not kicking myself about this for 4 years
I hear you I have two phony christian (prosperity gospel) brothers. I can't discuss much more than the weather with, and I have not bothered to mention I fall under the LGBTQ umbrella to them, although my non-religious sisters I told roughly when I figured it out.
'zackly! Whenever someone touts efforts to privatize government, I suggest that they use the word "profitize" because businesses need to make a profit to survive, government does not. Ergo, everything will be more expensive.
This was in a text from my mother this morning. It was surrounded by lots of other “usual stuff” they throw at you…”Who ever you are I am beginning to think you are the problem with society. You think you know everything, you are educated in everything and you are better than someone who may not think the same as you. You are trying to shove your beliefs down everyone’s throats if they don’t agree with you. It sounds as though you maybe a follower.”
A follower? Of what/who? I’m so sorry Jodi. This sounds like something my mother might have said to me. But you know what? We are educated and we have morals and standards. I won’t ever apologize for that.
That "you think you are better than someone who..." is the key term. I seriously doubt you have ever said to your mother, "I think I'm better than you." That whole category--thinking one is "better"--is an expression of their insecurity. THEY think you're better than they are (whatever "better" means). I know we've said a million times, "It's always projection with these people," but that's because it's always projection with these people.
Hence, too, their adoration of Trump, who trashes decency itself. They worship the worst person on earth because, if he's in charge, nobody is better or worse than anybody. Everybody's crap. So if THEY'RE crap (which they unconsciously fear), it's okay.
Thank you. I am many miles away from her and have been that way for many many years. I took a walk on the beach with my dogs after reading that. I’m good.
Uugh. So sorry. A friend was telling me about a man who was a member of the Moonie cult and is now (deprogrammed) a psychiatrist lecturing about this Trump business and he said it's 100% a cult and the best we can do is keep asking them why they think what they do, keep asking questions and keep the space open for them to come to their senses themselves. In sales we would always say, it takes and act of God to change someone's mind, so you sell to people like yourself and don't bother trying to convince others, let them come around. Sometimes they don't, but sometimes they do. Take care of yourself in the meantime.
Can’t believe that tRump actually dodged trials until AFTER the election! The justice system has failed us! He should have been tried, especially for the classified documents case, long ago
I really thought the 11th Circuit Court would slap down the loosest of Cannon’s when she unilaterally put the kabosh on the second most obvious crime committed by Don-old (after the insurrection).
How does one corrupt and newly appointed judge overrule the will of the American people? Trump stole top secret classified documents and distributed them to foreigners for fun and profit!
My brother is a mathematics genius, was recruited by our government out of HS, paid for his phd education in multiple fields… travels/works in China, Switzerland, along with other continents for our government. He’s a huge election denier and Trump tosspot , go figure Susan. I feel for you!
Sorry. When it's family, it's sad. Being educated or intelligent is only as good as what you do with it. My sibs are overeducated, and one couldn't vote for Obama because he would make us all Muslims. Go figure.
Love it Susan, Jershal Walker Jr. played football as a fullback and could run straight up the middle only to be tackled and that’s all, ever. What do you do when you already know the next play? You get hammered every time! He has got to quit this politics thingy too.
My favorite cocktail is Dr Pepper & Coconut Rum. 🥥🌴 I know it sounds weird, but if you happen to like Dr Pepper, it’s really good. I need to run to the store & get some Dr Pepper. I don’t keep it around all the time because then I drink too much soda.
The sheriffs problem is gonna remain. Like the police departments in small towns buying military equipment. Those thugs are a long term problem. But by Spring, I expect they’ll just be like boils on the backside, not spikes through the eyeballs. Will the GOP recover? I don’t see how. Their voters want a new Stalin. Maybe Tucker and Bannon will build a purely racist third party and walk away from the GOP as a legacy party.
Bannon's NY state criminal trial begins Dec 9 in Judge Juan Merchan's courtroom trial for fraud. His "Build The Wall' fund was raided by 3 men - two are serving prison time on the federal charges. Turd pardoned Bannon on the federal charges, so DA Alvin Bragg is trying him in NYC on non-pardonable state crime.
Woot woot, hope rises. As long as drumpf can prolong his destiny we won't see his ass thrown in jail. Wish he would've refused to leave the white house. Trespassing would've been a great first arrest since the fuckin gqp wouldn't convict.
I think he's got a jet ready to go if it looks like the election is going south., After all, he can still scream "Stop the steal!" and grift from Dubai.
I hope he does try to skip out on his jet ! A Felon on bail fleeing the jurisdiction ! No passport or flight plan ,possibly in possession of secret government documents! Oh! Boy ! The Air Force can try out some of those new missiles before giving them to the Ukrainian government ! A win ,win!
Venezuela is seems to be a country that is unfortunately used to dictators and other political vermin. Isn’t DonOld acquainted with one of their strongmen-types?
I’ve visited Colombia several times (wonderful place, highly recommend) but the Colombian government recommends staying faaaar away from the Venezuelan border. And the refugees and immigrants from Venezuela are heart breaking. So no, the spray painted hair line nazi definitely has not ever been there to experience any of the reality.
As much as I'd relish seeing all news coverage of him reduced to brief mentions of him sleep-farting in one or other courtroom, this is still a strong possibility.
Laribo, 😂😂. So worth clicking your link, tap list to enlarge. turd "comments" on list of countries to flee to priceless! "Angola" ("like in 'Bewitched'?)! For younger peeps here, that was a 1960's sitcom co-starring ENDORA as Samantha's mom.
As of 2018 (when the piece was written), Venezuela's extradition treaty agreement with the US was so routinely ignored by them that it didn't count as something you could count on. Not sure what its status is these days, but I found it an odd choice for him, given his lack of fondness for our neighbors to the south. Argentina, maybe, but anyplace else between Tijuana and Tierra del Fuego? Not so much.
I hope for the day soon when those who enabled pay some price for their transgressions. Those politicians pay the full due for their Faustian bargain to retain office. Those “news” agencies and commentators who espoused and gave voice to wannabe dictator’s hate. And a man who egregiously betrayed his country and oath of office, finally banished from polite society. That is a future tomorrow starting with the current tomorrow.
What did Liz Cheney say about their shame living forever? Sadly, even if Trump leaves the scene, and Republicans try to pretend it was all just an 8-year bad dream, the people who were all too willing to attach their lips to Trump's butt will be welcomed back into and given leadership in the party as if nothing ever happened.
I’ve always wondered what happened to all of the Epstein’s evidence, likely given to Trump by the criminally corrupt AG Bill Barr… he has the goods on all who show fealty to him for a reason David, I’m hopeful of the same!!
Fuck him. Fuck them. Long hard and fast. And not in a good way. Hopefully, this long national nightmare will be over soon. And we can go back to our shitty, imperfect Republic and work on it.
Yeah, but those Secret Service agents are no longer trustworthy. Those fuckers deleted all of their text messages from the time of the insurrection. Did any heads roll?
Nah. They are still in the SS and as a result, I trust them not at all.
If the investigation into the SS texts being deleted hasn’t been made public, what does that say about the likelihood of something really disturbing going on with them? Why haven’t any well known investigative reporters chimed in about this?
I'm pinning my hopes on it being one of those investigations with integrity and no leaks. Though there should have been some bad actors benched in the meantime, for sure.
Because corporate media no longer does "investigative journalism" they let New Republic, or Propublica, do it, then steal it and act like it is theirs.
Agree 100%! Deleted text messages and they got away with it. I am sick of no accountability anywhere from Trump to Hawley and Cruz to Jordan and Scott Perry, etc. to Eastman and Giuliani to the Secret Service. They should all be in jail!! These past 8 years have been insane and I want it to be over………..
Remember the ones who got caught being too drunk to work. Another group thought it would be funny to hire prostitutes. They got caught. They are just cops with a fancy name.
Position, authority, credentials, education mean nothing if the person is a miscreant. Look at Flynn, former Lt. Gen. He's a conspiracy insurrectionist nutcase. SS agents got caught hiring prostitutes in Colombia in 2012 and then trying to stiff them on the price (no pun intended but it just kinda happened).
This election may not be close. It may be a landslide for Harris. This is not just my gut or heart or some other organ telling me that, but the likes of M. Moore , Ann Selzer (Iowa pollster) and others. Due to this - possible - overwhelming defeat, MAGA's may not even be able to muster enough energy for a violent response. May it be so. And then we begin rebuilding.
My gut tells me that MAGA violence and uprisings will fizzle because their leader has fizzled. Women are going to deliver to Trump and the jerks who support him an epic ass-kicking - not just my gut, but the ppl you cited and Simon Rosenberg.
MAGAs are like the Energizer Bunny. They never run out of steam. They've been at this for 8 years now. They're just more covert since 1/6/21. Why do you think he's wearing gold and black all of a sudden? It's a signal to the Proud Boys. I think this time the real diehards will become more sophisticated with their violence as in bombing election sites or state houses. I doubt that you'll see my all time favorite this time around - the Shaman guy. He's in prison and I doubt that anyone will try and take his place. Good luck getting near the Capitol this time, but you can't protect every election site in the country. I think the idea of many years in prison will deter most of the types you saw on 1/6/21. The radical cultists aren't going to give up Trump.
The radical cultist will not give up Trump but they may have to go into hiding again (I doubt they will want to rise up for their leader). This time, however, let's not allow them to conspire in darkness of our own collective political unconscious. In other words, I hope we've learned something. Making darkness conscious is the work ahead.
The whole men-against-women vibe that the Trump campaign has taken on has started to remind me of the Barbie movie - Trump wants to have a mojo dojo casa white house. Of course, the Barbies overcame the Kens in the end, and everyone was better off for it.
We did as well and got confirmation the very next day that the county election office received our ballots. This election eve is particularly stressful as we anxiously wait for this MAGA shitshow nightmare to hopefully be done and over with. Demented Donnie believes he's several yards from the end zone but better yet, let's think it's more like The End for him.
This feels like the longest day of my life. Time will pass even slower tomorrow. It's an advantage being on the west coast because I have to distract myself only until about 5 pm or so when there ought to be something significant to report from the east.
Lucky for you Ann, enjoy a good book, go for a nice walk or ride, with a smile on your face.. or just dream of the end of a tyrannical connards days in the spotlight!
Thank you everyone! For being here when I needed a laugh, and to be talked off the ledge. I appreciate it. Now it's time to win and win BIG! Then we attended to the task of flushing the maga turds down the toilet of history.
I'm going to be an ACLU poll watcher tomorrow (complete with an official ACLU vest, to make me an even clearer target, here in South Dakota), and am quite prepared to deal with whatever bozos come my way. It helps that I'm a 70 year old retired history professor who also worked for the judicial system in a couple of states, which means I don't take crap from anybody any more.
you rock
I’m going up there to help him.
Unless it’s too cold.
Or I have appointments
Or you know anything could happen but otherwise he can count on me. For sure. If nothing happens…
She is a "she" which is even BRAVER and BETTER! Bravo, CroneEver! (I too am a fervent crone, and believe me NO ONE "gives no fucks" like us elder crones!)
Elder crones rock!
When you think about where we’ve been and what we’ve had to face and fight in the past, I was a child of the 70’s and yes good music good boones farm wine but my first interview i was asked who’d keep my children? How will I get to work? And since your husband works here if there is conflict we’ll have to let you go because, well because, um we’ll have to.
Oh hell no they don’t because we don’t give a shit who says what or plays on first or what’s on second. Wait. Where was I? Oh and a short memory is a must for deniability but we don’t mind holding our wrist out for the bracelets either, as long as they’re padded. I don’t mind but authur doesn’t like the metal
You’re a hero too!
Thank you for your commitment to our democracy. Respect. 🤜🏽🤛🏽
Yay you! The ACLU is the most American organization in existence. I am a longtime, proud, card-carrying member of the ACLU and they are a beneficiary in my Will.
I worked fo them for a while, back in the early aughts. Been a member since 1975 and still am a Guardian of Liberty. They do rock.
Good luck and thank you. I hope it all goes smoothly OR you give them hell
I’d give anything to join you. I’m 65 but I worked with men for thirty years so I got tha thick skin-maybe not literally but you know…
Gratitude and respect. And you be careful. This cruddy bunch gives massive sucker punches.
Crone, thank you 🇺🇸🗽🗽
Yay!!!!!!
Still, please be careful because teenage drump supporters are beating up 70+ year old women.
What? Where?
18 year-olds trumper kid brandished a machete on two older women in Neptune, FL. The kid was shocked when they arrested him.
He’s lucky they were Dems and weren’t armed. Especially in Floriduh
As fellow SD resident here, thank you for being one of the few level headed here in the blood red Rushmore State
Stay safe 🙏🏽
Nice! Suppprt you 100 percent!! I am here in South Dakota too! Ready for the pickup trucks rolling through the streets with their maga shit flying. There is a lot more blue yard signs than last time. Talked at length with my district Democratic representative. The ONLY candidate to knock on my door! Let's kick butt tomorrow!
Solidarity my friend! (stolen from Jess Piper, a wonderful writer from Missouri here on the Stack. She is terrific.
Along with Jeff and quite a few others, I really can't wait to read them every day.
Good on you Crone!!
I love it. Good luck!
Right on brother!
You’re a hero!
I’ve got my stock pot as a helmet, my wooden baseball bat as my protection and an extra case of water at the ready if shit goes south. I’m leaving my Harris/Walz sign up just to add an element of danger and intrigue.
ROCK ON, dear lady!!! Hubby wouldn't let me put up Harris merch in our deeply red rural neighborhood, but I've got my eye on those yahoos. Fortunately, they had no qualms about advertising their stupidity. :D
Mine won't either. So, I painted some pumpkins blue instead. And wear my Harris shirts around town.
Can’t wait until the patriarchy dies!
R'Amen!
I have blue hair to promote my choice. I’m 84, and I had my hair dyed to match my outfit for my grandson’s wedding, I liked it so much, I’ve kept it for over two years. It’s just a small area in the front of my grey, but I get many compliments on it.
Good for you!! <3
Why does your husband get the final say? Damn! Julia Roberts was right. 😩
Because he's the one that has to replace the garbage box and mailbox when the MAGAts destroy the stuff out by the road. We got tired of having to continually replace those items and call the police when our property was targeted because of our political beliefs.
Yeah, that's totally fair and I'm sorry you have to put up with the stupid assholes who did that.
Thank you. I'm sorry too, since I was rather fond of advertising for my preferred candidates, but it got expensive and time consuming. *sigh*
And the front room window (see my story above.)
What I was thinking!
KL - my feeling exactly
My town is comprised of a plethora of red(neck) and undeniably peerless in vacuous idiocy… meaning my yard signs have been stolen multiple times! I hear you nk!!
On a recent episode of The Daily Show, when Michael Kosta was hosting, th kid ere was a video about a woman whose Harris/Walz signs were stolen so much, she bought little tracking devices and attached them to the replacement signs. I guess she had let the police know she was doing this; they caught up with the thief, and it was a mother with her two teenaged boys. The woman was floored that they would actually arrest her for stealing the signs. When police told her it was a felony, she said, “Oh, it is not! Just take them and go!” They took them, but they took her, too, in handcuffs. It was a beautiful thing!
That was a fun story.
Yes, Apple air pod tags. Designed to help you locate your luggage when they lose it!
Or Tile, the Android version. We had a good experience with them in Barcelona. Recommended.
Didn't know there was one! Figures there should be.
Too bad you couldn't have booby-trapped it, to spray them with cat-piss, or skunk musk!
My husband is also being extra cautious - and we live in a VERY BLUE state. But we do have some folks in the area that are not voting for democracy. He just wants to keep his 77 year old wife safe.
Good for him!! I'm only 70, so the hubby figures I can handle myself, lol. Actually, he's more concerned about the property damage, since we both work outside the home 6 days/week. And our daughter still lives with us, so that's a consideration as well. <3
Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor.
Down in Fort Worth a neighbor threw a brick through our front room window because they didn't like our friend's playing the Beatle's Lady Madonna riff over and over on his Fender Rhodes piano.
Yup. We've lived here for 40 years... never had this problem until 2016. Suddenly, yard signs disappear, mailbox is destroyed, bashed, ripped out of the ground. I'll deal with that, though, cuz front room windows are hella expensive!! That's horrible!
D:
They missed Michael by a few feet. "Surprisingly" when we went outside to see who did it, the street was empty.
Since then, I can't hear that song without remembering that day.
Sorry to hear of this bullshit on your place. Once their avatar is defeated, I think the MAGA 'power' will fade some.
There will be others who seek to replace it.
VD Vance doesn't have the barking Yam's "charisma".
The fact that this mother fucking rotting diaper rash maggot isn't in jail for making terroristic threats to the American public is fucking insane. Where's Garland is like Where's Waldo.
And while I would hope he'd have been on the Sotomayor wing had the Hate Turtle ever allowed confirmation hearings, who knows?
Alito would have kicked sand in his face & he probably would have rolled over for a belly scratch.
I'm sure there's a nice position waiting for him in some worthless org like the Brookings Institute.
Or the Hoover Institute. Where politicians go to watch their careers go down the toilet.
Oooh, even better.
Not enough of the r's sadly.
Hiding in the fetal position under his desk Lisa… what’s up with this administration and Dejoy, Powell and Bibi fuckery is another good question!
How is dejoy still employed?
Go figure. Some bullshit about their board of directors. I know my mailman can't stand him. He has to give up his Sundays to work at Amazon collecting packages. He's looking for another job.
I'm sure looking forward to the announcement of his "resignation."
Yup, getting my torch and pitchfork ready:-) For some inexplicable reason (JK - it's stupidity), they think we won't or can't fight.
Trump would find out how many of us women he wants to force his "protection" on are actually armed already.
We are committed Dems in a very red rural area. We are peaceable people...but we have a 30-06 that resides in a safe but I know how to load and shoot as well as my spouse. Having said that, I very much doubt we will need to "defend da' castle"...but we certainly can, should it become necessary. I'm an election worker for this tiny rural town and I will be at the poll location most of the day. It will be very busy and VERY interesting, I'm sure...but no one expects anything worse than someone being annoyingly mouthy. Most of our residents know our town election official is a VERY formidable woman.
Thank you for your service.
The repubs don't have all the toys, that's true enough. ;-)
I learned a long time ago, quick knee to the gonads and run like hell.
And they think Dems don't own guns. Hell, Kamala has a fking Glock.
I'm a 79-year-old woman, who voted for Kamala, and owns a Glock.
Yeah, the NRA didn’t think it through so well.
I have a pitchfork too:)
I'm a 77 yo woman, but no gun. I ask my husband if we should get one. He was a Coastie for 30+ years and carried a gun in his job. He doesn't WANT a gun so we don't have one (yet? - never say never!)
Hairspray + lighter equals flamethrower.
Me too- exactly
Yeah, because we don't fetishize guns like they do. Like those Christmas cards with the whole family, kids and all, loaded for bear and cosplaying like they're in some kind of dumbass action movie.
Back when I worked corporate security, the head of our department (former BATF agent) used to call them "barrel suckers".
A picturesque term.
My friends at border patrol called them hand cannons mostly six shooters of course.
I might have a Colt 6920 somewhere around here.
S&W's in my family and we target shoot quite often.
😂😂😂 You go girl...living dangerously, I see!
Danger Mouse lives!
😂😂
Kay-El, 🇺🇸🗽 😂 on stockpot
I remember when I was a kid, there was a grandma down the street who chased kids who got in her yard with a wooden spoon! Mean. Just a suggestion.
I have plenty of those too
My MAGA neighbors think I'm crazy. I've thrown them off my property. I've tangled with a couple of them already. I want them to think I'm nuts. And they do. 🤣😂
THATS MY GIRL! 😂😂😂😂😂 God, I cant wait to meet you!
Me too, sister😉
Nice Lisa!
This is an excellent strategy. One of the few things idiot bullies fear is crazy.
❤️😉👏👏👏
Don't forget the wasp spray.
Thank you for your service. 😁
"and we vote for my friend and your friend, Donald Trump Junior. Donald Trump. Jonald J. Trump.”
JFC. I was wondering what happened to Good Old Herschal. 🤣🤣 Still stupid. I'm spent with this whole damned election and embarrassing era of our history. My idiot brother tried to "both sides" me this morning and I'm in an even worse mood. Let's win and then welcome Jack Smith to finish things up. ✌️
So fucking sick of the both sides shit I am getting from strangers too—as soon as they say that I KNOW which side they are on, and it isn’t democracy’s.
Exactly right. It tells me they dont/cant/wont read, that their value system is very low, and they are just stupid. There. I said it. 😂😂
(does your bother read this?) honestly, a trump voter in 2020 or 2024 (they were voting for a TV celebrity in 2016, I mean this IS America!) is, as you say, either willfully ignorant of what's going on or just too dumb to comprehend it.
He can barely read. 🤷🏼♀️
The worst kind of hate is Christian love.
The 'both sideisms' is a classic Russian Putin tactic. Trump has used all of them. Ya know what made him dangerous. He had the most evil creatures as role models. His Dad, Roy Cohn, Putin, Orban....
I keep seeing comments (in WaPo and NYT) that say we should “feel empathy” or “not sneer” at those who vote for Trump - unh-unh - I think they’re worth every bit of derision I feel for them. And I despise the idea they might saddle us with that orange carbuncle yet again.
Those days are long gone—these people are literally trying to destroy the country because of their own petty grievances, as well as their inability or unwillingness to understand the bigger picture, zero empathy!
And, yes I have canceled my WaPo subscription (it’s still good through January) and am seriously leaning toward doing the same with the NYT.
I'm with you. My subscription to WaPo runs out early next year, and then I'm gone. I won't consider re-upping unless Lewis is fired, and the rest of the Murdochian transplants are also gone. Bezos needs to sell. Nothing they report on can be believed anymore.
Do it, they have all failed democracy. Joe Kahn of The NYT said "it's not their job to defend democracy!" and don't deserve to be relevant.
But Cathy, they're so loving towards us. You know, Peace, Love and... fuck 'em.
Who reads the WaPo anymore? Not me.
Absolutely! I had the same idiot experience with two members of my family yesterday. Fortunately, the other 14 eligible voters in our family cancelled out their two votes. I’m so looking forward to the end of this election, Kamala winning, and the orange convict being sentenced this month and further prosecutions. I’m exhausted!!
Dealing with MAGATS in one’s family is damn near impossible. I’ve got 3 siblings that are cult members and it’s becoming difficult to have a neutral conversation with them. Don-old has done so much damage, not only to our country, but to many people’s family unit, as well.
Dig that ! Every single thing that they can fuck up They do ! Just because!!!🤬🤯
Com’on Kamala time to clean this shithouse out once and for all!👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️the scales need balancing!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
So much damage
My parents don't vote because of their religion, but that doesn't stop them from watching Fox News and OAN. My brother is a cultist through and through...Qanon, flat-earther, the whole 9 yards. I love my family dearly, I just don't understand how they are so hood-winked. They should KNOW BETTER. Especially my parents who know bible scripture and know about the prophecies of the anti-christ. It just kills me. I can't even have political talk around them at all. I just keep it to surface things.
Jenny, just out of curiosity, what religion does not allow voting. First time in my life I have heard that. And I studied religions a long time ago.
it's not that it's not "allowed" it's more like they abstain from being "of the world". They are an offshoot of Jehovah's Witness, but from LONG ago. Like totally different. They follow someone that broke off from JW's named Charles Taze Russell. They call themselves the Bible Students. I grew up in this, but as soon as I had to 'stay home and do homework'...I never really went back except for conventions because I got to see all the kids and "aunts & uncles" that I grew up with from all over the world. They are all very dear people, just very different from me and my values.
Jenny, thank you. That's actually pretty interesting.
I just refuse to talk politics. There's no getting through the brainwashing 🤦
I agree with you, Walter. I've been having pangs of guilt this morning asking myself what more I could have done earlier in the run-up to November 5th. Why oh why did I not try to call my brother's wife in TX and my husband's brother, sister, and nieces in Oklahoma to have a friendly (maybe) conversation about the election and what America will look like under the Harris vs. Trump administrations? I hope I'm not kicking myself about this for 4 years
I’m excited about Texas and the end of Ted Cruz. Colin Allred has been kicking Ted’s ass all over the Lone Star state.
Oh please universe, make that happen!
I hear you I have two phony christian (prosperity gospel) brothers. I can't discuss much more than the weather with, and I have not bothered to mention I fall under the LGBTQ umbrella to them, although my non-religious sisters I told roughly when I figured it out.
Right there with you. And the corporate owned news can go straight to hell. 🙄
For-Profit News! They should say it EVERY TIME…😒
'zackly! Whenever someone touts efforts to privatize government, I suggest that they use the word "profitize" because businesses need to make a profit to survive, government does not. Ergo, everything will be more expensive.
For keeping their shareholders profitable and tax free, along with their puppet masters P123
Yes!!!!👍🏻
That’s ’Billionaire owned media’.
You got that right. 👍🏻
👍👍
😅👏
This was in a text from my mother this morning. It was surrounded by lots of other “usual stuff” they throw at you…”Who ever you are I am beginning to think you are the problem with society. You think you know everything, you are educated in everything and you are better than someone who may not think the same as you. You are trying to shove your beliefs down everyone’s throats if they don’t agree with you. It sounds as though you maybe a follower.”
A follower? Of what/who? I’m so sorry Jodi. This sounds like something my mother might have said to me. But you know what? We are educated and we have morals and standards. I won’t ever apologize for that.
No apologies are necessary when calling a Nazi a Nazi!
Wow. How sad is it that your mom would send that to you. 😢
That "you think you are better than someone who..." is the key term. I seriously doubt you have ever said to your mother, "I think I'm better than you." That whole category--thinking one is "better"--is an expression of their insecurity. THEY think you're better than they are (whatever "better" means). I know we've said a million times, "It's always projection with these people," but that's because it's always projection with these people.
Hence, too, their adoration of Trump, who trashes decency itself. They worship the worst person on earth because, if he's in charge, nobody is better or worse than anybody. Everybody's crap. So if THEY'RE crap (which they unconsciously fear), it's okay.
Wow! So well said! Thank you.
Toxic as hell, I am so sorry. I hope you are in a place where you can distance yourself mentally and physically from her.
Thank you. I am many miles away from her and have been that way for many many years. I took a walk on the beach with my dogs after reading that. I’m good.
Virtual hugs to you!
They sure do!
Uugh. So sorry. A friend was telling me about a man who was a member of the Moonie cult and is now (deprogrammed) a psychiatrist lecturing about this Trump business and he said it's 100% a cult and the best we can do is keep asking them why they think what they do, keep asking questions and keep the space open for them to come to their senses themselves. In sales we would always say, it takes and act of God to change someone's mind, so you sell to people like yourself and don't bother trying to convince others, let them come around. Sometimes they don't, but sometimes they do. Take care of yourself in the meantime.
Wow, just wow 🤯
I’m sorry your mother said this to you. Apparently, she’s not on board with critical thinkers
Clearly not. Thanks.
Bat shit crazy, sorry to hear this Jodi!
Oh NO!!!! Not a follower. That's, well, really weird.
Jodi, that is actually pretty sad. I'm sorry your relationship with your mom is that bad.
Yes we deal in "facts" not "beliefs.
Jonald J Kampf
LOL!!
Can’t believe that tRump actually dodged trials until AFTER the election! The justice system has failed us! He should have been tried, especially for the classified documents case, long ago
I really thought the 11th Circuit Court would slap down the loosest of Cannon’s when she unilaterally put the kabosh on the second most obvious crime committed by Don-old (after the insurrection).
How does one corrupt and newly appointed judge overrule the will of the American people? Trump stole top secret classified documents and distributed them to foreigners for fun and profit!
Reality Winner would like a word.
Trump does have until EoD today to file a response to the appeal.
Trump is a tyrannical, traitorous, tosspot! Anyone who’s failed to recognize that fact is blind, which would be our justice system Walter!!
Cannon should be fired...out of her namesake.
My brother is a mathematics genius, was recruited by our government out of HS, paid for his phd education in multiple fields… travels/works in China, Switzerland, along with other continents for our government. He’s a huge election denier and Trump tosspot , go figure Susan. I feel for you!
That’s so sad. 😞
Sorry. When it's family, it's sad. Being educated or intelligent is only as good as what you do with it. My sibs are overeducated, and one couldn't vote for Obama because he would make us all Muslims. Go figure.
When I hear about very intelligent people supporting Don-old, it blows my mind.
This speaks to the power of the cult. What synapses aren’t firing in their big brain that allows for the craziness of MAGA to be justified?
Love it Susan, Jershal Walker Jr. played football as a fullback and could run straight up the middle only to be tackled and that’s all, ever. What do you do when you already know the next play? You get hammered every time! He has got to quit this politics thingy too.
Hershel was fast but not at all elusive. That's why he was a mediocre pro back.
Yes, this, Susan ⬆️.
I got into this with a neighbor last night and almost ruined what was otherwise a wonderful weekend. Ugh. Vote BLUE💙
I’m exhausted-I know you are too. I’ll be drinking either way tomorrow night! 😂. Miss you. 💙
My favorite cocktail is Dr Pepper & Coconut Rum. 🥥🌴 I know it sounds weird, but if you happen to like Dr Pepper, it’s really good. I need to run to the store & get some Dr Pepper. I don’t keep it around all the time because then I drink too much soda.
But I’m gonna need it tomorrow evening.
Dr. Pepper just released a creamy coconut flavor.
MMM sounds delish to me. Wonkette's bartender Hooper, gave the recipe for Pina Coladas one night, that was my favorite.
Miss you too! And I’ll be with you side by side in spirit, and with “spirit(s)!” 🥃🥂🍷🍹🍺
State of Georgia: Are you happy now that Hershel Walker lost his run for Senator? Yeah, I’ll bet.
Tell your brother that there is the right side, and the wrong side. Period.
My (stupid) sister does that every time I see her, I spend my whole visit de-programming her only to have to do it again next time.
One too many dive plays for the old RB. 😂😂
The sheriffs problem is gonna remain. Like the police departments in small towns buying military equipment. Those thugs are a long term problem. But by Spring, I expect they’ll just be like boils on the backside, not spikes through the eyeballs. Will the GOP recover? I don’t see how. Their voters want a new Stalin. Maybe Tucker and Bannon will build a purely racist third party and walk away from the GOP as a legacy party.
Enjoy the day, my homies! Keep Calm-a-la!!!!!!!
Bannon's NY state criminal trial begins Dec 9 in Judge Juan Merchan's courtroom trial for fraud. His "Build The Wall' fund was raided by 3 men - two are serving prison time on the federal charges. Turd pardoned Bannon on the federal charges, so DA Alvin Bragg is trying him in NYC on non-pardonable state crime.
I forgot about ol’ raspberry face, Bannon’s, upcoming criminal trial! The hits just keep on coming. 😊
I'm hoping Bannon will be required to attend court in person, limiting his time for f*ckery.
Please let it be televised!
Oh whoopee. Three shirts guy is out just in time for court.
Woot woot, hope rises. As long as drumpf can prolong his destiny we won't see his ass thrown in jail. Wish he would've refused to leave the white house. Trespassing would've been a great first arrest since the fuckin gqp wouldn't convict.
Yep, guessing he’s about to be rung up Teri!
Hope he nails him Bannon is slime
Maybe he will do us all a favor and flee the country. Or would he then escape accountability?
I think he's got a jet ready to go if it looks like the election is going south., After all, he can still scream "Stop the steal!" and grift from Dubai.
He did mention Venezuela.
Does Venezuela allow felons, illegal immigrants?
I hope he does try to skip out on his jet ! A Felon on bail fleeing the jurisdiction ! No passport or flight plan ,possibly in possession of secret government documents! Oh! Boy ! The Air Force can try out some of those new missiles before giving them to the Ukrainian government ! A win ,win!
Only kidding J.Edgar !😜😅😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
😂😂😂 One can dream.
Venezuela is seems to be a country that is unfortunately used to dictators and other political vermin. Isn’t DonOld acquainted with one of their strongmen-types?
He’d better start studying Spanish.
Teri, I saw an interview of Steven Miller (ack ack ack!) when he was in Venezuela. Miller had stated that Venezuela was safe compared to the US.
The Venezuelan reporter kept asking him, “Have you been to this place? Have you visited this city? Do you know what it is like to live in fear here?”
Of course, Miller refused to answer.
I’ve visited Colombia several times (wonderful place, highly recommend) but the Colombian government recommends staying faaaar away from the Venezuelan border. And the refugees and immigrants from Venezuela are heart breaking. So no, the spray painted hair line nazi definitely has not ever been there to experience any of the reality.
Well they did welcome the Nazis post WWII.
Of course they will take him. He has money. It's almost impossible to extradite.
No extradition treaty.
I don’t see drumph going to Venezuela. But, I can see Hungary or Russia.
Unfortunately
Who could hide Don-old? Maybe he can get a job as a greeter in one of those fantastic Moscow grocery stores that Fucker Tarlson loves.
Touché Walter!
I don’t want his fat ass to flee! I want him to collect fleas while being in prison.
< insert drum sting here >
And a few other maladies.
As much as I'd relish seeing all news coverage of him reduced to brief mentions of him sleep-farting in one or other courtroom, this is still a strong possibility.
https://www.antfarmersalmanac.com/2018/05/flight-plan.html
Laribo, 😂😂. So worth clicking your link, tap list to enlarge. turd "comments" on list of countries to flee to priceless! "Angola" ("like in 'Bewitched'?)! For younger peeps here, that was a 1960's sitcom co-starring ENDORA as Samantha's mom.
That’s hilarious! (Russia DT❤️VP) Venezuela - where he’s said he could go - isn’t on the list.
As of 2018 (when the piece was written), Venezuela's extradition treaty agreement with the US was so routinely ignored by them that it didn't count as something you could count on. Not sure what its status is these days, but I found it an odd choice for him, given his lack of fondness for our neighbors to the south. Argentina, maybe, but anyplace else between Tijuana and Tierra del Fuego? Not so much.
I’m counting on his flight to obscurity!
....constitutional sheriff's legal militias that talk Trump gibberish. Scary
When Harris becomes president we're going to have to look into this problem.
Washington State has a very big problem, even in the saner areas. Some parts of the country are full-on overrun by this plague. Like locusts.
Every law enforcement office has been militarized…truly a sad state of affairs for this nation Chris!
And carry on-a-la!
😂😂😂
If you haven’t seen Steven Colbert’s impression of Eric Trump, check it out. Spot on.
Lisa, I’m a big fan of Jimmy Kimmel, as well.
😂😂
Ditto Neal!!
Yes - it was in a small town in Florida - that got smacked by a spin-off tornado (pun intended) that destroyed the sheriff’s office! 😁😂
Wasn't it like the next day?
Couldn't make that stuff up.
Lisa, that sounds familiar now that you mention it.
That sheriff looks like someone who has made more than one comment online asking why only Black people get to say the n-word.
100%
I blame Joe “Pink Underwear” Arpaio for starting this trend or at least enabling it to take hold.
Poignant Kay/EI!!
The Arizona Ass
Kay-El, we had a swinging dick sheriff long before AZ. Now he is running for governor. He won't win. Not even close.
Those guys are the absolute worst. Glad he’s going to get creamed.
What we got he ear is a failure to communicate! Friggen Grand Poo bah of the KLAN ….. no doubt about it ! You shakin that bush Luke ?
My late sister loved that line from Cool Hand Luke
So do I.
Absolutely Alison!
He's a pretty famous nutbar, yeah.
I’ve gone from “I’m sorry to tell you the tests show cancer” pessimism to “Our oncology team will cure you on Tuesday” optimism.
Back to canvassing in the rain.
Your canvassing in the rain (x thousands of other volunteers) is exactly WHY the cancer will be cured.
Thank you!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for your service.
Hugs to you ..if you want them (I'm all about consent.)
I hope for the day soon when those who enabled pay some price for their transgressions. Those politicians pay the full due for their Faustian bargain to retain office. Those “news” agencies and commentators who espoused and gave voice to wannabe dictator’s hate. And a man who egregiously betrayed his country and oath of office, finally banished from polite society. That is a future tomorrow starting with the current tomorrow.
What did Liz Cheney say about their shame living forever? Sadly, even if Trump leaves the scene, and Republicans try to pretend it was all just an 8-year bad dream, the people who were all too willing to attach their lips to Trump's butt will be welcomed back into and given leadership in the party as if nothing ever happened.
Nancy, you are right. It's gonna take a generation at least.
Nauseating thought, but true
💯 David
I’ve always wondered what happened to all of the Epstein’s evidence, likely given to Trump by the criminally corrupt AG Bill Barr… he has the goods on all who show fealty to him for a reason David, I’m hopeful of the same!!
I have my conspiracy theory too. First what it may reveal re: Trump. Second, what it may reveal re: others. I don’t think we ever know.
I suspect that's what he has on some republicans. Bill Barr just wanted to get the blackmail pics on his dad, who shared Epstein's predilection.
👏🏻🥹👏🏻
I’m visioning Kamala 357 Electoral Votes. 🧘⭐️🇺🇸
That would be fantastic! Obama won 365 electoral votes in 2008. Anything is possible!!
Yes, please. Just win!!!
That number really should surpass Biden’s by that and much more since we have some Repubs and Independents on our side.
In my heart of hearts, I want over 400. Fucking Bush Sr did it, why not the amazing Kamala???
Nice vision 👌
Fuck him. Fuck them. Long hard and fast. And not in a good way. Hopefully, this long national nightmare will be over soon. And we can go back to our shitty, imperfect Republic and work on it.
Yes. We'll get to work on it.
👍👍🇺🇸
I wish he wouldn'ta left the WH either. The sight of the Secret Service physically removing him from the premises woulda been priceless.
Yeah, but those Secret Service agents are no longer trustworthy. Those fuckers deleted all of their text messages from the time of the insurrection. Did any heads roll?
Nah. They are still in the SS and as a result, I trust them not at all.
If the investigation into the SS texts being deleted hasn’t been made public, what does that say about the likelihood of something really disturbing going on with them? Why haven’t any well known investigative reporters chimed in about this?
I'm pinning my hopes on it being one of those investigations with integrity and no leaks. Though there should have been some bad actors benched in the meantime, for sure.
Exactly, Gally! 💯
A question for the times Gailly!
Because corporate media no longer does "investigative journalism" they let New Republic, or Propublica, do it, then steal it and act like it is theirs.
Agree 100%! Deleted text messages and they got away with it. I am sick of no accountability anywhere from Trump to Hawley and Cruz to Jordan and Scott Perry, etc. to Eastman and Giuliani to the Secret Service. They should all be in jail!! These past 8 years have been insane and I want it to be over………..
They should all be in jail
Some are acting like the original SS
The Secret Service has always been above reproach. What the hell happened?
Remember the ones who got caught being too drunk to work. Another group thought it would be funny to hire prostitutes. They got caught. They are just cops with a fancy name.
Position, authority, credentials, education mean nothing if the person is a miscreant. Look at Flynn, former Lt. Gen. He's a conspiracy insurrectionist nutcase. SS agents got caught hiring prostitutes in Colombia in 2012 and then trying to stiff them on the price (no pun intended but it just kinda happened).
Too many conservative Q-anoners.
Good point Walter!
All time historically great video it would make H11!
Jeff, now that you've endorsed Kamala, how many times do you plan to vote for her? We all want to know.
https://neelthakrebew.substack.com/p/gop-freaks-out
as many times as the law allows
But I have evidence... do you care to comment?
LOL
This election may not be close. It may be a landslide for Harris. This is not just my gut or heart or some other organ telling me that, but the likes of M. Moore , Ann Selzer (Iowa pollster) and others. Due to this - possible - overwhelming defeat, MAGA's may not even be able to muster enough energy for a violent response. May it be so. And then we begin rebuilding.
My gut tells me that MAGA violence and uprisings will fizzle because their leader has fizzled. Women are going to deliver to Trump and the jerks who support him an epic ass-kicking - not just my gut, but the ppl you cited and Simon Rosenberg.
I like that gut of yours Ann!
He's a creepy bugger, who doesn't "people" well. He's like one of those changelings, not quite normal enough to pass for human. DeathSantis too.
MAGAs are like the Energizer Bunny. They never run out of steam. They've been at this for 8 years now. They're just more covert since 1/6/21. Why do you think he's wearing gold and black all of a sudden? It's a signal to the Proud Boys. I think this time the real diehards will become more sophisticated with their violence as in bombing election sites or state houses. I doubt that you'll see my all time favorite this time around - the Shaman guy. He's in prison and I doubt that anyone will try and take his place. Good luck getting near the Capitol this time, but you can't protect every election site in the country. I think the idea of many years in prison will deter most of the types you saw on 1/6/21. The radical cultists aren't going to give up Trump.
Sorry to be the one to tell you but that weirdo Shaman mofo is out of prison and actually running for Congress in AZ -- https://www.vice.com/en/article/qanon-shaman-running-for-office/
Yup.
Yep!🤮🤮
The radical cultist will not give up Trump but they may have to go into hiding again (I doubt they will want to rise up for their leader). This time, however, let's not allow them to conspire in darkness of our own collective political unconscious. In other words, I hope we've learned something. Making darkness conscious is the work ahead.
The whole men-against-women vibe that the Trump campaign has taken on has started to remind me of the Barbie movie - Trump wants to have a mojo dojo casa white house. Of course, the Barbies overcame the Kens in the end, and everyone was better off for it.
They discount women coming out to rage-vote, and being pissed about Roe being overturned in the Dobbs decision, they said we will get over it.
I voted early on Halloween and my treat was casting my vote for Kamala.
We did as well and got confirmation the very next day that the county election office received our ballots. This election eve is particularly stressful as we anxiously wait for this MAGA shitshow nightmare to hopefully be done and over with. Demented Donnie believes he's several yards from the end zone but better yet, let's think it's more like The End for him.
It will be the “end zone” sans ball in his grasp Rick!!
He fumbled that ball away, among other things, many years ago.
This feels like the longest day of my life. Time will pass even slower tomorrow. It's an advantage being on the west coast because I have to distract myself only until about 5 pm or so when there ought to be something significant to report from the east.
Lucky for you Ann, enjoy a good book, go for a nice walk or ride, with a smile on your face.. or just dream of the end of a tyrannical connards days in the spotlight!
All of the above plus a jigsaw puzzle and maybe some baking. :-D
Have a good day yourself.
The trouble with baking is the scarfing down of the results asap.
If I could still bake, I would tomorrow and I would eat the whole thing.
Probably 10p for you!....thats 1a EST....it may even take till Wednesday PM to know whose winning decisively
Funny how not being a fascist is a deal killer for so many Americans. And I'm nauseously optimistic about tomorrow.
“Nauseously optimistic” 😂😂😂
Hmm!!
Thank you everyone! For being here when I needed a laugh, and to be talked off the ledge. I appreciate it. Now it's time to win and win BIG! Then we attended to the task of flushing the maga turds down the toilet of history.
