Let's not forget the DoJ. Merrick Garland is less than useless, and if the MAGAts had an ounce of brains they'd be extolling him for his utter failure to do his duty.
IMO should we lose democracy next Tuesday the single person most responsible for it will be identified by history as Garland.
How about Rupert Murdoch? Or Aileen Cannon? Or Sean Hannity? Or, looking backward, James Comey? Or, leaping forward, Christopher Wray? Or, more to the point, Mitch McConnell? Or, Or, Or...
I am also concerned about what Trump plans to do after the 2024 election, if he has lost. We have been forewarned but I don't sense the level of preparation that may be required to save our Democracy. Flocks of unprincipled lawyers are readying to overwhelm the courts with phoney complaints about the 2024 election. Their purpose will be to tie knots in the system and break it. And then somehow Trump can take over to "fix" it. That has been the plan for some months. All Trump's actions are designed to advance it.
Mitch McConnell bears a huge slice of responsibility. Even at this late moment, when we know he knows just how toxic and unfit Trump is, he is putting party over country and Trump Uber alles. History in a nutshell: "We know he should be impeached (for 1/6), but the timing is wrong; let the legal system handle him." "No, we can't keep this insurrectionist off the ballot, the voters must decide." "No, we can't sentence Trump now; it's too close to the election. The voters must have their say." Time to vote: "Of course I support 'president' Trump and I will vote for him...it's the only way we can cling to power."
Just as comey was responsible for Hillary Clinton, more importantly, sadly America loosing, most of all the close to million deaths due to pandemic, and increased national debt due to looting of treasury by drumfp and his enablers, & the separations of families and jailing of migrants for "for profit prison-oligarchs' corporations . And comey's part is the largest as Americans have been experiencing this horror show for almost a decade, let's hope it ends after January 6th.
Their obligation is not to their readers or subscribers, their obligation is to their shareholders; to assuage their shareholders they explained their content is designed to and for their subscribers and readers which are aggregated for their advertisers, the mothers blood that feeds the vampire. It’s hard to imagine a c-suite conversation regarding their obligations to their readers, but easy to imagine the prioritization of their advertisers. The created content is to a targeted demographic that fills a profile for their advertisers.
Thank you for shining a light on this when legacy media outlets are too wishy washy to do so. It’s irresponsible journalism.
The misogyny & vile language is beyond offensive. Women and people who love and respect the women in their lives should not accept this from a presidential candidate. No excuses. We must vote our values.
These comments by Trump, Musk, etc., show exactly what they think of women. They only see us in a sexual context and are offended when ANY woman has a position of power or challenges their positions. Even us 'oldies' have been labeled by JD Vance as only serving the purpose of childcare once we're past childbearing age, much less those of us who do not have children. It's pitiful that they are so insecure they cannot accept and appreciate excellence for itself.
Oldest trick in the book! Beat up the female, Caveman teen stuff. Elon Musk is a deeply conflicted male who looks like a botched breach birth to me. Really unattractive, with a repulsive personality. If the public could quit worshipping wealth, we might be able to make a dent in his insatiable ego.
This is all they have. Like desperate and pitiful little boys, and bullies, it reveals a sorry lack of ability and creativity to have to resort to such tactics. And by contrast it serves well to elevate Harris. Not to minimize, of course their desperation also makes them dangerous.
Robert Reich this morning says: “In early October, Musk registered with the Texas secretary of state’s office a new corporation called United States of America, Inc.” Reich believes Musk is angling to become the CEO of the US in an authoritarian makeover of the government.
I have been saying that for some time. Musk cannot become President of South Africa, so he chose America to rule. With his media and the Republicans he has a very good chance of becoming the African/American dictator. Once the constitution is abolished under Trump, Musk is in command.
NO ONE should be surprised at the lows that Fascist Elmo, and his Orange Antichrist Cult Leader, will sink to. They have destroyed the decency and trust in our election process. They have intimidated the media & Billionaire Oligarchs like Bezos & the fascist who owns the LA Times into staying silent. They have colluded with Russia (putin), came into this country and worked illegally (musK), stolen Classified documents (Traitor tRUMP), and Deranged Donnie has been convicted 34 times, yet he is allowed to continue to run for president. We all have to Boycott Elon's companies (Tesla, Spacex, X, Starlink, etc), Amazon, Washington post, LA Times, and #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica
The muskrat can be counted on to be more evil than chump. How is that possible you say? They both try harder to grab that money/power ring so they can grind us all into the dirt while we slave in their behalf. It’s the plan man, no more playing nice…
So sad, so dopey — so very Elon, world’s richest manchild. They think this sort of thing debases Harris, when they’re only debasing themselves.
Traditional right-wing PACs might well think of such an idea in a brainstorming session, laugh about it, and then move on — Elon lacks any ability to understand humans, so of course it doesn’t occur to him that it only makes him and Trump look foolish. But you have to admit that he has nailed the MAGA base’s mentality here.
I saw the ad on Twitter last night or maybe it was early this morning. It is being retweeted. No one had posted "this comment has been removed." It was still on there.
There was a golden moment Tweet of CBS's Norah O'Donnell attacking Harris in an interview saying president Trump says it isn't true that he will have Nationwide Abortion ban. Kamala sets her back on her heels with her reply he says everything but she watches what he does.
And, I will never call it X nor a repost. Elon Mush is a billionaire called the world's richest man with continued links to Putin reported by the WSJ this week. He went to see Putin 2 weeks prior to his purchase of Twitter. If anyone is the C Word. It's him and it is Communist thought backed by Putin the old KGB boy, himself. Once again Russian interference in a US election sanctioned by the world's richest man. Merrick Garland, the Federalist society moderator is a joke. Biden made a mistake by not replacing him after year one and must bear some
of the blame for this scenario.
Bezos and his 9 paragraph response to the WaPo fiasco is just as bad, imho. Many of us are making prep in case MAGA chaos reigns after Nov 5 regardless of who wins.
It's a sober thought of what has happened to America.
Extra canned goods, boxed snacks, peanut butter, water drawn, bottled water, cash on hand, firewood, new filled tank of grill gas, matches, flashlight batteries,fill your car gas tanks, prescription meds, a first aid kit, otc pain killers, hand sanitizer. Things if the electric grid is attacked. If your state has an emergency dept. They generally have a list of supplies like a hurricane kit.
A couple years ago CBS 60 Mins ran a story on the vulnerability of the grid. In NC a bit after that domestic terrorist took down part of power grid.
Google them.
When Trump talks about the enemy within... He is projecting. I am sure far right groups are standing back waiting. Jan. 6 has never ended in my opinion.
I added pet food for those who have pets. There's a list below that not unlike this one. https://www.vaemergency.gov/prepare/emergency-kit You are coming across like you have a superiority complex. Do you. I'll do me.
Starting? He is going after the weak-minded Trump supporters - STILL after 4 years. What else has he done? Let's hope Harris gets rid of Garland and does NOT put him on the Supreme Court!
Considering the USAG doesn't have to have a law license or even to have attended law school, Malcolm Nance would make a fine AG IMO. He's like the anti-Garland.
The Trump bible includes the Constitution and the Bill of Rights (Amendments 1 to 10), but it leaves out Amendments 11 to 27 Why? Because he would rather get rid of at least the 13th (slavery) 15th (voter rights "race, color, or previous condition of servitude.") 19th (women's right to vote), and 25th (limits a president to two terms). This ad is just a statement of their vision of how to Make America Great Again MAGA.
The MSM - ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, NY Times, WAPO - has failed us miserably again.
Let's not forget the DoJ. Merrick Garland is less than useless, and if the MAGAts had an ounce of brains they'd be extolling him for his utter failure to do his duty.
IMO should we lose democracy next Tuesday the single person most responsible for it will be identified by history as Garland.

Immaturity seems to be the cornerstone of this big steaming pile of bovine biosolids placed on the country's doorstep and set on fire. *sigh
Totally agree… the rampant immaturity on display in this country is shocking.
Once again, I have no words. Thank you Judd for writing about this. Corporate media has shamelessly left us hanging.
Oldest trick in the book! Beat up the female, Caveman teen stuff. Elon Musk is a deeply conflicted male who looks like a botched breach birth to me. Really unattractive, with a repulsive personality. If the public could quit worshipping wealth, we might be able to make a dent in his insatiable ego.
Are you f-ing kidding me? I hadn’t seen that ad so thx for exposing (I think!) I would have to agree with your headline - it’s beyond disgusting.
This is all they have. Like desperate and pitiful little boys, and bullies, it reveals a sorry lack of ability and creativity to have to resort to such tactics. And by contrast it serves well to elevate Harris. Not to minimize, of course their desperation also makes them dangerous.

Funny thing, the word that came immediately to mind when I saw "C Word" was not "communist."
It’s not communist. It’s the other one.
Isn't that what I said -- or at least strongly implied?
So sad, so dopey — so very Elon, world’s richest manchild. They think this sort of thing debases Harris, when they’re only debasing themselves.
Traditional right-wing PACs might well think of such an idea in a brainstorming session, laugh about it, and then move on — Elon lacks any ability to understand humans, so of course it doesn’t occur to him that it only makes him and Trump look foolish.

The MAGA base’s base mentality
Yes yes... but who is bringing fascist and racist musk in front of a court? Tell me please. Thank you
Pennsylvania? For the lottery--not election interference?
Watch…slap on the wrist, and he knows it.
It wasn’t enough that we had Trump and Vance to be outraged about! Now we have Musk too. Bezzos the enabler! Less than stellar media !

Prepping how?

PS petfood
Yeah, well, good luck with that, Hazel…enjoy eating pet food, because the Haitians just ate your cat.
And by the way, you forgot guns…lots of guns, but even then you’re screwed because they already have them all.
I added pet food for those who have pets. There's a list below that not unlike this one. https://www.vaemergency.gov/prepare/emergency-kit You are coming across like you have a superiority complex. Do you. I'll do me.
If Musk is violating Federal law, why aren’t the Feds doing something about it?! I’m starting to think the complaints about Garland have real merit.
Starting? He is going after the weak-minded Trump supporters - STILL after 4 years. What else has he done? Let's hope Harris gets rid of Garland and does NOT put him on the Supreme Court!
Considering the USAG doesn't have to have a law license or even to have attended law school, Malcolm Nance would make a fine AG IMO. He's like the anti-Garland.
Prefer Pete Buttigeg
Buttigieg
