Rampin’ up for the ol’ voter suppression tactics in 2024’s Texas elections:
Weird.
I have reached an agreement with the Radical Left Democrats for a Debate with Comrade Kamala Harris. It will be Broadcast Live on ABC FAKE NEWS, by far the nastiest and most unfair newscaster in the business, on Tuesday, September 10th, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Rules will be the same as the last CNN Debate, which seemed to work out well for everyone except, perhaps, Crooked Joe Biden. The Debate will be “stand up,” and Candidates cannot bring notes, or “cheat sheets.” We have also been given assurance by ABC that this will be a “fair and equitable” Debate, and that neither side will be given the questions in advance (No Donna Brazile!). Harris would not agree to the FoxNews Debate on September 4th, but that date will be held open in case she changes her mind or, Flip Flops, as she has done on every single one of her long held and cherished policy beliefs. A possible third Debate, which would go to NBC FAKE NEWS, has not been agreed to by the Radical Left. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Donnie can’t read, so this rule won’t disadvantage him.
I known we don’t like twitter here but this video that the Harris campaign posted is priceless.
“thanks, dad!”
In a statement to NPR, Arlington National Cemetery said it “can confirm there was an incident, and a report was filed.”
“Federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign,” according to the statement. “Arlington National Cemetery reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants.”
The party of law & order.
support our troops… by trampling their graves
My grandfather was a WWI veteran and my father a WWII veteran. Do not get me started.
Well that was fucking terrifying. And way too plausible.
“The fact is that a private photographer was permitted on the premises and for whatever reason an unnamed individual, clearly suffering from a mental health episode, decided to physically block members of President Trump’s team during a very solemn ceremony,” Cheung said in the statement.
The fact is that Steven Cheung is clearly a straight-up sociopath.
And that right there is a great example of why (according to the TOS) we can’t diagnose anyone on this BBS.
Oh they know their reality tv bullshit would backfire
House Democrats are effectively inviting a hardline Republican to go rogue and force a vote to impeach President Biden in the final weeks of the 2024 election.
Why it matters: Top House Democrats are in rare agreement with their Republican counterparts that an impeachment vote would damage GOP attempts to hang onto control of the House.
- “The whole investigation has been a debacle for them, they have egg all over their face,” said Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), who is House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ (D-N.Y.) point-man on impeachment as ranking member of the Oversight Committee.
- The vote, he argued, would “either prove that all of them are invested in this nonsense, or that they can’t even … get all the Republicans in the House to vote for it.”
Driving the news: Top House Republicans and swing-district GOP lawmakers are furious about the prospect of a Trump ally like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) or Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) forcing a vote to impeach Biden, Axios’ Juliegrace Brufke reported.
- An Oversight Committee report last week accused Biden of “impeachable conduct” related to his family’s business dealings but fell short of providing evidence of specific criminal wrongdoing.
- Multiple lawmakers on the party’s right flank quickly reacted by calling for an impeachment vote when the House returns in September.
- Under House rules, any single member can bypass leadership and force votes on impeachment and other similar measures.
What they’re saying: “Call the vote. They should do that. That vote is a paved road to the minority,” Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) told Axios, noting many Republicans “have never wanted to do the vote.”
- If Republicans succeed in impeaching Biden in the House, Moskowitz said, Senate Democrats should hold a trial to “call their bluff. … We should make them own it, every day on TV.”
- Raskin told Axios: “If they actually take it to a vote, then individual [Republican] members are going to be politically punished.”

Somehow having David Harbour playing the cop adds an extra layer of terror for me.
The coverage Trump has enjoyed has long worked to pressure straight journalists into covering things with a right wing spin. And these days, it’s not clear whether the straight journalists need any help.
