Guy Cohen of Occupy Democrats gives us some clips of Mango Mussolini’s train wreck with the National Association of Black Journalists; that includes the segments about “black jobs” and Kamala Harris recently “becoming black,” or some such garbage...curious that the plug was pulled on everything the minute Project 2025 came up; I’m sure #45 didn’t want to admit that his sweaty, bulbous orange hands are all over it (more here)...
Update 1: Nicely done by one of our Gold medalist Olympians (here).
...and Jesse Dollemore tells us about the Repug mayor of Mesa, AZ, John Giles, deciding to support Kamala Harris...”evaporatable”?? That’s OK...and Jesse is dead-on right about the dirty tricks the Trumpers are preparing for the general election...
...and the crew from The Majority Report (Emma V., Matt Lech, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton) discuss Kamala Harris’s potential VP pick (personally, I'm fine with Mark Kelly or Tim Walz - I like Andy Beshear too, but does anybody seriously think he'll bring the South with him?)...I absolutely agree with their analysis of Josh Shapiro; I honestly don’t know what the pundits think he’ll do for the “D” team, notwithstanding Shapiro’s baggage...and yeah, I believe that they’re correct that the whole “birther 2.0” garbage against Harris won’t fly this time around – hope we’re right (I also didn’t think the “caste” joke was all that funny, partly because I can indeed see Our Treasonous Orange Pustule using something like that, but whatever...mildly NSFW/H)...
...and John Iadarola and Sharon Reed of The Damage Report tell us that J.D. Vance’s net favorability continues to plummet, from minus 6 to minus 15 in just a matter of days (kind of makes me wonder how Tim Ryan actually lost to him in the Ohio U.S. Senate race, but Vance apparently knew how to “speak wingnut” better than Ryan...have fun reaping the whirlwind, people)...
...and welcome to the party, Miss Beau – here, she discusses the recent release of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and U.S. Marine Paul Whelan from the clutches of Vlad The Butcher (if somehow Combover Caligula had managed to pull this off, he’d be crowing about it forever, but since this accomplishment came from President Biden, don’t expect to hear much from our beyond useless corporate media)...
Update 8/3/24: The leader of "Cult 45" might as well have a hammer and sickle tattooed on his forehead (here).
Update 2: Treasonous insurrectionist from PA seeking a Trump pardon sez what?
...and this video from Sam Black of More Perfect Union tells us The Real Reason (Why) You Can’t Afford a House (yep, you can draw a line pretty much back to private equity firms as the culprit, and the one featured here is based in Texas...collectively, they swooped in to buy up homes in the wake of the 2008 foreclosure crisis...”the shift from owning to renting has resulted in a homeowner loss of about a billion dollars in lost equity over the last ten years, and that’s just in Atlanta”...ugh – I would suggest that you remember that the next time some boomer complains about kids these days with their baggy pants, hippity hop and MP4s, or whatever, not starting their lives and careers...and oh yeah, having to pay off usurious student loans is a factor too)...
...and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” (more or less) from 7/29/15...with all of the record-breaking heat going on related to climate change, I thought it was appropriate to highlight this clip once more of the Hillary Clinton for President campaign calling out presidential candidates from that time representing the “party of Lincoln” who denied climate science, and still do so...even though this video makes an important point, I thought it was a bit “too clever by half,” which, to me, was emblematic of the Clinton campaign overall...there were too many other factors that went into her loss in 2016, and on paper she had the best resume of any candidate, but she just left a lot to be desired as a campaigner, and unfortunately, that has more to do with how people vote than anything else...
...and happy belated 75th birthday to drummer Simon Kirke of Free and Bad Company.
