This just got me in my feels. A Black woman defending democracy. A Black woman trying to save democracy in America.
It’s crazy, but, Vice President Kamala Harris running like this is peak Black woman in America.
I should have known better.
I think we all anticipated Kamala getting 4 more years, and then running in 2028. We were ready for the free for all in 2028 in the Democratic Party.
That it’s happening this way, is so profoundly Black woman in America, I can’t even get past it.
I look at Black folks, and we are all just looking at one another, understanding the task…understanding the odds, and we’re all like..phuck it….let’s do this…
We are digging deep, to save democracy in America.
It’s who we are. The ones originally designated 3/5 of a human being…
Out here trying to save this country.
That’s who we are.

ImportantThere are only 3 groups raising money directly for the Harris campaign:
Harris for President
Harris Victory Fund
Harris Action FundIf you are giving to anyone else, please do your homework.
They could be siphoning money away from the campaign.
This picture just gives me chills. To think that Kamala Harris was in the crowd in Springfield, Illinois, on that cold day in 2007, when Barack Obama Announced his run for the Presidency.

Look. It’s obvious what happened here. Trump held a meeting on how to make it look like he has nothing to do with his own Project 2025 because it’s wildly unpopular, and they decided to ask the main guy to step down and take credit for it. Then they agreed they should threaten anyone who continues to associate him with his own Project 2025.
Trump IS Project 2025. Vance wrote the foreword. Publicity stunts like this don’t fool anyone.

But since Donald Trump refused to accept the outcome of the 2020 election, Republicans have yet to course correct. The Republican Party with Trump at its helm continues down the path of political extremism, away from focusing on our fundamental freedoms…

I remember when “mixed presidential ticket” meant that different regions of the country had to be balanced, typically North & South, but also sometimes Midwest & West.
But that was when presidential tickets were supposed to be all-white.

He’s got a winning combo of charisma (Rizz as the kids say) plain spokenness and a Santa Claus grandfather quality that I think is compelling. Especially to Southern & rust belt men who are sick of Trump but hesitant to vote for a woman. I don’t care who she picks but I like him

One of the few things I’ll say about this veepstakes is that it shouldn’t be a sitting senator or governor of a purple state.
We already saw what happened when Obama fatefully pulled red-state Democrats into his cabinet; both Kansas & Arizona took a decade to recover from that.

As expected Maduro has brazenly stolen the elections in Venezuela after being trounced by united opposition. As US media covers this story I hope they will link it to the border challenge. Millions of Venezuelans have fled because of the absence of democracy. A warning

Alma Powell has passed away. She served on President Obama’s Board of Advisors on HBCUs and chaired a nonprofit that helped “at-risk youths.” She met her husband, Colin Powell, on a blind date in 1961 and they were married for nearly 60 years. She was 86.

A week out, we now see the brilliance of Biden dropping out on a Sunday afternoon, after all the Sunday morning shows had broadcast their stories: his vice president has now had an entire week to reframe & reset the entire narrative of the campaign ahead of the convention…

It would likely have been the complete opposite had he waited even 18-24 hours.
The Sunday shows would have eaten Biden/Harris alive, and they would have had an entire week to both consume them and also try to drive Harris off the ticket as well.

This is a go-to of white nationalists or supremacists to call Black people “low IQ.”
They’ve been doing it for years.
It’s based on their belief essentially in eugenics.
Trump picked it up from them.
It wasn’t the other way around.

Foremost on her mind is activating the new volunteers and getting them out knocking on doors. Harris and emerging campaign brain trust share the view that shifting the fundamentals of the race will be difficult with a calcified electorate and fragmented media environment.

It’s turning out that this is what happened: exit polling showed him getting smacked in the polls, and seeing this, he decided to send his armed thugs out and steal ballot boxes and declare himself the winner. And it’s worse than that; the faked election results don’t even = 💯%.

Don’t forget: if Trump loses, Jack Smith’s cases will have time to play out without his getting ejected, and Trump will likely face prison time.
Remember this when you notice Trump becoming increasingly desperate and undone in the final 100 days.

The voucher misconception, repeated in today’s @nytimes assumes most private schools are elite—and accept low-income kids with a voucher.
They don’t.
Wealthier families get rebates for elite schools they’re already in, and lower income kids get shoved into sub-prime options https://t.co/Bxuu3lqyt9
