I wasn’t against Biden staying in the race, but I must admit that I feel better and happier (politically speaking) than I have in quite awhile. One could even say that I’m downright jubilant!

I think it’s about time to haul out and dust off the pussy hats again, ladies.
This time they’re dual purpose — f*ck Trump, we’re for Kamala!!

Sure about that, Donald? Bullet wound, FBI closing in, aides turning on you.

I’m a knitter, and I think I want to design something new for Harris’s campaign. Let her have her own hat.

I care…especially since TSF tried to use the lack of the endorsement as a reason why he won’t debate Harris.

That would be such obvious pandering that I wonder if it would actually help at all…

Actually, I think this was all planned — every day a new endorsement, grabbing the headlines from FatAss, day after day.
Today, iirc, this also pushes Netanyahu down under the fold.

I posted this elsewhere yesterday about why SC rulings should be applied to past events. Seems relevant to the immunity ruling.
…
I’m going to throw out a hypothetical that we should prepare for – SCOTUS possibly trying to upend the election at the 11th hour. I think it may be too much for even this court, but this also gets into a very general question about how we treat SC rulings.
In a nutshell, regarding the general question first, where is it written that SC rulings take effect immediately with zero regard for what kind of effect an immediate “enforcement” would be vs grandfathering in affected issues? If they can nullify almost anything at the drop of a hat, how can America possibly move forward without constantly second guessing literally almost anything we do? As an example, the recent Chevron ruling jeopardizes thousands of policies that have been implemented in good faith based on the previous Chevron ruling. Why should all of that be thrown out, rather than saying “OK, moving forward, congress has to be more precise (Ha!), but everything that was in place before this ruling can remain.”
More specifically, what if SC takes the “natural born citizen” lawsuits seriously? As I say, maybe too outrageous for even this court. However, the way we’ve been operating as a country, if they decide Kamala isn’t really a natural born citizen, that would be game over for us if the ruling doesn’t include an exception to grandfather her in.
Wong Kim Ark was decided in 1898 and it firmly establishes our current definition of NBC. Clearly, SC has no qualms about overturning precedent at the drop of a hat, but it’s preposterous to live under the threat that they can upend anything they want and that we just have to eat it starting that very minute.
Assuming we get through this election without that kind of ratfucking and win the trifecta, I think SC reforms in congress should have a grandfathering clause.
If the SC does the (not completely) unthinkable, I hope all the blue and swing states are prepared to tell them to fuck all the way off.

They should have realized that could happen when they decided to catapult the narrative into la-la land all those years ago. They’ve hitched their horse to a falling star.

Had to share this chart (from the NYT’s morning email) illustrating the problem we face: we care about democracy. Somehow the unicorn voters barely register that. Because hey, what’s a little dictatorship compared to cheaper gas?

See below. It looks like I can’t delete the post.
Yup, don’t waste the biggest names by having them all lumped together at one time under one headline.
In a “normal” race this would have been spread out over weeks and months. Also deliberately.

I love Joe and was behind him all the way. The weeks leading up to his pulling out had me so upset and sad and uncertain that I almost completely stopped reading the news.
But, I must say, for all I believed in Joe, I never once felt the energy and joy and confidence that I feel now!
So, thank you, Joe, for all this.
And we will pay you back for your incredible sacrifice by making sure Kamala’s big win is your ultimate legacy!
