What I find interesting, in the last 30 pages of the 277 page indictment, it goes into details about Russia’s pro-Zionist, Pro-Israeli govt propaganda campaign…
Putin's Russia will back whatever effort that serves to further destabilize a democratic world order. I wouldn't be surprised if Netanyahu has established some backdoor diplomatic channels with the Putin regime because he's an opportunistic rat bastard.
Also goes to show why we should collectively move away from what used to be Twitter but is now called X (the everything app). Everyone in this thread should apply a high degree of scrutiny to anything quoted from that site (and every other site as well).
"So, why did we do Stop the Steal? Why did did anyone go to Jan. 6? Why did any one go to jail? ... It would have been good to know that before 1,600 people got charged," Fuentes said on his podcast, referring to the criminal charges for those who invaded and ransacked the Capitol. "It would’ve been good to know that before (I) had all my money frozen, put on a no-fly list, banned from everything, lost all my bank and payment processing.”

The full video is even wilder. The quoted stuff above barely scratches what he covered.. Here’s the expanded 3.5 minute version. Never would I have thought that I’d be recommending people watch a neo-nazi’s meltdown.
The August fundraising numbers are a bright spot if the polling numbers are getting you down like me. 361 million for Harris vs 140 for Trump. Harris's campaign had 1.3 million first time donors during that time.
I look at it this way, and I'm sure if you go backwards in this thread you'll agree.
When Biden was the nominee, we almost universally believed Trump would easily win. This intensified right after the debate and even more after the assassination attempt.
At this point with Harris, it's more or less a coin flip who wins the election. There are many states within the margin of error, if you fully trust the polls in the first place.
Harris could win big like Biden did, or something could happen in the next months to have a repeat of 2016. We don't know yet. But even that in itself is a bit of a coin flip.
In my opinion, Harris has to win either Pennsylvania or Georgia. She wins one of those, she wins. She loses both, Trump probably wins. So I pay attention to the other polls, but my main focus is on PA and GA.
I remember reading some article, and apparently the Trump campaign is only doing significant spending in GA, PA, and I think NC. Harris and Dems are blowing them out in the other battlegrounds.

As noted earlier in the week, they are spending all their money on one path - hold North Carolina (and all states from 2020) and flip Pennsylvania and Georgia. It's that simple. For anyone who missed Trump's remarks on childcare yesterday, they had a cut and paste of them available on Maddow Blog. Typical rambling incoherency while literally spouting bullshit yet saying nothing at all.
“Well, I would do that, and we’re sitting down — you know, I was, somebody, we had Sen. Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue,” Trump’s 368-word answer began. “It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that — because, look, child care is child care. It’s, couldn’t, you know, there’s something, you have to have it — in this country, you have to have it.
“But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to — but they’ll get used to it very quickly — and it’s not gonna stop them from doing business with us. But they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country.
“Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care. We’re gonna have — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country, because I have to stay with child care.
“I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth, but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just, that I just told you about. We’re gonna be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as child care is talked about as being expensive, it’s, relatively speaking, not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’ll be taking in. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world.
“Let’s help other people, but we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first. It’s about Make America Great Again. We have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation, so we’ll take care of it. Thank you. Very good question. Thank you.”
I agree and that’s why I’m concerned. The polling coming out of either has been best case scenario Harris up 1 and in a lot of cases Trump up. If the polling error is anything like 2020 or even worse 2016 Trump would win both and it wouldn’t be super close. Who knows if it will happen that way but I can’t help but worry about it.
If this election has proven one thing it’s that debates do in fact matter, so hopefully next week will pull things in Harris’s favor but who knows. There are clearly a lot of people that like Trump's nonsense

Also doesn't help that Trump likely has dementia and the media is ignoring it to keep the horse race up.
I think that hints at the real trick to winning the debate and hopefully it’s obvious enough that they can pull it off. Biden didn’t lose the debate based on any policy matter he lost it because he seemed too old. Kamala needs to do everything in her power to make Trump seem old and doddering. Try to confuse him and trip him up and make it clear when she does. The actual substance of the debate is almost irrelevant.
Like Fox Mulder, I want to believe, but there has been a lot of polling out of PA lately that has not been great. And if Harris doesn't win PA, as others have said, it's down to GA and NC, neither of which is inspiring huge amounts of confidence - the margins are super-thin.
It is just so fucking frustrating. I really worry we're heading toward another scenario in which the D candidate wins the popular vote by literally millions, but we get fucked in the ass by the stupid fucking Electoral College.

Oh, my god, the "sanewashing" of his appearance at the Economic Club of New York is off the charts.
There is no chance in hell Harris wins Florida or Texas.
They may help in some down ballot races and hopefully right here in the duh enshrine abortion rights and legal herb into our constitution.
The abortion amendment definitely helps but not enough to makeup 3-4 points. I think the weed resolutions don’t make much of a difference. When it comes to users that’s a pretty bipartisan issue these days.
I do think the abortion votes in Arizona and Nevada may help tip those much closer states (as well as the Senate race featuring Kari Lake in Arizona)

Having a real Trump hysteria moment. I just will never understand. He's been worse than ever lately. Half the things he said yesterday at the Economic Club of New York, and today after his sentencing got delayed, were just completely incoherent. He's barely campaigning. JD Vance said yesterday that school shootings are "a fact of life."
And yet, Trump is stronger in the polls now than he was two weeks ago. It is breaking my brain. *More* people are planning to vote for him than used to be planning to vote for him. What the fuck is going on. Why are people so evil and stupid?
It might not affect most of today's Republicans but this feels more direct than we've gotten from most of the old guard up to this point. In the past it's been more that they wouldn't vote for Trump but never that they would vote for the Democrat. Wonder if there is any chance Bush would do similar. I have to imagine there are a few people out there that this might be at least a little persuasive.

It’s not really about ***Kamala winning Texas or Florida.
Texas trending is though. • Under W.Bush, Texas was basically R+20 • Under Obama, around R+15 • In 2016 with Hillary, around R+9. • In 2020 with Biden, around R+5. • In 2024 with Kamala, I don’t think R+2 is unreasonable.
Now, Beto lost to Ted Cruz in 2018 by 1%. Beto was a flawed candidate and he ran basically 6 points ahead of Biden two years prior. So if the state shifts by D+3, that would give Trump a close Texas win but Colin Allred would probably upset Cruz.
It’s no coincidence Texas republicans have turned their voter disenfranchisement tactics up to max over the last couple months.
Edit: and to your other post, along with Cheney voting Kamala, Liz Cheney also threw support behind Allred as well.

The truly wild thing is how realistic of a possibility it is that the electoral college ends in a tie. If Trump wins PA, NC, and GA, and Harris wins AZ, NV, WI, MI, and the independent districts (she's leading in all), you end up 269-269.
Then it goes to the House of Representatives, but more specifically, the incoming House of Representatives. Currently that favors the GOP 26-22 with two tied states; most likely it will again but given how downballot candidates seem to be outperforming Biden/Harris, you never know (or rather: I'm too lazy to look up all those polls and figure out the likelihood).
