I suppose I can do some of these Open Thread things while Carl Ballard is on hiatus. Here is stuff from the news for your consideration.

Трамп is one week deep into a national poll losing streak. One poll showed a seven point swing in favor of Harris. The Orange Authoritarian appears to be taking it NOT well—he is glitchy, if not broken, and spewing more nonsense than usual. Meanwhile, the Hospitality Worker’s Union has rejected the only candidate suffering the trifecta of malignant narcissism, sociopathy, and cerebral syphilis by giving Kamala Harris their endorsement. This, despite a bullshit campaign promise from Spanky, himself, of tax-free tips should he be elected again. Also, The Felon Von Shitzenpantz might be suffering from a bad case of emoluments. Meanwhile, Трамп puts his common sense, great temperament, and loyalty on display by first complaining about the international prisoner swap, and then pivoting to publicly praising Putin over the deal.

Finally, a decade-old mystery has been solved. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confesses he left that dead bear cub in Central Park. Some say its the brain worm talking….

Snowball in July!

by — ,

It’s been over a week since President Joe Biden withdrew from reelection and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. And what a week it has been! The Harris campaign has snowballed into a formidable challenge to the felonious former guy.

I couldn’t be more pleased. You see, in 2020, during the Democratic primary season, I engaged in debates with my friends at Drinking Liberally about who the Democrats should nominate. My first choice was Joe Biden. I felt he had the best chance of defeating an incumbent old guy. Joe Biden was a highly experienced, stable, thoughtful, elder statesman, who was best equipped to defeat an incompetent, sociopathic, narcissistic, sexist, racist, agent of chaos.

My second choice was Kamala Harris. I thought she had both excellent policy positions and great charisma. I was pretty pleased when the ticket was Biden—Harris.

Now, having Harris at the top of the ticket is like a breath of fresh air. It has an energy not unlike Obama’s 2008 campaign. The response has been overwhelming:

A week since announcing her bid for president, Vice President Kamala Harris has raised more than $200 million dollars, according to her campaign.

…

The Harris campaign said 66% of the donations came from first-time donors. Along with fresh dollars, the campaign has signed up over 170,000 new volunteers since president Biden announced he would step down and endorsed her to be the Democratic nominee last Sunday.

I’ve got a good feeling about this…

The Washington Democratic delegation is totally on board and ready to roll in support of Harris at the Democratic National Convention.

Every four years we hear it: “this is the most important election of our lives.” But sometimes that trite expression is reality! A second Трамп term will be about 2025 times worse than the first Трамп term….

Wanna keep the Harris momentum going? Activate yourself and do something! Donate to the Harris campaign. It’s easy. Even if you can only donate a few buck, your contribution adds to the snowballing movement in the best way—as another small donor. Volunteer for the Harris campaign. Make a plan to vote, and help other’s prepare to vote. Get involved.

Don’t just live history…help make it!
