I did not watch any of the RNC. Full of negativity and instilling fear of doomsday if Donald is not elected.


Gosh, I thought Hillary Clinton and other Democrats were the ones saying that the election of Donald Trump would mean doomsday and the end of democracy.


But it does. Electing him again is doomsday.

In a concurring opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, Justice Clarence Thomas said that the Supreme Court should reconsider opinions protecting same-sex relationships, marriage equality and access to contraceptives.

Driving the news: Roe protected abortion rights in the U.S. under the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, and Justice Samuel Alito asserted that abortion is not included under that amendment. As a result, Thomas said that the court should reconsider other due process precedents such as Griswold, Lawrence and Obergefell.

Clarence Thomas. He "explicitly called on the court to overrule the watershed civil rights rulings in Griswold v. Connecticut, Lawrence v. Texas and Obergefell v. Hodges"

Republicans lost so hard on gay marriage that they've gone quiet about it. That doesn't mean they'll stay quiet if they start winning more power again.

Thomas and Alito. So, it is important not to allow the next President to appoint anti-LGBTQ conservative justices who could take away LGBTQ rights the same way the Roberts court took away women's rights.


It's traditional to call it the Roberts court, but it's really the McConnell Coup Court, packed by the Republican Senate's unconstitutional refusal to do its job.

Harris and Walz have my vote and the vote of my family and friends.

My gen Z teen son's tier list for most memorable DNC speeches:
S (superb) tier - Michelle Obama
A tier (really good) - Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris
B tier (nice) - Barack Obama, Rev Warnock, Tim Walz, State by State roll call (esp Georgia/Lil John), Kamala's grand-nieces
C tier (ok) - Joe Biden, Oprah, Wes Moore, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Kamala's husband
D tier - Pelosi





This is fantastic and I love that your son was watching. I like his list and also thought Michelle slayed. I'd add Whitmer and AOC to the B tier.

Speaker after speaker and they didn't let MUSLIM WOMEN FOR KAMALA speak?
Now the group is disbanding.

Of all the crazy s**t that happened between 2016 and 2021, this is the one that will probably never cease to blow my mind. The dude literally tried to get his own VP killed while he just sat there watching TV in the white house dining room.

Tonight I brought this up with a relative who is for Trump and they said, that was three years ago!
It is truly unbelievable people are willing to gloss over this.

How a Rumor about Beyoncé at the DNC fooled the world

So, about that special musical guest ... Where was Beyoncé for the DNC's final night?

https://www.npr.org/2024/08/22/g-s1-18988/beyonce-taylor-swift-dnc-performances


Heading into the final night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention, rumors swirled about high-profile, unannounced musical guests — which, given that Wednesday’s performers included Stevie Wonder and John Legend, helped create sky-high audience expectations.

The guests who had been announced — namely, The Chicks and Pink — brought plenty of star power of their own. But they weren’t joined by Beyoncé or Taylor Swift, as a broad swath of breathless social-media speculation predicted but could never quite confirm.

Instead, the special, previously unannounced guest was … nobody. The night’s headliner, Vice President Harris, had the spotlight to herself — which may have been the point all along.


TMZ admits it falsely reported Beyoncé’s appearance at DNC: ‘We got this one wrong’


TMZ has acknowledged falsely reporting that Beyoncé would be taking the stage at Thursday’s Democratic National Convention.

On Thursday, the celebrity gossip outlet claimed that the “Alien Superstar” hitmaker was set to perform before Vice President Kamala Harris accepted the Democratic presidential nomination inside Chicago’s United Center.

I wonder why the DNC didn’t let people know via sm that Beyoncé was not the special guest? The special guest was Kamala. Which is weird, because everyone knew she was going to show up.

Because CNN has gone hard right and they’re working for the GOP. They use a lot of “undecideds” and “independents” who are big ol’ Republicans.


Yet another reason not to watch cable.

You are such a MAGA fake!

You do not care about either group (and you certainly are not a member of either). You can’t even get the acronym right. Its LGTBQIA+

And he's privately hung out with them and told them how great their ideas are many times..... It's getting really old when you people keep saying he's joking about things he says or he has no idea about something when he literally has spoken about it in the past or has said it was a good idea
Like just own the crap that he supports please
