Comment on Trump Incoherence: Calls Kamala, 'Tipala'

“I do not know where to start with this man. He called the civil rights movement crap. Called LGBTQ people filth. Self-identified as a Nazi. Suggested bringing back slavery. Now, I shouldn’t have to really get into all this. I think it’s fair to say you do not need a governor who makes Donald Trump look almost normal.” — Barack Obama, talking about North Carolina gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson (R).

For years, America’s most iconic gun-makers turned over sensitive personal information on hundreds of thousands of customers to political operatives. Those operatives, in turn, secretly employed the details to rally firearm owners to elect pro-gun politicians running for Congress and the White House, a ProPublica investigation has found. The clandestine sharing of gun buyers’ identities — without their knowledge and consent — marked a significant departure for an industry that has long prided itself on thwarting efforts to track who owns firearms in America. At least 10 gun industry businesses, including Glock, Smith & Wesson, Remington, Marlin and Mossberg, handed over names, addresses and other private data to the gun industry’s chief lobbying group, the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

Jesse Watters Primetime bookers must be desperate to fill the minutes between type-2 diabetes and CPAP alternative commercials, because they had on their own employee, usually relegated to weekends, Mark Levin. And he spouted the usual right-wing freakout buzzwords: [transcript via Media Matters] MARK LEVIN (GUEST): She's running for president of the wrong country.

On Friday, a Virginia judge ruled that Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s recent purge of close to two thousand voters from state rolls—within 90 days of November’s election—was illegal. Now, with that election less than two weeks away, the state must reinstate all 1,600 revoked registrations. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Patricia Giles found that Youngkin’s purge violated the National Voter Registration Act, a federal law that prevents states from removing ineligible voters from the rolls within 90 days of the election. Last August, Youngkin issued an executive order that included several “ballot security” measures, including the authority to revoke thousands of Virginians’ voter registrations on the suspicion that they were not US citizens—a notion rooted in a GOP conspiracy theory popularized by Donald Trump and his allies. Since then, his administration has been purging voters in waves, claiming to have revoked the registration of more than 6,000 non-citizens (and tens of thousands of people who had simply died).

Michelle Obama is set to make her first campaign appearance alongside Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday at a rally in Michigan, a move that Democrats are hoping will help boost voter turnout in the final stretch before the election. The former First Lady has maintained remarkable popularity since leaving the White House.

In Erivo, we see the same crazed, leftist female anger that drove white men away from Hillary.
