Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls Trump The ‘founding Father Of The America First Movement’ At Rnc

SNL's Kenan Thompson was the latest speaker to bring out a giant Project 2025 book as a prop to warn the voters about their dangerous plans for a second Trump term during this year's DNC. Thompson started things off mocking the large book he had dragged onto the stage with him, asking “You ever see a document that could kill a small animal and end Democracy at the same time?” After some sound issues with the first guest, went onto talk to a gay woman who has been married for 8 years, and Project 2025's plans for her, a woman who is on insulin and their plans to raise the price of her prescriptions, an OBGYN and their plans to criminalize abortion and toss health care providers in jail, and finally a woman who works for the Department of Education, and their plans to fire everyone who is not a MAGA loyalist, and to completely eliminate the Department of Education. Thompson wrapped things up telling the audience that they could read more at Harris's campaign site here, and finished with this: THOMPSON: And most importantly, you can stop from ever happening by electing Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States. read more

The Big Dawg still has it. The speechifying gift, I mean. He never sounds like he's making a speech, he sounds like he's having a conversation. Via NPR: "Let's cut to the chase. I am too old to gild the lily," said Clinton, who recently turned 78. "But I'm still younger than Donald Trump," he added, to raucous applause. “In 2024, we have a clear choice: ‘We The People’ versus ‘Me, Myself, and I,'" Clinton continued.

Kroger sued the FTC and Lina Khan today to have the agency declared unconstitutional. https://t.co/NbodOHZqM8 pic.twitter.com/MWl6fEZtlA — Ben Remaly (@BenRemaly) August 19, 2024 Yep, Kroger's position is that the FTC is unconstitutional and that Lina Khan's ongoing proceedings against a Kroger merger is illegal.

After accepting the Democratic nomination as Vice President on Day 3 , Gov. Walz took the gloves off and in a few minutes showed the difference between us and the MAGA cult. So there I was, a 40-something high school teacher with little kids, zero political experience, and no money, running in a deep red district. But you know what? Never underestimate a public school teacher. I represented my neighbors in Congress for 12 years, and I learned an awful lot. I learned how to work across the aisle on issues like growing the rural economies and taking care of veterans. And I learned how to compromise without compromising my values. Then I came back to serve as governor, and we got right to work making a difference in our neighbors' lives. We cut taxes for the middle class. We passed paid family and medical leave. We invested in fighting crime and affordable housing. We cut the cost of prescription drugs and helped people escape the kind of medical debt that nearly sank my family. And we made sure that every kid in our state gets breakfast and lunch every day. So while other states were banning books from their schools, we were banishing hunger from ours. What an incredible introduction to the American people. Walz brought the house down.

Did you see it? Michelle & Barack really laid into Donald at their DNC appearance Tuesday night. It was so bad, it hurt Donnie's fee-fees! And you got the feeling Michelle was holding back since 2016. No more of that "we go high" stuff now -- she went for the jugular! “If we bankrupt a business or choke in a crisis, we don’t get a second, third or fourth chance,” she said.
