There’s three boxes…

They don’t have to be sequential, but if you skip any then it’s harder to get people to feel like they have to show up at the last one

The threat is an excuse for other neoliberal senators to say:

See! We have to support genocide so we don’t lose numbers, it’s not that we want to…

The only correct answer to threats like these is:

We don’t negotiate with terrorists

If he’s gonna leave, make him do it.

As a Republican no one will care about him, all his lobbying money goes away and he’s just another Republican crazy lost in the crowd.

All his money and attention comes from the D by his name. And he can’t beat a maga Republican in a Republican primary.

Lower levels have “recall elections” for this explicit reason.

They’re not built into Senatorships, because people weren’t even supposed to vote for Senator’s, state governments were supposed to just appoint them as the states representatives

The house was for the people to have representation, not the Senate.

We’re way past the point of salvaging our system, there’s a reason the founder’s wanted to redo the constitution every 20 years

Claims there are far more non-citizens on voter rolls than known before

I mean, this is one of those things that has to be true…

Every known non-citizen would be removed immediately. The known number of non citizens will always be zero, and it would be foolish to think mistakes don’t happen occasionally and some non-citizens are on the rolls, even if that number is 1.

That also doesn’t mean their ballot would go thru and be counted. It would likely be flagged at which point they’d be removed.

Someone actually intelligent came up with that one, it sounds like a bombshell and reinforces their beliefs, but is actual sound logic. A trumpet would have never read this far to understand why it’s meaningless.

He’s still very easily manipulated…

And I can’t stress enough how much he wants a Hunter Biden esque “any and all crimes past and future” pardon.

Trump will never resign.

A full pardon for past and future crimes from JD would do it.

If trump like either of his sons he’d want to hand it to them, but JD is the only one that could offer an immediate pardon.

JD keeps him around as a figure head, and can run off trumps image.

It’s a very likely scenario, don’t forget Trump’s brain is mush, if his handlers think it can save the midterms they’ll gaslight him into doing it

8/4/26 or later

Before that and they “waste” one of JD’s hypothetically terms

If they boot trump before that, it counts towards the two term maximum.

It might not be August, but I bet it’s before midterms in an attempt to undercut a blue wave against trump

They may “float” the idea and depending on how midterms shake out he might resign or he might stay in.

But no one is making a move till after 8/4/26

Walking right up to the line of mandatoring “gender hormone therapy”…

While the screenings will be mandatory for eligible service members, Hegseth said that any resulting treatment would remain voluntary. “If treatment is recommended, it’s entirely your choice to receive testosterone replacement therapy,” he said.

Fuck that geriatric piece of shit, his do-nothing presidency is why trump was able to get a second term.

And obviously dude didn’t write any of this book himself, his handlers wrote the book just like they ran the country while he was in office.

He realized it’s easier to take direct bribes them somehow force ships to pay a protection racket…

Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States,” Trump said on social media.

The president said the investments “will be MASSIVE,” though it’s unclear if these would be new commitments relative to what Trump announced after a visit last year to the Middle East.

We can’t afford another Bitch ass neoliberal like Biden, we need the next president to be one that will finally acknowledge we’re in a class war and have been for generations.

We need to hold oligarchs responsible, seize their money and throw them in gen pop federal prisons for decades

“At the time I had no idea who he was, and I only figured it out because another group or twinks leaked Lady G to the media,” Rose continued. “Some queer tried to grandstand critique this, saying we shouldn’t ‘out’ people. I believe bigots with power deserve no peace or privacy, especially when they hold public office. I’m glad they did it. Icons forever.”

There’s at least one blahaj account running around trying to defend Graham…

They really need to read this article and maybe they’d finally figure out not everyone LGBTQ is an ally and not all allies are LGBTQ.

It’s fucking wild to defend Lady G just because they were closeted LGBTQ.

Physical newspapers use shitty font/dpi, part of why it’s huge.

It’s weird he’s grasping like that, but that’s the important bit. It’s an instinctual grasping response even infants have, and people only grab everything in reach when their higher facilities are compromised.

For the last year he’s been freezing in public, long before this “fall”, his brain is shutting down and accumulating damage

Buddy, you think it’s tough keeping one phylactery fed…

One election doesn’t determine the future of the party, unless it’s the DNC chair election and we’ve got 2.5 years till the next one.

I fully expect the current chair to endorse Abdul El-Sayed just like he did with Zohran Mamdani…

But the chair and the party aren’t going to pick sides during the primary, which is what we want.

No, it’s because if he vacates the seat before 8/3/26 a special election must be held by law.

In the normal election, Maise can’t run because he lost his primary

In a special election he can run, split the Republican vote out of spite, and a dem gets the senate seat.

8/4/26 they’ll announce he’s brain dead

In a statement provided to the Guardian, an unnamed DHS official said officers had received a tip from law enforcement partners about their target’s address and had previously spotted two white vans at that property.

"On July 7, officers were almost at the target’s address when they observed a white van with an individual who resembled the target,” the official said.

Because he was Hispanic and drove a work van…

This is the state party…

The DNC is involved in absolutely none of this.

This state party is, unfortunately, run by someone less than a decade out of college who somehow just keeps failing upwards

I have to assume she’s some kind of nepo baby, because it’s wild a state party chair doesn’t have a wikipedia and it takes some oligarch level juice to keep one from being made.

This DNC isn’t going to exert pressure on start parties, which is bad in this case.

Because regardless of how many committees and meetings happen, the Maine Dem chair names whoever they want now

It’s gonna be a shitty pro-Israel neoliberal getting a six year senatorship.

Democratic Party Executive Director Devon Murphy-Anderson

Great…

The person in charge of it was the chief financial executive of the Florida Dem party in 2020.

https://floridapolitics.com/archives/578696-florida-democrats-agree-to-pay-43k-in-settlement-with-fec/

That should make us all super duper confident, and it’s total normal for those Florida Dems to keep failing upwards all over the country.

Edit:

At least she totally took the blame when her Latino outreach program in Florida failed…

Devon Murphy-Anderson, the former finance director for the Florida Democratic Party and cofounder of Mi Vecino, which works to activate Latino voters in Florida, told Newsweek that while Miami-Dade is getting all of the attention, DeSantis’ complete and total win also impressively flipped traditional blue areas like Palm Beach County and Hillsborough County.

“It’s important to know this was a strategy from Florida Republicans, and not to shift the blame to Latino voters,” she argued, seeing the results as “a response to strategic investment by a political party.”

Totally makes sense after all these collosal recent fuck ups in the less than decade since graduating college means she should run a state fucking party and make these kinds of calls.

I still don’t understand why no one else notices this shit.

My own money is on Troy Jackson, who has already created a committee to explore the possibility.

The guy who lost his own smaller primary, immediately called for Platner to resign, and then in pretty much the same breath “reluctantly” filed the paperwork to take over…

Created a committee to explore who should replace Platner?!

I’m waiting on baited breath to hear who he recommends…

/s

Couldn’t get past the paywall, but a caucus style convention is about the only option now.

Would have been better off if he pledged to step down after beating Collins so there’s be plenty of time for a special election.

But this whole thing was orchestrated to cause a rushed decision and counted on Platner putting the movement over himself.
