       Let’s call him GTBTPT from now on.  Grab Them By The Pussy Trump.  So believable since he himself told us how he was….#trump #voteblue #republicans <<<During her testimony Tuesday, Leeds told jurors that she encountered Trump in 1979 on a plane flight after being upgraded to first class. Leeds, 81, said she wound up seated next to Trump, now 76, and alleged that he began groping her after first-class passengers were served dinner.
“There was no conversation,” Leeds testified. “It was like out of the blue.”
Leeds described the encounter as a struggle, saying Trump tried to kiss her and pull her toward him against her will.
“He was grabbing my breasts,” Leeds said. “It was like he had 40 zillion hands.”
When Trump tried to jam his hand up her skirt, Leeds testified, she was able to break free and move back to her original seat. >>>Trump accuser testifies that he groped her ‘out of the blue’https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/05/02/e-jean-carroll-trump-trial/

       @TonyStark Let’s not kid ourselves.  If they’re not stopped, the right to vote itself will once again belong to only white, male, property owners…..

       Biden has quietly gone about the business of governing.  No daily drama, no diva rants, no deliberate name calling tweets.  No carnival barking, inept distractions. Just governance in a landscape full of land mines; real & imagined.  Do I wish for a younger democratic candidate?  Yes.  But I wish that for Biden’s sake. Unlike Feinstein, he hasn’t shown any evidence of serious decline.  He’s old.  But so is over 20% of the pop., and over 40% of elected reps. Stack that against the EQUALLY old pretender, I’ll take Biden hands down.   One is an elder statesman; the other an old clown looking to stay out of jail and keep up the grift. #voteblue<<First, voters need to maintain a sense of perspective. “Don’t compare me to the Almighty. Compare me to the alternative,” the president likes to say. He has a point, particularly if the alternative to four more years of Mr. Biden is four more years of Mr. Trump — who would himself be 78 on Election Day next year. >> https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/05/19/joe-biden-age-election-trump/

       Isn’t this the same mistake the media makes (and apparently millions of Americans)??  Instead of recognizing his mental disorders and treating him accordingly, the media keeps covering him as rational.  tRump is a narcissistic pathological liar not some outlandish political rogue.  He was raised without rules, consequences, or love.  Was nobody listening when he joyfully said:  “When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.” Anything!  He believes not just that he can get away with anything, BUT THAT WE LET HIM DO IT !  #VoteBlue <<“I’ve never met anyone who was more sure that he was right on every topic,” Sue Gordon, a career intelligence officer said in an interview. “I’ve tried not to assume motivation. But clearly he did not recognize the authority of the system. And that’s a problem, because the system was playing as though he was part of it, not an individual making his own rules.”>>. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/06/10/trump-presidency-classified-documents-indictment/

       Well we can always count on republicans turning their back on their supposed sacred tenants.  Local government joins law and order, education, and freedom in abandonment.  Their greed and deference to corporate money is their only sacred cow.  They will be the death of us. #voteblue #ClimateChange <<GOP lawmakers and their allies – who have traditionally championed local governance – say they’re preventing aggressive climate mandates from harming consumers and businesses. Environmentalists say these moves set a dangerous precedent of disempowering local officials who want to combat climate change.
As many state legislative sessions draw to a close, here’s what to know about these brewing intrastate climate battles: Banning the bans >>Red states are blocking blue cities from setting climate policieshttps://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/06/13/red-states-are-blocking-blue-cities-setting-climate-policies/

       @luckytran That’s rich.  So typical of conservatives to point the finger in the opposite direction.

       Either you’re a public school or a private one.  Naming them “charter” was another gimmick to take tax dollars to support their misogynistic, racists, and class divisiveness ways. The only thing crippling public education is the GOP’s deliberate underfunding of the institution.  #voteblue #defendpubliceducation <<In a statement, Charter Day founder Baker Mitchell called the declination “disappointing,” saying it leaves charter schools subject to “rules, regulations, and political machinations that have crippled government-run school systems” and threatens “the unique classical academic program that has served our students well for the past 24 years.”
The high court has ruled that students cannot be forced to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, that undocumented students have the right to attend school, and that all students, regardless of race, have the right to an equal education.>>Supreme Court won’t hear charter school’s bid to force girls to wear skirtshttps://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/06/26/charter-school-girls-skirts-supreme-court/

       @stux   Definetly, the captain’s gotta be the last one off!  A good leader takes responsibility for what went wrong and gives credit for what went right.  Lead by example, judge by results…..  That’s why they get the big bucks!  At least that’s what by teams always told me 😂

       For fuck’s sake quit voting for republicans.  They have shown us a million times in a million way how little they care about America!  They don’t care about veterans, public school, immigration, jobs, or infrastructure.  Vote them out!#voteblue #gop <<It took decades for Congress to deliver on its promise to pour new money into the nation’s roads, bridges, pipes, ports and internet connections.
Now, House Republicans are trying to slash some of the same funds. >>>House GOP seeks billions in cuts to rail, water infrastructure spendinghttps://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/07/18/republican-spending-bills-infrastructure-cuts/

       All this No Label group tells me is they are afraid Biden will win so they’re doing what they do best; razzle dazzle fuckery..  There is no common sense in appeasement, and that’s all they’re offering…… #voteblue <<In my view, the problem with No Labels is not that it’s trying to find a reform agenda that defies the orthodoxies of either party. The problem is in assuming that such an agenda can be found at the midpoint between the two parties, rather than making the case for whichever policies are right — regardless of whether they sound extreme or which party originated them.
I agree with the critics of No Labels that we don’t need an independent movement to forge a bunch of tepid bipartisan compromises. What we could use, however, is a nonpartisan movement that embraces bold reforms and basic American values, no matter which loud constituency in either party might object. How No Labels is ruining the label of ‘independent’https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/07/20/no-labels-ruining-independent-meaning-centrist/

       Never think for a moment all those efforts to replace workers with technology, and free labor from consumers, isn’t a deliberate attack on wages. #organizedlabor #unions << An Australian millionaire property developer is drawing backlash for calling for more unemployment to give companies more leverage over employees, whom he said had become “arrogant”….
“We need to see pain in the economy,” Tim Gurner, CEO of the Gurner Group, told the Australian Financial Review’s property summit Tuesday. “We need to see unemployment rise — unemployment has to jump 40 to 50 percent, in my view.”
“I think the problem that we’ve had is that people decided they didn’t really want to work so much any more through covid, and that has had a massive issue on productivity,” he said.>>CEO calls for more unemployment to give companies upper hand over workers     https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/09/13/tim-gurner-unemployment/
