LP, now it is so very important that every voter in North Carolina KNOWS this decision so they cannot be fooled at the polls and know their rights. If a poll worker demands an ID, they have to fight back and call the designated Dem attorney on call. I feel certain the Hillary campaign will have a ‘go to’ legal support person in every county, as they do in PA.
Forgive me. But what part of REPUBLICAN OPS don’t we get?
The KOCH brothers spend a lot of time and trouble effing up the Democratic vote.
They messed with the Primaries and the ugliness continues.

I feel so bad for Malia having to live in a bubble. She can’t even go to a freaking concert without some hater turning it into an indictment on her or her parents. I guess they thought she was a delegate to the DEM convention and should have been Philly. It’s trending on Twitter.
BREAKING! @POTUS and @FLOTUS allow daughter Malia Obama to act an ordinary 18-year old. #DNC
I think this guy is being sarcastic, no? But seriously, whatev Haters, whatev. Tryingto manufacture outrage about this, that’s some pretty weak azz sauce. :eyeroll:

Top US trade official: Rejecting the TPP would hand China the ‘keys to the castle’ on globalization
“LIMA (Reuters) – Failure to ratify the U.S.-led sweeping trade pact TPP would hand China “the keys to the castle” on globalization and do nothing to solve the real problems underlying American anxiety over jobs, the top U.S. trade official said Thursday. ”

A Shawnee County District Court judge ruled Friday afternoon that the votes of 17,500 people whose registrations had been questioned will be counted in Tuesday’s primary.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit against Secretary of State Kris Kobach on behalf of three Kansas voters who were told they could vote in federal elections, but that their votes in state and local elections would not be counted.
Many of the voters in question registered under the federal “motor voter law.” Though they satisfied federal voting laws when they registered at motor vehicle offices, they did not provide proof of citizenship like a U.S. passport or a birth certificate. Under a 2013 Kansas law, a new voter must show proof of citizenship to vote in an election.
The elections director with the secretary of state’s office estimated earlier this month that more than 17,000 voters could be affected by the requirement. That number could grow to 50,000 around the time of November’s general election.
Kobach is the person behind the awful SB 1070 in AZ. He needs to be disbarred
No, I’m convinced he is on the ultimate ego trip, inhaling all the attention EVERYONE gives him, hate or love. Narcissists are junkies for attention. He does NOT want to be president to govern….this ape wants to be king of the world. Now, I will try to get past this weekend without sight or sound of this throwback. Peace !!
How mostly White male talking heads on the left and right completely ignore the asendency and power of the Democratic Party’s inclusive and multifaceted base.

The morning after Fox News chief Roger Ailes resigned, the cable network’s former director of booking placed a call to the New York law firm hired by 21st Century Fox to investigate sexual-harassment allegations against Ailes. Laurie Luhn told the lawyers at Paul, Weiss that she had been harassed by Ailes for more than 20 years, that executives at Fox News had known about it and helped cover it up, and that it had ruined her life. “It was psychological torture,” she later told me.
So far, most of the women who have spoken publicly about harassment by Ailes in the wake of Gretchen Carlson’s lawsuit had said no to Ailes’s sexual advances. They ran out of hotel rooms, they pulled away from embraces, they complained or avoided or generally resisted, even when it hurt their careers. This is the account of a woman who chose to go along with what Roger Ailes wanted — because he was powerful, because she thought he could help her advance her career, because she was professionally adrift and emotionally unmoored.
This is really strange, all of a sudden all of these states are reversing the laws past. Do you think The Donald has scared the hell out of the judges and they don’t want to help elect him? Could be. Any thoughts on that?
In reference to a tween on Malia Obama.
I find it offensive that people focus on a minted 18yo. Whereas, GH & GW Bush, Willard Mitterrand Romney, John McCain, etc didn’t attend the GOP Convention.
OMG YOU GUYS MALIA OBAMA SKIPPED THE DNC. meanwhile 4 out of 5 living Republican presidential nominees skipped the RNC so STFU.
Will it change anything? Will the GOP hear? I am very doubtful. Have decided that there is NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING that DT could say or do that would ‘sink’ him or make anyone in the GOP speak up and say “Enough. We’re done.”
You’re right. They’re hopeless. Still a poignant moment for the rest of us with souls who care about what that cretin might do to this country. Maybe a few folks who haven’t taken this election or even their citizenship seriously until now were touched by them and would be moved to act – register, volunteer, organize, vote, run for office.
Donald J. Trump needs help. It isn’t Hillary inviting foreign Government to hack into the State Department. How the hell could the Republican Party allow itself to have someone like Trump as their nominee.

Little media mentioned passage in Sen Kaine’s speech from Wed. was his shout out to not only his son but Pence’s marine deployed son too.

Incredible. He’s defending Putin killing journalists like it’s no big deal.
Funniest thing in a long time! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Sorry for the duplicate. I was trying to post this follow-up tweet.
And then I had to add mine to the mix:) Good news:)

I’m sure there’s other states, but CA makes it pretty easy to vote, and no ID required.
If you’re wondering just how blue CA is… (LOL)
And Meta tweeted this, proof that Tom Torlakson, CA Superintendent of Public Instruction is indeed acting Governor now.
Oh I know how blue CA is. I’m hoping to see Georgia slide back to blue this year.
Good news for Kansas voters

Lost it over this one! Best laugh today. Trump actually thinks that he accomplished something that the 43 of 44 white men before him did not?
That man is sick. Somebody needs to come get him.

Former Fox News Booker Says She Was Sexually Harassed and ‘Psychologically Tortured’ by Roger Ailes for More Than 20 Years

3: For Trump campaign, Pence now basically the guy who shows up at the hotel with apologies & a checkbook after the rock band pulls out.
This is really strange, all of a sudden all of these states are reversing the laws past. Do you think The Donald has scared the hell out of the judges and they don’t want to help elect him? Could be. Any thoughts on that?
not just the deadbeat, the entire rethugs party is scaring the pants off of all sane people.
if I had my tin foil hat on…yes, I think the entire GOP is scaring people.
someone on another blog said the same thing last week.
Notice the contrast …. 😀 😀
Wishing all of you a fun weekend … GOTV …. {{{{{{Chips}}}}}} …. Endless Thanks NW for ALL you do!!!!
Well done.
Good Evening TODbots.
Excellent #DemsInPhilly Coverage, NW. Obrigada.

By the way, Mr. and Mrs. Khan will be on with Lawrence O’Donnell tonight.
A moment of cuteness
In reference to a tween on Malia Obama.
I find it offensive that people focus on a minted 18yo. Whereas, GH & GW Bush, Willard Mitterrand Romney, John McCain, etc didn’t attend the GOP Convention.
Nodding in agreement.
Who is making a big deal out of Malia skipping the DNC? Those sick ass right wing haters.
Upstaged?????
Couldn’t resist …. 🙂
The Last Word is featuring the Muslim, Mr. Khan. Awesome!
Capt. Khan’s mother is tearing up…I am also in tears!
Times like this I so detest George Bush and Cheney! So sad watching Mr. Khan and his wife.
I’m sitting here a teary mess. Their pain just oozes through the screen. This is so sad.
OMG! He is directly calling out McConnell and Ryan. WOW! I am……….
Good for him. Bless him.
who is Tmtngirl?
Mr Khan
That was heartbreaking, but so important.
Will it change anything? Will the GOP hear? I am very doubtful. Have decided that there is NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING that DT could say or do that would ‘sink’ him or make anyone in the GOP speak up and say “Enough. We’re done.”
You’re right. They’re hopeless. Still a poignant moment for the rest of us with souls who care about what that cretin might do to this country.
