George Conway is not your friend and he is not on your side. Project Lincoln is not on your side. The way white liberals get tingly because Project Lincoln and their cohorts put out a “spicy take” on Trump is so gross.
The enemy of your enemy ain’t your friend. The enemy of your enemy will fuck you over and Black women know that.
Project Lincoln has been awfully quiet about Amy Coney Barrett.
The reason? They’re not your friends. They’re fine with her and everything she stands for. They just don’t like trump.
Maybe they’ll put out another spicy ad and everyone will get a little tingle up their leg and no one will question why a bunch of Republicans are campaigning for Democrats better than Democrats are campaigning for themselves. 😒
The more legitimacy Democrats give Project Lincoln the more legitimacy they will have if Biden wins. That’s my concern. All of this enemy of my enemy is my friend shit is going to bite Democrats right in the ass. They’re not your friends at all.
Black women have always had skin in the game. white liberals need to wake the fuck up because at the end of the day they are not the ones who will suffer when these grifting assholes drop their current grift, turn around and loudly resume supporting the BS that is the Republican Party. George Conway is out there hyping up Amy Coney Barrett but because he tweets some nonsense about Trump, I’m supposed to jump on his bandwagon? They are not interested in Black peoples liberation and progress so I don’t fuck around with them. None of these “oh but we can use them as temporary allies.” If you’re not an ally for the long term then you can GTFO.
THIS..THIS..THIS!!! The way white liberals fawn over and give legitimacy to George Conway, Project Lincoln, Bill Kristol, Rick Wilson, etc is nauseating.
Black women know that the enemy of your enemy ain't your friend. But hey, mess around and find out.https://t.co/b63Rcoaakx
As loathsome as #BradParscale is, he is clearly in need of immediate, potentially life-saving care and anyone saying otherwise or wishing ill upon him is also in need of psychiatric intervention.
He & every other #Trump sycophant are now at risk of self-harm, btw.
At the debate tomorrow….here’s what i want to see.
Every time Trump lies:
Joe will hold up a large cardboard lollipop that has written on it in giant letters:
“LIE”
Doom keeps steamrolling on no matter who else is talking until he gets his lie out.
Various options: the lollipop approach, yelling “LIE!”, flashing lights, turn his microphone off.
Moderator deducts points, right half of tv screen informs the viewer, someone throws a tomato.
–Whatever but his krapola must be finally outed in real time.

.@realDonaldTrump Undocumented immigrants paid $11.7 billion in state and federal taxes in 2014. You paid nothing – so what's up with your claim that THEY'RE ripping the country off?
I am feeling especially sad today. My son came home after finishing grad school (Masters) this past June and has just left to drive back to PA where he is starting fresh. He came home exhausted after a very long road of hell (best friend dying at 32yrs in 2017, had married in 2016, she came out gay in 2018, now divorced all while going through grad school) and needed rest. He stayed 4 months and has just left, driving across the country to return. He is refreshed, has a new purpose and has shed a LOT of the angst and grief that he came with. We gave him shelter, food and most importantly unconditional love and left him “alone” to heal and rest. I am so proud of him that he took this time for himself. It was so nice to get to know him as an adult because he’s been away since 2005. But just for today, I am sad. If you pray, please pray for a safe journey. He plans to arrive at his new apartment this coming Saturday. Thanks.
Praying for a safe journey! How great that you had the opportunity to get to know him as an adult; in days to come, you’ll reflect on what a great job you did teaching life’s lessons, and be amazed at the great things that he learned that you forgot to impart…
If he’s in eastern PA let me know; happy to be an emergency contact and I’m always good for a home cooked meal…
He’ll be living in West Philly but I will certainly let him know. One of his goals is to be more active politically and in causes like BLM, social injustice, etc. He’s already signed up to be a poll worker and waiting to hear about that. Thank you jazziz2.
Absolutely in my thoughts. I dare say that the drive back will be cathartic as well. Please let us know how he’s doing once he settles in. I’m proud of him, too.
Bertsy I will keep you and your son in my prayers. I so understand. My son moved home going through a horrid divorce loosing his job and not being able to find another, etc. It hurts so much when your children are hurting and you can’t make it all go away. At least you can give them love and a place to refresh. Blessings and all of you.
BREAKING: UK’s Channel 4 has obtained a huge data leak from Trump’s 2016 campaign. The leak reveals personal data of almost 200 million voters used by Trump’s campaign, which manipulated algorithms to deter millions of Black Americans from voting. pic.twitter.com/eT7ssKFiQC
EXCLUSIVE: Channel 4 News investigation reveals a huge Trump campaign data leak, exposing how 3.5 million Black Americans were listed as ‘Deterrence’ – to try to stop them voting in 2016.#DeterringDemocracypic.twitter.com/wkxKfbynu6
GA: Black people are 32% of the population but 61% labeled in the ‘Deterrence’ category. NC: Black people are 22% of the population but 46% of ‘Deterrence’. WI: Black people constitute just 5.4% of the population but made up 17% of ‘Deterrence’. https://t.co/Q0LlLoyNeB

A lot of pundits liked dragging Hillary for not getting out the black vote like Obama did, and didn't enjoy talking about the impact of the end of the VRA or sleazy Trump campaign tactics.
Just going to note how calmly and professionally police handled this armed, agitated, possibly drunken man who allegedly had been violent toward his wife and waved a gun at her, had ten firearms in the house and **failed to comply** with their orders. Just gonna leave that there.
Analysis by Channel 4 News shows Black Americans – historically a community targeted with voter suppression tactics – were disproportionately marked ‘Deterrence’ by the 2016 campaign.
Pelosi Just Suggested Trump Tax Returns Could Invalidate His Supreme Court Justices
“A president who wants parades of the military paying homage to him in front of the White House
like he’s some kind of a dictator, yet is he paying for any of that? The protection of our country? $750? Yeah.
It’s a disdain for America’s working families. It’s a — it’s not right, but our responsibility is to protect and defend and we have to make sure we know what exposure the President Of The United States has to, and what an impact it has on national security decisions for our country.
You’re right. The issue of morality is a larger one. As you began, you said, let me be frank and went through some of the other immoralities that the president has been involved it. It really raises the question. He almost has a conflict in interest how he’s appointed jumps who are all waiting for his cases to rise to the level of district appeals, the supreme court of the United States.”

As I testified at Congress, the Trump campaign used Cambridge Analytica data to deliberately suppress black voters. It was no exaggeration. As @Channel4News reveals, this is how data-driven voter suppression works: https://t.co/D0hHoE3WDD
Once again Trump is stressing for financial help and he has sought foreign help in the past.
Putin may prefer to deal with a fellow kleptocrat.
But the trump architects may prioritize a longer future with Barrett.

Not only will I return the compliment; I must also thank you for rekindling my interest in science. I was a science nerd grades 1 – 10 then gradually lost interest when I couldn’t fit it into my junior year. Frankly, I got tired of being the only Black in the AP science courses and since sometimes you can’t be what you can’t see… Ironic thing is, a lady from my Church, a friend of my Mom was a pharmacist. I had NO IDEA until after I retired from the Marine Corps and joined our scholarship committee… Other ironic thing is it didn’t bother me at all being the only Black in all of the other AP courses. My only non-APs were math and French…

Abraham Lincoln paid 3x more in taxes in 1864 than Donald Trump in 2016. Not more as a share of his income. More in taxes. Lincoln paid $1981.67 in federal taxes on a salary of $25,000 in 1864-1865. Trump paid $750 in 2016, about one-third what Lincoln paid, but 151 years later.
My son has worked in the grocery store since he was 16. He worked during the pandemic once they started following acceptable procedures. As a college student, he works during breaks. He pays more federal income tax than Donald Trump.
Waking up to the realization that my husband & I pay more in our monthly student loans than Trump pays in taxes is just…whew.

WOW! Judge Sullivan asked Flynn's attorney, Sidney Powell, if she talked about Flynn's case with Trump. She tried to invoke executive privilege!!! Then she said she updated Trump personally on the Flynn case!!!
Judge Sullivan asked the prosecutors if the court should take into account Trump's tweets in connection w/the prosecutor's argument that the attempted dismissal of Flynn's case has nothing to do w/politics. After dancing around a bit, the prosecutors said, "no."
Retired Judge John Gleeson, appointed by Judge Sullivan to (essentially) represent We The People (because Barr won’t do it)…
Gleeson said Judge Sullivan should absolutely take Trump's tweets into account because they expose the real reasons for Barr's absurd mental gymnastics/pretextual reasons for dismissing Flynn's case. It's a political favor for a corrupt associate of the president.
“Sen. Harris On Trump’s Tax Avoidance: It’s Just Completely, Patently Unfair”
“Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris, in a Last Word exclusive interview, says after reports of Donald Trump’s tax avoidance, the voters deserve full disclosure of his financial interests and indebtedness. She tells Lawrence O’Donnell the reports show Donald Trump is “prepared to put his personal interest ahead of the American people.”
CDC Director Robert Redfield was overheard saying that Dr. Scott Atlas (Coronavirus Adviser) is misleading Trump on data regarding masks, young people, and “herd immunity”:
About Atlas: “Everything he says is false”.
Dr. Richard Besser, former Acting Director of the CDC, President and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, speaking to Joy Reid:
Reid: “I used to live there (in Florida) and I see these videos of people herding into bars since the Governor of that state re-opened bars. The Tampa Bay Times reports that Florida surpassed 700,000 cases as the state enters its Phase 3 re-opening. DeSantis has removed ALL the restrictions (shows video). If Donald Trump is getting bad information, saying that herd immunity will solve the virus. And governors like DeSantis are acting on what seems like the same idea: Just let people go wild, go in the bars, be wherever they want. And suddenly that will solve it. How do we ever get out of this nightmare?
How do we ever end this pandemic?”
Dr. Besser:
Yes. I mean this is a really dangerous situation.
You know Joy, do you remember over the summer? We saw cases going up dramatically in Florida, in Texas, in Arizona, in California. And so much of that has been related to what young people have been doing – gathering together, really downplaying the impact of this. And so if that’s what’s taking place in Florida. If they’re moving away from the measures that actually have worked in bringing down cases in those states: Wearing masks, social distancing, keeping bars and restaurants closed for indoor activity. If they move away from that, it’s logical what’s going to happen. The cases are going to go up. And the thing about disease in young people. While most young people will do relatively well with this. Not all will. There’ve been a lot of deaths in young people as well. But young people don’t give the infection to young people. They spread it to older people. The CDC has published good data on this. A week or so after you see the rise in young people, you see the rise in older people. Older people are at greater risk of bad disease and dying. So if the president is getting advice from someone who is not an infectious disease expert and he is leading with that advice, the whole nation suffers.”
Asked about the re-opening of Florida’s bars and restaurants, Dr. Fauci said:
“That is very concerning to me. We have always said, myself and Dr. Birx…that is something we really need to be careful about. Because when you’re dealing with community spread. And you have the kind of congregate setting where people get together, particularly without masks, you are really asking for trouble.”
Reid:
“The other kind of congregate setting that is concerning to a lot of parents right now are schools.
Whether it is Colleges or whether it’s Elementary, or High Schools. The Atlanta Journal Constitution has noted that the state of Georgia has been not telling parents. They’ve been withholding COVID-19 counts from the public. Georgia health officials have decided to withhold information about Coronavirus infections at each school, saying ‘the public has no legal right to information about outbreaks that the state is investigating.’ So when you add to the congregate setting, even in the places the Governor finally let up and allowed localities to put in mask orders if they want to. But in some of these schools, parents are sending their kids in, or teachers are going in, and they don’t have any idea that anybody has Coronavirus.
How dangerous is that?”
Dr. Besser:
“There needs to be transparency on this.
And one of the things that we’ve been calling for as a foundation in a big way is data has to be collected and broken down by race, ethnicity, by zip code. So you can see how this is playing out across different schools, in different school districts. We know that a lot of schools in America are funded off of property taxes. So wealthier schools are going to be able to do more to protect the students and staff and teachers, than schools in lower income communities. And we know that many of those communities have a higher proportion of Black and Brown children. What does it say about us as a country if we’re not ensuring that all children are safe, and staff and teachers are safe? And we’re not getting this information across the board. It is something that has to happen.”
Reid: “The midwest is seeing a surge in COVID cases. Do you worry now that any state that is very very trumpy, are you going to be having people getting very sick?
Dr. Besser:
“I worry a lot that when you have any state, and you have a significant number of people, whether it’s 30% or more who aren’t wearing masks, and social distancing, washing their hands, for whatever reasons. Whether it is political and they just don’t believe it. Everyone suffers from that. And not every community suffers equally. So we have to come together as a nation. What we’re seeing in the midwest is going to happen anywhere where people back off of these controls.”

Since tRump is in the habit of (Confession by) Projection, maybe HIS ears should be checked. He probably expects the accusation to be considered ludicrous and Biden won’t be checked…and by extension…he won’t be checked either (IMO).
The Trump campaign is pushing unfounded conspiracies that Joe Biden has worn ear pieces at past debates and will be wearing one tonight. That is a lie. There is no evidence to support that. Campaign officials and conservative reporters who spread this are lying.

Praying for a safe journey! How great that you had the opportunity to get to know him as an adult; in days to come, you’ll reflect on what a great job you did teaching life’s lessons, and be amazed at the great things that he learned that you forgot to impart…
If he’s in eastern PA let me know; happy to be an emergency contact and I’m always good for a home cooked meal…

If you could send me your email addresses, ill pass them along. My email is: bbkenn92@gmail.com.
Check your email.
Ok!! Thanks so much.

Mueller Caved To Trump On Financial Investigation; Failed To Follow The Money: Weissmann
“Andrew Weissmann, one of the lead prosecutors for Special Counsel Robert Mueller, talks with Rachel Maddow about his frustration that the Mueller team did not pursue a financial investigation of Donald Trump that would have answered some of the questions raised by NYT reporting on Trump’s taxes.”
…..How much the Trump White House did not want an investigation.
“Where The Law Ends: Inside the Mueller investigation” by Andrew Weissman:
“Andrew Weissmann, a senior member of the special counsel’s team,
has written an alarming and necessary book”

“Stacey Abrams:
“Trump Taxes Show He ‘Doesn’t Care About Everyday Americans’”
“Stacey Abrams on Pres. Trump paying just $750 in federal income taxes: “That’s not a way to win an election. It’s worse—it’s not a way to govern a country, or to be an American.”
Who does trump owe the $400+ million in debt to?
Last time he made his sick father sign over the estate to fix the mess. How will he fix it this time?
How far will he go to cover it up?
“Donald Trump, facing financial ruin, sought control of his elderly father’s estate. The family fight was epic.”
“It was basically taking the whole estate and giving it to Donald,”
Trump’s sister said in secretly recorded audio.

Hey trumpies…
HIS TYCOON IMAGE IS A SCAM.

Hold Fox News responsible for hundreds of thousands of American COVID-19 deaths.
–Fox’s cunning willful relentless misinformation aimed at their systematically dumbed down population.
–Their victims are infecting the rest of us who are trying to contain the virus.
“”The Senate should ignore Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination”
“No matter whom President Trump had picked to fill the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Supreme Court seat,
it would be the wrong choice — because it is the wrong time.
Mr. Trump is asking Senate Republicans to perpetrate a damaging injustice
by ramming through a nominee
on the eve of a presidential election.”

Fine idea:) When you have nothing to hide, you hide nothing.
Susan Rice, former Ambassador to the United Nations:
“Trump’s massive debt is ‘very much a nation security concern’”
“It is very much a national security concern, from a security clearance point of view,” says Susan Rice of Trump’s $421M debt. “But also … for the reason that we don’t know who has leverage over him.”

“Biden Campaign Criticizes Facebook For Not Removing False or Misleading Trump Posts”
“The president has used his social media channels to spread conspiracy theories about the presidential race, particularly about mail-in voting, which he insists would “rig” the general election.”

Heartbreaking news out of App State. An asymptomatic 19-y/o basketball player has died of #COVID19 complications. This was entirely avoidable & admin must be held fully accountable for the impact their decisions are having on the campus & our community

Van Jones was on CNN talking about how Donald Trump has helped the black community. Are freaking kidding me?
Van Jones has moved off the reservation.
Agreed about Van Jones, been a bit of a disappointment for a long time.
How exactly has PP helped the black community?
Just like his old man young Lieberman is just in the race to fuck it up for Warnock.
Good afternoon,, TODville! Lazy day. I feel silly…
Excellent idea!!

That doesn’t stop Biden from mentioning it. In fact, he should throw in that bit of information as often as he can.
😊👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I hope nobody got whiplash following this one…
Retired Judge John Gleeson, appointed by Judge Sullivan to (essentially) represent We The People (because Barr won’t do it)…
“Sen. Harris On Trump’s Tax Avoidance: It’s Just Completely, Patently Unfair”
“Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris, in a Last Word exclusive interview, says after reports of Donald Trump’s tax avoidance, the voters deserve full disclosure of his financial interests and indebtedness. She tells Lawrence O’Donnell the reports show Donald Trump is “prepared to put his personal interest ahead of the American people.”
CDC Director Robert Redfield was overheard saying that Dr. Scott Atlas (Coronavirus Adviser) is misleading Trump on data regarding masks, young people, and “herd immunity”:
About Atlas: “Everything he says is false”.
Dr. Richard Besser, former Acting Director of the CDC, President and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, speaking to Joy Reid:
Reid: “I used to live there (in Florida) and I see these videos of people herding into bars since the Governor of that state re-opened bars. The Tampa Bay Times reports that Florida surpassed 700,000 cases as the state enters its Phase 3 re-opening. DeSantis has removed ALL the restrictions (shows video). If Donald Trump is getting bad information, saying that herd immunity will solve the virus. And governors like DeSantis are acting on what seems like the same idea: Just let people go wild, go in the bars, be wherever they want. And suddenly that will solve it. How do we ever get out of this nightmare?
How do we ever end this pandemic?”
Dr. Besser:
Yes. I mean this is a really dangerous situation.
You know Joy, do you remember over the summer? We saw cases going up dramatically in Florida, in Texas, in Arizona, in California. And so much of that has been related to what young people have been doing – gathering together, really downplaying the impact of this. And so if that’s what’s taking place in Florida. If they’re moving away from the measures that actually have worked in bringing down cases in those states: Wearing masks, social distancing, keeping bars and restaurants closed for indoor activity. If they move away from that, it’s logical what’s going to happen. The cases are going to go up. And the thing about disease in young people. While most young people will do relatively well with this. Not all will. There’ve been a lot of deaths in young people as well. But young people don’t give the infection to young people. They spread it to older people. The CDC has published good data on this. A week or so after you see the rise in young people, you see the rise in older people. Older people are at greater risk of bad disease and dying. So if the president is getting advice from someone who is not an infectious disease expert and he is leading with that advice, the whole nation suffers.”
Asked about the re-opening of Florida’s bars and restaurants, Dr. Fauci said:
“That is very concerning to me. We have always said, myself and Dr. Birx…that is something we really need to be careful about. Because when you’re dealing with community spread. And you have the kind of congregate setting where people get together, particularly without masks, you are really asking for trouble.”
Reid:
“The other kind of congregate setting that is concerning to a lot of parents right now are schools.
Whether it is Colleges or whether it’s Elementary, or High Schools. The Atlanta Journal Constitution has noted that the state of Georgia has been not telling parents. They’ve been withholding COVID-19 counts from the public. Georgia health officials have decided to withhold information about Coronavirus infections at each school, saying ‘the public has no legal right to information about outbreaks that the state is investigating.’ So when you add to the congregate setting, even in the places the Governor finally let up and allowed localities to put in mask orders if they want to. But in some of these schools, parents are sending their kids in, or teachers are going in, and they don’t have any idea that anybody has Coronavirus.
How dangerous is that?”
Dr. Besser:
“There needs to be transparency on this.
And one of the things that we’ve been calling for as a foundation in a big way is data has to be collected and broken down by race, ethnicity, by zip code. So you can see how this is playing out across different schools, in different school districts. We know that a lot of schools in America are funded off of property taxes. So wealthier schools are going to be able to do more to protect the students and staff and teachers, than schools in lower income communities. And we know that many of those communities have a higher proportion of Black and Brown children. What does it say about us as a country if we’re not ensuring that all children are safe, and staff and teachers are safe? And we’re not getting this information across the board. It is something that has to happen.”
Reid: “The midwest is seeing a surge in COVID cases. Do you worry now that any state that is very very trumpy, are you going to be having people getting very sick?
Dr. Besser:
“I worry a lot that when you have any state, and you have a significant number of people, whether it’s 30% or more who aren’t wearing masks, and social distancing, washing their hands, for whatever reasons. Whether it is political and they just don’t believe it. Everyone suffers from that. And not every community suffers equally. So we have to come together as a nation. What we’re seeing in the midwest is going to happen anywhere where people back off of these controls.”
Since tRump is in the habit of (Confession by) Projection, maybe HIS ears should be checked. He probably expects the accusation to be considered ludicrous and Biden won’t be checked…and by extension…he won’t be checked either (IMO).
Only thing the Mob Dicktraitor understands is Wrestling Pre-Show entertainment.
Let’s hope he turns up in shiny satin wrestling shorts and a frikn gold plated bandanna.
