She's doing it. "The same Black voters who split 70% for Biden to 23% for Trump in previous polling now break 78% for Harris to 15% for Trump." 👍🏿

Future president Kamala Harris did not come to play games. If this holds, and Black folk check and re-check their voter registration every month, then Harris wins.

CNN/SSRS polling still makes the same mistake that everyone makes about US elections: They report on the category "people of color,"🤦🏿‍♂️

What color? Is it Black?

Think you’re registered to vote? Think again. With all this purge’n going on, you could be x’d out and not know it. So, check online with your Sec of State or call your County Board of Elections. Then register your girlfriend, your wife, and your mailman.

Then contact the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, League of Women Voters, Rock the Vote or Black Voters Matter, and commit to a couple of days at your local registration drive. In Florida, it may mean you’ll get arrested. I’ll send a file in a cake.

This is not OK. https://www.comicsands.com/elon-musk-trans-daughter-dead-2668800745.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

If you can imagine, a rapist and felon called the Vice President of the United States “real garbage.”

I can only imagine this man's lawyer rubbing his hands together, and laughing maniacally:

Hard agree!

Also, as an "official act" (hello SCOTUS!), Biden should unilaterally make voting day a national holiday so no one has to choose between participating in democracy or still having a job.

And create a universal vote-by-mail incentive that's so good even red states can't turn it down.

And maybe replace postmaster DeJoy. Like, what the heck. How is that trump stooge still in office?

The media spent a month talking about Biden's mental faculties. They talked about almost nothing else until Biden stepped down.

Now, suddenly, the media has decided that the mental faculties of a presidential candidate is no longer a national emergency that requires constant discussion, and have largely moved on to other topics.

@Tharpa @ScottSoCal @locksmithprime @otownKim @Lightfighter So then: Highway to Hell

Federal minimum wage in:

2012: $7.25
2013: $7.25
2014: $7.25
2015: $7.25
2016: $7.25
2017: $7.25
2018: $7.25

Folks, it's time to raise the damn wage already.

BREAKING: After Kamala Harris raised over $250 million the last 2 days, Clarence Thomas contacted her asking if she’s looking for any vacation guests.

Harris declined the call and referred all inquiries to Rep. Ocasio-Cortez.

"I haven’t seen this level of mass enthusiasm for a Presidential candidate since the Obama '08 campaign. The party is united, and energized. They don’t want to spend a few weeks evaluating who the candidate with the highest favorability rating might be. They want to stand together, declaring in one voice 'We won’t go back' and defeat the existential threat posed by Trumpism."

@ScottSoCal @Tharpa @locksmithprime @otownKim @Lightfighter I’d suggest Dylan’s Knocking on Heaven’s Door but no one would answer him

I had 35,000 music lovers following me at that other site before Elon Musk ruined it. Please follow me here and help spread the word in the Fediverse.

One of the things I liked about Elizabeth Warren's campaign is that she bought the same blazer in a bunch of different colors and paired it with black shirt/pants like she was a Starfleet Admiral.

@locksmithprime @JonChevreau @otownKim @Lightfighter Jesus, that sounds so freaking awesome, I hope you're right. It certainly tracks, according to google. 👍

#Techbros:

Andreessen makes it clear -expects presidential attention -getting since he was 23. Given the number of times Andreessen & Horowitz make refs. to various meetings with various pols, it's easy to get the impression -mostly insulted -they're being treated like ordinary constituents.

Looking at a simple trade against personal liberty -abortion, the rights of gay & trans ppl & possibly democracy itself -IN FAVOR OF #crypto, #AI, & a tax policy they like better.
