She spent yesterday on the telephone for most of the day. I read that yesterday that she called the party leaders in all 50 states. That would take me three days.

She's renamed her YouTube channel, that's the where to go for video: https://www.youtube.com/@kamalaharris

This is her video on her channel from two hours ago:



To play it, start it, and then move it up to 5:47. This was one of those live videos which don't start at zero.

Former president Donald Trump claimed that members of a Border Patrol union told him that they liked him more than Abraham Lincolnbecause he did a better job protecting US borders.

Trump made the bizarre comment about the 16th president during a rally in Greenville, North Carolina, on Monday. The statement comes after Trump criticized Lincoln for not settling the Civil War.…..

On Monday, Trump discussed the endorsement of a Border Patrol union, claiming that a union official had told him, “I’m the greatest president there’s ever been.”

“I said, ‘what about George Washington?’ ... No, you’re better ... ‘What about Lincoln? What about Abraham Lincoln?’ ... Nope, you’re better,” Trump recalled, according to USA Today.…….

The company explained the owner of that franchise, Derek Giacomantonio, was contacted by local law enforcement regarding Trump’s intention to visit a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania and welcomed the opportunity to host the former president at his restaurant.

Wait - local law enforcement is scouting out locations for the Trump campaign? This seems extremely wrong.

Latino backers of former President Donald Trump laid their hands on the ex-commander-in-chief and prayed for him as they showered him with religious gifts during a visit to Miamifor a roundtable discussion.

The moment came at the end of Trump’s event with Latino supporters on Tuesday when speakers surrounded the former president.

“God’s hand is on this man,” one pastor said, before praying for Trump to win the election. Attendees then made their way to the rope line and reached toward the former president in prayer.

“Today, Lord, we lift up the man that we believe you've put your hand upon to help restore America and bring America back to the place that honors you, to a place where we will not be kicked out for saying, Christ the King or Jesus is Lord,” one of the speakers said.……

Trump confidant and far-right agitator Laura Loomer has claimed that she’s “blacker” than Vice President Kamala Harris.

Loomer joins the growing number of conservatives, including former president Donald Trump, who have questioned the vice president’s race. Harris’s mother was Indian and her father is Jamaican. The Democratic presidential nominee has long talked about being Black in America and what her race means to her.

On October 18, Loomer appeared on Rumbleon her program Loomer Unleashed, during which she claimed that Harris had “rolled out more of her fake accents.”

“I mean, she might as well just start talking about fried chicken and watermelon because her policies and her outreach to Black Americans is, is very offensive,” she added, according to Media Matters. “I’m not Black, obviously. I’m not going to pretend to be Black like Kamala Harris does, although I will say I’m blacker than Kamala Harris.”…..

Eminem is reportedly set to introduce former US president Barack Obama at a presidential campaign rally in his hometown of Detroit tonight (22 October), after Donald Trump made a number of disparaging remarks about the city.

The Grammy Award-winning rapper’s stance on Trump goes back years, as he has previouslyhit out at the Republican nominee in a viral, blistering critique at the 2017 BET Hip Hop Awards……

This is the state of the election. I would like to find out if they were even cited by police.

Yesterday I noticed a Harris Walz sign at the bottom of our road with a cat on it. Today I noticed that someone had turned it around so that only the blank white backside of the sign was facing the road.

So I stopped and turned it back around facing the road.

I'll probably have to turn around again tomorrow.

I also noticed a new Criminal sign up today, the first one I've seen. It's at a house that always has a criminal's sign up. They took down a 4 year old one to put this new one up so the number of the Criminal's signs stayed the same.

Trump: ‘I Need the Kind of Generals That Hitler Had’

The Republican nominee’s preoccupation with dictators, and his disdain for the American military, is deepening.

"
"One day, in the first year of Trump’s presidency, I had lunch with Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, in his White House office. I turned the discussion, as soon as I could, to the subject of his father-in-law’s character. I mentioned one of Trump’s recent outbursts and told Kushner that, in my opinion, the president’s behavior was damaging to the country. I cited, as I tend to do, what is in my view Trump’s original sin: his mockery of John McCain’s heroism.

This is where our conversation got strange, and noteworthy. Kushner answered in a way that made it seem as though he agreed with me. “No one can go as low as the president,” he said. “You shouldn’t even try.”

I found this baffling for a moment. But then I understood: Kushner wasn’t insulting his father-in-law. He was paying him a compliment. In Trump’s mind, traditional values—values including those embraced by the armed forces of the United States having to do with honor, self-sacrifice, and integrity—have no merit, no relevance, and no meaning"

Those two are forking or whatever it is he's able to do and no one will convince me otherwise.

Welp that didn't take long.

Welp that didn't take long.

Isn't it weird that this campaign routinely sing the praises of the likes of Orban, Kim & Putin? They never have pleasant thing to say about the Leaders of allied nations, why is that?

A reminder of how much rizz Obama has.

It's insane how easily he can connect. Orator extraordinaire

So, this happened in Milwaukee last night:

MILWAUKEE —
A suspected drunken driver going the wrong way on the interstate nearly struck a vehicle containing Vice President Kamala Harris Monday night in Milwaukee.

WISN 12 News obtained video Tuesday showing the driver getting onto I-794 at St. Paul Avenue via the offramp. The car heads west into the eastbound lanes just as the motorcade is approaching on what was an otherwise closed-off freeway.


The vehicle is seen moving to the left lanes as the first squad at the head of the motorcade passes by. Every one of the more than a dozen vehicles then drives past the car until the final ones, driven by Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Deputies, makes a traffic stop.

The suspected drunken driver was arrested and said he wasn't trying to harm Vice President Kamala Harris

Seems to me that the lead vehicle in the motorcade should have stopped that oncoming hazard and the others should have taken evasive action.

Mass mental illness

I wonder if they would all commit suicide if Trump asked them to do it? Probably not, but apparently they are willing to have the country commit suicide.

[LA - L.A.]

It's so stupid that they think they're actually trolling Harris with these McDonald's stunts. They just make themselves look like they're trying way to hard because it's not even funny, just sad. Who would have ever thought that someone working at McDonalds is something Trump would fixate on ... .

It's because tens of millions of more people can relate to working at a fast food place at some time in their life, than can relate to growing up the son of a millionaire who was given millions to start a business.
