It is important to note that she chose not to press charges because she was afraid of retaliation from trump’s worshippers. Party of law and order…

Agreed. Without Tester winning in Montana, the only other close race is Cruz in Texas. And rest assured, Texas is doing everything they can to disenfranchise democrats.

Appreciate it. I got called out for being disrespectful. I was and I will improve. That's my goal as a human.

Agreed. I was in clear violation of Rule 3. The mods did the right thing as I deserved the delete.

My comment wasn't based on our differing opinions, but rather the OP's post/comment history. However name calling isn't cool and as I said in a reply a few hours back, I'll refrain from that in the future.

Fair enough. I didn’t call the OP an idiot, but suggested that if they believe not voting will help the Palestinians they were an idiot. But I’ll refrain in the future.

I said roughly the same thing, while pointing out that the OP has pushed anti voting agenda in the past and got my comment removed (I did use the word idiot). The mods are not allowing discourse here.

She did respond and said she wanted to wait until after her tour so her fans were safe. She is definitely alluding to an endorsement as well.

Here is the quote:

"Let me be very clear: I am not going to speak about something publicly if I think doing so might provoke those who would want to harm the fans who come to my shows," Swift wrote. "In cases like this one, 'silence' is actually showing restraint, and waiting to express yourself at a time when it’s right to.”

Unfortunately, not just voter apathy but voter suppression. Texas is a lot closer to blue than they want to admit, but have done an excellent job with disenfranchisement.

That’s how I feel. I don’t think Texas will actually flip (not impossible though!), it is the message these types of polls are sending that’s important.

Not even the worst thing this company has done in the past year.

You aren’t wrong that his track record on veterans is atrocious and his brainwashed base doesn’t care. But if it can convince a couple thousand people teetering to stay at home (or even better vote Harris), then it is worth it.

This needs to be on billboards in every swing state in the country.

Trump says the civilian award is “better” because everyone [who] gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, they’re soldiers. “They’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets or they’re dead.”

“She [Adelson] gets it, and she’s a healthy, beautiful woman, and they’re rated equal, but she got the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and she got it for — and that’s through committees and everything else.”

Hogan tries to play off as an independent in Maryland (his yard sign colors are libertarian for example), but it is clear he is as MAGA as the next republican based on policies. His main threat is his popularity when he was a governor there. That said, I still don’t think he wins the senate seat.

Vote.

Someone is getting promoted!

JD Vance seems like the type of guy that would upper-deck a national park toilet.

I don’t think a grassroots revolution will be taking place anytime soon, but this is aimed at the young people of Russia who are against the war. The old people there love Putin but I suspect they also aren’t watching YouTube.

While I understand people’s initial reaction to think this is a positive thing, I don’t believe it is. The less free speech and media the Russian people have access to, the more control Putins propaganda machine has.
