VOTE BLUE

VOTE BLUE BECAUSE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON THIS PIECE OF SHIT AND EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS THIS CRAP NEVER GETTING ANYWHERE NEAR THE REINS OF POWER AGAIN!

VOTE BLUE!

Ever wonder why the mainstream media isn’t calling out the easily provable lies that Trump tells daily, or why they never bring up things like Trump and his son Eric Taking the 5th nearly 1000 times when questioned? How about why they never bring up the obvious cognitive issues when Trump confuses Nancy Pelosi with Nikki Haley, or when he increasingly glitches mid sentence and has to grasp for words?

Ever wonder why the mainstream media doesn’t even mention Trump has told us prior to the 2024 election that he won’t accept the results if he doesn’t win? How about the fact that he did the same thing before the 2020 election and also prior to the 2016 election as well? The mainstream media also doesn’t bother to mention how many of Trump’s associates are convicted felons and seem to have normalized the fact that he is a twice impeached convicted felon himself.

He ran a fraudulent university and a fraudulent charity both of which were shut down. Does that get the attention it deserves? Not only was he found guilty in a court of law of defaming a women he sexually assaulted but there are more than 20 other women that have come forward with similar stories and the idiot is on tape bragging about the very conduct they allege. Past interviews and court documents reveal how closely Trump was tied to the sexual predator Epstein.

With regard to his business acumen it’s hardly mentioned that the buffoon went bankrupt six times and has had a lifelong playbook of not paying those he owes money to. One could go on and on about the corrupt behavior Trump has exhibited his entire life.

That fact that the majority of Americans cannot come together and declare this wannabe dictator unfit shows just how tribal and sick to the core this country has become thanks to not only Fox “News” and the other right-wing pro fascist outlets, but also the so called “liberal” mainstream media.

SO SICK OF THIS BULLSHIT.

IGNORE THE NOISE FROM THE MSM AND VOTE BLUE TO RID THE COUNTRY OF THIS CANCER.

It’s already in motion, folks…

From Mock Paper Scissors:

(The transcript is here, if you would rather read it.)

I missed the interview last night, I thought it was going to be on Sunday.

I want to say right at the top that I am pretty much ride-or-die for President Handsome Joe Biden. I had low expectations for him, and he’s turned out to be a president for the ages (no pun intended). He was handed a bag of merde and made a garden: fighting climate change, building the economy from the ground-up, doing all sorts of things that the Left has wanted for decades. He’s been wildly successful. He’s taken that merde and made gold. He’s an alchemist.

We need to talk about ageism. America has a youth culture, almost a fetish for it. Once you get to be a certain age, you start becoming invisible (ask me how I know!), and our pop-culture, youth-centric world demands it. To wring out that last dollar from the Olds to buy unguents and book spa treatments/surgeries to stave off the ravages of time, our capitalists have made a fortune out of our age-related insecurities. They also manufacture those insecurities, but that’s for another day.

President Handsome Joe Biden has the temerity to be old and in public.

No where in this “interview” does George Stephanopoulos cite or establish any old-age related failures of President Biden. If you are going to take the car keys away from Paw-Paw, you better establish that he’s a threat to himself and others. Stephanopoulos failed; or more accurately never tried to make that case. It was a fact not in evidence.

If Biden is too old, if he is so compromised, then how do we explain everything he’s accomplished? If you think he’s showing signs of dementia, then you must reconcile that with the fact that no one can point to a single age-related failure he’s made during his time in the Oval. I might disagree with some of his foreign policy, but that does not mean he’s decrepit.

How can anyone accept his many achievements (just look at the jobs report just out!) and in the same breath say he’s too old to do the job he’s already doing magnificently?

President Handsome Joe Biden might be the first president who could lose his job over the vibes of being old, and looking old. And that is ageism.

UPDATE 1: As a sort of counterpoint about how the media is creating a narrative that President Handsome Joe Biden is old, look at what they are ignoring or have normalized without any protest:

Don’t listen to them. A lot of the chatter you see scrolling across your screens advocating for Biden to bow out of the race is pure Russian-bot-generated propaganda. Russia is afraid of Biden and you can rest assured they will do everything in their power to ensure that their useful puppet Trump is put back into office.

“Citizens should not obey in advance. Much of fascism is a bluff — look at our loyal cult, listen to our outrageous language, heed our threats of violence, we are inevitable! Hitler was good at that sort of propaganda. Yet to gain power, he needed luck and the errors of others. American fascism, likewise, is far from inevitable. It, too, is largely bluff, most of it digital.

The internet is much more fascist than real life, which is discouraging. But we vote in the real world. The crucial thing is the individual decision to act, along with others, for four months, a little something each day, regardless of the atmospherics and the polls and the media and the moods.”

From Palmer Report:

As I touched on yesterday, the 2024 presidential election is starting to have echoes of 2016. We’ve got the entire media (on both sides) dishonestly whacking away at the Democratic candidate in the name of trying to manufacture ratings, even while going soft on a scandal-plagued Republican candidate because everyone already knows he’s scandalous. But I think it’s really important to focus on what’s different this time.

The media spent every single day of the 2016 election cycle pushing false and misleading headlines about Hillary Clinton’s emails. Yet none of that had any deciding impact. How can I say that? According to every expert statistical analysis that’s been performed in the years since, Hillary would have won if not for the last minute Comey letter. The media’s year and a half of lies about Hillary didn’t hand Trump the win. That all happened solely in that final fateful week. Everything that happened prior to that week ended up being meaningless.

So here we are in 2024, and the entire media is once again intent on pushing false and misleading narratives about President Biden’s fitness. Nevermind that Biden, jetlagged, short on sleep, ill, and on cold medicine, was roughly as coherent as Trump on an unusually good night. Biden is fine, Trump is the one who’s deep into dementia, and so of course the media is pushing the opposite narrative for effect.

But none of this is going to matter. Why? Look at the polling averages. The 2024 election was tied within the margin of error before the debate, and it’s still tied within the margin of error. Nothing changed. This means that no one out in the real world thinks that this debate mattered or that there’s anything wrong with Biden. All this wall to wall fictional media hype about Biden’s fitness isn’t impacting the people out there who are going to do the actual voting.

This is simply going to be yet another one of those elections where the entire media lies about the Democratic candidate the entire time, and we simply have to overcome it. Remember, we did overcome it in 2016, if not for a last minute fluke. And while another fluke can happen, there’s no reason to expect that it’ll happen in the way it did in 2016, or that the shift will even go in the same direction this time. That’s the thing about flukes: they’re not predictable, and anyone who claims to be able to predict flukes is full of it.

Aside from the fact that there isn’t going to be a Comey letter this time around, I believe there’s a much more important difference in 2024: us. No really. You have to understand what it was like back in 2015 and 2016, when the entire media (including the beloved MSNBC) was spending every single day pushing false narratives about Hillary’s emails. I was pretty much the only person trying to push back against it. I was new to this line of work and I didn’t have much influence. I did what I could, but it was just me and the handful of people following me back then.

This time it’s an entirely different game. There are a night and day number more people reading Palmer Report now than there were back in 2016. And that’s because so many more of you are now in a place where you recognize the media’s false narratives and you want to be able to push back against them effectively.

It’s also not just Palmer Report this time around. In 2024 there are a number of other political analysts and activist groups who are willing to call out the media on its bullshit each day (Meidas Touch, Mueller She Wrote, Aaron Rupar, just to name a few). I don’t see any of these folks as competitors. I see them as a welcome relief. This is more of what we need.

As for the Palmer Report audience and community, you’re a large army at this point, and you’re eager to go out and set the record straight. You’re also willing to go out and do the kind of work that needs to be done in order to win any competitive election: small dollar donations, volunteer shifts, knocking on doors, phone banking, sending voter registration postcards, you name it.

So yes it’s going to be different this time around, because we’re different. We’re better at this than we used to be, and we’re more powerful than we used to be. We’re not going to let the media screw up this election. We’re going to fight back, work hard, and be smart, and we’re going to win: Donate to Palmer Report

I just spoke with my sister (a dyed-in-the-wool blue mainstream Democrat who was already planning on voting for Biden) after she sent me a “Happy 4th of July” text. I replied, “There’s nothing good about it, Sorry. FUCK TRUMP, FUCK REPUBLICANS, FUCK THE SUPREME COURT, FUCK PROJECT 2025.”

She had not heard of Project 2025. I told her to Google it. She came back, aghast. I think if more people knew of the Republican’s dystopian plan for America it would cinch a Democratic President, Senate, and Congress.
