Kamala Harris after she is interrupted by a demonstrator: "Ours is about a fight for democracy and your right to be heard. That is what is on the line in this election. Look, everybody has a right to be heard, but right now I am speaking."
Tennessee church worship leader & christian school teacher, Kade Abbott, has been sentenced to only 6 years in prison for grooming & raping a 14 year old student on an overnight school trip.
South Carolina baptist youth pastor, Daniel Mayfield, who was arrested for secretly recording young girls in his church bathroom, has been charged with additional sex crimes.
Mayfield now faces nearly 150 alleged sex crimes in multiple counties.
His rally yesterday was his "closing message to voters".
It was filled with hate, derision and division.
You know who he is.
You know what he is.
Don't hide behind his "policy proposals". They range from word salads to economic disaster.
Don't hide behind your conservative voting record. He has captured your party, not captivated it.
Don't hide behind your Christian values. He is the least Christian person, both in word and deed, in the history of the world.
How you vote now...says everything about you.

I am 85 years old. I have experienced the American Dream because I was born a white, American male; I was privileged. Women did not have that privilege, African-Americans did not have that privilege, people of color did not have that privilege, Native Americans did not have that privilege, non- heterosexuals did not have that privilege--it was reserved for white, American males who presented as heterosexual.
In the 1960's and 1970's a sense of optimism filled the air in America, a genuine feeling that the American Dream could be made available to all people regardless of sex, color, creed, race, national origin or sexual orientation. It was a tumultuous time, the civil rights movement, assassinations, the Watergate scandal, the Vietnam War protest movement; nevertheless, there truly was the feeling of a promise of a better tomorrow.
Because we were so optimistic, we let down our guard; we took our freedoms for granted, a big mistake; freedom is a fragile gift that must be closely guarded.
I can't pinpoint the exact time when the change began, I think it was when Ronald Reagan was elected President. A popular actor, a gentle-speaking likeable man, a convert to "conservative" values, a perfect puppet for the elitists, white supremacists and authoritarians who have been ever-present in our society since its very beginnings. "Trickle-down" economics seeped in, anti-trust regulations were relaxed, “Free Markets” was the slogan of the day, human beings were reduced to chits on a profit board, consumerism took hold as the gap between the richest and the poorest widened into an insurmountable divide during the ensuing decades. Money became the weapon of the rich and powerful white supremacists and Fascists who now seek to overthrow our tattered republic. Donald Trump is their latest puppet.
We are in a very dark place--BUT WE ARE STILL A LIVING, BREATHING REPUBLIC.
On November 5th, American citizens will be voting to decide whether our nation will remain a living, breathing Republic or will go the way of Russia, China, India, Hungary and all the other regimes that oppress their people under the heel of totalitarianism. THE CHOICE IS OURS; EVERY VOTE IS CRITICAL; THE SUM TOTAL OF OUR VOTES WILL ECHO THE VOICE OF FREEDOM.
Donald Trump has a fixed base of mindless supporters that will not grow significantly. If freedom-loving voters go to the polls, we can have a decisive victory and we can then begin the long and challenging task of restoring the promise of a better tomorrow, not just for American citizens, but FOR ALL HUMAN BEINGS.
I am an old man; I will not live to see my AMERICAN-DREAM-FOR-ALL come true. I have devoted my life to. this cause. Please allow me to celebrate the beginning of a better tomorrow for America and the world. IT CAN HAPPEN ON NOVEMBER 5TH!
Be well.
Two years ago he donated a kidney to a man he didn't know, he volunteered for the reserves and fought for us in Lebanon, today he fell in battle. Sergeant Eliav Abitbul, rest in peace, hero.
Just imagine the Oval Office in three months:
It’s either Donald Trump in there, stewing over his enemies list—or me, working for you, checking off my to-do list.
This passage from Michelle Obama:
"I hope you'll forgive me if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you'll forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline. His history as a convicted felon. A known slumlord. A predator found liable for sexual abuse. All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do, y'all."
Our children are already growing up in a country where a presidential candidate can spew hate, threaten opposition, and express admiration for Hitler. It’s time to change course, and let Trump be history. Watch our ad “Their Future” on @msnbc with @Lawrence.
Donald Trump said “I need the kind of generals that Hitler had.”
As a 24-year veteran of our military, that makes me sick as hell — and it should make you sick.
NYT tweeted this to its 55 million followers and it has under 500 retweets - presumably suppressed due to the link out. “John Kelly, Donald Trump’s longest-serving chief of staff, said Trump met the definition of a fascist and would try to govern like a dictator if elected”
