Social Media by itself is not going to win this election.

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”
Violent political rhetoric precedes political violence. We’ve seen this story before: January 6, mass shootings at grocery stores and houses of worship, and the plot to kidnap and kill me. Each of these incidents was preceded by calls to arms, lies, or both.
In four days, you have a choice between a guy with an enemies list who stokes violence or @KamalaHarris, a leader who will be president for all Americans. And the choice is clear—we must elect Vice President Harris.
This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced#VoteKamala
My family holds this country close to our hearts. I was shot and nearly killed serving the people of Arizona. So I ask my fellow patriots to reject Trump’s calls for violence and retribution. Let’s elect @KamalaHarris and put this dark chapter behind us once and for all.
This is without a doubt the most culturally competent Spanish language ad I have ever seen a presencial campaign release in my lifetime. Kudos to Team Harris for finally listening to boricuas! #SomosMásYNoTenemosMiedo
Tonight, we join more than 1 billion people across America and around the world lighting diyas and celebrating the fight for good over evil, knowledge over ignorance, and light over darkness.
Happy Diwali to everyone celebrating the Festival of Lights!
I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.
I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.
My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.
That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.
Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.
It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.
I want to tune out.
But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.
And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.
That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.
For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.
The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.
It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!
But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.
It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.
We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.
That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.
Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.
And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H
Bob Woodward on his conversation with Trump’s former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley
“That shook me. He stopped me and said: ‘We got to talk. I tell you that Donald Trump is the most dangerous person ever. A fascist to the core’”
Rick Steves: There was a handful of people who opposed Hitler, refused to do the proper salute, to kiss his ring; these are the Kinzingers, the Liz Cheneys, and the Mitt Romneys…of the German democracy in 1932…
Trump about his racist MSG rally just now: "It was a love fest"
No explanation, no apology. He's trash, throw him away in the dustbin of history in 7 days.
.@Sunny Hostin: "This Puerto Rican has something to say about the island that I love, where my family is from. Puerto Rico is trash? We are Americans, Donald Trump."
"My fellow Puerto Ricans, trash collection day is November 5, 2024. Don't forget it."
Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.)
To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!
Un día después de que llamaran a Puerto Rico “una isla repleta de basura” salí corriendo a votar.
Le recuerdo a todos mis compatriotas que el día nacional de recogido de basura es el 5 de noviembre.

Why are Floridians homeowners insurance premiums so high?
All due to Rick Scott and his efforts to privatize the insurance market. As if committing Medicare fraud wasn’t enough.
Please make a change in the US Senate and vote Debbie Mucarsel-Powell on Nov 5th!
