Yikes!!!!!!!!!! This arena for Trump looks EMPTY! Kamala filled it up just a few days ago.

He is cooked 😭

Reminder:

Steve Bannon is miserable in prison right now — picture it, it’s fun to picture it! — and you haven’t thought about him since he went in.

If we play this right, that is Trump’s future as well.

Let’s make it happen.

A message for Trump and his Project 2025

No comment on the vp situation, but this is hilarious.

They are so scared lol

[Alex Vindman 🇺🇸 @AVindman]

I heard a rumor. Trump is too old so he plans on stepping aside to let Vance run against VP Harris.🤭

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

For Donald Trump to be taken down by a Black woman, a prosecutor, is the poetic justice the country has been waiting for.

@BobBoilen Wow! I hope you know what an important contribution this was to American music culture. 🙏🏼

44 years ago, Tiny Desk Unit recorded our first album. It was recorded live at the 9:30 club on July 20, 1980

Literally did not happen. Award does not exist.

@SunRaUniverse One of my favorite sayings by the late David Darling (https://t.co/flTVwVhp5X), my mentor in improvisation beginning in 1999: “Music is the only source of energy that I have known in my life that gives humans a chance to be instantly transformed into spirit.”

[Sun Ra Arkestra @SunRaUniverse]

The curse on this planet is due to the music that musicians are playing, that they’re forced to play, by some who just think of money and don’t realize that music is a spiritual language, and it represents the people of Earth.

Statement from President Joe Biden on Trump's RNC Speech

"Last night the American people saw the same Donald Trump they rejected four years ago. For over 90 minutes, he focused on his own grievances, with no plan to unite us and no plan to make life better for working people. He avoided mentioning his Project 2025 agenda, but still proudly flaunted the worst of MAGA extremism. Americans know exactly where he wants to take this country. They know that he inflicted pain and cruelty on the women of America by overturning Roe v Wade. They know that he destroyed our economy once and will inflict pain on the middle class, that he wants to gut the checks and balances of our Constitution and rule as a dictator on day one.

"Donald Trump's dark vision for the future is not who we are as Americans. Together, as a party and as a country, we can and will defeat him at the ballot box. I look forward to getting back on the campaign trail next week to continue exposing the threat of Donald Trump's Project 2025 agenda while making the case for my own record and the vision that I have for America: one where we save our democracy, protect our rights and freedoms, and create opportunity for everyone.

"The stakes are high, and the choice is clear. Together, we will win."

I recently had the honor of collaborating with my drum buddy Jeff Tripoli on his new album Perspectives (found at https://t.co/9q5ugiWjgq), which is comprised of 10 collaborations between Jeff and other percussionists. Highly recommended!

Wow. UAW responds to Trump’s speech:

From @gabrielwinant, this still by far the best analysis of what JD Vance did to get where he is, and what he ominously represents:
