Hello, Twitter-verse! We've been lurking for a long time, so we thought maybe we'll say a few things. Or keep lurking. Still deciding.

This is quite simply the best ad I've ever seen. #BlueWave2024

Some of you may be considering sitting this election out, or voting for a third-party candidate, because you strongly disagree with Kamala Harris about Gaza.

This thread is for you 🧵

[Mark & Jen @flackettlevin]

@GaryJanetti we're on our way

[Holly Figueroa O'Reilly @AynRandPaulRyan]

Holy…Listen to every word. This is exactly right. White men: start handling your boys.

(If you are offended by this, you might be the problem.)

[Jerrad Christian @JerradChristian]

Enough said.

So, how and why did a then 94 yo Texas born & raised, Catholic, life-long, two-time Trump voter become a huge Kamala Harris fan? Bear with me, it’s not a short story.

I sold my home & bought a house in the suburb of St. Paul/Minneapolis, MN in the fall of 2021. I chose this city because my dad’s long-term memories are here. I moved my dad in with me so I could care for him. We have a split-level home, and he lives downstairs.

Dad grew up in generational racism. He doesn’t hate people - he was truly uninformed & ignorant. Living with me full-time, a tried & true Lib, well … he was exposed to more information than he had been for decades. Mom passed in 2010. Side note: Dad told her she had to vote Republican. Since the 1952 election (Eisenhower/Stevenson) she told my dad she voted Republican. On her death bed, she told me I could tell dad the truth once she was gone; she never once voted Republican! “He’ll be so mad I canceled out every single vote of his!”

Dad likes to spend time “upstairs” with me. I blocked Fox “News” from MY TV. If he wanted to watch it, he had to do it on his own time & on his own TV. He’d get to the church parking lot early every Saturday evening so he could listen to a conservative radio show, before mass.

In June of 2022, Roe was overturned. When is saw the breaking news chyron on the TV I dropped to my knees and sobbed. He didn’t get it. He didn’t understand why I was so upset, why I was sobbing. I began to explain the ramifications of the decision. He was quiet.

2022 was also an election year in MN for governor. Not long after Roe was overturned Gov. Walz codified abortion & reproductive rights in my state. When the laws passed Dad came to me and said he was glad. He said Dobbs was wrong. He was angry. He asked a question, which changed everything, “Even though I am registered as Republican, can I vote for Walz?” Yes, Dad, oh yes you can – and he DID. This was his first Democrat vote in his entire life, in 76 years of voting.

@andmichaelgreen We enjoy these very much

[A.R. Moxon 🦋 @JuliusGoat]

Last Tuesday Donald Trump shat his pants on national TV. Ever since, he's been scooting his butt around on the national carpet to dislodge the detritus of loserdom. It's standard wounded narcissist self-care behavior, and it would be nice if all of this could be *only* funny. 🧵

A friend of mine is a liberal Dem but anti-vax. She was a diehard @RobertKennedyJr backer — until she saw this video.

She just texted me: “Omg omg. You were right all along. This is so wrong. I’m sorry I supported Bobby. I can’t wrap my head around this.”

@ecareyo Come on, Jason Kelce is delight!

[Adam Conover @adamconover]

There’s a disturbing trend in LA politics that the media isn't talking about: More and more candidates are running as Democrats, but hiding the fact that they’re backed by right-wing Republicans.

It’s happening in CD4, where I live, and it’s going to work unless we stop it. 🧵

[Mark & Jen @flackettlevin]

Not a bad one in the bunch

Lin-Manuel Miranda, you've done it again. Sources say that listening to "Esperando Pelitos" at least once a day enhances hair growth. Stream it now on all music platforms.
