@LakotaMan1 My great grandmother on my Dad's side was 1/2 Comanche so I grew up with a little knowledge of Native American. I am very grateful for that.
@CWA@Schwarzenegger I just don't have the patience nor strength,, nor time for bullshit, lying politics. I went so far as to forbid his name be spoken in my house! Extreme? Maybe. But Arnold has given me hope that all is not lost and renewed my faith in mankind! Thank you Ash, and Arnold!
@CWA@Schwarzenegger I so totally agree with you Ash. When trump said he's running again, I stopped all social media, news, etc in effort to hear none of the upcoming bullshit politicing! I even forbade his name to be spoken in my house! I am 75 and in ill health.
@Schwarzenegger #2 I amm worried about the country my 15 grands and great grands will be left with. I am born and raised in California and remember all our governors too! I have to say that I stood up for you to anyone who challenged your decisions. You were Governor, not celebrity!!
@Schwarzenegger #1 I so love you for the stance you are taking and agree with everything you said. I turned 75 this year and am currently in ill health. I have seen and vividly remember presidents from Eisenhower on to Biden.
BREAKING: Colorado's Secretary of State Jena Griswold absolutely shreds Donald Trump after he appeals the state's decision to kick him off the 2024 ballot over his insurrectionism — says he doesn't have a "get out of jail free card."
This is EXACTLY how you stand up to fascists like Trump...
Griswold, a Democrat, appeared on MSNBC’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell and bluntly laid out the facts, and they don't look good for Trump.
"Donald Trump is trying to argue he did not incite an insurrection while Colorado courts at this point have determined that he did," she said, effortlessly shredding through the MAGA arguments against the ballot removal.
"Then Trump goes on to argue that even if he did incite the insurrection, well, the Constitution doesn’t apply to him. I don’t think that’s right," Griswold went on. "I don’t think that there’s some ‘get out of jail free’ card for the presidency that allows Donald Trump to escape scrutiny of the laws of the land and the Constitution."
Last month, Trump formally asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Colorado Supreme Court's right and just ruling to remove him from the ballot. The state court made their decision since insurrectionists are banned from holding political office under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.
Secretary Griswold said that it is "so important" to have the Supreme Court rule on this issue.
"This is a big question, it’s novel, it’s unprecedented because usually, we do not have presidents trying to steal the presidency," she said. "Usually, we do not have people who engage in insurrection run for president."
She went on to explain that she hopes the ruling comes soon and that she has formally asked the court to move fast.
"So, it’s a quickly approaching timeline," she said. "I do hope that the Supreme Court acts with urgency. Lawrence, the American people deserve to know whether a president can engage in insurrection and then be qualified once again to hold that office."
She could not have put it any plainer terms. The future of this country, of our democracy itself, rests on Donald Trump never becoming president again.
The man is a traitor and an insurrectionist. He belongs in prison. At the very least, he doesn't belong on the ballot.

Can we get 500 retweets on this? This is one hell of an ad from the Democrat running for US Senate in North Dakota. The question is whether people will watch it and share it.

"Twice this week, I have watched an elderly individual, fade into the busy life in which we all live. One man just needed Panadol for his wife but the shop assistant simply said it’s in ‘6’. But he struggled to navigate the supermarket and as I watched him go in the wrong direction, I left all my groceries and took him where he needed to go. Today, I watched an elderly man struggle in the heat, who had obviously had a fall with a huge scrape and blood on his leg. He walked past people in the cafe, while he slowly made his way to his car. Not one person stopped. Or looked. Or acknowledged him. I took him to his car and checked he was ok. He told me he had a fall and wasn’t sure how the air con worked in his car so he just didn’t use it. I sat with him until his aircon kicked in and heard him talk about the old frail body that he is in, that fails him now, every single day.
When you see an elderly person walking down the street, searching in the supermarket, or struggling to their car, take a minute out of your busy schedule and ask them if they need a hand. Think about your grandparents and your parents and how pissed you would be if someone didn’t stop to help them. But more, think of them as you.
Once upon a time, they were you. They were busy, they had work, they had children, they were able... Today, they are just in an older body that is not going as fast as it used to and this busy life is fucking confusing. They deserve our utmost respect and consideration. One day it will be you, it will be us. I wish more people gave a shit about them and acknowledged them for their admirable existence and geez I hope someday, not that far away, someone does it for me.
