- I’m voting for the candidate who doesn’t have a side gig as a sneaker salesman.
- The Harris-Walz ticket has one thing badly needed in America since 2015: a layer of gleeful energy. (Dare I say, hope?) After a period where the guy who won the election painted the nation from Day One as a demonic hellscape 24/7, genuine smiles and laughter and vision are welcome. And Democrats weren’t the only ones who needed it; the nation did.
- Dem VP selection Tim Walz will become the favorite of crossword puzzle creators across America.
- Funny how the first fake corruption claim against Joe Biden touted by House Republicans was that “the Biden crime family” got $10 million from China (or maybe it was Ukraine) and that was the accusation that launched a thousand investigations, but now we learn that Trump took $10 million from Egypt. Every accusation is an admission, down to the dollar amount.
- Trump claims he’s going to deport 20 million “illegals.” But data show there are only 11 undocumented residents in the country, the vast majority in a household led by someone with a full time job. It’ll kill the economy, and the other nine million will be citizens Trump just wants to get rid of.
- This damn well better be the next question for Trump: “What race are your running mate’s children?” And the one after that should be: “What did you do with the $10 mil from Egypt?” Journalists, do your damn job.
- Donald Trump says Kamala Harris isn’t smart enough to have a press conference. Donald Trump said that, the guy who thought he could change the trajectory of a hurricane with a Sharpie.
- Make one thing clear to any Republican who claims Trump “took a bullet for the country.” Trump was a victim of gun violence, not political violence. His shooter was motivated by making a name for himself through a violent act against a famous person. And because Republicans refuse to address the gun violence epidemic that got Trump winged, they have only themselves to blame.
- Apparently everyone in the Netherlands attended the Olympics. I haven’t seen that much orange since the last Trump rally.
- How long before Trump’s campaign leadership arranges for JD to “take a car ride with Kristi,” if ya know what I mean?
- You’ve reached another level of homeowner when you change your HVAC air filter without being prompted by an app or a spouse.
- The image of Trump at his press conference was one of an old, hard-of-hearing, vengeful conspiracy theorist. He was light on details but heavy on anger.
- Speed climbing, the fastest sport in the Olympics, is disturbing and fascinating. They look like cockroaches after the kitchen light is turned on.
- Jenna Ellis flipping quickly was predictable; she’s nothing but a smug patsy in the big plan. The Arizona fake elector’s plea, however, could lead to a lot of people in similar positions coming forward against the organizers.
- “All the King’s horses and all the King’s men…” Who the fuck thought horses would be helpful in reassembling an egg? How would having hooves be an advantage in this effort?
- A favorite “easy” meal in our house is spaghetti with homemade sauce that’s typically a tomato-based something with what ever vegetable and protein matter may be available. Onions? Great! Carrots? Sure. A pepper? I’ll take it. Cook to desired consistency, add sauce to pasta, top with cheese. Done. It’s not so much about the vege as it is about the herbs and spices. And like Col. Sanders, I’ll keep that a secret.
- I cannot wait for the debate. It’s gonna be delicious.
