#Texas could elect a #Democrat for #governor
It's close
She could also lose to #GregAbbott
If that fills you with dispirit so you resolve to not turn out... well, then you're part the problem
Voting alone will not fix this country
But doing all the other things, and not voting, that's just foolish
Even as just a matter to make the other struggles easier
" #GinaHinojosa could be Texas' first #Latina governor. Here's her story"

#ToddBlanche’s confirmation hearing to become the 88th attorney general of the United States began with #Senate #Judiciary Committee #ChuckGrassley, #Republican of Iowa, welcoming him & giving opening remarks, followed by the tanking #Democrat on the committee, #DickDurbin of Illinois.
Durbin’s remarks were worth hearing, the rest not so much. Grassley’s were prebuttal & defensive, Blanche’s were all lies.
Sadly Durbin is retiring. He’s very good, but he is advanced in his years.

Attempted #Drumpf & #RFKjr purge of #CDC workers initially fails due to clerical "coding" error.
“The employees who received incorrect notifications were never separated from the agency and have all been notified that they are not subject to the reduction in force,” said Andrew #Nixon, director of communications for the US Department of #Health and Human Services. More than half of Center for #Disease Control staffers gleefully fired Friday by #GOP administration have been reinstated.
“We figure they started this thing, so they should be #Democrat-oriented,” the President said, placing blame for his second #GovtShutdown firmlly on a minority #Democratic lawmakers. #DJT did not provide details on what qualified the affected dismissed workers as “Democrat-oriented.”
Once the "coding error " on the dismissal notifications is figured out by the admin's "Christian nationalist" headchopper #RussVought, it is almost certain thousands of federal workers will again be re-fired

“Bove has led the effort to weaponize the Department of Justice against the president’s enemies,”said Sen #DickDurbin, the top #Democrat on the cmte. “Having earned his stripes as a loyalist to this president, he’s been rewarded with this lifetime nomination.”
Bove’s hearing came a day after the filing of the #whistleblower complaint from a fmr #DOJ lawyer who was fired in April after conceding in court that #KilmarAbregoGarcia, a Maryland man who was mistakenly deported to an #ElSalvador prison -
#Durbin …has also forged close relationships w/some #Republicans, including Sen #ChuckGrassley of Iowa, who has been chairman of the #Judiciary Cmte in periods when Durbin was the top #Democrat.
The two pushed a #criminal #justice overhaul that overcame Republican resistance to be signed into #law by #Trump during his first term, leading to the early release of thousands of prisoners who had their sentences recalculated.

#DanaNessel also launched a bad-faith smear campaign against fellow #Democrat #RashidaTlaib in September 2024, just as absentee ballots were being sent out. She probably helped Trump win the state. I hope her career is over soon. #Michigan #Gaza #Palestine #USPol #MetroTimes #Democrats https://www.metrotimes.com/news/michigan-ag-nessel-booed-at-democratic-convention-over-charges-against-pro-palestinian-prostesters-38670132

After #BlackWomenForHarris & #WhiteWomenForHarris, it was the turn of “#WhiteDudesForHarris” — where almost 200k people, including the #JeffBridges, who played “#TheDude”, helped raise >$4M.
The >3hr-long Zoom call saw actors Mark Hamill, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Sean Astin & Josh Gad among the men expressing support for MVP #KamalaHarris’s presidential bid, alongside ’N Sync star Lance Bass & a host of #Democrat politicians.

“This investigation of Dr. #Fauci shows that he is an honorable #PublicServant, committed to #PublicHealth & he is not a comic book supervillain. He did not fund research to create the #Covid19 pandemic. He did not lie to #Congress about gain of function research in #Wuhan. And he did not organize a lab leak suppression campaign to cover his tracks. These are outrageous concoctions, fabrications & distortions,” #Democrat Rep #JamieRaskin said.

Just got out my #WA state #PrimaryBallot, specified my vote as #Democrat and voted for #Uncommitted delegates
I will *not* vote *for* #JoeBiden in any direct way whatsoever
I *will* vote *against* #DonaldTrump by whatever means are finally given to me

Handing a win to #Trump?
"When I was young, the left I was a part of helped elect #Nixon. Please don’t make a similar mistake today...
Richard Nixon won a narrow victory over both #Humphrey and George Wallace... [But] a shift of less than 88,000 #votes from the #Republican to the #Democrat in just four states (Missouri, New Jersey, Ohio, and Alaska) would have given Humphrey a majority in the Electoral College."

Basically every debate I have with a #Republican nowadays:
Republican: *makes outlandish, baseless claim*
Me: *explains how the claim is inaccurate using evidence*
Republican: *inserts whataboutism*
Me: *explains the whataboutism with more evidence*
Republican: *moves goalposts*
Me: *drills another ball of evidence through the uprights*
Republican: *ends conversation with a thought terminating cliche*#Democrat #Debate #Republican #Politics #Democracy #FallaciousReasoning #CriticalReasoning
