  5. #SCOTUS gives the green light for VA to purge 1600 voters from the rolls. Only Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson dissented. This is an ominous sign for how the 6 conservative Justices will rule on any other election case. They are partisans. The law does not matter to them.

  6. Another public figure is jumping off the Trump train: former talk-show host Geraldo Rivera, once well-known as a Trump ally and now backing Vice President Harris. @TheHill reports that Rivera posted his support for Harris on X, and told MSNBC's Ari Melber, "I wish I had bailed on the Trump train a lot sooner before he threatened the Constitution of the United States with its utter destruction." Rivera, who previously worked for Fox News, said on his social media post that he has not spoken to Trump since November 2020.

  7. #IMF warns #Global #PublicDebt to pass $100 Trillion by end of this year. #FiscalMonitor #Report urges govts to put through #TaxHikes and make drastic cuts to #PublicSpending and #BudgetCuts despite well publicized plans to do just the opposite.

    Both #USElection #PresidentialCandidates are committed to policies that will add trillions in #debt to a fragile US #economy while in #EU govt #bonds have experienced sell offs, and #UK seeks to "tweak the definition of public debt used for the UK’s #fiscal
    rules to allow for more #borrowing."

    Global debt will be almost 20% points of GDP higher next 3 years than previously projected: "Much more substantial fiscal adjustments are needed".

    Kamala is neither black nor Indian. She, like Obama, is mixed race. Does it matter even if she were either?

    🇺🇸 Law of Hypodescent/One-Drop rule, a tool of white supremacy, dating back to 1662, ascribed blackness to anyone with as little as 2% ancestry to deprive them of rights.
