Thanks. A handy verse to throw in the face of those who claim to be Christians.

These third party types always claim that they want to reform the system. That's bullshit. If you want to reform this system then you need to start at the bottom. You need to recruit candidates and invest in winning at local and state level first. Those are the most winnable offices for an outsider/independent. Hell, win a few critical states and you can get enough states in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which, while not an ideal solution, would be a good first step in reforming the system.

Once you have some power and recognition at the state level, you need to aim for Congress. Start winning seats in the House and Senate and you can really start making change. That is where the real power of change resides. How many times have we seen a president with a divided House and/or Senate have their policy goals effectively neutered by legislative antagonism? Without support from the House and Senate, a 3rd party president would be powerless.

Stein cannot possibly enact positive change even if there were a literal miracle and she became president. The only thing, literally the only thing she can do by running for President is get Trump elected.

If this was staged, I think it was staged to trigger Trump's cultists to try and take out Harris. They want them all to react just like "Leon" did.

That may be the statement they want to make, but the statement they are making is: Condemn Israel or we will let the fascists install a virulently anti-Muslim dictator who will actively help Israel wipe out Palestine.

Shooter (if he ever actually got a shot off) is an American who has tried to recruit other to fight in Ukraine against Russia. Curiously, he is also a former Trump voter.

His X account, which has now been suspended, included a number of posts about Trump. "@realDonaldTrump While you were my choice in 2106, I and the world hoped that president Trump would be different and better than the candidate, but we all were greatly disappointment and it seems you are getting worse and devolving," he wrote in one post in June 2020. "I will be glad when you gone."

They are not rejecting the system. To do that they would need to leave and go somewhere else. What they, and you, are doing is refusing to participate in the system as it currently functions and by doing so allowing the system to put a fascist in charge, a fascist that will happily wipe them out.

Someone should explain to those Muslims in Wisconsin that Stein literally cannot win their state. She has no electors. State law requires that a candidates electors be nominated by state office holders. The greens have no state office holders so they cannot nominate any electors. Even if Stein were to somehow win the state, she can't get the electoral votes for Wisconsin. All she can do is again steal enough votes from Harris to give the election to Trump.

Trump started it. Back in 2020 there was a coronavirus stimulus package going through the legislature. The Democrats tried to include some amendments that would make it easier for people to vote during the stimulus. Basic stuff like easier mail in voting and extended voting days. Trump's reaction on Fox News showed that they clearly understand that more voting is bad for Republicans.

“The things they had in there were crazy. They had things, levels of voting that if you’d ever agreed to it, you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again”

That she is still, at her core, a republican piece of shit

Seconded. I like to remind people that while in office, she voted with Trump over 92% of the time.

Name five cops who don't.

You know who (apparently) didn't get sued? The person who made the video and initially tweeted it. Because they probably took down their tweet when they got the cease and desist letter. Trump & Co. retweeted it commercially and refused to pay for it. They then got sued because they refused to take it down after getting the letter.

If you find yourself as the recipient of a cease and desist letter because you used someone else's creative work for your own profit, just don't be an ass and take it down. Then you won't get sued.

“It is amazing to hear you talk about women of color as parroting talking points instead of us looking at basic math,” Rye said. “The one thing AOC has done that you haven’t is win some elections.”

Solid point. Also, the fact that a candidate for the Presidency doesn't even know how many members there are in the House of Representatives shows just how little attention she pays to the basic mechanics of our government.
