In the post I just sent out, inviting you to this virtual film screening Tuesday, a typo in a line about the conference I’m attending changed the meaning by 180 degrees.
Dana Nessel and Gretchen Whitmer are both standard, shitty Dem careerists. Do you remember Michael Thompson, Ryan? The guy serving 40-60 for weed, after it was legal in Michigan? They came around and lobbied for him. Eventually. Eventually. Only when it was safe to. They'd been aware of the case for years, but let this man rot in prison, through Covid outbreaks, and then only when it was safe and opportunistic to, backed his release, and even THEN made him go through the humiliating and long process of a parole hearing and wait for months, while — I will never forget this — having to wash his clothes in a prison toilet.
I really hope the next gen of young Democrats (the squad etc) do better.
Weird how people aren't willing to vote for people who oppose their interests. Since I pray daily for the destruction of the leadership of both parties, I'm not sure who I want to lose more.
Be a lot of fun if we could have a vote of no confidence.
I just hope Jill/Butch have a good showing in Nov. Neither candidate within the duopoly should get holding the office of POTUS. We desperately need viable 3rd party options.
It is the American Arab Anti Discrimination Committee (ADC) not “Arab American”. The choice of wording and “miswording” is a reminder of how the US has devalued Palestinian lives for decades.

Ryan, thanks for your quick correction, which makes a huge difference to your report's meaning.
That makes more sense
The fear of the Israel Lobby’s retribution wins again.
