CLEVELAND, OH - JULY 21: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump delivers a speech during the evening session on the fourth day of the Republican National Convention on July 21, 2016 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump received the number of votes needed to secure the party's nomination. An estimated 50,000 people are expected in Cleveland, including hundreds of protesters and members of the media. The four-day Republican National Convention kicked off on July 18.

I finally understand HOW Trump will deliver on the promises of law and order. If he doesn’t intend to go after the guns, he has to go after the ability to move around and coordinate.

Take him at his word that everything he doesn’t like stops quickly the day after he’s president, and that there are a lot more jobs. It’s just that the jobs are now as jailers. And we are the civilian population. Ready?

Trump will declare martial law as soon as he is elected president. That’s how he plans to implement the things he claims.

I decided a few years ago that fighting hate groups was the best leverage my donations could achieve, so when I have money it now goes to the SPLC. I just got this mass mailing from Morris Dees promoting a new book. Here’s their link from the email through Amazon: The Lynching.

Or Order from B&N

At the time of the historic case, the United Klans was America's most notorious hate group, with chapters in 31 states. Its members bombed Birmingham's 16th Street Baptist Church, killing four little girls, and committed many other acts of terrorism.

Using a novel legal strategy, the Center won a crushing $7 million verdict from an all-white Alabama jury in 1987. The New York Times called it "monumental," noting that it was the first case of its kind.

They have been living BLM longer than many of us have been alive.

Quoting Klein:

[A]nother way to look at the primary is that Clinton employed a less masculine strategy to win. She won the Democratic primary by spending years slowly, assiduously, building relationships with the entire Democratic Party. She relied on a more traditionally female approach to leadership: creating coalitions, finding common ground, and winning over allies. Today, 523 governors of members of Congress have endorsed Clinton; 13 have endorsed Sanders.

Back to Digby:

Walking around in the world as a member of half the population with only 20% of the representation in government and 5% in the top jobs in business and a thousand other statistics that prove just how unequal you are in your own society feels ... strange. Indeed, it's mind-boggling. So it means something to a lot of women that a democratic process can produce a woman president. It's bigger than just getting a job. It's getting a job by a vote of a majority of the people --- that's the kind of validation that has teeth.

I can’t add to the greatness that is Digby:

a-different-kind-of-politics

How can someone who is supposedly so bad at all the things we think politicians have to be good at be winning like that?

Donald Trump is Mr. Potter with a wig and makeup. Kind of in drag.

Just stop writing about her in any way.

Banish Clinton

Shun Clinton

Just don’t write anything about her for a few months

She isn’t worth your time

Or comments

Don’t rent her space in your minds

I release, and I let go, of any attention paid to Hillary Clinton

But nature abhors a vacuum, so…..

Fill your minds and your keyboards with positive thoughts about Bernie Sanders.

Any word or thought about Hillary is a hill you will let yourself roll off of

Bernie needs you to concentrate

Be happy

There is always something more out there about Bernie you could find, think about, or share

No fan of Clinton needs to hear from you. You will not fix them

What you resist, persists

I’d like to understand what Sen. Sander’s supporters think President Obama should have ordered Sect of State Clinton to do over the coup in Honduras?

I’ve only read Wikipedia on it, but apparently we have people with much deeper background, and I’d like to know what the President should have ordered his secretary of state to do?

One way to think about the Sra. Huerta incident + POLL + DRAMA + LIES + CORRUPTION!

I used to volunteer teaching ESL in Chicago, and lately Orange County CA. Too often, I’d have to turn ladies away because not only didn’t they know English, they didn’t know how to read Spanish. They had been working since they were 8, somehow came here (GOD, is that brave), and never stopped working. I was barely equipped to help learn English with the help of texts, and not able to teach literacy. I am sure there are better teachers than I, who could have created a compelling verbal approach.

I want the US to become a better place.

I want Hispanic middle aged women who possibly never finished grade school, who work in the laundry and are trying to participate in a Democratic primary, to be able to be sure they understand what is going on. So, that’s feeding a lot of how I think about the Huerta incident.

That consideration should be weighed as non-negotiable.

If the republicans don’t let Obama pick a liberal justice, they are taking a risk: President Sanders or President Clinton will put President Obama there.

That should get them moving.

If they oppose the individual mandate...

While Republicans have a simple message, we are all over the place. The latest round has them asking for freedom to choose ACA or not. The are trying to kill the individual mandate. Ask them

Do you think people should be able to drive without insurance?

and as a followup,

How do you plan not to have any serious medical conditions for a year?

What do we do with someone who doesn't have insurance? Make them buy it, treat them for free in emergency rooms, or leave them on the street to die?

This is the new "wear your seatbelt" ad the UK is doing - started by some guy not hired to do it, but because the cause is important to him, he came up with this idea, and now it's being hailed across the world as a "beautiful" commercial.
And now the video has become so popular with the general public that people are forwarding it to friends/family on their own so quickly that it has spread all over the world in a very short time.
Check out this remarkable ad
