New poll shows VP Harris and Trump NECK AND NECK in crucial swing state
WisDems: A new Emerson College poll shows presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and would-be-dictator Trump tied at 47% in the absolutely-must-win swing state of Wisconsin. The road to the White House and a Senate majority runs through Wisconsin, and Wisconsin Democrats are building a state-wide get-out-the-vote grassroots organizing machine to knock on every door and visit every county for VP Harris. But they can't do it alone. Will you chip in to help the best state party in the country save our democracy from Trump and his radical Project 2025 cronies?
"Coach" Tim Walz delivers powerful "pep talk" to cap off electrifying night three of DNC
Minnesota Gov. and everyone's new favorite head coach Tim Walz formally accepted the Democratic nomination for vice president on Wednesday, delivering a moving speech that brought his family (and a whole lot of other folks) to tears as he proclaimed, "We're all here tonight for one beautiful, simple reason: We love this country!" Walz was met with raucous cheers and chants of “Coach! Coach! Coach!” as he declared, "Never underestimate a public school teacher." He continued, “It’s the fourth quarter, we're down a field goal, but we're on offense and we have the ball, we're driving down the field and boy do we have the right team!"

Kennedy campaign teetering as Trump allies lobby for desperate endorsement
White-nationalist fanboys Donald Trump Jr. and Tucker Carlson, thoroughly rattled by Kamala Harris' meteoric rise in the polls and desperate to change the narrative, are not-so-quietly urging Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his brain worm to end their futile presidential bid and endorse the MAGA cult leader. Kennedy is set to speak Friday "about the present historical moment and his path forward," his shambolic campaign announced Wednesday, fueling growing speculation that he could drop out and imminently throw his support behind the disgraced ex-president. For anyone out there still taking the anti-vaxx roadkill collector halfway seriously, let this be your moment of clarity. The man does not care about preserving American democracy. He is nothing more than a MAGA tool, a useful idiot, a charlatan trading on his family's storied legacy to advance a singular agenda: his own self-interest. Enough already.

Florida quietly removes LGBTQ+ travel info from state website
Gov. Ron DeSantis and his right-wing goons in Florida are trying a quieter approach to vanishing the LGBTQ+ community from the Sunshine State, since previous efforts jackhammering their hate-fueled agenda down Floridians' throats didn't win them any points in public opinion polls. But make no mistake, the end result is still the same: erasing the queer community altogether and marginalizing anyone who dares to think or live differently.

Texas to reconsider case of Black woman sentenced to five years for trying to vote
Texas’ highest criminal court announced on Wednesday it would again consider the case of Crystal Mason, a Texas woman who was sentenced to FIVE YEARS in prison for trying to cast a provisional ballot in the 2016 presidential election when she was ineligible to vote. Many voting rights groups see the prosecution of Mason, who is Black, as a clear example of voter intimidation, and have pointed to other white defendants who have received lesser punishment for knowingly committing election crimes. Mason has always maintained she did not know she was ineligible. “While I am ready for this case to be over and for my acquittal to stand, I will continue to maintain my faith that justice will be done,” Mason said in a statement.
Oprah tells voters to "choose truth" in surprise convention speech

"Uncommitted" delegates hold sit-in outside of United Center after DNC refuses to allow a Palestinian to speak at the convention
Abbas Alawieh, an uncommitted delegate from Michigan, was emotional as he relayed the news outside the United Center, where the convention concludes on Thursday. "We were hopeful because Vice President Harris' team was engaging with us," Mr. Alawieh told reporters. "We just want to be heard." Mr Alawieh said it was "unacceptable" that their request for a speaking slot was turned down. "We're not going anywhere before November," he said. "You're not going to get rid of us. We're going to engage the system." The "uncommitted" movement was formed to pressure Democratic leadership into cutting off American material support for Israel's murderous war in Gaza, which has killed 41,000 people and seen numerous war crimes and atrocities committed by the US-backed IDF. These include the gang-rape of Palestinian prisoners and children being sniped in the head.
Revealed: JD Vance promoted far-right views in speech about extremists’ book
In a December 2023 speech, JD Vance defended a notorious white nationalist convicted over 2016 election disinformation; canvassed the possibility of breaking up tech companies; attacked diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts; and talked about a social media “censorship regime” that "came from the deep state on some level." In the book, "Up from Conservatism," the authors advocate for the repeal of the Civil Rights Act, for politicians to conduct “deep investigations into what the gay lifestyle actually does to people," that college and childcare be defunded, and that right-wing governments “promote male-dominated industries” in order to discourage female participation in the workplace. Real normal, definitely not weird stuff!
