Question: I feel like Dems need to take both houses and President in November then pass reforms of Supreme Court and Make constitutional Presidents cannot and never will be immune under the laws of the United States - do you agree?
Reading parts of the SCOTUS Immunity declaration...the examples are the most frightening part - they specifically sanction clearly illegal activities that ACTUALLY happened.
Our vote is ALL we have left. We can't let this be close!
Forget about the debate performances, which have zero to do with being president. Look at their relative performance as president:
Trump was unhinged and unproductive. He appointed nutcases, crooks, and fools to the top positions of government. Many of them have gone to prison. Most of them have said he shouldn’t be president again.
Biden’s presidency continues to hum along doing great stuff. His appointees are competent and honest. He may be slowing down personally but there is no evidence his administration is doing so.
Now more than ever, our democracy is at stake. We can’t let Trump win the White House and Republicans take control of Congress. VOTE! and wear this "VOTE removes stubborn orange stains" t-shirt everyday until the election day 👇
Since 2020, My Democratic Party has acted like everything is business as usual. NOT! Time to get serious. Beat Trump at his own game! Figure it out! Yes, we the public, will vote blue! What are YOU doing to keep democracy being taken over by maniacs? Our court system has failed us- Trump has too much money.
No-it should never be team sports-Red team vs Blue. It should be always vote for the BEST candidate (or "Be Best," as tRump's grab a bride once said). Genuine & good-RFK jr:
Democrats, Bide in particular, have worked within the system for so long that there will be a slow reaction time. Unlikely any bulls will be grabbed by their horns any time soon.
Look at Pelosi's slow reaction time to impeachment, look at DOJ Garland's slow reaction time and what it has cost us Americans. We lost 1million+ American Citizens to Malfeasant Putin Fascist Donald Administration & Americans allow MSM to call Fascist Kleptocracy Donald Crimes Spree scandals????? WTH Republican Deregulation Legislation has been killing American Citizens for over a generation!!!! Elitism is as much a form of bigotry as Fascism. Politics isn't some draw in your dresser of dank room you occasionally enter its the damn dresser, it's the whole house!!!! Whole Country has been moving ever right & we're at the edge of the cliff now. Now its not just Native Americans, blacks, latinos or displaced colonist of color.
That has been progressing as more money from every direction buys influence and writes policy. The DNC has written beneficial legislation even if the process is like herding cats. And yet the other side of the aisle goose-steps to the Fox News cycle. Even when they get lied to, no wait especially when they are lied to,-THAT is when the audience likes it best. Honestly, with these influences and threats I am surprised we lasted this long.
Voting blue for a man who can't fight the power won't do it. Vote Independent for RFK jr. Read, watch his vids. Look beyond MSM, as the defamaton & censorship with him has been cray.
Yes, tRump has been getting heaps of money from the Saudis. The Dem party needs to get behind RFK jr. He has been defamed & censored by MSM. He is not a conspiracy nut & he is the ONLY choice for all to unite behind.
Agree. There is a criminal power grab in process, NOW. It has less in recognition from past elections ever. But the threat to the country from this "hamburger helper" SCOTUS and a malignant narcissist like Trump and his cabal would change the country beyond recognition. No SsA, no Medicare or FDA? Really? Yes, per the recent rulings and a man with out a conscious.
Exactly. The Dems play fair & kind. While DJT fights as he's been taught (by his old friend, Mobster McCarthy lawyer, Roy Cohn). He has been bolstering favors & BILLION$$$ from the Saudis.
You got his #!!!! Even Roy Cohn found out how Dirtbag Donnie treats his " friends " in the end, when he was broke and on his deathbed, he sold is diamond studs or perhaps cuff links that Trump had made a big show about giving to him. Surprise! They were paste and of course, Trump had moved on...no calls, no letters, ( for sure no $$). Roy? Roy, who? The sociopath that broke Roy Cohn's heart!
Boy, I sure the saying what goes around, cones around, because this guy REALLY has it coming!
That tRump had BFF mentor & friends like Roy Cohn & Epstein, the DEMS should be screaming from the rooftops! Along with 2025 here a short add from The Lincoln Project: https://youtu.be/WFUtB-h0MSM?feature=shared
Why are Republicans always more effective w/messaging than Dems? The above GOP urging GOP against tRump is case in point.
The problem is, Dems need a viable candidate. And sadly, Biden is no longer the guy.
Biden needs to pass the reigns along. The candidate all the Dems should be looking at is RFK jr. He is said now to have 390 electoral votes. He is fighting tooth & nail as red team, blue team are trying to keep him off the ballot.
Time to get behind a winning horse. And a genuinely good man, Robert F Kennedy jr:
Do something different?so, some say put the VP in, but isn't that just covering the presidency now?
Why is it that Trump, the "great businessman" and major fraudster so popular? At least at the polls?
So, if GOP donor class wants Project 2025 ( at any price) than we can't have a reasonable old statesman with a young and able VP? Is it because the same business interests look at China and say why do we need something messy like democracy when obviously we can enterprises without it?
The middle of the road that could make the difference don't seem to know the difference. Unless, they are scared like the last 18 months of Trump's administration ( or really any GOP in history-see the last recession.
Do you REALLY think there is time for a new DNC candidate?
Be sure to alternate wearing that tee shirt with your Biden-Harris tee shirt purchased from President Biden’s reelection campaign. Your purchase will fund the campaign, and you will be a walking billboard for our President.
Don't forget, electing Donald by ballot is likely to be a formality that is easily overturned by another coup and the Supreme Court is saying it is okay.
DJT will pardon all h those in prison he feels we're loyal to him & go after everyone who wasn't. DJT has $$$ & Saudi & other help now. He knows how to fight dirty.
Biden now has unlimited power he should use it now if he cares about us staying on as democracy. The SCOTUS assume that Biden wouldn’t do anything since he has a conscience.
Except, President Biden is 1) a decent man, 2) a loyal American 3) a person who when he gives his oath to uphold the Constitution MEANS EVERY WORD, Unlike the 6 injustices the maggot in chief and all the little maggots eating away at our democratically based representative republic.
If President Biden were to behave like trump, those 6 magats would soon find a way to declare that immunity ONLY covers persons dedicated to Project 2025.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder...........DJT is a text book case. These people do NOT play by any rules. Having had to escape the total hell of living with them, you need to know that he is laughing at President Biden for being nice. When Orange talks about Hannable L..........that is Narc talk..........he needs attention and adoration like it is crack cocaine or whatever his next meal may be.
I agree that President Biden should use some form of these powers to dispatch the NARC ASAP!!!! Throw it right back into his face........send a message to the traitors in the Supreme Court.
Narcs do not value any other life form other then themselves!!! This should be crystal clear to all by now.
Yep... but I understand he was totally taken aback, as we all were and WE ALL SHOULD HAVE KNOWN TRUMP ONLY KNOWS HOW TO REPEAT HIS LIES OVER AND OVER.... we need to Pray at the same time every day... it'll make a difference.
The Federalist Society. All three tRump appointed to SCOTUS were names on the list given him by the Federalist Society. Leonard Leo, Harlan Crow, Koch Foundation and the rest of those far right wing radical billionaires are behind all this.
The Koch Brothers were deep into the old John Birch Society for years. Need we say more? I'm certain this all has been in the works for decades.
All true. Koch brothers & their father saw how Russia was doing things in the 30s and got the Birchy ideas about doing the same here.going as one of them ran for office and we're rejected as " nut cases along with the John Birch types. But they had patience and money... so now we see how that turned out.
I agree, that Biden is old- school honorable, and honest, " My Word is My Bond", and an intelligent gentleman.
What is needed is the " Other, Inner, Ruthless" personality, [ kept hidden as a protective device]; Astrologists and Fellow Scorpios know what I'm eluding to.
USE SOME OF THAT GIFT, THE SCOTUS 6 HAVE GIVEN TO TFG, USE IT IN A TRUER, KINDER, GENTLER, MANNER; LET IT LOOSE, SIR, BELIEVE THIS; WE GOT YO' BACK, FRONT, AND SIDES, KAMALA IS COVERED, TOO.
We all need to PRAY at the same time EVERY DAY.. can you imagine the positive energy towards getting rid of the Evilness of Trump? But a POSITIVE Prayer....
I agree. Perhaps he should be focusing on his presidential powers WHILE HE HAS THEM, and do whatever he can to create a positive impression on the public. He's running around campaigning everywhere, likely wearing himself out and making last ditch attempts to fund raise. In my opinion, his time and focus would be far better spent making a big splash on the psyche of Americans, leaving them/us to think, "Wow, I didn't know he had it in him to do that!! Impressive!"
Yes go on all night shows especially the ones that the younger population views- show his humor and wit after he reminds them what life will be under a TRUMP presidency= All women need to vote Blue and the men that love them Must vote to protect women's health rights
He needs to delegate most of that "running around" to the YOUNG-UN'S and KAMALA; FOCUS more on the Talk shows, Cable News Shows, YOUTUBE SHOWS ; even the maga nuse circuses, and Podcasts TO PUT FORTH HIS PLANS FOR HIS SECOND TERM.
ALL THAT FLYING AROUND AND RUNNING FROM HERE TO THERE IS WHAT DEPLETED HIS BODY, LEADING UP TO THE MISH MASH ON 6/27.
No criminal acts needed to declare an emergency expansion of the Supreme Court - or replacement of judges who said they would accept settled precedent and those who accepted exorbitant gifts only to rule in the opposite.
If President Biden leaves this Supreme Court in place without putting his stamp on it, then all future rulings will continue to destroy and dismantle democracy, including rulings on the legitimacy of elections.
Hi LINDA, I think Biden should put together a coalition, including Harris, Fuguzlli, Pelosi, Psaki, Liz, Clyburn, Military Generals, Intelligence, Federal Judges, Historians, etc.
Have them go line by line through Project 2025, do the opposite, and then use his official presidential duties to enact the changes.
Disband the Scotus 6 from the Court, increase the number of judges by 4 or 5, have the judges committee evaluate all of tfg's appointees for experience/ competence, and clear the benches of all not suitable for their positions.
Use the power of SCOTUS's decision while he can; get rid of that" corporations are people" BS, there are a lot of corrective actions he can LEGALLY TAKE NOW, BUT HE HAS GOT TO USE HIS AIDS TO HELP GET IT DONE; DON' T MICROMANAGE, JUST BE A MACROMANAGER.
From your fingers tips to Biden’s eyes. Expansion of the SCOTUS wouldn’t be a crime. I also believe those liars and bribe takers shouldn’t be allowed to continue on WE THE PEOPLE’S SC! If Biden does nothing and loses in November Game Over.
Yes. Though its going to take a filibuster proof majority in the Senate which is unlikely
In any case, there's potentially three SCOTUS justice could be replaced in the next four years - Alito and Thomas are 75; Soto-Mayor turned 70 last week. If Biden wins but Dems lose the Senate, it's possible no SCOTUS noms will get a hearing.
We're in the mess we're in because not enough Dems voted in previous elections.
YES ADD MORE MEMBERS TO THE SUPREME COURT HAVE the SAME NO MONEY and gift rules all other judges adhere to IMPEACH the SCOTUS judges that are anti constitution IE Remove all those words the Supreme court added giving TRUMP and Presidents full immunity It is not in the constitution The President is NOT a KING
citizens united needs legislative correction ASAP. it’s one of the worst decision the SCoUSA ever made in terms of political consequences. democracy was sold to the highest bidder in that day. and the highest bidder wasn’t Justice, it was corporate and elite monopoly powers. not convinced Democrats want to get money out of congress and Whitehouse now they’re so used to it.
We can't wait & hope for Nov. DJT has been giving & getting favors, BILLION$ from the Saudis. He has the highest court in the land now at his beck & call. Being a kind Dem now & hoping for Nov, won't do it.
What DO we do now? What can a retired old person do to make some difference? I know voting, but there has to be more. What is the most effective response?
You can contact your local Democratic group and ask for postcards and a mailing list. Postcards reminding people to vote close to the election have been shown to increase turnout by around 25%.
Marjorie, if you’re physically capable of writing, you could order postcards and postcard stamps from bluewavepostcards.org that encourage potential voters to register and vote in swing states. For $65 you can order 100 postcards and stamps and you’ll receive 100 self-stick pre-addressed labels. It doesn’t take too long to stamp and address each card and write a short message (included in the instructions). I think there’s a 15% discount for your first order. I found it very easy to do.
I’m doing postcards through turnoutpac.org. They send you the postcards, the lists and a tested script . (They do a lot of message testing and have real data results that they work.) You pay for stamps. My batch of 200 is due to go out on 10/11. Mobilize.us has other volunteer opportunities - many you can do from home.
Call your precinct chair and volunteer to block walk or drive for the block walk. Join local democrats party and write postcards. Register kids to vote.
Everyone should petition Biden to add four seats to the Supreme Court under his new powers. It’s not packing the court. It’s balancing it and if TFG gets in the question he would do the same.
I am very worried that something similar to January 6 could happen on Election Day but even worse, Trump will try to hold on to power or force some kind of coup and will try to take power by force. I have nightmares of a new Civil War. I am from Puerto Rico and Trump treated us very badly when hurricane Maria devastated our island. How can a country like the United States allow a convicted felon to run and become president for a second disastrous term?
same here! I'm losing sleep thinking about all the ways they have disenfranchised voters, appointed sec. of state to overturn results if not to their liking. I still remember that video of him tossing paper towels to people... what a disaster of a human.
Try not to lose sleep, Mindi we all need to take care of ourselves so that we have the energy to go the distance. That means cutting ties with anyone who is robbing you of energy right now and filling your life with as much positivity as you can. We can do this if we stick together and refuse to be distracted!
It could happen either way but we cant be scared we fight like ukraine lke civil are that went before us we fight for the future of the young. Someone think of a march, a song like we are the world! I looked at flag 4 th july today and said trump just wants to tear this flag down
Trump was horrible to Puerto Rico! As another American, I was totally disgusted. Our Constitution was written too long ago— simple. No understanding of the complications of technology and multiple shot weapons. And, no imagination, that crooks would run for office, and actually get elected.
The Judge is researching this appeal, and needs to sort out DJT's "Official Presidential assertions in this case. Except, NYC case was not a Federal case, but a State RICO case meaning not all evidence in this appeal will apply for DJTs appeal. He still may be remanded to jail anyway. 🤞🤞
Why shouldn’t Biden announce that he is a dictator on day 1260 and hereby decrees that Trump incited an insurrection that was not an official act of the Presidency and will therefore be held in his Trump Tower apartment for the remainder of his life?
Mostly because Joe is a man of character, and refuses to do anything that was illegal before the ruling. Tell people to google Project 2025. Most who read it, or portions of it, are appalled.
My thought is that Biden’s speech yesterday would have been far more effective if he began it with a false and outrageous edict such as what I wrote above, and then said that he announced that to prove a point-that we cannot have a democracy where one person is above the law.
yes do that I wrote something similar about 5 days ago Please all write the president@thewhitehouse.gov but check this link first i might have not put it correctly now so search how to email the President. I begged him to keep up his fight to win He has so much wisdom -Only he can beat TRUMP
WE are we the people. Regardless of what the Democratic party decides to do, WE "... fight the fight we're in." (quoting a Politico citation) The political class will define their strategies and fight the fight at their level. Whatever the pols do, we the people don't have a vote in that decision, so we have one job: register Dem voters and get them to the pols, fund Dem party efforts in swing states and candidates everywhere because every congressional seat matters more than ever. I accept that my opinion doesn't matter at every level, only at the "my own action" level. That focuses my thinking and actions.
ELOQUENTLY STATED, TRUDE ! YOUR OPINION AND YOUR HEART FELT.WORDS WILL BE JOINED WITH MANY OTHERS TO CREATE A DIN THAT CANNOT.BE IGNORED!. WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED!
I lived through the 1960s as a teenager. I was a young adult in the early 70s. America was divided then, but I have never been through such a scism of insanity as has happened since 2016. The criminally insane are beating their drums loudly but the American people have had enough and want to do something about it.
I was Class of 1969. I went half a day to high school and half to the University of California at Berkeley. In February 1970 antiwar demonstrators burnt down the ROTC building on the UC Berkeley campus so Reagan and Nixon closed it down. June 1, 1970 I put my belongings in a 1963 Buick Wildcat and moved by myself to Arkansas.
Oh wow I was in Berkeley from 1974 through 1980 with a few brakes in there when I would go back-and-forth between there where my sister was and Cocoa Beach where my mother was. And I ran into someone from Berkeley from back then today at the grocery outlet here where I live now in Lakeport, California, I was born in Virginia and grew up summers in a place like a lot of the rural parts of northern California look until it gets dry. Well nice to meet you Darrell.
Here's another 90 year old with visions of what Hitler, Mussolini, and fascism meant to.millions of.people.the world over...please put your arms around.your dear Mother and assure her that she is not alone!. Realize, one and all, that we have a real.up.hill fight on.our hands. This is the time we pull.up our knickers....do any and everything. we possibly can.do to seen that history....vile,.unthinkable history is not repeated! Keep trump and his ilk from destroying our beloved country!.Return Joe Biden.to the White House to finish the job he's started. VOTE BLUE !🤗
Caroline, doing stuff to help really helps. Postcards to voters, writing letters to the editor of your local paper, etc. You can make a choice not to be helpless. Do one thing every day. We have 119 days to act! When you take even a small a tion, you are taking back control and you feel like you are in the fight not just waiting for it to happen to you. MoveOn.org has a lot of projects going. You can do one thing. Or take one zoom workshop. There are other groups, too.
Is that 8pm EST? I’m in Minneapolis so always assume CST and miss things!
Question: Why was there no mention of any trouble with Biden until the debate and now everyone including most guests on MSNBC are calling for him to withdraw from the campaign and also, what do you think of MARIANNE Wiliamson who campaigned for 1.5 years and didn’t get one single delegate and now is ‘throwing her hat in the ring’ AGAIN for an open convention in August. Note: she’s 71 years old. Zero delegates and zero mention of Kamala Harris. If BIDEN decides to end it - and I don’t think he should- HOW is this country completely ignoring the VP, second in command? It’s an insult to women, to black women, to everyone who voted for their ticket in the primary.
I’m furious with the NYT - they threw him under the bus in 2020 and said he had no chance and should drop out. Biden cares not what the elitist and egomaniacal precious NYT has to say. And neither do I. I wrote a letter to the editor after their Opinion Piece. NYT never supported Biden. And never admitted after saying he should drop out in 2020; that not only did he win, beat Trump, but that he has had a remarkable first term.
I'm disgusted with the NYT; I don't know whether its Biden smear job is because of the chief editor's pique or because they're ass-kissing Trump because they don't want him to shut down "The Failing New York Times" if he becomes president again. I cancelled my 8+ years-long subscription Saturday after reading months worth of complaints about Biden's age and then the dumptruck full of opinions saying Biden should step down after one bad debate. The disgraceful SCOTUS opinions on both Chevron and presidential immunity got fewer and much smaller headlines NYT than did the debate performance. The NYT seems tainted to me now.
Why? Because it’s corporate me media and every single one of those stations and the major newspapers are owned or the CEO is a Republican donor. we do not have a free media; they are bought.
Question: Is there any chance that Biden will use this SCOTUS ruling for anything that could give him an advantage to help weaken Trump and his MAGA movement? Also, somebody on another Substack site said today that it's already too late, Trump will win and we're going to be under a Putin and Orban like dictatorship since elections won't matter. I'm not buying this crap and still believe we can do this. Thank you for everything you do Mary.
You Go Girl ! I'm so very proud of you and all the hard work you do, literally,Day and Night. Don't know where you find the energy, Mary?! Good luck with your video chat this evening and Always ! and remember how very important you are to all of us and the country. Blessings 💕😘👍

It is not the party that can do it. It is the people. This is not a party issue.
This is for the existence of The United States of America. If a fascist is elected, the country we know will cease to exist.

Be sure to alternate wearing that tee shirt with your Biden-Harris tee shirt purchased from President Biden’s reelection campaign. Your purchase will fund the campaign, and you will be a walking billboard for our President.
Buying t-shirts & electing a man who is clearly too old is witless. I like Joe, but it's time for something different.
I absolutely agree JP
Don't forget, electing Donald by ballot is likely to be a formality that is easily overturned by another coup and the Supreme Court is saying it is okay.
Our vote needs to count! This was put out about a month ago, but he's polling high! And if you truly listen to him, he is the ONLY choice.

Yes....Just a few words and walked right off the stage.......see ya

SCOTUS is nothing more than the Enquirer Catch and Kill tool for him.

What is needed is the " Other, Inner, Ruthless" personality, [ kept hidden as a protective device]; Astrologists and Fellow Scorpios know what I'm eluding to.
USE SOME OF THAT GIFT, THE SCOTUS 6 HAVE GIVEN TO TFG, USE IT IN A TRUER, KINDER, GENTLER, MANNER; LET IT LOOSE, SIR, BELIEVE THIS; WE GOT YO' BACK, FRONT, AND SIDES, KAMALA IS COVERED, TOO.
BE BOLD!!!!!
We all need to PRAY at the same time EVERY DAY.. can you imagine the positive energy towards getting rid of the Evilness of Trump? But a POSITIVE Prayer....
Bingo!
I agree. Perhaps he should be focusing on his presidential powers WHILE HE HAS THEM, and do whatever he can to create a positive impression on the public. He's running around campaigning everywhere, likely wearing himself out and making last ditch attempts to fund raise. In my opinion, his time and focus would be far better spent making a big splash on the psyche of Americans, leaving them/us to think, "Wow, I didn't know he had it in him to do that!! Impressive!"
Yes go on all night shows especially the ones that the younger population views- show his humor and wit after he reminds them what life will be under a TRUMP presidency= All women need to vote Blue and the men that love them Must vote to protect women's health rights
He needs to delegate most of that "running around" to the YOUNG-UN'S and KAMALA; FOCUS more on the Talk shows, Cable News Shows, YOUTUBE SHOWS ; even the maga nuse circuses, and Podcasts TO PUT FORTH HIS PLANS FOR HIS SECOND TERM.
ALL THAT FLYING AROUND AND RUNNING FROM HERE TO THERE IS WHAT DEPLETED HIS BODY, LEADING UP TO THE MISH MASH ON 6/27.
YES HE NEEDS TO DO THIS NOW
YES he needs to do this YES
Biden has unlimited power - to commit crime with absolute immunity from prosecution.
Everything else is still subject to SCOTUS ruling, just as it's always been.
No criminal acts needed to declare an emergency expansion of the Supreme Court - or replacement of judges who said they would accept settled precedent and those who accepted exorbitant gifts only to rule in the opposite.
If President Biden leaves this Supreme Court in place without putting his stamp on it, then all future rulings will continue to destroy and dismantle democracy, including rulings on the legitimacy of elections.
Hi LINDA, I think Biden should put together a coalition, including Harris, Fuguzlli, Pelosi, Psaki, Liz, Clyburn, Military Generals, Intelligence, Federal Judges, Historians, etc.
Have them go line by line through Project 2025, do the opposite, and then use his official presidential duties to enact the changes.
Disband the Scotus 6 from the Court, increase the number of judges by 4 or 5, have the judges committee evaluate all of tfg's appointees for experience/ competence, and clear the benches of all not suitable for their positions.
Use the power of SCOTUS's decision while he can; get rid of that" corporations are people" BS, there are a lot of corrective actions he can LEGALLY TAKE NOW, BUT HE HAS GOT TO USE HIS AIDS TO HELP GET IT DONE; DON' T MICROMANAGE, JUST BE A MACROMANAGER.
I could not agree with your plan more! Very sound approach.
From your fingers tips to Biden’s eyes. Expansion of the SCOTUS wouldn’t be a crime. I also believe those liars and bribe takers shouldn’t be allowed to continue on WE THE PEOPLE’S SC! If Biden does nothing and loses in November Game Over.
David … he does not
Not so. It will be unlimited for the guy with 34 felony convictions (that are about to be overturned … you just watch) but very limited for Biden
...and scotus assumes right. There must be wisdom about this situation from a sage but it s not coming to me
Agree totally. We need a plan. I’m sticking with Biden and hang the rest of them.
Yes. Though its going to take a filibuster proof majority in the Senate which is unlikely
In any case, there's potentially three SCOTUS justice could be replaced in the next four years - Alito and Thomas are 75; Soto-Mayor turned 70 last week. If Biden wins but Dems lose the Senate, it's possible no SCOTUS noms will get a hearing.
We're in the mess we're in because not enough Dems voted in previous elections.
Would love to and NOT on Tick Tock.
YES ADD MORE MEMBERS TO THE SUPREME COURT HAVE the SAME NO MONEY and gift rules all other judges adhere to IMPEACH the SCOTUS judges that are anti constitution IE Remove all those words the Supreme court added giving TRUMP and Presidents full immunity It is not in the constitution The President is NOT a KING
citizens united needs legislative correction ASAP. it’s one of the worst decision the SCoUSA ever made in terms of political consequences. democracy was sold to the highest bidder in that day. and the highest bidder wasn’t Justice, it was corporate and elite monopoly powers. not convinced Democrats want to get money out of congress and Whitehouse now they’re so used to it.
Agree Deanna!!
I'll second that motion
That isn't going to happen.
That would be perfect and beat MAGA back so badly so they're no longer relevant.
And term limits for Supreme Court.
Wouldn’t it be lovely to have democrats win a super majority!
We can't wait & hope for Nov. DJT has been giving & getting favors, BILLION$ from the Saudis. He has the highest court in the land now at his beck & call. Being a kind Dem now & hoping for Nov, won't do it.
Quite simply: FUCK YES!
YES
What DO we do now? What can a retired old person do to make some difference? I know voting, but there has to be more. What is the most effective response?
You can contact your local Democratic group and ask for postcards and a mailing list. Postcards reminding people to vote close to the election have been shown to increase turnout by around 25%.
You might want to mention that democracy is at stake

I am a disabled working mom who cares for three disabled children. Writing letters, postcards, and text banking is an easy way to help!
And SURJ
Try to make sure your friends & family members know how bad things are & the only way to save democracy is to vote blue ALL DOWN THE BALLOT!
Your local Democratic campaign office wants people to do phone banks and door-to-door canvassing. Plus all the other stuff mentioned in the comments.
Marjorie, if you’re physically capable of writing, you could order postcards and postcard stamps from bluewavepostcards.org that encourage potential voters to register and vote in swing states. For $65 you can order 100 postcards and stamps and you’ll receive 100 self-stick pre-addressed labels. It doesn’t take too long to stamp and address each card and write a short message (included in the instructions). I think there’s a 15% discount for your first order. I found it very easy to do.
Done! Thanks for the info.
I’m doing postcards through turnoutpac.org. They send you the postcards, the lists and a tested script . (They do a lot of message testing and have real data results that they work.) You pay for stamps. My batch of 200 is due to go out on 10/11. Mobilize.us has other volunteer opportunities - many you can do from home.
If you're an introvert and want to do something from your home as I do, Join VOTE FORWARD. Check it out. It's in the list Amy has supplied.
Thank you Amy and Valerie!!
Maybe you could volunteer to do phone-banking, or writing post cards or letters to get out the vote? https://www.mobilize.us/?event_type=26 for phone-banking. Texting and postcards: https://www.mobilize.us/events/text-bank-volunteer-opportunities/. Letter writing events are here: https://www.mobilize.us/?event_type=27&is_virtual=true. Please pitch in and help, any amount of time is helpful! Our democracy has held for almost 250 years, now is not the time to quit. I try to do more, and worry less. Cheers! Bless you!
Call your precinct chair and volunteer to block walk or drive for the block walk. Join local democrats party and write postcards. Register kids to vote.
SPREAD THE EVIL OF TRUMP..
Third Act
You can live your best life and connect with your community and offer what brings you joy.
Everyone should petition Biden to add four seats to the Supreme Court under his new powers. It’s not packing the court. It’s balancing it and if TFG gets in the question he would do the same.
Exactly Julie
But can he really do that? Doesn’t Congress have to do that?
I am very worried that something similar to January 6 could happen on Election Day but even worse, Trump will try to hold on to power or force some kind of coup and will try to take power by force. I have nightmares of a new Civil War. I am from Puerto Rico and Trump treated us very badly when hurricane Maria devastated our island. How can a country like the United States allow a convicted felon to run and become president for a second disastrous term?
same here! I'm losing sleep thinking about all the ways they have disenfranchised voters, appointed sec. of state to overturn results if not to their liking. I still remember that video of him tossing paper towels to people... what a disaster of a human.
Try not to lose sleep, Mindi we all need to take care of ourselves so that we have the energy to go the distance. That means cutting ties with anyone who is robbing you of energy right now and filling your life with as much positivity as you can. We can do this if we stick together and refuse to be distracted!
It could happen either way but we cant be scared we fight like ukraine lke civil are that went before us we fight for the future of the young. Someone think of a march, a song like we are the world! I looked at flag 4 th july today and said trump just wants to tear this flag down
Trump was horrible to Puerto Rico! As another American, I was totally disgusted. Our Constitution was written too long ago— simple. No understanding of the complications of technology and multiple shot weapons. And, no imagination, that crooks would run for office, and actually get elected.
Agree on that why does heritage foundation write the project 2025 and not treasonous against are constitution?
Good luck and godspeed Mary. We're all doing whatever we can to defeat Trump.
Trump’s hush money case sentencing has been officially DELAYED until September 18, “if necessary,” Judge Merchan writes
Thanks Mary. So why has the judge delayed sentencing on the this case?
Seems to me the illegal act started before he was president.
I dont understand
The Judge is researching this appeal, and needs to sort out DJT's "Official Presidential assertions in this case. Except, NYC case was not a Federal case, but a State RICO case meaning not all evidence in this appeal will apply for DJTs appeal. He still may be remanded to jail anyway. 🤞🤞
Oh, we are trying to be fair, not political. Uphold the law. Bet Maga’s are laughing at us in a dive bar, everywhere in America, tonight.
Why shouldn’t Biden announce that he is a dictator on day 1260 and hereby decrees that Trump incited an insurrection that was not an official act of the Presidency and will therefore be held in his Trump Tower apartment for the remainder of his life?
Mostly because Joe is a man of character, and refuses to do anything that was illegal before the ruling. Tell people to google Project 2025. Most who read it, or portions of it, are appalled.
My thought is that Biden’s speech yesterday would have been far more effective if he began it with a false and outrageous edict such as what I wrote above, and then said that he announced that to prove a point-that we cannot have a democracy where one person is above the law.
Now THAT is a very good idea! Send it to the White House! If you don’t, I will!
yes do that I wrote something similar about 5 days ago Please all write the president@thewhitehouse.gov but check this link first i might have not put it correctly now so search how to email the President. I begged him to keep up his fight to win He has so much wisdom -Only he can beat TRUMP
WE are we the people. Regardless of what the Democratic party decides to do, WE "... fight the fight we're in." (quoting a Politico citation) The political class will define their strategies and fight the fight at their level. Whatever the pols do, we the people don't have a vote in that decision, so we have one job: register Dem voters and get them to the pols, fund Dem party efforts in swing states and candidates everywhere because every congressional seat matters more than ever. I accept that my opinion doesn't matter at every level, only at the "my own action" level. That focuses my thinking and actions.
ELOQUENTLY STATED, TRUDE ! YOUR OPINION AND YOUR HEART FELT.WORDS WILL BE JOINED WITH MANY OTHERS TO CREATE A DIN THAT CANNOT.BE IGNORED!. WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED!
I lived through the 1960s as a teenager. I was a young adult in the early 70s. America was divided then, but I have never been through such a scism of insanity as has happened since 2016. The criminally insane are beating their drums loudly but the American people have had enough and want to do something about it.
White men are enraged that the power they feel is entitled to them by birth is being taken away. That explains all of this.
Same here,1972 grad
I was Class of 1969. I went half a day to high school and half to the University of California at Berkeley. In February 1970 antiwar demonstrators burnt down the ROTC building on the UC Berkeley campus so Reagan and Nixon closed it down. June 1, 1970 I put my belongings in a 1963 Buick Wildcat and moved by myself to Arkansas.
Oh wow I was in Berkeley from 1974 through 1980 with a few brakes in there when I would go back-and-forth between there where my sister was and Cocoa Beach where my mother was. And I ran into someone from Berkeley from back then today at the grocery outlet here where I live now in Lakeport, California, I was born in Virginia and grew up summers in a place like a lot of the rural parts of northern California look until it gets dry. Well nice to meet you Darrell.
You mean the devil he is like the omen
What do we do to NOT lose our sanity? I am still shaking from the decision.
Thank you, Mary. 💙
My mom is 90 and seen depression hitler etc is shaking!
We have to be on the ground the young to old have to be together
Here's another 90 year old with visions of what Hitler, Mussolini, and fascism meant to.millions of.people.the world over...please put your arms around.your dear Mother and assure her that she is not alone!. Realize, one and all, that we have a real.up.hill fight on.our hands. This is the time we pull.up our knickers....do any and everything. we possibly can.do to seen that history....vile,.unthinkable history is not repeated! Keep trump and his ilk from destroying our beloved country!.Return Joe Biden.to the White House to finish the job he's started. VOTE BLUE !🤗
Caroline, doing stuff to help really helps. Postcards to voters, writing letters to the editor of your local paper, etc. You can make a choice not to be helpless. Do one thing every day. We have 119 days to act! When you take even a small a tion, you are taking back control and you feel like you are in the fight not just waiting for it to happen to you. MoveOn.org has a lot of projects going. You can do one thing. Or take one zoom workshop. There are other groups, too.
Is that 8pm EST? I’m in Minneapolis so always assume CST and miss things!
Question: Why was there no mention of any trouble with Biden until the debate and now everyone including most guests on MSNBC are calling for him to withdraw from the campaign and also, what do you think of MARIANNE Wiliamson who campaigned for 1.5 years and didn’t get one single delegate and now is ‘throwing her hat in the ring’ AGAIN for an open convention in August. Note: she’s 71 years old. Zero delegates and zero mention of Kamala Harris. If BIDEN decides to end it - and I don’t think he should- HOW is this country completely ignoring the VP, second in command? It’s an insult to women, to black women, to everyone who voted for their ticket in the primary.
He shouldnt give up he moved us through pandemic and more we should have his back we are his strength its time we showed joe
We have to proceed with the ticket we have- but ALZl cabinet members out front, on tv. Elect the group. Works for me . Too late to change.
His close circle has kept him out of the public eye…look at NYT.
I’m furious with the NYT - they threw him under the bus in 2020 and said he had no chance and should drop out. Biden cares not what the elitist and egomaniacal precious NYT has to say. And neither do I. I wrote a letter to the editor after their Opinion Piece. NYT never supported Biden. And never admitted after saying he should drop out in 2020; that not only did he win, beat Trump, but that he has had a remarkable first term.
I'm disgusted with the NYT; I don't know whether its Biden smear job is because of the chief editor's pique or because they're ass-kissing Trump because they don't want him to shut down "The Failing New York Times" if he becomes president again. I cancelled my 8+ years-long subscription Saturday after reading months worth of complaints about Biden's age and then the dumptruck full of opinions saying Biden should step down after one bad debate. The disgraceful SCOTUS opinions on both Chevron and presidential immunity got fewer and much smaller headlines NYT than did the debate performance. The NYT seems tainted to me now.
ps - I didn't actually read any of the debate opinions--only the headlines/ledes. Even those made me nauseous.
SPOT.ON, DOCTOR....BULLS EYE.!🤗
I am sorry but the NYT is hoping to be the next Pravda.
Why? Because it’s corporate me media and every single one of those stations and the major newspapers are owned or the CEO is a Republican donor. we do not have a free media; they are bought.
It was always going to come down to the vote. Just do it.
I am not on TikTok or Facebook. Both are disinformation hubs
Mary, will you post major answers to questions here as many do not have TikTok. Thank you.
Thank you Mary!
Also, for anyone who missed it, amazing must watch episode of the Nerd Avengers today:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFWzcRTJQgc
Question: Is there any chance that Biden will use this SCOTUS ruling for anything that could give him an advantage to help weaken Trump and his MAGA movement? Also, somebody on another Substack site said today that it's already too late, Trump will win and we're going to be under a Putin and Orban like dictatorship since elections won't matter. I'm not buying this crap and still believe we can do this. Thank you for everything you do Mary.
You Go Girl ! I'm so very proud of you and all the hard work you do, literally,Day and Night. Don't know where you find the energy, Mary?! Good luck with your video chat this evening and Always ! and remember how very important you are to all of us and the country. Blessings 💕😘👍
