Georgia is in play in 2024.

“I believe that Trump can be placed among a long line of demagogues who possess the skills needed to tap into the fears and anxieties of a group of people that perceives itself as marginalized, at risk and not in control.”

It worked for Democrat Lester Maddox in 1967, and it’s working for Trump this year

Irish, European election counts to begin following a campaign marred by intimidation and abuse.

The sorting and counting of ballots in the local and European elections, and in the Limerick mayoral election, will begin at count centres across the country this morning after a campaign marred by incidents of intimidation, abuse and in some cases violence against candidates. Gardai are understood to be pursuing several investigations into instances of assault or intimidation over the past month, while research by two anti-extremist groups confirmed the views of many parties and politicians about a campaign which has seen repeated occasions where candidates feared for their safety. Candidates from across the political spectrum were targeted, including far-right candidates and those critical of immigration. However, researchers said “the majority of those taking part in such actions are influenced by far-right rhetoric.” This trend mirrors an increase in far-right political violence across the European Union, the report states.

    And at least made a campaign website, which is a lot more than has done to win over voters. You should check it out:

    “But if there were a Palestinian state now, it would be run by Hamas and we would have a Taliban-like state – a satellite state of Iran” he told RBB, a local broadcaster, on Thursday. “Is this what the progressive movements of the Western Left want to create?”

    🔻'Trump would be worse' is a bad argument & misses several key points.
    🔻Biden is pitting vulnerable groups here against genocide victims in Palestine.
    🔻If Biden loses, it will be HIS fault.

    @palestine @israel

    There’s a game of chicken going on. The Biden camp is explicitly counting on progressive voters eventually falling in line. This dynamic, this wager, is EXACTLY why they keep sending arms and money to Israel. They are expressly blackmailing left voters, pitting vulnerable groups stateside with genocide victims overseas. This is their calculus and millions of voters intuitively know this. Meanwhile the moral incumbency is placed on some vague cohort of Arab/black/progressive voters This is the CONTEXT of the discussion and rallying the troops at this point—six months before the actual decision needs to be made—reads to a lot of people as capitulation without a fight, as confirmation Biden’s strategy is working in real time. I too find this incredibly insensitive and vulgar. Without ANY CONCESSIONS, without a fight at all people of influence and power should not preemptively pledge their vote. Whats the rush? It’s six months from now? It’s a Hail Mary but why not try to unite to pressure Biden?
    Not because anyone wants to, or because it’s fun or makes people feel self righteous but because, and this can’t be stressed enough—IT’S ALL THERE IS. And it’s all there is because of Biden’s extremism and unwillingness to listen to overwhelming democratic voter consensus I tried to articulate this in this piece from March. I think the abstract question of “is Trump worse than Biden” is not a question anyone has to sheepdog for this far out. It’s not clear to me what the moral utility of this is at this point.

    Tweet by @adamjohnsonCHI My contribution to the “we still have to vote for Biden discourse” is this: I think the popular debate suffers from a flawed premise that this is some abstract trolly problem without political context. 🧵 That Trump “would be worse” is a reasonable position in the abstract ofc but it’s secondary to the CONTEXT of the debate which everyone keeps avoiding but I think it’s the far more interesting and urgent question. What function does the specter of massive vote withholding have? 6 months before the election in Q media influencers and progressive politicians pledging their partisan fidelity serves no functional purpose other than undermining the SINGLE point of leverage powerless angry anti-genocide voters have, which is Team Biden’s fear of losing in Nov It sucks that this is the one point of meaningful leverage they have, but it is, and it’s entirely due to Biden’s cold stubbornness and the cracking down on on meaningful dissent.

    It's astonishing that anyone could post such horrifically offensive garbage as this, and still hope to be taken seriously.

    You're attempting to elect Republicans, whose position is "there are very few innocent Palestinian citizens...we should kill them all...gotta finish the problem...like Hiroshima and Nagasaki." You're trying to cause terrible harm to some of the world's most vulnerable people.
