Biden has been doing these grassroots fundraisers online the past month with a variety of people. The last 2 with Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren did incredibly well. The one tomorrow is with - Barack Obama

Oddly not one with Bernie Sanders.  Hmm.

The reprehensible Shaun King is now advocating for any images of a white Jesus to be taken down. 

 

I have not heard of any real activists who ever advocate this type of position. It feels like a very deliberate attempt to not only get attention, but also to muddy the waters and give power to those on the right who insist that BLM and other groups are on some kind of ever-expanding mission of destruction.

 

This is why some on the left giving him such a loud voice was a terrible idea. He can't run his con as well as he planned since Bernie lost, so he's trying to sabotage Biden, and beyond that, as this isn't just about Biden, he's also trying to sabotage the many activists who have repeatedly called him out and tried to make people wake up about him.

 

Just shameful. And yet I still don't think people will fully shut the door on him.

 

It's pathetic. Sessions spent decades as one of the leading hatemongers on the right. Just another example of how Trump grinds anyone who gets near him into the dust.

He's being derided and mocked by every Black person on Twitter, his main stomping ground. If some on the left aren't smart enough to have peeped his game by now, there's no help for it, I guess.  People are free to waste their money on gambling and grifters, if they want to ignore the year+ worth of warnings.

Zoom is also hella insecure (see what I did there? Seriously, though) and I seek to avoid them at every turn.

I'm no fan of Google but I'm more inclined to use their video services because better to "stick with the devil you know".

 

 

 

 

Are there still any Trump apologists left on this board? Lurking?  Just in case.

What annoys me most is many people will just turn a blind eye or say "Well he didn't really mean it" because they can't face who he is or they don't care because they are as sick as he is. 

 

Meanwhile, the scum working for him just keep on grifting.

I can't believe anyone at the NYT is paid to write an article like this...and what a shock that with Maggie Haberman's constant push to show how important she is to the Trump circle they also have a story that heavily uses her first name.

 

(they didn't even get the name of the song right!)

Me too. I hate all of this video conferencing, although for a different reason. I just don't want to deal with any of it. Just let me isolate in peace for heaven's sake.  But no. Every kindergarten teacher, rabbi, doctor and her sister wants to video conference with me.  I almost (but not quite) wish it were 1990 again.
