In this election, we face a choice between two visions for our nation: One focused on the future and the other on the past.
We are fighting for the futureโand when we fight, we win.
Join the fight:
I'm sorry, but I don't get this beef with the new Star Wars movies. I like em, alot. And if you don't like em, don't watch em. I love seeing the original characters (like
@HamillHimself
), and I love
@RealRonHoward
and his Solo film. Seriously, some folks just need to chill!

Mine too. There are so many people I know that I used to respect that I no longer do. It's incomprehensible to me that anyone can still support the convicted felon and honestly believe they're patriots.
@VICENews
When I went in the Army in '84, I was going in to be a priest. The school was booked, so I went MI instead. Still, I was religious until by the mid-90s and two Promise Keepers conventions later, I'd realized what evil organized religion was. It was all about control. Not God.

You aren't a militia...and we have one now. And a police force. Your right as an individual to own an assault rifle should not supercede the right of a child to attend school without being killed by a weapon of war.
I can always tell a fake Star Wars fan...I'm old enough to have seen every SW movie in theaters, Rogue One is my absolute favorite...real fans realize the canon is ongoing, evolving and damn sure don't try and tear the franchise down with relentless negative criticism...
Until 2016, I had always voted person over party. With the advent of Trumpism and the

STOP THE HOLD! As a US Army/US Army Reserves disabled war veteran, I think it's despicable to not allow crucial military appointments to be made as a cowardly political move. Enough is enough. Stop this nonsense and let these appointments go through.

Is it just me, or does it seem like the obvious solution is being ignored? DON'T BUY THE TICKETS! You don't have to go. Trust me, if only 500 tix are sold for a 20,000 arena show, those prices will drop rapidly.
Good morning ๐
I love saying good morning to as many folks as I can. Recent changes have made this challenging. My timeline is topsy turvy and will not allow me to see everyone like before Elon nuked the app. If I've missed you just know I will always wish you a good morning ๐
@cmclymer
Very well said. As a former journalist, I can tell you polling data should be used to SUPPORT a story. They were never intended to BE the story. Now they're used to twist the narrative creating headlines that particular media wants.

@Acosta
Sorry, not from my perspective. Trump refuses to answer any questions and no one makes him accountable.
@Acosta
at least tries. I believe the media should just get up and walk out as soon as Trump opens his mouth, or not show up at all...
@WalshFreedom
Agreed. Except the AR-15, shouldn't be allowed for civilian use anyway. The problem though, is there's not many gun rights advocates who feel the same. This forces us to deal with the problem without their input. But action must be taken. Now.
@blueheartedly
@MayoIsSpicyy
He is.
@POTUS
has really impressed me. He's been in an impossible situation after Trump, and several major issues at once (Covid, Ukraine, etc.). In addition, I fear several industries (which are gop sympathizers) are actively price gouging, blaming Biden. He's stayed strong.
@shannonrwatts
I never thought I'd say this, but as a whole, this country is no longer responsible enough for firearms ownership. We can't trust its citizens or its elected officials to do the right thing.
@RollingStoneUK
@Harry_Styles
In all seriousness, can anyone name five songs from this guy that would go on a greatest hits album, that most people would know? ๐ค because even for folks who weren't pop fans, they could do that with MJ. I honestly had to Google Styles just to see who he was.
I felt the exact same when I visited the Grand Canyon five years ago, made me feel proud...and folks, you've got to visit the Grand Canyon, life changing experience for me...
When we visited Yellowstone we almost felt were in the minority of visitors to the park as Americans. I must've heard twenty different languages. Folks from all over the world visit

daily.
@thomaskaine5
Totally agree. I'm in Dayton, Oh. I'm a bartender/disabled vet. I talk to a lot of folks. The people I talk to frequently really don't trust polls anymore, because the liberals are 100 percent behind Biden. They're pissed at those asking him to step down.

@Mollyploofkins
Sorta. I've got a friend I've been working on since 2017. He's no Biden fan, but he's gone from Trump worshipper to despising him and the GOP. All I did was ask him to do his own research, not blindly trust Fox, the GOP or trump tweets. But he's the only one...so far.
@cbouzy
Well said! We voted for a ticket that includes Vice President Kamala Harris with the understanding that she'd move up if something ever happened to the President. The public, we the people, HAVE had our say.
A big old fuck you to Mr. Tweet
@elonmusk
for what he's done to our timelines. I have no clue what I'm scrolling through and who some of these folks are. Congratulations dude, you've spent $44 billion to destroy Twitter. Well done...
@ResisterSis20
Welker is a disaster. The problem is most of the guests have no place being given air time at all. Why interview someone you know is going to lie and spew mostly maga propaganda. A big problem with politics nowadays is opinion-based talk shows. They need to go. Rapidly.
@RepMarkMeadows
Respectfully disagree sir, as a US Army war vet, our current commander in chief has shown a deplorable lack of empathy for our troops... Harken back to this past Veteran's Day if you need a recent example... Please stop giving an 'atta boy's to a man who hasn't earned one...
@MollyJongFast
And seriously, it can only get worse as the
@GOP
continues to make obtaining and carrying all guns easier and easier...I fear most the start of the school year. It's going to be chaos...
I just wanted to thank everyone for the birthday greetings yesterday. As we get older, our social circle can get smaller and we can start to feel alone. A simple gesture like wishing someone Happy Birthday or Good Morning can make someone's day. You made mine special!

I was once a sports writer covering big sporting events in Ohio, big bylines, etc. A disability sidelined me a few years ago, I work for $8.30 an hour for a minor league baseball team (part-time), and I've never been happier!!!

@oasis
Well, it was underwhelming. They were being hyped beyond what they were capable of producing. I like Oasis, but they're the most overrated band in rock history. The industry/critics were desperate for them to become the modern Beatles. They were a very good band. Just not great.
Stay strong and keep speaking up. Trust me, if the unvaccinated actually were faced with the choice to vax or get drafted, they'd choose the needle, rapidly...
Totally agree, progressive political ideology is the future, mainly, I think, a majority of youngsters grew seeing Dems and Reps hate each other and don't want to align with either.
@RandiWhite
@Boaz1951
Truth! Every single trump supporter I know -- and unfortunately that's a lot -- supports that man solely because they know he'll protect their white privilege. That's it. They don't care about nothing but the white they see in the mirror...
The Founders wrote the Constitution; not the Apostles. They added the Bill of Rights; not the Ten Commandments. Their intent was Freedom of Religion. It was not Control by Religion. They created a Democracy; not a Theocracy. Christianity is not a political party.
#FreshResists
@WalshFreedom
The question is, what now? Vote them out? We will, but that's gonna take time. Until then far too many of us are proving we can't handle freedoms like speech/gun ownership, making being a person of color, a woman, an LGBTQ person a daily deadly anxiety filled nightmare.
@SusanSarandon
@MilesKlee
I don't always agree with
@SusanSarandon
but I've always admired her passion/activism. She did NOT cost Hillary the election in 16. Sorry to Ms. Sarandon, but she doesn't have that kind of clout. Hillary underestimated Trump, pandering to celebrities rather than us regular folks.
Quit asking 'when is it going to stop?'
It will not stop because policing in America is rooted in a white power structure, generationally trained to protect what they have against those 'other people.'

@AZ_Brittney
I'm not sure
@AZ_Brittney
realizes just how awesome she is, but I agree with you, she's been amazing in helping folks amplify their voices!
A seriously dark side to the anti-Republican movement is these equally evil Dems getting a free pass to grift, which they're doing. We need more folks like
@BernieSanders
and
@ninaturner
to help us fight this American nightmare.

Some advice: teaching your kids to hate will not end well. The sooner you teach love with an open heart the better. Hate gains you nothing but heartache and pain.
@softtail65
Correct. There's no way in hell he should have received a BCI security clearance let alone hold the highest position in our government. His tenure was compromised before it began.
