Here is another example of what's in store for America if trump wins the presidency -

trump wants to let Kennedy “go wild on food” and “go wild on medicines.”

RFK Jr. said Trump promised him ‘control’ of HHS (CDC, FDA, NIH, ...) and USDA - and replace science based medicine by quack based medicine.

Kamala Harris: In less than 90 days, either Donald Trump or I will be in the Oval Office. I won’t walk into that office with an enemies list. I’ll bring a to-do list of priorities to get done for the American people.

Those who disagree with us are not ‘the enemy within,’ as Trump says. They are our fellow Americans. It is time to stop pointing fingers and start locking arms. It is time for a new generation of leadership.

A rare endorsement from The Verge, penned by editor-in-chief Nilay Patel.

A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for school shootings and measles

"Trump only cares about himself. He generally does not care to solve problems unless it benefits him personally, and the intellectual foundation of the MAGA movement that’s built up around him is the complete denial that collective action problems exist at all."

As Jeff Sharlet explained in the previous post, this is standard operating procedure for the trump campaign and the MAGA base - throw out racist red meat to the base, then claim it was a joke and issue a wink-wink apology. The base meanwhile is wallowing in the racism and laughing all the way to their dens.

Let's give 'em hell for their naked racism and dehumanization of Puerto Ricans and Latinos (and women and PoC and LGBTQ).

Let's pick up our phones and talk/write to our friends and family and get them to the polls, in case they are not motivated to vote. Let's shout from the rooftops about the dystopian nightmare planned for us by the MAGA party. Let's GOTV.

Silence is not an option.

Posting a tweet by Geraldo Rivera was not on my Bingo card, but here he is, seriously miffed at the naked racism of the MAGA party. He had endorsed Kamala Harris earlier this month. Let's hope he is able to open a few more eyes.

Let's make sure every Latino and every Puerto Rican sees these tweets and video clips, coming from the trump hate-fest at Madison Square Garden.

None of this is accidental, all of it is planned. It is not an appeal to Independents. It is simple raw red meat for the base and the base alone.

AOC: "Organizing ask: I need every Boricua on here to take that rally clip and drop it in your family WhatsApps and group chats"

Let's do it! If we stay quiet, the forces of hate and fascism will win.

New ABC News/Ipsos poll shows Kamala Harris with a 4 point lead nationally over trump.

"The poll finds a notable shift in vote preferences among Hispanic people, 12% of likely voters and a potentially important group given the close contest, esp. in the battleground states of AZ and NV. Biden won Hispanic people by 33 points in 2020, per the ABC News exit poll, and Harris leads in this group by a similar 30 points now, 64-34% -- compared with 55-43% in early Oct."
