If the Dems win the senate, expect this retirement and then the Senate GOP will jam the next person down our throats. Probably someone like Judge Eileen Cannon. Good lord www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

Justice Alito confirms he is considering retirement

The conservative Supreme Court justice said in a CBS News interview that he’ll revisit the issue next year.

Vote like you are going to need not just a democratic majority, but a tie-breaking Vance proof majority & a Fetterman-proof majority. Vote like the other side will have nothing to lose by doing their worst for the next two years. If Congress is lost, it will be because of the people who stayed home.

How important is it to vote? Remember that the GOP has consistently outperformed their polls by 6-9% in elections for the last 12 years, including Trumps last mid-term. Vote against the GOP if you don’t want to see Vance deliver Trump’s agenda for the next two years as the tiebreaker. #election

I don't give a damn if the media is calling a landslide. Get your ass to the polls anyway! Complacency is how we lose. Drop the comfort, lock in, and vote like democracy depends on it—because it does!

The WSJ has Democrats winning by 51% in 5 weeks. This doesn’t reflect polling errors that over project their chances, & it doesn’t account for election disruptions or interference. Vote like Hungry did to overthrow Orban. Every vote is needed in such overwhelming numbers that they can’t be ignored.

What can I, as one individual do? You can at least do the very least. Register to vote. Ensure your registration sticks. Share your thoughts on your media. Talk to those open to your words. Offer a ride to the polls. These are not heroic, but necessary acts. Don’t suffer with regret in the future.

Nobody knows how to pull up the social safety ladder behind themselves like the GOP. Every hard early life relies on the kindness of others and social services that are forgotten once power and privilege has been obtained.

Every member of the GOP that is “breaking with the Trump” needs to do so w/ more than words. ACTIONS. The GOP is in charge of all branches of government. Recall Congress. Use Constitutional powers to stop the War with Iran. Force the release of all the files. Show us change by doing your job.

China, starting in August, has returned to their prior levels of oil purchasing. They are no longer relying on their oil reserves, which was cushioning oil prices worldwide. Could it be that they are creating conditions for an economic disaster at the pumps in time for a GOP reckoning in November?

They are not Christian Nationalists. They are antithetical to the teachings of Christ. They are Religious Nationalists, having laid the foundation of a violent, vengeful, & vein new worship on the wreckage of their father’s faith, creating a new American religion on the iconography of Christianity.

If you invest in SpaceX or buy a Tesla today, it isn’t because there aren’t alternative investments or vehicles. By this point, you are a financing supporter of a specific world view.

this comparison leaves out a key point: the Edsel sold roughly twice the Cybertruck's volume at a time when the overall car market was just 6m units/year instead of the current 16m units/year that makes the Cybertruck the much, much bigger flop, hands down
