Good morning!

Helen: Yes, I’ve covered it quite a lot, but it appears it still needs more media attention. And I am happy to pass it over to Maher to do just that.

In his Editorial New Rule, Bill Maher cautions young voters against characterizing the choice between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton as picking between “the lesser of two evils.”

New Rule: The Danger of False Equivalency | Real Time with Bill Maher

Readers: It’s like he’s reading my mind. Voting is one of the most important things we can do. And being an informed voter who actually does their research is something that you would think goes without saying. But evidently like Maher, I agree, people get so fucking Lazy when it comes to politics, and knowing civics.

Did Maher speak your thoughts too? If not, what’s on your mind?

Blog me.

AH: It’s been awhile. Nice to see you here. As always your comments get right to the point. Where are you all now? Don’t be such a stranger. My best to you, Bita, and Adam.

Ruth/AF: Isn’t it amazing that if things are said often enough by enough people it becomes truth. And as Maher says, people are too lazy to do the research. If they did they would know that voter fraud is really a non issue. I’m happy to hear from you. I hope all is well. Give my love and hugs to the family.

Charles: Happy to hear! I hope your friends are feeling the same way.

Dwight:  Well, that doesn’t surprise me at all. I googled Trump’s speaking fees and discovered you are absolutely correct.

Kent: So delighted to hear that! I have no doubt your decision will have positive affects on your children that will reach far more than just your immediate family. Thank you.

Aina: That she is. I love this blog too because I learn so much from so many women here. It may sound banal but the women inspire me to be a better me.

Kali: Thank you for taking the time to inspire your friends and for their votes. Awesome. I hope you show the rest the video I posted too. Perhaps when they discover that their friend Bernie lies more than Hillary, they will join you and the other 9.

If you haven’t voted yet, and live in a state where you can vote early, do it…do it today if you can. Get dressed up in your Halloween costume, grab your friends,and have a little fun as you strut to the polling booth or you’re waiting in line for your turn. Let’s make herstory.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Good morning!

From the DailyKos:

Cartoon: No comparison

 

Readers: So true. As it has been pointed out before, if it was Hillary acting like Trump, people would be appalled and her candidacy for president would be all over. Period. Double standards are alive and showing up big time in this crazy political climate. I need to remind myself to take a deep breath and prepare myself because the double standards and misogyny that will show up when Hillary becomes Madame President will be even more palpable.

But like Hillary we women are strong. We have been living with being treated as second class citizens, dealing with sexism and misogyny on a daily basis in our country and around the world. And like Hillary’s display of great self-control, we too are symbols of great self-control, and are ready to take on the Trumps of the world.

Thoughts? Blog me.

Good morning!

Slavery has not ended in this country; it has just been modernized in the form of mass incarceration. I am saddened and sickened by the people who support Trump. They have no idea what they’re voting for. Or perhaps they do.

From the Huff Po:

This Chilling Video Makes It Clear What’s Really Going On At Trump Rallies

The past isn’t dead. It’s not even past.

State troopers swing billy clubs to break up a civil rights voting march in Selma, Alabama, March 7, 1965.

Since Republican nominee Donald Trump launched his presidential campaign last year, his fervent supporters have helped turn his rallies into the most high-octane political events in recent memory.

Trump’s rallies are frequently hotbeds of racism, misogyny, Islamophobia and anti-immigrant sentiment. His supporters have threatened journalists and assaulted protesters on multiple occasions.

Trump himself has encouraged this bloodthirsty rage by reminiscing about the “good old days” when protesters and outsiders at political events could expect to be “roughed up,” and perhaps even leave “on a stretcher.” The nominee at one point also promised to pay the legal fees of anyone who’d violently assault protesters at his events. (He later backtracked and claimed he’d never said that.)

Meanwhile, Trump and his advisers dismiss any suggestion that there could be an undercurrent of violence or rage at his events. “Are Trump rallies the most fun?” Trump asked a crowd earlier this year, as a protester was being dragged out of a convention hall.

Even so, it wasn’t until I watched this chilling new clip from the Netflix documentary “13TH” that I understood the full significance of the violence at Trump’s rallies.

What we’re seeing today has its roots in one of the darkest chapters in the nation’s history. This clip should not only scare you ― it should remind you of how much work there’s left to do in the struggle for civil rights.

Click on the image to be redirected to the Huff Po to watch.

“13TH,” directed by the renowned documentary filmmaker Ava DuVernay, takes its title from the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which outlawed slavery after the Civil War.

DuVernay’s film zeroes in on a particular 13-word section of the amendment that permits involuntary servitude “as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.” From this clause, “13TH” draws a direct line to the mass incarceration crisis facing the country today.

“13TH” is available for streaming on Netflix. Watch the trailer below.

Good morning!

This has been out forever…at least a week :)  - isn’t that a long time in this day and age where news is instantaneous? But I loved it, so I had to post it.

Plus…I thought this would get you in the mood for tonight’s final debate. From the Huff Po:

Samantha Bee Unleashes NSFW ‘Vagina Monologue’ On Donald Trump

“Oh yeah, I’m going in on this like a b***h!”

Samantha Bee pulled no punches on Monday when it came to analyzing Donald Trump’s repugnant remarks about women.

The “Full Frontal” host unleashed her full fury on the GOP presidential nominee, who was recorded making lewd comments during a hot mic conversation with then “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush in 2005.

Dubbing the brash businessman and Bush as “two leering dildos,” Bee said, “Oh yeah, I’m going in on this like a bitch.”

Bee highlighted Trump’s staggering hypocrisy by going through his subsequent apology video line-by-line. She then mocked all of the television networks that refused to use the word “pussy” in their coverage of the scandal by delivering her own “Vagina Monologue.”

😝*****😝

Happy Hump Day!

Blog me. 

Mohan: I’m sorry about that. Not sure why they wouldn’t post. I found your comments in spam and approved them.

Peace out.

From lgbtqnation:

The #PantsuitPower flashmob for Hillary Clinton is exactly what you need today

The social media campaign “Humanity for Hillary” is making a splash this week with a new video of a #PantsuitPower flashmob. Dozens of dancers clad in Hillary’s signature look took to New York City‘s Union Square for an incredibly choreographed performance of Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop The Feeling.”

Filmmakers Mia Lidofsky and Celia Rowlson-Hall – a lesbian couple – produced and planned the weekend event featuring breakdancing, streamers, backflips and, of course, lots and lots of colorful jackets.

The group says on their website that “As of September 1, our social media campaign has reached more than 25 million people online, and our videos have been viewed almost 5 million times. We’ve been covered by more than 50 mainstream media outlets and in 44 out of 50 states – all because of the positive, people-powered movement of HRC supporters who want to use art and creativity to help get her message out.”

Watch the joy unfold below and try not to shout, “I’m with her!”

Readers: What more can I say? #ImWithHer

Welcome to San Francisco, Hillary!

Obama’s last 100 days starts today. Where did the time go? 

Blog me. 

PS: **Trump is going down.**

Peace & Love.
