They're going to preach FREEDOM!, while encouraging women to commit the most anti -freedom thing possible...Ending lives before they ever have a chance to take a free breath...

Really? They encourage women to commit to ending lives?
You got a citation to support that?

@George-K said in The DNC Convention:

Starts tomorrow.

What? No "White people caucus?"

How does Antonio Delgado decide which group to go to?

Attend one in-person, the other via teleconference.
Heck, attend multiple caucuses via teleconference.
We have the technology to accommodate that now.

By the way, Biden's giving a speech at the DNC tonight, and then headed back to DC at 11 PM.

He won't be attending Harris's speech.

The bare minimum. The last hurrah of The Coup.

It has to be tough (and somewhat embarrassing) for him. Always nice to go out in a way you want. When it happens in another way.........

May not be over, yet.

There is a rumor that if Trump is whacking Kamala-lama-ding-dong in late September, Biden resigns (or is pushed out by the 25th), giving the Kamrade Kampaign a pop.

[George K]

Another bummer is that Biden is going to announce his resignation today.

Joe looks a lot like my dad…Posture, eyes, movement, speaking cadence…

That would probably swing things back, very damn quickly.

A thought...

Biden will never accept the Democrat nomination for president in a crowded convention hall in front of thousands of cheering delegates...

Opening remarks by an Indigenous guy.

He continued, "From time immemorial, our ancestors lived in the Great Lakes region. However, in 1849, an illegal auction by the U.S. government forcibly removed our tribe from our homeland. Since then, we have been working to reclaim it."

"From time immemorial" meaning the time this Indigenous guy took it away from some other Indigenous guy.

Anyone watching?

I didn't watch the RNC convention.

I didn't watch either in 2020, 2016...

I plan to continue my streak.

I watched part of the RNC.

Screentime for the DNC ain't looking good.

[Jolly]

Besides, the Dems pushed Biden's speech out of primetime.

Must of just been bad luck...
