I saw a recent clip of Harris addressing her audience at a book tour in the city where I live. The theater was jam-packed with her supporters. There were some protesters inside who, in response to Harris’ comments about her legacy, stood up and shouted, “your legacy is genocide.” She shouted back in her signature condescending tone that she was not the president and suggested that the protesters should direct their criticisms to Trump. What she was really saying was what she said in a mocking tone to pro-Palestinian protesters during the campaign: if you don’t like my position on Israel, go ahead and “vote for Trump.”In other words, you got what you asked for. The protesters were roughly escorted out to the wild cheers of her supporters, who stood up en masse to unleash what can only be described as hatred toward the protesters. It reminded me of what someone I met who had participated in the protests in DC when Netanyahu addressed Congress told me: that they were confronted by Harris supporters who taunted and threw things at them. This is, in the words of journalist Jeremy Scahill, “the MAGA blue cult,” the vote blue no matter who crowd, even if it means voting for genocide. I’ve met these people and they scare and disgust me. They’re willing to sacrifice a whole people to preserve their comfortable way of life. It wouldn’t occur to them to work for candidates who oppose genocide — it’s just not important to them. I hope that Harris’ book sales tank, but don’t underestimate the amorality of a large part of the U.S. public. Harris, the perpetual sorority girl. May she take her millions and disappear from public life.

Yep, 107 days were in fact, probably about 45 days too many. Had the election happened before Kamala's consultants sidelined Tim Walz and told her to start campaigning with Mark Cuban and Liz Cheney, she might have actually won.

The Buttigieg thing is funny because there were any number of very valid reasons not to choose him for VP. First off he's not qualified, he's never served in the House or the Senate, never been a governor, and was a disaster of a small town mayor. Also Buttigieg is exactly the kind of fake, corrupt empty suit that Harris is. But none of those things bothered her at all, it was just that his sexuality could be a liability lol.

Thank you for including this b/c it has certainly been forgotten: ..."a disaster of a small town mayor."

I will never forgive Kamala for not having the courage to 1. Ditch Biden

2. Have a Palestinian speaker at the DNC

3. Not have any balls in this situation.

4. Not coming out of her defeat with a bang rather than silence.

And I worked very hard for her to win. She broke my heart.

My biggest disappointment to date is the people that continue to support Harris and in turn, a genocide. AND, I am afraid for the U.S. because I cannot imagine such an individualistic society surviving. Do people not see the connections between the zionist project and the conditions in the U.S.?

We exist in world where on a daily basis listening to the "news" is like wading in a sewer. Why on earth did Zeteo actually think adding to the sewer was a positive? What did the asinine comic provide that was of use to the party going forward? Nothing. The biggest mistake the Democratic Party made was allowing Biden to run in the first place! From a campaign perspective I get why Harris was tapped at the last minute and I honestly do not think any other viable candidate at the time would have done any better. The Dems were sunk from the .moment Biden announced.

Time To Organize Against Cheeto and His Nazi Allies

The upcoming Oct 18 No Kings protest is a rallying point around which we can consolidate our voices in dissent of what Cheeto and his Nazi party are trying to do to our government

But as important is to develop a long term strategy for our movement As Marc Elias writes in Democracy Docket(https://bit.ly/4n0Qj1J) there needs to be a long range plan that requires organizing around a set of strategies that ensure the takedown of this radical right wing fascist movement that we have come to know as MAGA which by the way has been in the works for at least 2 decades This is not just about 2026 but there and beyond 2028, 2030, 2032 Apathy doesn’t win

As Elias points out we need to organize for the long term around the protection of voting rights, supporting each other with conviction and energy, and being proactive not reactive So much of what is termed journalism is merely a reporting of what has happened in the day While that’s valuable we need to go on the offensive with a plan to attack MAGA Sadly the DNC is woefully behind the power curve and it’s up to all of us to show up WE the People show up and lead the way but that’s how it should always be

Trying to picture what our country would be like if she were the president is a fantasy bridge too far. We'd be in deep sh*t of an entirely other style but sh*t all the same. We really do deserve better than the Uniparty.

If Harris had won, there would no doubt be shit, but we would NOT be in the middle of an authoritarian overthrow! There would be competent, qualified people in the Cabinet, our personal data would not be sitting on Palantir servers being weaponized against us and there sure as hell would not be an out-of-control, lawless masked police force terrorizing our cities. The economy would not be in free fall, there would not be tariff wars creating inflation and the job numbers woukd be up. There would not be a major brain drain of our best scientists, researchers and professors to foreign countries. There woukd not be major measles outbreaks in at least three states with children dying. Lastly, US allies would still have our back. .So go fuck yourself!

Linda, I’m with you. Harris wasn’t perfect but no comparison to the shit show we’re living in now. Our democracy would still be intact. All the post-election critics & non-voters can go fuck themselves.

I see you're still coping and seething and failing to see the direct connection between narcissistic careerist ghouls like Harris and the success of Trump. We have Trump (again) precisely because Harris had no moral compass or courage, precisely because she would rather lose and frame her political cowardice as loyalty in a book for $20M than stand up against a genocide and tell Joe Biden and her billionaire donors and their consultants to piss off. But hey, what are hundreds of thousands of dead Palestinians to you (or her), right? How about you take your Harris pom-poms and go fuck off yourself Linda.

May I be honest? I enjoy satire, but, this satirical presentation wasn't impressive🫤.

Kamala was simply not empowered or motivated enough to bring any change in the status quo and people saw through her pretentiousness. She has lost her bid for presidency forever.
