MLAA's JournalI'm looking for near instant KARMA-LA after that facist, racist, misogynist, hitleresque rally yesterday.
This has got to help us, particularly with the large Puerto Rican populations in PA and FL.
I dropped off my ballot yesterday and had 3 encounters that encouraged me.
I took my ballot to a drop off location. They will also become an early voting site next week. There was a steady stream dropping off ballots. There were 3 windows with a sign indicating they were there for voting questions. Id automatically signed my inner ballot envelope as I normally would with a middle initial rather than full middle name yet the name on my ballot included my full middle name, so I went up to the window and asked if that would be a problem. The guy said no, as long as my signature matched, no issue and he confirmed Id put my phone number on the envelope. While there I asked how he it was going and he said they were filling up a drop box about every hour! Now, heres my 3 encounters:
1. I have an exercise session twice a week. During yesterdays I asked my trainer if hed received his ballot. He said his wife had but he hadnt. I told him about the website to check on his ballot. He checked and it indicated no ballot had been sent. I assured him I could be trusted count my own reps and say good job while he called to figure out the problem. Turns out there was some issue with an address change hed made on Motor Vehicles Division that was suppose to update voting records that didnt work. So he was told where he needed to go to remedy the situation. A blue vote is now insured! PS: During the 10 minutes he was on the phone, I completed all required reps and didnt slack off, though I considered it 😬.
2. As I was leaving the drop off parking area, I saw an electric scooter with an old white dude heading in. At that distance all I could see was an American flag waving from the back. And sadly, my first reaction was an old white dude was on his way to vote for TFG. As he got closer I had to admonish myself, because now I could see a rainbow flag behind the American Flag as well as a Harris - Walz sign. I quickly lowered the window and yelled Go Harris. Without looking over or slowing down the dude gave me a thumbs up and kept going.
3. Next stop UPS. Ive been going there for years and the manager provides the best customer service Ive seen anywhere. As I was leaving I reminded him not to forget to vote. He said I havent missed a vote since I was 18 and first voted for Bush Sr. I thought damn, how could Carlos, a Latino man around mid 50s who was so kind, vote for Trump? So I said I hope you steer clear of Trump this go-around. He grimaced and said Id never vote for him!
It was a wonderful day.
I'm thinking the flood of right wing polls coming out of the woodwork are primarily to increase the value of DJT stock
so that TSF and his cronies can dump their stock at a better price. Any thoughts?
I'm going to the Walz rally this afternoon in Tucson! Wish me luck that I get in!
My husband has a pulmonologist appointment this afternoon so I wont be able to go early enough to ensure I get in. Its held at a High School so not a huge facility. I can only arrive 15 mins before it starts. Parking is an issue, so Ill take Lyft there and back.
I really want to attend, but on the other hand if I cant it will be because the venue was sold out which would be wonderful.
Will TFG be competent to stand additional trials by the time they finally start?
Here is a long, but interesting, article about people with dementia committing crimes. I found it when pondering the question of whether TFG will ever go to prison. Until recently I was optimistic. Perhaps if the sentencing of the fraud case happens soon and requires doing time, maybe. Now that his mental health is quickly unraveling Im starting to think he will not. Not only must he be competent for trial, he must also be competent for the sentencing.
Damn the long delays of nearly 4 years in the documents and interference cases.

Bombshell special counsel filing includes new allegations
https://abcnews.go.com/US/bombshell-special-counsel-filing-includes-new-allegations-trumps/story?id=114409494
Special counsel Jack Smith has outlined new details of former President Donald Trump and his allies' sweeping and "increasingly desperate" efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, in a blockbuster court filing Wednesday aimed at defending Smith's prosecution of Trump following the Supreme Court's July immunity ruling.
Trump intentionally lied to the public, state election officials, and his own vice president in an effort to cling to power after losing the election, while privately describing some of the claims of election fraud as "crazy," prosecutors alleged in the 165-page filing.
"When the defendant lost the 2020 presidential election, he resorted to crimes to try to stay in office," the filing said. "With private co-conspirators, the defendant launched a series of increasingly desperate plans to overturn the legitimate election results in seven states that he had lost."
Sorry- duplicate-Walz did what was needed. Proof? This new ad: Honor Democracy or honor Trump?
Edited to add this is a duplicate.

FYI: I do understand nobody reads these replies, but I still find it therapeutic.
