Via Detroit News's Beth LeBlanc:

Wayne Co Deputy Executive Assad Turfe, one of the highest ranking Arab American officials in Wayne Co govt, is speaking at the start of Kamala #Harris’ rally in Ann Arbor.

He said the community needs a leader “who sees us, who understands us” and he says Harris is that leader.

Racists be racists.

#Trump says #MichelleObama made "a big mistake" by getting "nasty" with him

"You know who was nasty to me? Michelle Obama… I always try to be so nice and respectful. She opened up a little bit of a box.. She was nasty. That was a big mistake"

WOW -- Trump fans start a loud "lock her up!" chant directed toward Kamala #Harris.

Michael Bloomberg Gives Harris $50 Million, Report Says

Bloomberg, a prolific Democratic donor, has a reputation for making political donations late in the election cycle.

"Vice President Kamala #Harris’ campaign is seizing on racist comments made by an ally of Donald #Trump this weekend about Puerto Ricans to launch a new digital ad targeting Latino voters that argues they 'deserve better' than what the former president has to offer."

Via Kyle Griffin:

Gov. #Walz in #Wisconsin:

#Trump and #JDVance "know how to manufacture bullshit, and they prove it every single day."

"There's a reason unions across this country have endorsed Kamala #Harris … Donald Trump's a scab."

Elon #Musk "thinks your jobs are a joke. That's why I called him a dipshit and I stand by it."

Via journalist Bill Grueskin:

Unfathomable: Washpost has lost 200,000 subscribers since Bezos pulled the #Harris endorsement. That's 8% of its base in a few days.

Keep in mind its net gain for most of 2024 was only 4,000 (not a typo) subscribers.

Let's talk loudly about the Kamala Harris plan for Puerto Rico instead, and suck the oxygen away from the Trump campaign.

2024 #Election: What the Data Reveals About U.S. #Immigration

Politicians are not giving us the full picture on immigration and what new arrivals have meant for U.S. communities. Our reporting and analysis of #government data explains the real challenges as opposed to the ones being made up to scare you.

The New Effects of Immigration

Recent years have seen a big increase in migrants crossing the U.S. border. But that’s not the most significant change. It’s that many are coming from new countries and with more legal ways to be here.

^ProPublica

Bluff called, Trump:

“#Harris, responding to #Trump's claims about her IQ, said she would take a cognitive test — and "would challenge him to take the same one."

"This is what he has resorted to, and I think he actually is increasingly unstable and unhinged and has resorted to name calling because he actually has no plan for the American people," Harris said in an interview with "CBS Evening News”

Kamala Harris says she'd take a cognitive test; challenges Trump "to take the same one"

Vice President Kamala Harris, responding to former President Donald Trump's claims about her IQ, said she would take a cognitive test — and "would challenge him to take the same one."

This is huge. Jennifer Lopez also just posted VP #Harris’s plan to help Puerto Ricans to her 250 MILLION followers on Instagram — on the same day that #Trump’s ilk insulted Puerto Ricans. This will cost the Trump campaign big time.

Via Yashar Ali:

...two Puerto Rican superstars, Bad Bunny and Ricky Martin, have posted about the 2024 election.

Bad Bunny shared Kamala Harris’s video about Puerto Rico with his 45 million followers.

#TuckerCarlson: it's going to be pretty tough for them.. say.. Kamala #Harris, she got 85 million votes because she's so impressive. As the first is a Samoan Malaysian low I.Q. former California prosecutor ever to be elected president..

Ooops.

Via Politico's Adam Wren:

New: Donald #Trump's two-minute ad that aired during Sunday’s Philadelphia Eagles game and said the country had "gone to hell" during the #Biden and #Harris administration featured an image from a protest during Trump’s presidency, not Biden’s.

Via Chef José Andrés:

This is what #Trump and his people believe about Latinos and Puertoricans…and Haitians and Mexicans and actually about anyone that is not like them…..

TeamKamala will support Latinos and will work hard to be a President for all

“There’s a lot going on. I don’t know if you know this but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico”

Bad Bunny, J. Lo and Ricky Martin have over 315 million followers on Instagram alone. This is the Puerto Rican version of the Avengers joining forces to support Kamala Harris.

Via George Conway:

Seems like the writers could not have scripted a better event for Kamala #Harris.

FYI- Team #Harris rapid response team is having a field day. They can’t believe the political gifts this klan rally is serving them on a silver platter.

Via Meidas Touch:

Just received this comment on a video we posted about the speakers at #Trump’s event today

Via Rupar. Liz Cheney:

Liz #Cheney: "We're seeing a real coalition of women who are pro-life and pro-choice come together to support VP #Harris and that's because we've seen the draconian laws that have ben passed in places like Texas and NC that are preventing women from getting life-saving health care"

2/ This speech.. my god. This speech.

Wonderful, thoughtful, brutal, heartwrenching, deeply heartfelt, you name it.

Please watch.

“Extreme Danger”: #Harris Earns a Stunning #Endorsement Over #Trump
Edith Olmsted

..."“Some of us have lost many family members in #Gaza and #Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the #Palestinian "...

Those who think it’s okay to allow a convicted felon like trump to become a fascist dictator have only lived in a free society.

Those same people will be the first to panic and wonder why nobody stopped trump as they begin to systematically lose their rights and freedoms and standard of living.

In the wake of the #WaPo publisher killing — at the last minute — its endorsement of #Harris, editor-at-large Robert Kagan has resigned from the editorial board, according to NPR. And former executive editor Marty Baron called the decision an act of "cowardice" and "spinelessness."

BOOM. The Philadelphia Inquirer Editorial Board just endorsed Vice President Kamala #Harris for president. This is how it’s done. Thank you, Philadelphia Inquirer.

Polls schmolls, FWIW. Note the obviously MAGA 22%🤦🏻‍♀️:

“Nearly half of Americans say they view #Trump as a fascist

ABC News/Ipsos poll, released Fri, defined a fascist as “a political extremist who seeks to act as a dictator, disregards indiv rights & threatens or uses force against their opponents.” When asked who exhibits those behaviors, 49% of registered voters identified Trump, 22% said the same of #Harris” thehill.com/homenews/campaign/…

Via Ian Sams:

Interesting nuggets in NYT/Siena:

#Harris cut #Trump’s lead on the economy **in half** since last month

Among the 15% of voters still not fully decided, Harris is up by 10. Two weeks ago, Trump led them by 1.

Late breakers are swinging her way - same we saw in Emerson last week

Via Dan Pfeiffer:

This is a smart way to draw attention to what access to abortion could look like across America if #Trump wins.

It is not a play to win #Texas. And the fact that people are reacting this way shows that its a great way to get attention -- the most valuable resource at this stage

Sam Stein:

#Harris will head to TEXAS on Friday. Will campaign with Allred. Will focus on #abortion policy

What the Justice Department could look like under #Harris presidency

“4 sources familiar w Harris campaign’s discussions told NBC News that there are three main names under consideration: North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper, who was on Harris' vice presidential short list; former Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta, who served as the No. 3 official at the Justice Department until earlier this year; and U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Damian Williams” nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elec…

What the Justice Department could look like under a Kamala Harris presidency

Kamala Harris’ team is quietly considering potential nominees for attorney general to lead the Justice Department if she beats Donald Trump in the 2024 election.
