“There are really serious implications for LGBTQ communities in states where we’re seeing more severe restrictions from the legislative side. It also emboldens folks to go out and harass LGBTQ people, trans and gender non-conforming people within their own communities.”

In my latest for Austin Free Press, I took #GLAAD data on hate incidents and looked at how bigotry has manifested in Central #Texas. Incidents have included assault, protests, and even a murder. https://austinfreepress.org/legislating-intolerance-anti-lgbtq-legislation-tied-to-massive-rise-in-hate-incidents/

It's polling day in the US! 🗳️

We've heard the queues over there can get pretty long, so remember to take a snack and some water when you head out to the polls.

Take time to understand what you are voting for. This is an important moment for yourself, your family, and the people in your life.

You can keep up with discussion in the @uspolitics Feed or stay up to date on all things Harris in the @KamalaHarrisWin Group.

At least for the next 12 hours...or overnight here in Australia 🤣🤣

"I don’t think people appreciate the extent to which Arab and Muslims Americans are going to be scapegoated in the event of a Trump victory by liberals who think the extermination of Palestinians is just a policy disagreement."

Results of US election are in already.


No need to vote or count the votes.

Just pick one of the servants of Netanyahu and his fascist gang.

It features the @KamalaHarrisWin Group alongside experts and discussion from across the web of social networks.

We'll be moderating our US Politics Feed and Community closely over the next few days.

If you have a chance to vote today and choose not to, remember that conservatives are counting on that category of apathy.

Please disappoint them.

Q. will abortion prove to be the most important issue for wavering voters in America today?

We'll find out in the next 48hrs but the widening gap between those who think abortion should be legal in all/most cases & those who don't may drive sufficiently more people to the polls to help Harris win.... or perhaps it will not; we'll find out soon.

#USPol #abortion #health
Chart: A growing share of Americans think abortion should be legal. % of US adults who say aburtion should be legal in all/most cases, and those who think it should be illegal in all/most cases.

Shows those who think it should be legal in the majority since 1995 with the gap narrowing to almost equal in 2009, but widening since with the current figure (after Roe vs. Wade overturned) of over 60% for legal & just under 40% for illegal in all/most cases


If you're not worried enough by tomorrow's election, then Jan-Werner Muller (PrincetonU) has a story to tell you about a slow motion coup in America which doesn't sound as implausible as it might of a decade ago....

In 24-36 hours time, we'll find out if this is the trajectory the Republicans are on.... and 'since Trump has everything to lose (including his freedom, given the charges still pending), there’s every reason to think that he’ll try everything'!

According to the #NZZ, "Kamala Harris would be a weak president, and Donald Trump a security risk".

According to everyone else, #bothsidesism is weak #reporting, and false balance is journalistic malpractice 🤦

Hi all, it's me, An Old. Quick election reminders:

- If you are in line before the polls officially close, STAY IN LINE. You are entitled to cast your vote.
- DO NOT TRUST calls/texts/posts/TikToks from now until Weds. Deepfakes will be rampant.

Classic scams:
"your voting location has moved"
"your group votes on Weds" <- old Jim Crow shit
"have your payment ready" <- poll taxes are illegal

Vote! No later than Tuesday, even by mail! Demand a provisional ballot if anything goes wrong!

Donald Trump has lost his mind


During his rally last night, 96 hours before Election Day, Trump simulated performing a sex act on a microphone stand.

The whole mainstream media has declared a blackout. They refuse to report it.

Can you imagine what would have happened if Kamala Harris had done this?

How Is This Thing Close? Media Ownership By A Wealthy Few Is Terrible For Democracy

This is quite something! Trump's discount Goebbels, Stephen Miller, is the most vile xenophobe in America #Nazi

His own former rabbi spoke out against him and #Trump in his High Holy Days sermon while Trump was in office

And just endorsed #Harris because she embodies the #Jewish values of lovingkindness and respect for law tempered by kindness #Election2024 #uspol

Musical #satire: " Oct 1, 2024
Parody Project's very first post, from 2017. It is somewhat disturbing that six years later it is still completely relevant and accurate, with the possible exception that Fox isn't quite as enthusiastic about him after their multi-million dollar fine. One would have hoped that by now it would be obsolete. Art Garfunkel played by Don Caron; Paul Simon played by Linda Gower."

American defense official confirms US sending several destroyers, along with new fighter aircraft, B-52 strategic bombers & refueling tankers to the Middle East, in the coming days.


There are a lot of news about them, but most major news seems to be ignoring it.

It's very possible that Israel attacks tomorrow during US election, because most people won't care about international news when they are focused on the domestic circus.

More news can be found when searching for B-52 online

I swear, if I hear one more 'vote to save democracy' from another liberal..

Folks, you literally witnessed the DNC and corporate media rig the 2016 and 2020 primaries against the most popular candidate running, by far.

Your party couldn't care less about democracy.

The "Liberal" Swedish Dagens Nyheter Editor: #Trump is a president for #US, #Harris is going to be the president of the whole world!

I am truly going to vomit.

The propaganda and extent of BS on Swedish media covering the US election have reached a new level of disgusting low. Swedes have always had inferiority complex towards Americans, but ever since the election of Obama, it has reached a ridiculous not-so-funny embarrassing level.

A pro-life senior pastor of a Baptist megachurch in Texas came out in support of Vice President Kamala Harris in a new op-ed over the weekend. Wm. Dwight McKissic Sr., the senior pastor for a reported 3,000 congregants at Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington, condemned former President Donald Trump’s character and his conduct during the Jan. 6 Capitol riots.

The Shot 👇
(language warning)

The depravity of a society thoroughly brainwashed in their supremacy and religious stature as the chosen ones.
The primitive instincts of this society are fully on display - the more blood and suffering they see the more they crave. It’s literally ingrained in Israeli society.
And all those countries, and their media supporting them are part of it

Today is Kamala's last day to promise an arms embargo on #Israel and greatly increase her chances of winning.

If she doesn't, then that tells you all you need to know about her true loyalties.

I think Lozza Fox does not understand something. 🤣
Remind me again when Harris was POTUS ????

Screenshot of a comment posted by  LozzaFox on his timeline on X
If Donald Trump was going to destroy America, he would have done it in his first term.
If Kamala Harris was going to help America , she would have done it in her first term.


Katy Perry will apparently make an appearance at a Kamala Harris rally today.

Because images of dead Palestinians that the government Harris is already a part of are helping to produce just wouldn't be as entertaining.

The politics of misdirection.

For those asking WTF the UN is or isn't doing...

The UN was designed by the victors of ww2 for their own purposes, eg, the US uses its veto to protect Israel.

The victors use the UN to protect their white-supremacist allies & to punish the rest - via the ICC or "International Caucasian Court".

The UN has no police force, & the US has "The Hague Invasion Act" ⬇️

The world needs a new democratic UN, not one dominated by imperialists & their client states.

Ruchir Sharma (Rockefeller Int/FT) argues:

'US growth is a mirage for most Americans, driven by rising wealth & discretionary spending among the richest consumers & distorted by growing profits for the biggest corporations. Times look good but this growth is lopsided, brittle & heavily dependent on spending & borrowing by the government, which is typically the lender of last resort'.

When mainstream commentators agree with long-term left critiques, then you know a crisis is coming!
