Michael Beschloss Finally a refreshing change in US politics, where positivity rules the day.

such a stark difference in the presidential/vp candidates…. One side is about hopefulness, positivity, real freedom, and inclusion. While the other side is about divisiveness, negativity, limiting freedom and exclusion. I like the side with hope, joy, freedom and inclusion.

clicked over to cnn briefly to see who was on their panel covering the post rally reaction. Saw Scott Jennings losing it about the “radical left” and quickly turned the channel. Yikes.

So after all the heat from Lawrence O'Donnell last night, The only place I can find the Arizona rally is CSPAN. Both CNN and MSNBC are talking about trump. Some things never change.

this speech by Michelle Obama is EVERYTHING!!!!!! #DNC2024

….and Barack Obama’s speech was also EVERYTHING! Was so riveted.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Phenomenal nomination acceptance speech. HIT on ALL levels. #DNC #DNC2024

When you send your kids to school there is zero chance they will come back to you "a different gender," but there is certainly a chance they won't come back at all. Yet some of y'all are worried about the former while shrugging about the latter.

American schools are back in session. Four fatalities in Georgia; and a teacher in NYC getting hit by shots fired from outside the school. Too many guns.

Two of our elementary schools were just evacuated due to threats. Both of our colleges have gone virtual this week due to threats. The city just canceled our annual CultureFest because of threats. None of this was happening before Trump and Vance opened their mouths.

with all my angst for tomorrow’s election; this song is my theme for today. “I hope tomorrow will bring better you, better me. I know that we’ll show this world we got more we could be” RIP Quincy Jones youtu.be/ZNeC7Tm5M5U?si…

people who say "well trump was president in 2016 you'll live 🤓" do not realize tens of thousands of people died because he downplayed a pandemic and women today are dying because of the 3 supreme court justices he appointed

The media this morning saying Dems need to have a reckoning. No, we don't. We can't be blamed because we expected Americans to be who they always claim they are. Democrats don't have a messaging problem. America has a racism problem.

in this country, you can hype up division and encourage your followers to storm the Capitol; take away bodily autonomy; put targets on politicians and reporters; and…..become president again.

Kamala Harris was the perfect candidate and she ran a beautiful campaign of joy, empathy, and unity. She just happened to run in a nation that is addicted to nihilism, cruelty, and division.

Meanwhile, at multiple rallies, Trump referred to people like me - whether Democrats or his Republican critics - as "scum" and "vermin" and "domestic enemies" who are worse than our foreign enemies. Are we going to talk about Dems offending Trump supporters and ignore that? 3/

Trump’s mastery of disinformation has caused people to vote against their own self-interest. His playbook is the same as Russia’s: promote declinism, demonize and scapegoat, stoke outrage, divide and conquer. 4/4 END

Can we stop with the shock? Trump said he would do all of this, and we warned you about it and offered an experienced and competent leader as an alternative. But you couldn't vote for that woman, so here we are. Buckle up.

I don’t tweet as much as I did since it became “X”; but noticed drastic drop in engagement to my tweets. I used to tweet about journalism, culture and politics. Just set up a BLUE account (ldfbklyn). Same as my IG. On IG, I post scenic pictures and yoga class info.

sad that whenever I see the name of a school trending that I know it’s because there’s been a school shooting. Only in the United States, do we see this happen time after time after time.
