Mike Detmer, a real estate agent and Republican, was one of thousands who gathered for the hourslong "Operation Gridlock" protest outside the Capitol, which was initially billed as a vehicular protest. But Detmer, like many, got out of his car, grinning for a photo with a cluster of about a dozen people. In the background, a nearby truck beared a sign that read "Proud Boys," a Southern Poverty Law Center-designated hate group known for its anti-Muslim and misogynistic rhetoric.
Detmer posted the photo to his Facebook page; it has since been taken down. He could not immediately be reached for comment.

#President Biden Begins Trending After He Hit Grand Slam
Joe Biden delivered a coronavirus speech this afternoon that was authoritative, stately, reasonable, reassuring. Biden knew what he was talking about. He laid out specifics. He’s not even President, and he’s already doing more to provide solutions and leadership in the coronavirus crisis than the zombie in the Oval Office is doing.

It’s been too long since we have heard how a REAL President sounds!
Go Joe
Bernie Sanders Two Opposing Messages On Biden
Which is it Bernie?
"In order to beat Trump, we are going to need the largest voter turnout in the history of this country," said Sanders, I-Vt., on ABC's "This Week" Sunday. "And I don't think you can do that unless you have a message that appeals to the working class and the middle class in this country, who have been ignored too long by the political establishment, of which Joe Biden is part of."

Or maybe we should believe what you said about him the last time you ran for President
“Joe Biden is a man who has devoted his entire life to public service and to the well being of working families and the middle class “
After Kamala dropped out, I remained undecided
I am throwing the full weight of my support behind ....
Vice President Biden
I am secretly hoping he will pick Kamala as his running mate. If not, then I think she would make a great AG.
I love his experience both in foreign and domestic affairs. We sorely need someone who can hit the ground running and repair the damage Trump has done both here and abroad.
I love his humility and his ability to talk on someone else’s level.
I love his emotion and his ability to relate to another persons life story or grief over the loss of a loved one.
I believe he has cross over appeal and can pull over some disenchanted Republicans and will have Coat tails to protect the House and flip the Senate.
TRUMP IS AFRAID OF BIDEN
He risked it all just to try and take him down when he found out he was running.
This is not to say I do not like a few others, I do.
GO JO!!!
Orlando Weekly: Forget Impeachment, Trump Needs To Resign
A little bit louder for the folks in the back: DONALD TRUMP NEEDS TO RESIGN.
The whistleblower’s account shows a White House that’s more Nixonian than Nixon, and an addled, conspiracy-minded president who is a legitimate threat to world stability. There is no other possible clear-eyed reading of the nine-page document. Trump’s defenders—both in the right-wing propaganda machines and in Congress—are either ignorant or they think their followers are.
The account discusses not just the phone call with the new Ukrainian president, in which Trump pressured Volodymyr Zelensky to dredge up a debunked investigation into his political rival while holding up hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid, but that this was part of a much longer-term effort within the administration to gin up something on Joe Biden, pre-dating Zelensky’s election.
...
Add that to everything we learned from the Mueller probe, everything we’ve seen from his three years in office—the incompetence, the cruelty, the corruption, the mendacity—and it all leads to only one conclusion: Every day Donald Trump spends in the White House discredits the office and shames the country.

Trump has run over 2,000 Facebook ads warning of 'invasion'
...
But the El Paso attack on Saturday, and the manifesto's outrage at a purported "Hispanic invasion," have refocused attention on the inflammatory and racist rhetoric in Trump's political ads
...
"I told Mexico, if you don't stop this onslaught, this invasion -- people get angry when I use the word 'invasion' -- people like Nancy Pelosi that honestly they don't know what the hell they're talking about. ... Look, I'm dealing with Mexico right now."
"We have an INVASION! So we are BUILDING THE WALL to STOP IT. Dems will sue us. But we want a SAFE COUNTRY!" many of the advertisements read. "It's CRITICAL that we STOP THE INVASION. Nancy Pelosi and Democrats have not negotiated in good faith to fund a wall at our Southern Border, proving that OBSTRUCTION is far more important to them than YOUR SAFETY."

His words rang hollow Monday, he has lit the match and he damn well knows it!
David Jolly, Ex GOP Rep "Beat Every Single One Of Them" re: GOP
Spot on!
“Think about Las Vegas. They did nothing when 500 people were injured. The Pulse nightclub, 50 killed. The question for the nation was, do we allow suspected terrorists — suspected terrorists — to buy firearms? Republicans did nothing. Parkland, they did nothing. Emanuel AME in South Carolina, nothing. Go to Sandy Hook in Connecticut, nothing. Jewish temple in Pittsburgh, nothing. The Jewish temple in San Diego, nothing. Southerland Springs, Evangelical church in Texas, nothing. Now we have Texas, now we have Ohio in the same weekend and all we get is silence,” he explained.
“I say that because if this is the issue that informs your ideology as a voter, the strength to draw in this moment is to beat Republicans, beat them. Beat every single one of them,” Jolly urged. “Even the safe ones in the House, beat them. Beat them in the Senate. Take back the Senate.”
...
“The last thing I will say, Nicolle, to my former Republican colleagues and Republican voters, if you actually think the Second Amendment was envisioned to protect gun rights of this moment of national tragedy to allow carnage with weapons of war, if you actually think that’s what the Second Amendment protected, you’re fundamentally, constitutionally ignorant,” he argued. “And if you know that’s not what it protects and you continue to do nothing, you’re worse than constitutionally ignorant, you’re a scoundrel.”
