Remember when Democratic Senatorial candidates ran against Obama in 2014? 

We saw how that turned out.

Mayor Adams wants to destroy the 1907 landmarked Tony Dapalito Recreation Center on Seventh Ave. South and Carmine Street. Obviously a developer friend/funder of the Mayor wants to put up a condo tower there.

After being closed for four years during which its structural problems could somehow not be fixed, Adams is reaching into the DeBlasio playbook. The ex-mayor demolished the landmarked houses on Eighth Avenue and 14^th St. by claiming irreperable structural problems; the Landmarks “Preservation” Commission was in on the scam, holding in its possession a report that showed the structural issues were solveable.

And so now Adams is insisting that the recreation center–which offers membership at far lower prices than private gyms–cannot be fixed (no will, no way, right?) and announcing peremptorily that the designated lndmark must be torn down.

Community Board 2 is holding a public hearing on Thursday at 6:30 p.m.–go to Village Preservation.org and register to speak.

but fortunately for them, they have Lester Holt to do their dirty work of misdirection for them.

Somehow it falls to Biden–so says Holt– to all but assume responsibility for the latest shooting, because he has the temerity to tell the truth about Trump, the GOP, and their Project 2025 manifesto.

Yes, Trump is going to end democracy if he’s elected again. Yes, President Biden should be sounding dthe alarm every chance he gets.

Let’s face it: if Biden has been shot at, Trump and his cult would have been making jokes about it, the way the did when Paul Pelosi was savagely attacked by a crazed MAGA.

The corporate media somehow believes it can pull the same neutralize-the-Dems tricks that have been normalized over the years and that this situation now is not unprecedented and existential.

Led by disturbed, treasonous fascists Musk and Carlson, they know that Trump wouldn’t be able to serve a full term.

As reported by Axios.

that rhe Republic Convention is staging ground for ramped-up attacks on any media outlet that recognizes the existence of facts.

traitorously attempting to undermine our judicial system, while Judge Cannon kicks off the GOP convention with her putrid, utterly lawless dismissal of the stolen documents case. That dismissal will be reversed; Canon should be taken off the case, impeached, and made to stand trial alongside Trump.

But of course it’s the Democrats who must pause their campaign, even as the Republicans ratchet up theirs.

Decency can’t be a one-way street. We saw that with Obama. It becomes then enabling and ultimately collusion.

Democrats should be ecstatic. Maybe this will give the lift that the party defeatists need.

He’s the biggest phony in MAGA-land, and that’s really saying something.

He accurately said that  Trump “might be America’s Hitler” until he felt that the Fourth Reich was just the ticket to get himself promoted to undeserved power and prominence.

“Populist”—my ass. He got elected as the sugar baby of Fascist elitist billionaire Peter Thiele.

And, of course, Vance is utterly without morality–that’s a pre-requisite–as his attempt to blame Biden for the shooting demonstrates.

This is the most flawed, compromised GOP ticket in history–the Dems need to tumble to that and get off their fainting couches.

Trump’s pick demonstrates how addled he is, and how he he responds only to how far down into the depths of traitorous degradation his flunkeys are willing to go.

into accepting their sham narrative about a reformed Trump, and they are trying to intimidate the Dems into silence about who Trump actually is.

In the meantime, Trump surrogates respond to the shooting by fomenting defamatory narratives about the Dems.

This whipsaw is how Fascism works.

Biden needs to take the gloves back off very soon.
