So distraught
Greetings, fellow Dot Calm Readers, Freedom Fighters, and Truth Crusaders!
I cannot believe we as a nation are in this situation.
I can't believe that it's as close as it is between Hillary and the hateful fucking moron bully freeloader abuser with the orange face anus.
How st00pit are we?!??
Yesterday, I read that the Green Party came out in support of Donald Trump? Et tu, Greens? You were my next stop after this election--I was intent on saving the planet first so that it would still be around so I could begin voting my conscience if the Democrats didn't deliver.
Thanks for letting me know that the Democratic Party is the only choice there is. I'll make it work from here, thanks, since there is nowhere else to go.
Alas, the Green Party has proven itself unwilling or incapable to understand the reality under its nose. The Green Party has proven itself to be w-a-y farther to the right than the Democratic Party ever was at its worst. The Green Party has proven itself to hate women, Blacks, Latinos, Muslims, LGBTQ+, veterans, disabled people, poor people, working people, equality, opportunity, education, science, green energy, fair taxation, and global cooperation and friendship. The Green Party wants our president to be a criminal con-man, bully, bigot, misogynist, abuser, anti-American, traitorous, freeloading, entitled dictator-wannabe who neither understands nor values the Constitution and who despises democracy--who's all in it for his own wallet and ego and who'd rather suck Putin's dick than give half of a fair shake to his own sitting President. Everything and everyone I value and stand for, the Green Party hates and thinks is crap.
Just read that last paragraph and let it soak in for a minute. I'll wait.
I guess I shouldn't be too surprised from a bunch of anti-vaxxers, but cheez...I guess all that business of showing up at the DAPL protests was just bullshit, hunh? - Because you surely don't think for a moment that Donald Trump would pursue clean energy or anything even remotely resembling progressive policy. No sane person who's been paying attention would. So, Greens, either you're not sane or you're not paying attention. Either way, you're as dangerous as Donald Trump and are no longer worthy of my support. You've betrayed everything you ever claimed to stand for.
Traitorous assholes.
And then there's James Comey. It's looking like he is going to continue playing favorites against Hillary Clinton by ignoring clear evidence of Donald Trump's ties to Russia--and I'm not talking the conspiracy crap, either, although I'd bet a year's salary that Donald Trump and his supporters--including the Green Party--are most definitely Putin's useful idiots.
And then there are my Black sisters and brothers. My bestie for the past 36 years is Black. She is the most angelic, intelligent, talented, funny person I've ever met in my life. She is exemplary. I just adore her. Not that long ago, she told me that she'd gone into a store in her hometown where she's been shopping her whole life, and the fuckers called security because a dreaded Black person walked in. The thought of how the police would treat her if they pulled her over scares me to death. The thought of how Donald Trump and his supporters, including the Green Party, would treat her is no less horrifying. Donald Trump called a Black supporter a thug and ejected him from a recent rally. Donald Trump's policies and rhetoric elicited support from David Duke of KKK fame--he's thuh-rilled to have his racist ideas gaining (regaining?) acceptance out in the open. Donald Trump wants to use racial profiling to "stop and frisk" (i.e., hunt down and imprison) more Blacks just for being Black. How can ANY Black person NOT run screaming to the polls to elect Hillary--in their own best interests if not in ours?
I don't even want to talk about women voting for Donald Trump. We all know that, after all the centuries of abuse and degradation institutionalized by the Christian religion as crystalized in the Republican Party, these women have no self-respect. If they did, they'd be proud to stand on their own feet, free from feeling like they have to kiss men's asses for "protection" (that they never get) and free from feeling reduced to their body parts--mere objects that exist solely for the pleasure of men.
I can't even.
I just can't believe we're in this situation. I can't believe that Donald Trump is even remotely still in contention for the White House. I am frustrated, angry, distraught, distressed, and pissed as hell at my countrymen and women who support Donald Trump.
I mean, I understand being the victim of bad ideas and thinking that something that doesn't exist is going to swoop down from the clouds and save your ass and all that, but WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK ARE YOU EVEN THINKING?!??!??
On the other hand...how about them Cubs?

A word from POLITICO
CNN Dumped Donna Brazile. It Should Keep Going.
...Hey, corporate media--dump the insiders, or we'll dump you.
What Trump's Tax Returns Could Tell Us About His Dealings with Russia
...STOP THE ELECTION UNTIL WE SEE TRUMP'S TAX RETURNS! WE NEED TO KNOW BEFORE WE CAN VOTE!!!!!
Why I'll Defend Anyone Trump Sues for Speaking Freely
...The only way to stop Donald "bullying LOSER" Trump is to rub his nose in it. BAD dog!!!
The GOP's Breakdown Is Only Just Beginning
...Something is going to come out of it all. Damn. I was hoping they'd all just go the fuck away. Maybe we can throw them Texas and let them rename it "Jesusland" and set up their pweshush theocratic dictatorship there under Donald "as fraudulently Christian as he is fraudulently a businessman" Trump.
How The Election Could Get Even Crazier on November 9
...Don't read this before bedtime--it will give you nightmares.
A word from FiveThirtyEight
Election Update: Yes, Donald Trump Has A Path To Victory
...Smh, FML. Thanks, Comey--go to hell. In short, Trump is still the underdog but no longer a longshot. Holy fucking crap. Have we lost our everlovin' MINDS?!??!?? Fortunately, Hillary is still on track to win. If only she wins...and wins BIG. I can't fucking believe this is even this close.
Trump's Chance Of Victory Has Doubled In The Last Two Weeks
...FML. He really needs to be trounced so badly he never considers another political run ever again--and nor do any of the Trumpist wannabes. America, wake up--we need to send these shitstains a message that their intolerance, abuse, bullying, etc. are not welcome here.
Most Voters Haven't Changed Their Minds All Year
...So, before you panic about the two stories linked above, remember that Hillary isn't really losing ground--she's not losing voters. It's just that a lot of Republicans have gone from undecided to backing Trump after all.
Iowa Shootings Add To Toll In Deadly Year For Police Officers
...Not to minimize the awfulness, but to give a little perspective: far, far fewer police officers have been ambushed and shot than police have killed Blacks and Native Americans this year. I wholeheartedly disagree with the actions of the cop hunters and look forward to their coming to justice, but let's keep it real: isn't it possible that this might be a case of actions having consequences?
The Early Vote In Nevada Suggests Clinton Might Beat Her Polls There
...Fingers crossed.
Immigrants Are Keeping America Young — And The Economy Growing
...No wonder all the crotchety old white men who imbibe FUX Noise and lurve Donald Trump are pissed!
A word from Vox
Republicans and Russian hackers have made Hillary Clinton the most transparent candidate in history
...Lolololololol! And it's the truth, too! Don't believe me? Then g'head and show me Donald Trump's tax returns for the past 38 years. And his full medical records. I'll wait.
Just imagine what the FBI saga would look like under a vengeful President Trump
...I hates ta say it, but James Comey has turned the FBI into yet another government agency that clearly cannot be trusted. Unfortunately, the agency has a long history of underhanded dealings. Just ask Martin Luther King, Jr., or anyone else "Jedgar" took a dislike to.
Trump supporters are trying to trick people into voting by text. (You can't vote by text.)
...They probably think everyone else is as stupid as they are!
Forget conspiracy theories. This is why Trump's Russian connection is actually a problem.
...If only James Comey would do his fucking job. Oh yeah, that's right--he could interfere with the election if he did that!
The KKK's official newspaper is gushing about Donald Trump's message
...Please, friends--is Donald Trump really what you want for president? Is he really the best candidate for Blacks, for example?
A Republican just accidentally made Hillary Clinton's best closing argument
...Scott Walker promises us four more years of O'Bama if Hillary gets in. YES, PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!!!
Donald Trump used a dubious loophole to make millions in taxable income disappear
...Can you say "freeloading bastard"? I gnu yew could!
That explosive story about Trump's secret server for talking to Russia doesn't add up
...Having a short attention span day? Keith Olbermann gives a break-down of which stories stick to the wall and which don't in todaze m00bies. However, Randi Rhodes mentions a veteran U.S. spy who claims evidence that Trump's server did (does?) communicate with Russian banks. Friends, I totally buy that because who else is gonna loan Donald "I love debt. I'm the king of debt" Trump an everlovin' penny? What do you think Putin wants from Trump in return for loaning him money? AlterNet seems to think that the evidence is credible, and so does Mother Jones's David Corn, who was interviewed on MSNBC. Hm.
Trump left something out of his Obamacare speech — the 21 million his plan leaves uninsured
...It would be a big FU to a lot of his supporters, who hate Obamacare but who would be worse off with nothing.
Hostility toward women is one of the strongest predictors of Trump support
...Um, I coulda toldja that!
I thought America was becoming a better place for rape survivors. Then Trump came along.
...Not just him but his supporters do not believe that women are full-fledged humans with the right to bodily autonomy, free from implicit and explicit demands to remain available for some man's pleasure, with or without said woman's consent. Just ask the evangelicals, who see women as annoying talking livestock good only for incubating sons and doing menial labor around the house, barefoot and pregnant.
The pile of leaks about Donald Trump and Russia, explained
...Explains a lot about his Russia "policy"
Leaked audio: Republican senator in key race joked about Hillary Clinton being shot
...Here's another deplorable--looks like we're gonna need a bigger basket.
No, "Blacks for Trump" isn't the work of white supporters faking diversity. It's worse.
...We're talking "crazy cult bigger basket" worse. Ugh.
Mississippi black church burned, vandalized with "Vote Trump" just days before election
...It was burned, too. But they don't know yet whether the fire was arson and/or whether it was done by the same Trump supporter vandals who defaced the side of the building.
********************************************
Someone posted this on CADOF...
Clearly, I'm not the only one who's pissed...
No, friend...
We will ALL get what THEY deserve
even though we DON'T deserve it!!!!!
I'd better get my passport in order
in case I need to set up dual citizenship somewhere.
I can't stand the thought of being stuck here
without a safety net if Trump gets in.
...Srsly, FUCK THAT.

From SumOfUs--Stop the AT&T merger with Time Warner
AT&T is poised to buy Time Warner for $85 billion. If we let this happen, it will create a single, gargantuan Internet, TV and media monopoly.
That means higher prices, less choice, and even worse service.
This consolidation of power will be a total disaster for internet and TV users. Apart from paying more for a whole lot less, it could also lead to more predatory practices -- just last week AT&T was caught spying on Americans for profit.
We know we can stop it. After all, we did it the last time Big Telecom tried to put all the media power and profit in just a few hands -- when tens of thousands of SumOfUs supporters helped stop the Comcast-Time Warner merger.
Can you help do it again? There is no time to spare – we need to send a message today.
Tell regulators to stop the AT&T and Time Warner monster merger.
AT&T is the biggest provider of pay TV and Time Warner owns CNN, HBO and Warner Bros. Any of Time Warner’s competitors will find it suddenly a whole lot harder to get their content across AT&T’s massive wireless and broadband networks.
We've fought hard to stop Internet slow lanes in the past and there's no way we're going to let AT&T throttle any competing content provider while letting Time Warner products fly on through.
It will also make it a whole lot easier for AT&T to collect data from its consumers. AT&T was busted in 2013 for tracking every call, text or other communication going through its network since 1987 -- a database in the trillions bigger than anything the NSA has on Americans. And a recent investigation found that AT&T is not only handing over this information to law enforcement when it doesn't have to, it's profiting from our private data by selling its services to federal agencies.
This merger is bad for our privacy, bad for our pocketbooks and definitely bad for the Internet. Tell the regulators to stop it.
SumOfUs has been fighting for free speech and freedom of information and against disastrous corporate mergers since our inception. Our work for Net Neutrality helped keep the Internet open and accessible to dissenting voices and helped preserve the free exchange of information and ideas. Currently, we are doing all we can to stop the Monsanto and Bayer mega-merger that would put the control our food system to one giant corporation. Please take action now to stop another dangerous merger between AT&T and Time Warner.
Thanks for all that you do,
Nicole, Toni, Angus, and the rest of the SumOfUs team

For the first time in years, the security and integrity of Maricopa County, Arizona elections will not be safeguarded by nonpartisan election monitors.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that it won't send federal election monitors to Maricopa County, citing the 2013 Supreme Court Shelby County v. Holder decision that gutted important provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
In Maricopa County, AZ no DOJ monitors means Sheriff Arpaio -- a Trump supporter who is currently under investigation for racial profiling and running for re-election -- is in charge of guarding the ballots. With more than 1.4 million votes at risk, we cannot let him do it unwatched.
Tell the Dept. of Justice: Don't leave voters at the mercy of Sheriff Arpaio. Send federal election monitors to Arizona on Election Day.
Arizona was one of the nine states that the Supreme Court decision freed from getting advance approval for changes in voting procedures. And in the first presidential election since, Maricopa County, a heavy Latino area, has been plagued with electoral malfeasance:
- In March during the presidential primary, officials reduced the number of polling places by 70 percent. Voter lines were several hours long.
- Less than a month later, Maricopa County printed 2 million ballots with the wrong Spanish-language description for Prop 123. Taxpayers spent $400,000 to correct the mistake.
- Just weeks ago, the wrong polling address was printed on election materials mailed out to roughly 3,500 voters in two Tempe precincts with high Democratic party registration. To date, officials aren't planning to mail corrections, just pledged to have the correct polling site on future materials.
Tell the Dept. of Justice: Don't leave voters at the mercy of Sheriff Arpaio. Send federal election monitors to Arizona on Election Day.
The Shelby ruling did not specifically address the DOJ's authority to send observers inside polling places. But the Justice Department is using the broadest interpretation of the ruling -- believing that they are prohibited from sending observers into jurisdictions unless there is already a relevant court order regarding voting practices.
Some legal scholars question the Dept. of Justice's interpretation, including Derek T. Muller, a conservative scholar on election law at Pepperdine University School of Law. Muller said he believed that the Justice Department could legally send observers to jurisdictions not specifically covered by court orders.
Considering what is at stake in this election both nationally and locally, Maricopa County voters deserve to know that their vote will be protected against intimidation, discrimination or obstruction. Join local activists in calling on the Dept. of Justice to protect democracy and not leave this election in the hands of Sheriff Arpaio.
Tell the Dept. of Justice: Send federal election monitors to Arizona on Election Day.
Keep fighting,

From Maryland PIRG--Don't let the EPA shirk reviewing Round-up
Is the Environmental Protection Agency giving in to Big Ag and Monsanto?
The EPA just postponed four days of hearings that would’ve reviewed whether glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup, causes cancer.
Now, we’re hearing that the delay could be because a trade group for the chemical industry took exception to some of the scientists who were to serve on the EPA panel -- scientists considered international experts with decades of experience to their names.1
The EPA may have given up this time, but we can’t let them yield any further to industry pressure. Make sure they reschedule the hearings as soon as possible.
The trade group even went so far as to say that “any person who has publicly expressed an opinion regarding the carcinogenicity of glyphosate” should be kept off the panel.2
Enough is enough.
The EPA needs to stand up to Monsanto and their Big Ag allies, and reschedule these hearings, now.
Sign our petition to the EPA.
These hearings are happening at a critical moment.
The chemicals in Monsanto's Roundup have been linked to serious health risks, including cancer and reproductive problems.3 Now they're showing up in our rivers and in our food supply.4,5
With each day that passes without these hearings being rescheduled, we subject more and more of our rivers, land, wildlife and bodies to these chemicals.
We can’t wait another day to ban Monsanto’s Roundup. Take action, now.
Thank you,
Emily Scarr

From SumOfUs--Bee scientist under gag order...help!
When your whole career is at risk because your research threatens corporate profits, can you imagine how comforting it is to know that there are so many people out there, that have never even met you, who care about you?
I'm hoping you can join other SumOfUs members today to support Dr. Jonathan Lundgren as we keep fighting to save our bees together. Believe me, every single dollar is noticed and sends an incredibly powerful message of support.
Can you donate today to fight back against bee censorship?
Thanks for all that you do,

| As a starring character on “West Wing,” I knew its storylines could stretch political reality a bit. But looking back, the most scripted part was Republicans acting like rational lawmakers. With Mitch McConnell at the helm, the Senate GOP’s dramatic episodes are now unprecedented. From historic obstruction of the Supreme Court to threatening government shutdowns in hopes of defunding Planned Parenthood’s lifesaving services. Worst of all, they’ve stood with a rodeo clown like Donald Trump over and over again despite his racism, xenophobia, and hostility towards women. In just seven days, this country can declare we’ve had enough, but I need your help to make sure that happens. Will you stand with me and the DSCC today for Democratic victory this November? Josh Lyman’s polling savvy stuck with me and I’m telling you the stakes of the Senate couldn’t be higher as Republicans lead swing states with razor-thin margins. Thanks to billionaire special interests, they’ve yet to face the consequences of their moral bankruptcy. But the Democratic grassroots can change that by getting loud enough $1 at a time. When all of us chip in, we can defeat Republicans, their dark money allies, and retake the Senate. Please join me and the DSCC today to elect Democrats coast-to-coast: If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Pitch in $35 IMMEDIATELY >> Pitch in $50 IMMEDIATELY >> Pitch in $75 IMMEDIATELY >> Pitch in $100 IMMEDIATELY >> Pitch in $150 IMMEDIATELY >> Or donate another amount. Thank you, Bradley Whitford |

But if you were going to ever give, or give again, to Doug's campaign to defeat Darrell Issa, now would be the best time. It allows him to put those resources to work because people are voting right now.

He did not let some uneducated, ignorant

Secular Talk on James Comey's disgusting double standard in his dealings with Trump and Clinton. Kyle bitches about Democrats' red-baiting, but our own intelligence agencies confirmed that it was Russia doing the hacking. Please, Kyle, do your homework--even Chris Wallace confirmed Hillary's statement to that effect during the third debate. Even so, I don't fucking care if Hillary and the Dems are handing out the nuclear codes like candy--I'LL NEVER VOTE FOR THE ORANGE ASSHOLE, m'kay? Speaking of Wiener's e-mails, most of the ~650,000 e-mails are Wiener's; only some 10,000 relate to Huma Abedin.
Keith Olbermann: the e-mail debacle is worse than Watergate but for totally different reasons than Donald Trump pretends
Keith Olbermann asks if Donald Trump, Putin's useful idiot, is a Russian agent
MSNBC discusses MoJo's article on Russia grooming Trump. The Washington Examiner’s Susan Ferrechio does a great job of destroying her own credibility by being defensive and not letting David Corn speak by interrupting and shouting him down. Thanks for showing us so clearly whom to believe, Susan.
Here's Randi Rhodes's take on Trump's Putin ties and James Comey leaving us all in the dark. I'm sorry, Randi, my love, but I am seriously beginning to doubt Comey's integrity.
The Young Turks: FUX Noise, the Trump campaign, and the rest of the Republicans are doing their happy dance because "fewer Black people are voting." Could it be because they're being fucking eliminated off the voter rolls and intimidated and otherwise kept from voting through coordinated voter suppression? ...Naaaaah. FML.
The Young Turks: Donald Trump uses his campaign donations to line his own pockets because of course he does!
Jerry Springer makes so many good points against Donald Trump that I wish I could shake Springer's hand. Srsly, even my Tea Party Christian friend found himself the best surgeon in the area when he needed his shoulder fixed--what makes him and his ilk think that the best person to run the country, a complex job to say the least, is the one who doesn't know dick about dick?
I'm with Bill Maher--FUCK false equivalencies!!!!!
Hey, that's ok, Green Party--Donald Trump doesn't even believe in global warming, so it can never harm you...you're safe now! Aren't you glad you just don't do reality any more? Why, it's just like deciding to believe that cops don't exist if you feel like robbing a bank!
Oh, but Donald Trump and my Tea Party Christian friend say that oil pipelines are the safest things in the WORLD...and they wouldn't lie and they can't be wrong, now would they? Right, Green Party? You gotta come out and support your boi on this one!
Donald Trump thinks we have too much free speech--be afraid...be VERY afraid!
Donald "feckless gormless LOSER" Trump has no idea what Obamacare is or how it works. He doesn't even know what his own organization's health care benefit arrangements are. Idiot.
The Young Turks: CNN fires Donna Brazile for leaking debate questions to Hillary. Good. Way to delegitimize the debates for Hillary and throw Donald Trump red meat, Donna! Just because you thot you weren't gonna get caught doesn't make it right, duh. Time to toss the insiders and get back to honest-to-goodness investigative reporting, the Fairness Doctrine, and accuracy in the media. We need to penalize the shit out of any media source NOT following good practices because their consistent misinformation for the past thirty years has given us Donald LOSER Trump!
The Young Turks: just how many Trump supporters are Nazis? This is the video with his alt-right supporters screaming "JEW-S-A!" As Cenk says, why don't CNN or the rest of commercial corporate media just go interview Trump supporters to see which ones fit in the basket of deplorables and which ones are just pissed off that the rich and powerful, like Donald Trump, have rigged the system against them? Just stick a microphone in their faces, Cenk says--they'll be glad to give you a piece of their minds.
Here's Randi Rhodes's take on "JEW-S-A" plus other great information--don't miss this video! If Donald Trump loses, how much ya wanna bet he stiffs all his surrogates because he doesn't like the results? That's exactly what he did to his pollster--stiffed 'em nearly a million bux because he didn't like the poll numbers they gave him! He must've been expecting the results to come back at 100%, just like in North Korea. No wonder evangelicals lurve Donald Trump--they all believe that reality is whatever you wish it were, regardless of what it actually is!
MSNBC: the polls are consistent, despite negative news cycles about Donald Trump or Hillary. I confess, that's comforting. Whew. Michael Moore shares his thinking--including confirming that Donald Trump is an unabashed anarchist. I think it-snot just Trump but ALL of the Republicans who are unabashed anarchists. Srsly, why the FUCK do you want to turn over THE GOVERNMENT to ANARCHISTS?!??!?? That's like turning over your car for maintenance to the anti-car luddites who don't think anyone should ever drive EVAR and who actively DESTROY cars to get them off the road. Whiskey tango, folks?!
MSNBC interviewed Libertarian Veep candidate Bill Weld, who fears for the country if Trump gets in but who refers to Hillary as a businesslike person of high moral standing who's also very honest--and he's worked with her for 40 years, so I like to think he'd know. Weld's opinion of Hillary's honesty is certainly borne out by PolitiFact.
Funny! Will Ferrell as DUHbya speaks about Donsie Wonsie
And don't forget these other great Trump lines to make the ladies lurve him:
“Putting a wife to work is a very dangerous thing.”
“When I come home and dinner’s not ready, I go through the roof.”
“A person who’s flat-chested is very hard to be a 10.”
“She ate like a pig.”
And, of course..."Grab them by the pussy."
If Donald Trump gets in, we will be the ungoodest nation on the planet. Bigly.
