Is there a Realistic way to Remove Big Money from Politics?

[hypnoscribbler]

Here's Bernie Sanders answer to the question of how someone can vote for Kamala Harris while disagreeing with her position on the war:

TL;DW:

Harris supports an immediate cease-fire, the release of hostages and a surge of humanitarian aid into Gaza. Trump and his cronies see Netanyahu and his government as right-wing allies, and have encouraged Netanyahu (who would prefer Trump to win) to continue the war in Gaza. Sanders says he and Harris will work together to change US policy towards Israel, pushing for an end to settler attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank, and the rebuilding of Gaza for Palestinians.

Gaza is an important issue, but allowing Trump to become president will harm women and minorities in America, undoing decades of progres; entrench the power of the rich and tilt the economy even further against ordinary Americans, and basically condemn us to unchecked global warming.

To all the little girls watching...never doubt that you are valuable and powerful & deserving of every chance & opportunity in the world. - Hillary Rodham Clinton, in the speech that destroyed us all in 2016.

It was the honor of my life to accept our party's nomination for president. And nearly 66 million Americans voted for a future where there are no ceilings on our dreams. And afterward, we refused to give up on America ... well my friends, the future is here. [...]

On the other side of that glass ceiling is Kamala Harris raising her hand and taking the oath of office as the 47th president ... this is when we break through ... let's go win it. - Hillary Rodham Clinton, DNC speech 2024.

which US presidential election candidate are you

To all the people in the US who are eligible to vote but are still refusing to:

Here is a Call To Action from Senator Bernie Sanders, published October 28th 2024, which addresses the Gaza genocide (included inside another tumblr post which has a transcript):

Here is an unfinished list reminding us of a lot of shit Tr*mp ruined during and leading up to his first term:

Here is a masterlist of Gazans that we won't be able to prioritize helping if Tr*mp wins because we'll have to focus on covering our own heads:

And here's a post that summarizes why Harris's team is aiming at Right-leaning voters (which is a good thing, because why wouldn't we want people regardless of leaning voting for one candidate to tip the scales?) better than I can right now, namely the last reblog:

Now, please, do tell me, this isn't a rhetorical question:

What further convincing do you need?

idk I don't really understand the stance of "I'm tired of voting for the lesser of two evils, so I'm just not going to vote." would you rather have the greater of two evils, then? we're not voting for the lesser evil because we just love evil so dang much, it's because between a lesser evil and a greater evil, there is a significant difference. and we only get one of the two. there is no third option.

I was thinking, (shocker) that the Jack Smith brief wasn’t getting much attention on legacy news & that the “normies” & non political junkie voters were being done a grave disservice. I wrote to CNN ABC NBC CBS ect. to petition them to do more extensive coverage on the filing. I’m just one guy. Together we are a united front against tyranny. If we all wrote to these news organizations asking for more coverage perhaps that may help sway some minds to the atrocities that Trump & his accolades perpetuated against us, the American people, our Constitution, and our nation as a whole. I ask my pro democracy countryfolk to join me, and together we can say goodbye to the mandarin Mussolini for good! (Dog in photo for attention. He’s Banjo and he doesn’t want Trump in office or project 2025 to be implemented either)

And Harris has caved to the Hamas wing of her party, the Shapiro is out for not being Israel hating commie Jew like Sanders.

If you care about opposing terrorists and freeing American hostages that are being kept by Hamas, your only choice is Trump.

Biden delivers stark warnings about potential second Trump term at star-studded fundraiser

President Joe Biden delivered a series of warnings about a potential second term for Donald Trump during a Los Angeles fundraiser, describing the 2024 presidential election as a crucial moment in American history. Biden criticized Trump's actions on January 6 and his recent inflammatory remarks. The event, featuring former President Barack Obama and moderated by Jimmy Kimmel, raised over $30 million for Biden's reelection campaign.

Biden highlighted concerns about future Supreme Court appointments and criticized the current Court's conservative rulings, particularly the overturning of Roe v. Wade. He and other speakers, including First Lady Jill Biden and Obama, emphasized the dangers they believe a second Trump term poses to democracy and the rule of law. Obama and Biden both called for a focus on core American values and honesty, urging voters to remember the negative aspects of Trump's presidency. The event also included entertainment from celebrities like George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Barbra Streisand.

Day 2 of the 2024 DNC is here. I’m excited to hear from Bernie Sanders, Michelle Obama, Doug Emhoff, and President Obama. Tune in and share the live stream!

[cayomuchacha]

sadly it seems a vocal plurality of americans will simply always prioritize their material security over the lives of others.

you know, until harris actually makes concrete acceptable progressions wrt Palestine, until that happens KAMALA HARRIS CAN CHOKE, because, well ONE SHOULDN’T THINK that a military expansionist apartheid regime and genocidal rogue state such as israel deserves ANY right to “self defense” in a clear obfuscation of israel’s violative, menacing, authoritarian, expansionist and so clearly the antithesis of a self defensive position in the region.

I really, really don’t think any well meaning Democrat should so calmly accept such unacceptably condoning rhetoric of a pariah state committing genocide. We must demand from and hold accountable our leaders to the ideals from which we draw our collective power as a democracy.

:3 no respect for treaties with genocidal states! in breaking decency and humanity they thereby break the treaties! Which necessarily invoke propriety and good faith relations. please dont act like you liberals actually believe in treaty law now when you keep so quiet over broken treaties with Cuba, Hawai`i, Native Sovereign Nations, and beyond.

fuck you uncaring americans who only wish to elect a democrat so you can tune out from political engagement. many of us aren’t granted that luxury
