ROTHKOPF: —Unless we can say the Constitution must be rewritten and its manifold flaws expunged, we won’t fix it —Capitalism as practiced in America today is the problem not the solution "A political system in which the richest have vastly greater power than the vast majority of those in society—

davidrothkopf.substack.comAmerica is Broken: The Truth We Dare Not SpeakWe May Be on the Verge of a Political Breakthrough. What Comes Next Will Be Even More Demanding.

our system—is not a democracy. Our Supreme Court & our elites in both parties have killed it." Rothkopf didn't say how a country rewrites (as opposed to amends) its Constitution, but his point demands more public discussion. Capitalism needs to serve the masses. It clearly hasn't.

You can literally feel the intelligence, decency, morality, compassion, class, decorum stripped away when you hear the orange felon speak his hateful stupid compared to the masterclass of President Obama’s speeches. The racist will always live in the shadow of a beloved successful black man.

The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.

Starve them on social media, only interact with your peers, do search for their corruption on the search engines, ignore the mass media, but go to the indie news, talk with who lost the hope to vote, change the mind of only one person if you can. Go to the streets.

in terms of social media, that is the greatest lesson. if you can manage to teach your base to have the discipline not to engage with the other side, the effect is massive. The past few weeks, our social media was 100% left and that has never happened before.

Somehow, posting a rally video of Trump making a sound like a frog does not dissuade those who are under the sway of Ben Shapiro's arguments. The corruption arguments seem to be catching on. People mind corruption more when they themselves are hurting. Lying about their not hurting adds to the fire.

if you know what the sentiment is here (Brazil)... Bolsonaro's son challenged the Brazilian people, took his election for granted, and was even inviting heads of state to his inauguration. It was a universe of fake news; for a moment, there was no hope... but then, people woke from their slumber.

YES!! Despite the support of trmp and Russian bots, Hungary voted out Orban, Bolsonaro lost in Brazil, and Vucic was defeated in Serbia. Tomorrow it will be Netanyahu, and then there is the blue wave in the US. The world is kicking out authoritarians, one country at a time!

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

Tennessee Brando delivers a blistering assessment of Trump's remaining supporters. “It's sad to watch people who are so miserable in their own lives get behind a man who is the king of misery, who just keeps adding more misery to their lives, and they keep cheering it on.”

NEW: DOJ just admitted in court that their lawsuit against California is not about outcome determinative issues, it's simply saying that a single non-citizen voting causes the government irreparable harm. That's bananapants.

I don't agree with this. Even though Elon Musk received over $38,000,000,000 in corporate welfare from the federal government, he should still be allowed to vote. Once. What he should *not* be allowed to do is to interfere with *our* votes.

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

So Trump’s closing argument is that high gas prices are good because his donors who run oil companies are making bank, Jon Husted has a nice ass but not quite as good as Nicki Minaj’s ass, after 7 months the Reflecting Pool is almost done, and we get a ballroom, arch and helipad.

Jesse Ventura: “If Donald Trump would have gone in the military, he would have been the guy that wet his bed, cried for his mom, went hysterical, and would be carted out in the middle of the night. The man’s a coward. He’s a bully. All bullies are cowards. That’s why they’re bullies”

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

Brazil rejected Bolsonaro. Serbia's students beat Vučić. Machado is home in Venezuela. What a day for democracy.

Lula has won a fourth term in spite of Meta, after Brazil’s electoral court had to order platforms to stop throttling his reach while they boosted his Trump-backed opponent. Big Tech tried to rig this but the Brazilian people had the final say ✊

Many of you are asking how you can help me in these final days before the election. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

I know that everyone is focused on Trump's attacks in California and Alaska. My team is fighting in court in both places. But understand the fight for free and fair elections is much broader. Elias Law Group is currently litigating 92 voting and election cases in 42 states plus DC.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

The Attack Vector and Elon's 3 Minute "Game, Set, and Match" Steal "Read Only" vs "Write Enabled" election night hacking coupled to Greg Palast's findings that more than 4 million Harris votes were successfully suppressed suggests the Big Steal was multi-pronged.

So what if... the regime's -CA lawsuit -AK Senate race lawsuit -Executive Order vote-by-mail disruptions, etc., etc. are intended as distraction and misdirection to the main event: Election night "post tabulation" 'write-enabled' ballot manipulation? A national strike. For as long as it takes.

I don’t get it. If the tariffs are great for America and are bringing back manufacturing and are one of Trump’s signature policies, why won’t the Republicans who refused to overturn them even mention them?
