    Part I is here (6/13-7/16), Part II is here (7/18-8/23)

    Lincoln Project is kicking off RNC week by dragging out Ronnie:

    "A plumber come with his tools to do a job ¨

    or  as Carlos Quintana  (quondam red sox  first baseman  was  conventionally  alluded to )

    ¨see ball, hit ball.¨

    Lefty Dem insurrectionism before & after the Dem convention

    Checkout #debbiemustgo for a start. Stuff like this

     

    Debbie Wasserman is one of the most corrupt people in the world

    She's a Nancy Pelosi Democrat

    #DebbieMustGo

    Feeds Trump's meme about protecting suburbanites

    Biden campaign ads

    Very good sophisticated article on the problems "with sorting based on the dominant racial binary"

    DoJ unlawful AG as campaign stooge thread

    The Franco-Prussian War, a cautionary tale in 22 tweets

    Proof that the Cult of Trump and the GOP are not the same thing
