Asbestos to be brought back to manufacturing on a case-by-case basis, thanks to new EPA rule: This is baaaaaaaaaaad. My dad was an insulator and had friends who died because of asbestos. He still gets his lungs checked annually because of all his exposure.

Stephen Miller has a plan to come for legal immigrants and make it harder for them to get citizenship now. Trump is reportedly on board. Fuck. So much for all those shitheads telling people to just go through the proper channels.

The comments on r/The_Donald are so hysterical. Blah blah blah Deep State, blah blah blah taking our freedoms away. Blah Blah Blah Alex Jones never said it was an inside job. Blah Blah Blah Islamophiba, Pedophillia, AntiGay, nonsense. The deplorables have a home and that is where they live. Move over 4chan.

And then there is this crap about 63 people being shot in Chicago this weekend.
Because the right REALLY cares about POCs. Where the outrage everyone? Clearly it is tied up with the red tape by the gun lobby and the constant in stream of #thoughtsandprayers coming from the right.

Luckily, my most staunch Republican relatives are just outside as well.

I am getting so excited for the fall and midterms. Last week I donated and sent in my request for a Kaine / Connolly yard sign. I have this feeling of excitement and dread. I figure it's the PTSD still lingering from 2016.

So that book I started reading, it’s unsettling because the characters are so easily recognizable (at least the world leaders). It’s The Kremlin Conspiracy by Joel Rosenberg if anyone wants to read with me.

God damn I really hope Danny O'Connor wins in Ohio tonight. I have EVERYTHING crossed. I have a friend I met through TB who lives there and she volunteered for O'Connor. She said there's a lot of positive energy out there for him and I'm hoping people get out and VOTE! We need some excitement to get ready for midterms. I also realized he's only 31, which would make him the youngest rep, which is exciting too. I'd like to see more of the younger generation get out there and lead.

It’s already pretty amazing what he’s done - the DNC didn’t put much money into his campaign since it’s been a republican held spot since 1980, but he raised a shit ton on his own and is either in a dead heat or a little behind in every poll. It shouldn’t be that close! Which is a win itself. I fully expect the republican to squeak by with a win though, but we live in weird times so I could be wrong. I hope to be.

I just saw that Cruz asked Trump to help him campaign against Beto. I hope Beto kicks butt in that election. It'll be interesting to see how Trump is impacting voters in these elections.

I would love to see some data on it once all is said and done. Every time I look at current polls or read 538 I just remember 2016 polling and get angry.

Did you see the article on Buzzfeed claiming that QAnon is a prank on Boomers? It's plausible.

The ACLU sent an email with a postcard campaign. You can select a set number of postcards (up to 150 if you’re solo/not hosting a party). They’ll send you the postcards, you fill them out and send them back to them and they address and mail them. They’re going out to voters who are like-minded but didn’t vote in the last midterm election. If you’re interested you can go to: go.peoplepower.org/signup/aclu-gotv-postcards/?source=ACLUem_20180807
