Pro-Palestinian HAMAS protestors are probably the biggest single group, estimates of 30,000 to 100,000 protesters.

Hopefully they learned from BLM.

I watched the live streams last night, probably 10 police for every protester. They had them channeled for their protest walk, very low key. Today’s may be different, maybe not.

First lady Jill Biden is expected to speak Monday night at the DNC and, according to a source familiar with her remarks, will focus on the president’s strength and character, as well as make clear her support for Vice President Kamala Harris.

The first lady will call on Americans to come together “with faith in each other, hope for a brighter future, and love for our country,” the source said.

Racially segregated meetings:

It would be hysterical and nuts if she went off script and tell everyone what really happened. Of course, they have probably paid her even more money to play nice...like that family needs any more ill-gotten monies.

Clown Council Meeting 9:30am - 11:30pm CDT

According to X, Joe and Jill are leaving after Joe’s speech. They are not staying for the rest of the week.

The Chicago police remind me of the British young men boarding trains on the way to the battlefields of World War I.

They are not ready for what is about to happen.

All free vasectomy and medication abortions are filled for our mobile health clinic in Chicago. Check back soon — we will share the interest form link again if we have cancellations.

Democrats never change.

Yes, is that sweet of them, every group met with separately, given their own pitch. No Whites, No Asians, No Jews, No Christians, etc.

And they claim to be against racism, yet it is central to everything they do.

I’m coming back to this link when it goes live. I know the alphabet snooze agencies won’t tell us the truth about what’s going on outside the DNC circus, so I’ll have to look at alternative sites.

[Responsibility2nd]

150 National Guardsmen vs. 25,000 (or more) protestors.

I’m gonna need more popcorn.

Jill wants to get back to Delaware as quickly as possible, needs to get started on her blockbuster “tell-all” book. It will be a doozy.

[Reno89519]

Here is the Democrat's platform -- 91 pages -- issued last night. It calls for reflecting Biden!

I started a separate thread but it got pulled from Front Page news and is now lost in the posts.

That video: Looks like the LEO’s are outnumbered 3:1.

Just wait till nightfall. That’s when the fun will begin.

[plain talk]

well done by someone!

Just when you think you’ve seen everything stupid under the sun....

Marching Abortion Pills.

AAPI is Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. So they got those covered
