Many users consequently flocked there, although the platform has failed to gain any significant traction and is nothing more than a left-wing echo chamber.
Another platform frequented by those disillusioned with X is Mastodon, an open-source social network with aggressive censorship policies.
However, it appears that no single platform has yet to capture a significant market share. Given that X remains the only platform serving as a genuine public for all ideas and interests, don’t be surprised if these “disillusoned” leftists end up coming back with their tail between their legs.
Sorry Virginia, but this is funny. They’re going crazy in the land of the zombies. Harris deniers are demanding a recount or some kind of audit. They have been all over twitter. And the tweets are getting millions of views. I’m sorry, but that’s hilarious.
To my lurkers on the left. The election of 2024 was “the most secure in American history.”
Professors at Harvard and Princeton have canceled classes following Trump’s victory, and other units within the universities are offering “spaces” to process the election results.
At Harvard University, the courses “Sociology 1156: Statistics for Social Sciences,” “Applied Math 22a: Solving and Optimizing,” and the general education courses “The Ancient Greek Hero” and “Popular Culture and Modern China” canceled Wednesday class sessions, made attendance optional, or extended assignment deadlines, according to the student-run paper the Crimson.
An undergraduate student at Harvard told National Review that the first 30 minutes of a section meeting for the class “Gov 1790: American Foreign Policy” were dedicated to origami folding.
Harvard economics lecturer Maxim Boycko said in an email that the in-class quiz for “Economics 1010a: Intermediate Microeconomics” would be optional this week and further permitted students to “take time off,” per the Crimson.
“As we recover from the eventful election night and process the implications of Trump’s victory, please know that class will proceed as usual today, except that classroom quizzes will not be for credit,” Boycko wrote. “Feel free to take time off if needed.”
According to the Crimson, Physics professor Jennifer E. Hoffman said in an email to physics students and faculty that her office would be “a space to process the election.”
“Many in our community are sleep-deprived, again grieving for glass ceilings that weren’t shattered, fearful for the future, or embarrassed to face our international colleagues,” she wrote. “I stress-baked several pans of lemon bars to share.”
The Harvard College Democrats released a statement on Thursday expressing support for Kamala Harris and concerns about a second Trump presidency.
“The Harvard College Democrats are incredibly grateful for the leadership of Vice President Kamala Harris and the vision she presented for the future of the country in her campaign for President of the United States,” reads the statement. “We are proud to endorse a campaign that centered joy, community, and a belief in the immense potential of this great nation.”
At Princeton University, at least two classes were canceled on Wednesday: a graduate molecular-biology class, and the psychology course “Social Cognition: The Psychology of Interactive Minds.”
An undergraduate Princeton student in the course “Social Cognition: The Psychology of Interactive Minds” wrote to National Review that all precepts for the class were canceled for the week, and at the beginning of the lecture on Thursday, students were told they had the opportunity to leave if they could not emotionally handle participating. (The professor of the class, Alin Coman, did not respond to a request for comment by the time of publication.)
University Health Services at Princeton University hosted virtual and in-person “Post-Election Listening Circles” on Wednesday.
“We have been hearing about lots of anxiety from students about the election and felt like listening circles can be a helpful way to allow students to process and get support from one another,” Princeton University spokeswoman Jennifer Morrill told the student-run publication Daily Princetonian in a statement.
The Gender and Sexuality Resource Center (GSRC) at Princeton University held a “post-election discussion” on Wednesday, where students groups led conversations about “queer/trans concerns” and “misogynoir in the 2024 election.” On Thursday evening, the GSRC is sponsoring a “meditation session” with Molly Crockett, a professor of psychology at Princeton. The GSRC will also hold an “arts and crafts” session for crocheting.
The Office of Diversity and Inclusion — Campus Life at Princeton University held a “post election decompression space” on Wednesday, and the Office of Religious Life will hold an event titled “Holding Space: The Work of Active Listening and Compassion” on Thursday evening.
The Carl A. Fields Center at Princeton University is hosting a “community care dinner” on Thursday evening. “The food is seasoned,” the Carl A. Fields Center advertised. “The community care sacred.”
Sunrise Princeton, a student-run climate-activism group, held a gathering “to process the election” with craft-making on Wednesday.
“Last night was devastating to watch,” the group Sunrise Princeton wrote in an email. “Many of us are feeling frustrated, scared, uncertain — a whole mishmash of (mostly not good) emotions.”

Harris is five foot three. Bash five foot. Harris is slumped over. Very poor optics. And the substance of the interview? Bash did ask some tough questions, but did no follow up. I’ll let you decide.
Dana Bash: But generally speaking, how should voters look at some of the changes that you’ve made, that you’ve explained some of here in your policy? Is it because you have more experience now and you’ve learned more about the information? Is it because you were running for President in a Democratic primary, and should they feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?
Kamala Harris: Dana, I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed. You mentioned the Green New Deal. I have always believed, and I have worked on it, that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time. We did that with the Inflation Reduction Act. We have set goals for the United States of America, and by extension, the globe, around when we should meet certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as an example. That value has not changed.
Much of the MSM is reporting on how Harris is proposing no tax on tips. Sounds original doesn’t it? Let’s see what other original idea she comes up with.
U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris told supporters in Nevada on Saturday she supported eliminating taxes on tips, taking a similar position to her rival Donald Trump in an effort to win over service workers, an important constituency in the state. Below from the NY Times.
The “no tax on tips” pitch has garnered bipartisan support since Mr. Trump first floated it in June, including from Senator Ted Cruz, the Texas Republican, and both of Nevada’s Democratic senators, Catherine Cortez Masto and Jacky Rosen. Mr. Trump also announced his support for the policy in Las Vegas.
The former president responded immediately to Ms. Harris’s proposal on Saturday night, posting on his social media website, Truth Social, that she had “copied” his own. “This was a TRUMP idea,” he wrote. “She has no ideas, she can only steal them from me.”
Democratic presidential candidate, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris arrives at her campaign rally at the Georgia State Convocation Center on July 30, 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Tell me about how you get a crowd at a political rally. If Harris you hire entertainment.
I’m sure you heard about the crowds recently at the Harris rally’s. Tens of thousands. But what MSM isn’t telling you is that in Philly after the entertainment the crowd started to head for the doors.
So now the entertainment is being moved to after the speeches. How funny is that? And why? Maybe the folks came for the free musical acts?
Shortly after Kamala began her speech attendees of her rally began to leave.
What does it tell you when the entertainment is moved to the back of the schedule instead of being the opening act? Harris is supposed to be the main event. But I guess Philadelphia proved that she was second best.
OK so they’re really not funny, but her’s what the MSM is leaving out. This will not be in no particular order, so come along with me as we go through his history.
Let Minneapolis burn forfourdays then called it a teachable moment and said he understood how the hate groups felt.
Said after meeting with Biden, declared Joe fit for duty. What did he see that the rest of the country didn’t?
How about his service to his country? Where he was demoted and when his unit was called to go to Iraq, he resigned.

“Walz served in the Minnesota Army National Guard and retired at the rank of master sergeant, or an E-8. However, on his official website bio, he lists a higher rank that he served at for a short period that ultimately was rescinded, as he did not complete all the requirements to serve at that rank. However, his bio implies that he retired at the rank of command sergeant major, or an E-9,” the report said.

We found the perfect Democrat VP. Keith Olbeermann. Would they not make the perfect couple?
On Sunday, Alec Burleson hit a home run in the third inning of the Cardinals’ game against the Braves. As he was rounding the bases, Burleson and a couple of teammates in the dugout put a hand over their ears. They raised a fist in what appeared to be a tribute to President Trump’s reaction following his assassination attempt.
Nothing about the vice president’s sudden elevation felt organic.
How ironic is it that the muscle of the Democratic party has turned on them?
Black Lives Matter, the insidious Marxist organization Democrats used to foment violence during the race-mongering madness of 2020, has issued a public objection to party leaders’ swift coronation of Vice President Kamala Harris as their 2024 presidential nominee.
“Following the primary where millions of black voters weighed in, after one poor debate performance, the DNC Party elites and billionaire donors bullied Joe Biden out of the race,” BLM said in a statement to Reuters.
Sunday on X, President Joe Biden (supposedly) announced that he would withdraw from the 2024 presidential race.
The announcement came under unusual and perhaps suspicious circumstances. Since his dreadful debate performance on June 27, Biden had faced mounting pressure to quit the race from fellow Democrats. He had refused.
Announcing the decision on X, where one might reasonably doubt that the octogenarian president has ever posted on his own behalf, only heightened suspicions of a Democratic Party coup.
For the past two days, Democrats — including Biden himself in a dubious endorsement made via speaker phone — have rallied around Harris. Still, nothing about the vice president’s sudden elevation has felt organic.
Notwithstanding these strange developments, Democrats have clearly tried to depict their party as united behind Harris.
BLM’s public objection, therefore, constitutes the first major internal demand that Democrats pump the brakes on the Harris 2024 train.
“We call for the Rules Committee to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates,” the BLM statement read.
Indeed, it appears that Democrats — the so-called “party of democracy” — have failed to pull the proverbial wool over BLM’s eyes.
“The current political landscape is unprecedented, with President Biden stepping aside in a manner never seen before. This moment calls for decisive action to protect the integrity of our democracy and the voices of black voters,” the statement said.
To its credit, BLM called out party leaders’ apparent coup against Biden.
“Now, Democratic Party elites and billionaire donors are attempting to manipulate black voters by anointing Kamala Harris and an unknown vice president as the new Democratic ticket without a primary vote by the public,” the statement continued.
Also to its credit, BLM appeared unmoved by the argument that race and gender should take precedence over other factors.
“We have no idea where Kamala Harris stands on the issues, now that she has assumed Joe Biden’s place, and we have no idea of the record of her potential vice president because we don’t even know who it is yet,” the statement read.
Apart from its nauseating emphasis on skin color, the BLM statement contained nothing to which reasonable Americans should object.
On balance, of course, BLM has not exactly earned the benefit of the doubt from conservative or right-leaning voters.
Perhaps, therefore, it is best to take direction from the late former President Herbert Hoover.
On Sept. 16, 1941 — nearly three months after Adolf Hitler stabbed fellow tyrant Joseph Stalin in the back by ordering German forces to attack the Soviet Union — Hoover urged his fellow Americans to stay out of the European conflict.
“The fratricidal war between Hitler and Stalin is daily weakening both dictators,” Hoover argued.
That pre-Pearl Harbor assessment from a former president contained wisdom applicable to present circumstances. And conservatives should heed that wisdom.
After all, if BLM launches a civil war against fellow tyrants in the Democratic Party leadership, then who could complain? In that case, conservatives must stand aside and allow the conflict to weaken everyone involved.
While it would be fun to see happen, more BLM/Antifa violence and destruction will simply cost all of us more money. –TPR
Just when you thought you saw everything with Joey boy, this happens next. Biden was always had this ghostly white pale skin. Obvious he lacked vitamin D and a little bit of sun.
Joe went from ghostly to gasterly. He’s been nicknamed Pumpkin Joe. Even the MSM noticed. Below from Newsweek.
Days after the debate in Atlanta, Georgia, last week, which saw Biden stumble over his words and lose his train of thought on several occasions, reinforcing widespread fears over his mental and physical fitness as he runs for reelection in November, Biden showed off a strong tan on Monday. Yesterday, the president gave a televised statement following the Supreme Court‘s ruling that granted Trump partial immunity from criminal prosecution. It was a decision that Biden said undermined the rule of law.
This last picture is actually from 2016. Seems nothings changed, leftists continue to lose their shit.
