Earlier this week Rishi Sunak travelled to the US to meet president Joe Biden. Here's the cartoon I did responding to said visit.

Don't fuck this up, America. You are being handed a golden opportunity to put a brilliant man at the head of all the chaos, if they don't try to kill him first. This is your moment to elect someone who not only believes in change, but has a history of building it.

Professor and activist Cornel West announces his candidacy for US president on the independent People’s Party ticket.

Progressives are jubilant, but there is also criticism that he is challenging Beiden and potentially helping the GOP candidate. Others say he should run for the Green Party instead. Ultimately, we face a difficult choice: accept a compromise or take a risk for a better future?

#MikePence is arguably the most interesting of the #GOP candidates for #Election2024 #President, because, on the one hand, he demonstrably has no spine (not even a notochord), but, on the other hand, has an ideological grounding that gives him a soupcon more integrity than any other #Republican in the race.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I loathe the idea of him becoming #POTUS, but that's true for pretty much any GOP candidate.

An interesting graph. Given the relatively similar numbers of #candidates and categories between 1980 and 2012, and then the huge increase in numbers in 2016 & 2020, especially in the "other" category, it seems IMHO that this country is in desperate need of (or is increasingly desiring) something other than the standard political options and probably also the two-party system.

A graph of registered presidential candidates by election years 1980 through 2020. From 1980 to 2012 the number of candidates for Dems, GOP, and other remained rather consistent. For 2016 and 2020 the numbers skyrocketed, especially for the other category.

Let’s see how this ages, with #Biden announcing his re-election campaign: The US will not get a #GenX #president. We will go straight from decades of boomers to a #Millenial president.

Don’t get me wrong: I love millennials and will gladly cast my lot in with them. But GenX is screwed over in its own, special way. At the prime of our careers and peak capability, we don’t get the reins of power except when we pry it out of the cold, dead hands of boomers.

Last summer, the Nashville city council rejected a proposal to bid to host the 2024 RNC convention (they were apparently finalists alongside Milwaukee). They said that they didn't want to deal with the security problems it could bring. While this may at first appear to be a 'heckler's veto', the RNC has only itself to blame for the fear that their convention would create mayhem:
1. Their leadership encourages violent assaults against protesters, even to the point where Rick Perry is promising to pardon a convicted murderer.
2. They continue to minimize and justify the crimes committed on Jan 6 as people fought their way into the capitol.
3. They have aligned themselves with street-fighting gangs like the Proud Boys.

I would not invite these people to my town. I feel sorry for Milwaukee and Wisconsin.

@TheConversationUS I wrote about this exact thing in my #book "Anyone Can Be President" and told the story of Eugene V. Debs, who ran for #president from prison.

Excerpt from my book Anyone Can Be President" that reads: "Eugene V. Debs ran for president from his prison cell
at the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary.
There is no explicit language in the Constitution that bars anyone with a criminal record from running for office. In fact, in 1920, a union leader and prominent socialist named Eugene V. Debs ran for president from his prison cell at the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, where he was serving time for sedition. That said, it's highly inadvisable to use the mugshot from the time you got arrested for drunkenly crashing your Buick 88 into the Piggly Wiggly as your campaign poster.
A clean record is the best record, obviously, so if you're a young person reading this with hopes of running the country one day, stay out of trouble. If you're an adult, turn the page to see some notable criminal offenses that may prove troublesome for your potential campaign."

#FranklinDRoosevelt, the only four-term president and architect of the #NewDeal. No slouch either.

#RonDeSantis is now boasting that, with his cronies and contributors holding improvement district control over #WaltDisneyWorld, he can start forcing Disney to produce non-"woke" stuff that he and his base want to see.

Yes, Ron is escalating from "I'm going to punish you for criticising my agenda" to "I'm going to force you to vocally support me and mine," all through the coercive power of the state.

He's a budding #autocrat and he's probably running for #President .

https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/03/desantis-promises-florida-will-control-disney-content.html

On Monday, he took matters much further. DeSantis appointed a board to oversee Disney. The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District is stacked with DeSantis cronies, including Bridget Ziegler, a proponent of his education policies; Ron Peri, who heads the Christian ministry the Gathering USA; and Michael Sasso, president of the Federalist Society’s Orlando chapter.

While the board handles infrastructure and maintenance, DeSantis boasted that it could use its leverage to force Disney to stop "trying to inject woke ideology" on children. 

“When you lose your way, you've got to have people that are going to tell you the truth,” DeSantis proclaimed. “So we hope they can get back on. But I think all of these board members very much would like to see the type of entertainment that all families can appreciate."
