Wary waiting
Nearly two weeks have passed since Iran vowed to attack Israel over the assassination of a Hamas leader in Tehran.
The region is still on edge.
Israel is prepared for attacks launched from either Iran or any of its proxies. The US has a dozen warships in the region with the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln and a nuclear sub on the way. Leaders of both Iran and Hezbollah have sworn revenge for the recent killings of terrorist leaders in Beirut and Tehran. Other countries in the region are on edge. The foreign minister of Jordan made a rare visit to Tehran on Sunday. European nations are concerned. In the meantime, even after a number of US military personal have been injured, the US State Department keeps pressuring Israel to make deals. Thus far Iran has yet to strike.
Surprise attack: Last week Ukraine surprised the world by invading the Kursk region of Russia. Kursk will always be remembered as the scene of a legendary WWII battle between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. The seizing of this territory leaves Ukraine with some interesting possibilities. Will Russia divert some of its forces from the Ukraine front to try and recover Russian territory? Will holding this territory give Ukraine some leverage in a deal with Russia? The big question for Ukraine is whether it will be worth trying to hold. Sacrificing a lot of military resources could spell disaster.
With 83 days to the election the Harris campaign and our dishonest media show no signs of letting Kamala do an interview. The media is in the tank for Kamala Harris and is dedicated to her election. Next week is the DNC convention. Can they get away with this just like they got away with hiding Joe Biden during the 2020 election?
Meanwhile Donald Trump gave a live interview on X.
It was a two-hour interview conducted by Elon Musk. Unfortunately, Trump is still chasing the shiny objects, such as the way the dems pushed Biden out and brought Harris in without any voting. He did manage to attack the Biden/Harris record and the Harris ideology, but not enough for my taste.
In the news:
The F.B.I. is investigating an apparent hack of the Trump campaign. The hack is likely the work of Iran, which fears a Trump Presidency.
A judge ruled that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could not be included on a New York ballot because he had used a “sham” address to maintain his New York residency. Kennedy vowed to appeal.
Representative Mike Kelly, who was in the crowd during the Trump assassination attempt, is now leading a bipartisan task force that will help investigate the shooting.
The SCOTUS is now considering an Arizona voting bill requiring proof of citizenship.
Good morning.
The question remains: Can they pull it off?
"Multiple reports say “Vice President Kamala Harris, currently running for president without an agenda, plans to ‘flip the script, on the border,” marvels the Washington Examiner’s Byron York . The idea is “to find a way to avoid blame for the Biden-Harris administration’s welcoming, encouraging, and accommodating more than 10 million illegal and unvetted border crossers who have entered the United States since Harris took office.” Yet “she has played a key role in border affairs in the last 3½ years”; this is “a disaster entirely of the president’s and vice president’s making. That will not change. One cannot ‘flip the script’ on a disaster.” “A candidate with an indelible record on an issue can’t just say the word and purport to be the opposite.”
She can’t ‘flip’ this script, an anti-free speech ticket, courage vs. the Jew-haters and other commentary (nypost.com)
What amazes me (or shows the stupidity of the average voter) is that Harris is showing a 1 point lead in recent polling on who voters trust to do more for the economy.
And this turnaround has been done without releasing any plans or platforms, without any interviews and with a recent statement that there is no light between the White House and Harris meaning she will continue with the Biden economic agenda. While this is just one poll and there are others that show a different leader, it's amazing that polling can continue to be so fucked up. Guess it goes to show that it's all how the questions are worded to get the results they want to see.
It reflects the fickleness of voters. The media aids her campaign in a rollout totally devoid of any substance, which amounts to nothing more than a gala celebration. For the democrat base it was a celebration. They had resigned themselves to losing with Biden and now they got via devious means a new candidate in the middle of a campaign.
With the way the main-stream media is aiding Harris, I'm waiting for the Washington Post to roll out a new slogan.
How I miss the days of honest journalism. When actual questions were asked and reporters were reporters and not activists.
We live in a country where the press has total freedom, and they use it to distort the truth.
Thank goodness for that. Our founders were absolutely right to include freedom of the press in the 1st Amendment.
Of course, authoritarians and reactionary-types want a state controlled media that they run, much like the inspiration they take from Russia and China.
Exactly. As if massive corporations and left wing government officials colluding to censor news during the 2020 election wasn't proof enough, the modern fascists keep working to censor any negative coverage. Examples being the Washington Post reporter begging the Biden Administration to stop a private citizen from interviewing Trump and the EU trying threatening to censor the interview. Combine that with the Labor government in Great Britain throwing people in jail for sharing pictures of riots and threatening to arrest Americans who say mean things we know exactly who the authoritarian reactionaries are, the left.

Sean brought up some true and excellent points and all you can do is throw a weak insult, [deleted][✘]
You mean like the Washington Post "reporter" who suggested that the Biden White House engage in censorship of the Elon Musk / President Trump talk? You mean like that?
And idea on when the Washington Post is going to change it's official slogan to
I made a salient and appropriate point and all you can do is post the stupidest fucking comment anyone has written on here for [weeks,deleted][✘]
This is why I watch Special Report:
Rep. Goldman: “I understand why Donald Trump is afraid to debate.”
Baier: “He accepted three. September 4, September 10, September 17.”
Goldman looked stunned.
trump may have agreed to 2 other debate scenarios, but harris has only agreed to 1 with trump that I'm aware of. the same debate trump has tried to weasel his way out of already. you don't really think an experienced prosecuting attorney is going to take the word of a proven liar and convicted felon, do you? it's in harris' best interest to wait and see if the maga braggart actually shows up to the 1st scheduled debate before agreeing to any more debates. tomorrow or 2 months from tomorrow, at trump's current rate of mental deterioration, the end results will be the same. with all the grumbling about trump in the GOP smoke filled rooms going on now, the longer she waits, the harder it will be for them to change from a candidate that's already 1 cognitive step away from a memory care center entrance. it's already going on 4 weeks since the biden hand-off to harris, and still no organized or coordinated response from the trump campaign. after the 1st debate with harris, trump's care takers won't let him debate her again...
Ummmm, that was scheduled with Biden and not Harris. There was a need to reschedule. The second party in the debate was no longer viable.
Nor press conferences or interviews with Harris. Four weeks. And she still has no plan except to follow Biden's policy lead. Notice she isn't saying continuing with our successes but rather, policies.
ABC states the debate agreement only named the POTUS candidates TBD by the RNC and DNC conventions. you don't think any major corporation with their own legal dept would be stupid enough to hand trump a contract he can get out of, do you? don't you find trump's timing of filing a defamation suit against ABC a little suspicious?
her campaign is less than 1 month old and she's still surfing the momentum. looks like trump needs to stick with his basic racism and misogyny attacks until the debate happens, get worked over by an experienced prosecutor, and then go face a judge for sentencing on 34 felonies and 10 counts of contempt.
Why? If trump already agreed to it, why reschedule? That makes no sense.
So that right there negates your comment about Trump "weaseling" out of the debate. The DNC convention hasn't happened yet thereby no nomination / candidate.
he's not running as a democrat.
Makes complete sense. Different opponent. He needs time to actually let him and his team size her and her ideas up so they know where to concentrate the punches, inevitably, to come.
Exactly dev, she agreed to the scheduled debate and just because the former 'president' traitor convicted felon and rapist doesn't have the smarts or the ability or balls to debate her, on the agreed upon terms and forum, why should she agree to his terms?
Laughable.
Have to disagree with this. Trump needs to make that Sept 10th debate as it may be the only time the two of them go face to face. It's a good bet that Harris will not agree to a Sept 4th debate and doubtful she would agree to the third proposed debate.
As for his team sizing her up to determine where to concentrate the punches, I have my doubts. Look at the attacks by Trump so far, on her looks, her race, etc. If that's coming from his team he's got some of the worst idea men in the history of campaigning. But I believe that is coming from Trump himself as he believes he's the best judge of what is right. Not that he will do it (because his ego won't let him) but he needs to stop hiring Yes-Men and get someone in who will slap him upside the head and tell him to pull his head out of his ass. Attacking her race or looks will not win him votes. He needs to emphasis her policies and the problems with the policies as shown by the results from the Biden Administration. He needs to show how Walz's policies hurt the people of the state of Minnesota.
Right now it appears he's doing everything he can to lose the race. He's running out of time to turn things around as early voting starts in some states in only 39 calendar days.
Fucking awesome!
Ridiculous 'it was scheduled with Biden and not Harris' is their only go to
Let the moron keep hanging himself, it's been quite fun to watch. Usually, I don't enjoy watching someone slide further and further into dementia, but it is hilarious with this ranting raving demented fool. Did you see him exiting trump tower the other day and waving to the crowd of no one? LOL
Yup, no need whatsoever to reschedule. Why should they agree to the convicted felon and rapists' terms?
No need.
The CNN debate was everything Biden wanted. It was on his terms.
I think the second debate should be on Trump's terms.
It's called fair play.
Makes no sense at all.
The former 'president' convicted felon and rapist needs no time to prepare to ramble and rant and rave incoherently when asked a question.
'It's called fair play'
You think democrats should set all the conditions all the time?
I think Trump agreed to the Sept 10th debate with the Biden campaign. The simple fact that Biden dropped out of the race IMO does not change that. Trump agreed to the debate and it's terms before and he needs to honor that agreement.
I do plan on watching that debate closely. I hope that the close friendship that Harris has with an ABC VP does not impact the debate. It would be a shame if one candidate is again given questions in advance as happened when Donna Brazile gave the questions to Hillary Clinton in advance.
I hope so too. CNN did a surprisingly good job. The problem is that IMO ABC has become more activist than any other network news organization. All of this was set up by the Biden campaign and was presented as a dare. Let us hope that the ABC debate will simply up the ante on a losing hand. She'll need the questions in advance to have any chance.
They don't.
Don't worry. I am sure she will agree to be interviewed by musk any day now. Unless she is a coward afraid she won't get all softball questions. Trump isn't afraid to be interviewed by almost anyone but kamala has to stick with the view or MSN that has crowned her queen ofjoy.
as soon as Trump gets interviewed by George Stephanopoulos
Great. He did an extensive interview with George a few years back. Kamalas turn
that was before trump tried overthrow the government. the questions would be a little different this time
An inept attempt.
Why do you think George would be tougher than NABJ?
her campaign is less than 1 month old and she's still surfing the momentum
sounds like you are fully aware her poll numbers will drop like a rock the second she opens her mouth during an interview/press conference
harris and her team are running her campaign, trump and maga aren't. as desperate as maga is for a peter douchebag sound bite that they think will distract from the daily faux pas' that fall from the mouth of trump whenever a camera is seen.
I'm fully aware that when left alone, trump will dig his own deep hole, harris will push him into it at the debate, and the voters will kick the dirt on top of him in november, even if citizen trump manages to stay out of equal justice for all prison for 34 felonies and 10 contempt charges at his sentencing...
now who's stuck with an old man that's moved from flirting to dancing with the liabilities of advanced age?
harris and her team are running her campaign
By doing what? Running from the press so they don’t have to answer why the VP pick lied about his deployment status and retirement grade?
Yea…….hiding from the people they want to vote for them is a great strategy s/
i think you should be in charge of the trump campaign
So that is why harris won't be interviewed by musk?
i dont think harris wants to give musk any credibility
Yeah, because the self-made man, who richest man in the world who is providing internet to the globe needs to get his credibility from a moron like Harris.
hiding from the people they want to vote for them is a great strategy
when the choice is between hiding her and exposing her incompetence to voters, hiding might be the better strategy
i kind of agree. Even Harris cant give him credibility.
Musk did not ask Trump a single difficult question. It was a farce.
Fucking awesome as usual.
Excellent John!
lol
Outstanding George. Correct as usual
No I would rather be in charge of the Harris campaign. All i have to do is say ‘don’t talk to anyone’ and my job will be done.
LOL!
Who is in charge of Trump's campaign? Nobody seems to be taking care of business. They still only have a professional staff in a few states and he isn't paying his vendors and he has hardly made any big media purchases. Oh, nevermind. We all know that all those $$$ are going to Trump's personal lawyers and his mountain of $ judgements and into Trump Klan pockets! Trump knows he is going to lose and lose badly. So, Trump and Co are cashing in now while all the stupid MAGA suckers are still paying up...
After November Trump, Trump Org and all of Trump Media are going broke and bankrupt.
Good Riddance!
Sell! Sell! Sell!
They keep telling him to shut up but he just won't listen.
Some clowns thought he would make a good VP nominee. Trump would have probbaly paid money for that to happen.
He's a Swalwell type clown.
The first time I heard him I thought he was a lawyer for a congressional committee.
Lawyer was the first thing that came to mind.
BRISTOL, Va. – On the campaign trail with Virginia’s GOP Senate nominee Hung Cao Friday, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin touted the fruit of his election integrity labor — namely, the removal of more than 6,000 non-citizens from the state’s voter rolls and codifying the Commonwealth’s all-paper balloting system.
“We went to work to make sure that with data feeds from the DMV and for the Social Security Administration, if you are a non-citizen, you were removed from the voter rolls over the last two and a half years. We got 6,000 of them.”
Speaking to a packed room on the second floor of the Michael Waltrip Brewing Co. in Bristol, Youngkin elaborated on his newly announced Executive Order 35 , aimed at safeguarding elections in the state.
“We’re going to make sure the voter rolls are clean,” Youngkin said, going on to describe tens of thousands of voters who needed to be purged ahead of November.
Youngkin touts removal of 6K non-citizens as a result of election integrity measures (nypost.com)
Would that all states would work harder to insure the voting rolls in their states are clean. But not all states want to do the work as it costs money. I can speak from experience. Here in Arizona I had a friend who had moved to Las Vegas and voted up there but his parents continued to get his ballots in their mail every year despite for the first six cycles of sending the ballots back marked 'Moved to Nevada'. They called the state office, but it was never cleaned up.
Arizona has had a lot of problems. Two most notable from last year were the breakdown of the traditional election day voting which had a huge effect on Republican voters and the control one of the candidates had on state voting.
Arizona has a lot of work to do.
Sorry, guess I wasn't clear. The problem was with the Arizona elections board. They would not remove my friend from the voting roles despite being notified many times that the person in question had moved to Nevada. In fact when he moved back to Arizona last year he didn't need to re-register to vote, just update his mailing address.
The fault was not with you. You were very clear.
I was beyond unclear. I meant Arizona when I used Nevada.
Allow me to correct.
Last night Trump complimented Harris on her looks and compared her beauty to Melania's.
Donald Trump Compares Kamala Harris' Looks to Melania Trump: 'Beautiful Woman' (msn.com)
Is he growing more truthful or senile?
I guess he agrees with Obama who once called Harris "by far, the best-looking attorney general."
Pres. Obama Apologizes For Calling Kamala Harris 'Best-Looking Attorney General' - CBS Los Angeles (cbsnews.com)
I disagree with both of them.
I disagree with both of them.
Are you going to enlighten us why you think this or should we draw our own conclusions?
LOL ...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
It is a matter of taste.
'A matter of taste'
lol
I don't see anything attractive about her.
Of course not

A migrant who led a gang of asylum-seeking thugs in a savage, caught-on-camera beating of two NYPD officers in Times Square and then quickly made bail was just busted for serial theft, police sources say.
Yohenry Brito, 24, of Venezuela was arrested late Tuesday for a pair of thefts at Manhattan Sephora locations: one in July in which he cut security wires on display cases to steal fragrances, and another Aug. 6, when he ripped off $1,358 worth of merchandise from store shelves before fleeing with an accomplice, who was not apprehended, police sources told The Post.
He was previously arrested and released over at least three other thefts — both before and after the shameful Times Square police beatdown .

Thank you Kamala Harris for your failures.
It wouldn't be right to lock him up. He is one of the oppressed and he comes from a corrupt nation.
He may have given us the finger, but the problem lies with us / S.
I would like to ask the seeder - dont you really think Trump should drop out or be replaced due to his delusional tweet about Harris' rally sizes , where he accused her of using AI to create crowds out of thin air ?
How much embarrassment is the GOP prepared to endure?
Republicans let the people decide, unlike Pelosi and the democrats. The people have chosen Trump.
Will he again lose another election he should win?
We shall find out.
I asked you if Trump should drop out since he has proven himself delusional. Or are you fine with the blatant , ridiculous lying about Harris crowd size?
I only have one question for you:
Why won't Kamala Harris do an interview?
She will do an interview before Trump will become sane.
Yes, lying about crowd size is definitely disqualifying. How about lying about your military service? is that disqualifying? how about lying about your border policies? is that disqualifying? or are we only worried about the important stuff like crowd sizes?
When?
Trump lied about something that could easily be disproven. Is he a complete idiot or is he nuts? He has to be one or the other.
Only a fool would cast a vote for or against based on that. We are going on 4 years of radical rule.
There is nothing else to vote on.
Projection, deflection, and denial of Biden and Harris lies and misinformation
Harris and Walz both lied about something that could be easily disproven, Are they complete idiots or nuts. Or are they to be held to a different standard? what's more important John, Crowd size or military service? Crown size or the southern border?
Freudian Trump slip,eh....
LOL
Just yesterday, Kamala Harris lied about the years old “ very fine people” trump comment that has been disproven countless times. Are you calling on her to drop out because of it?
No, just simple dumbfuckery on my part.
Only the big cheese mucky muck Republicans are supposed to know they've measured Trump for crown sizing.
She is trying to help run the country AND run for president. Not a lot of spare time is my guess.
When is she going to start doing that?
Isn't Joe running the country?
How so?
"The border is secure" Both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Yet here you are obsessing over a lie about crowd size that affects no one; and changes nothing.
Can't claim the same about the Biden/Harris lies about the border.
He's actually both.
Yea, it's just one guy, no one else in government.
Where does the buck stop?
Behind the Doe?
If conservatives actually cared about lies and the liars that tell them, they would have booted Trump long ago. Sadly, it seems many conservatives love lying and liars as long as the lies being told are attacking those they have labeled as 'different'. Anyone who doesn't look like them, worship like they do, accept their warped version of reality as their own are fair game when it comes to attacking with anything. Lies, deep fakes, dishonesty, cheating, fake electors, even violently storming the capital to try and stop the peaceful transition of power that is a core foundation of our great nation and constitution, many conservatives couldn't care less. Most don't give a shit about anyone but themselves, which is why they are so enamored with a lying piece of shit like Trump, whatever it takes to stomp on the necks of those they hate, of those their religion hates and has labeled "sinners", it's clear they believe that the ends justify the means and there is nothing that embarrasses those who have no shame. Also, their overt willingness to accept and defend lies exposes them for the religious frauds most of them are.
"44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." - John:844
Conservatives are much more concerned with policies.
All "most" progressives have is media distortions and hate
Hitler famously gave Germany some "policies" they liked. You need a better starting standard.
Yeah, all I hear is lies and hate
As opposed to Stalin who gave Russia policies the people hated, but had no say in.
You need to recognize the importance of policies.
Ah yes, the inevitable Hitler comparison. Do tell, what policies either proposed by Trump or enacted by Trump are anywhere close to the same as any Hitler policies? Do tell...
Vic said the only thing that matters are Trumps policies. He invites the comparison to Hitler, so ask him.
As I recall, Trump allegedly said to one of aides, Kelly I think, that Hitler did some good things. I assume Trump was talking about policies and not invading other countries or trying a genocide.
keep digging Vic
Probably like Hitler getting Germany out of the Great Depression, while FDR couldn't do the same for the US.
But the fact remains POLICY is far more important than PERSONALITY.
All of this because you hate Trump.
Is there anything you won't do to beat him?
Actually that's not what he said. He said that conservatives are more interested in policies than lies. You're the one who conflated that the the only thing that matters and bringing in the comparison to Hitler.
Ask Vic if Trump's utter lack of moral character should disqualify him for office. If he says no then it is all about policies isnt it.
keep digging
unethical unhinged behavior is not "personality". Why dont you just say his only issue is he makes mean tweets.
Says the guy who would rather have a demented old man, who opened the southern border and destroyed the American dollar, than this so-called character flawed man who did a lot for the country.
I don't think you even know why you hate Trump anymore.
There is no issue with Trump.
I do have an issue with about 20% of the population who went to college and became Marxist pawns.
I say their terms are acceptable.
I dont "hate" Trump. I think he is a piece of shit as a human being but that does not necessarily equate with hate.
He is totally unfit to hold office in the United States. Maybe he can go to NK and overthrow the rocket man.
I can only imagine what it would be like if you did.
I think he is a piece of shit as a human being but that does not necessarily equate with hate.
That is good to know. That might mean I don't hate murderers, thieves and democrats.
He is totally unfit to hold office in the United States.
75 million voters disagree.
Maybe he can go to NK and overthrow the rocket man.
Or maybe he could go to Washington and overthrow Masoud Pezeshkian

I would say if you're going to use the quote then you should use the FULL quote. But can we expect fair treatment in the partisan world?
The full quote is :
Seems very clear in reading it that he would on day one issue executive orders to close the border and to open drilling. That's the extent of his "dictatorship". Not quite as harsh as the Dem's would like to paint it as. Maybe you should give a rats ass about facts and truth.

A man was stabbed in the abdomen outside the Randall's Island migrant shelter in New York City , just two weeks after a deadly shooting unfolded at the same site.
At approximately 10:33 a.m. on Sunday, officers responded to a 911 call for an assault at Randall’s Island Field 82, within the confines of the 25th precinct.
Upon arrival, officers observed a 26-year-old male victim with a stab wound to the abdomen, a spokesperson for the New York City Police Department (NYPD) confirmed to Fox News Digital.
EMS transported the victim to NYC Health and Hospitals + Harlem in stable condition.
"There are no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing," the spokesperson added Monday.
Last week, officers searched the Randall's Island migrant shelter for drugs and weapons, forcing the approximately 3,000 adults housed at the facility to wait outside. But police said no contraband was found in the Aug. 2 sweep. As migrants max out their time in the shelter, they've set up tents and camps just outside despite officials warning that camping is not allowed.
Man stabbed at NYC migrant encampment by Randall’s Island shelter weeks after deadly shooting nearby (msn.com)
And the other 100,000+ stabbings per year in the US, any aspersions about those to toss in?
Don't be silly, Americans are allowed to stab, shoot, and commit murder. Immigrants are not.
Let me ask a simple question, how many could they stab if they weren't here?
That is what some do not understand.
The same number. They'd just be doing the stabbing elsewhere.
Why aren't as upset with the other 99,999 stabbing each year by Americans?
And that is exactly the point, those stabbing are 100% preventable here.
Who says we aren't as upset? but they aren't 100% preventable, that is the point.
random murder victim : "I'm so happy to hear I wasn't killed by an illegal immigrant"
The point the Biden/Harris sycophants are so desperately trying to avoid is the fact you couldn't be killed by an illegal immigrant if the worthless piece of shit had just done his fucking job.
They weren't preventable.
Illegal immigrants aren't supposed to be here.
What logic.
So you don't give a shit about the victim, you just care about location.
Oh, okay, please post links to your comments concerning all those other stabbings.
So if you could only prevent 50% it wouldn't be worth it???
30 years ago an illegal alien raping an underage girl would have drawn bipartisan outrage.
Now many progressives say "who cares? It happens all the time. Let's give Kamala more money to fly in more illegals so it happens more often."
Bizarre times.
Random murder victims are even more happy to hear that Democrats don't give a shit about them- unless they were murdered by a conservative.
And no one would die in car accidents if we didn't drive, no one would ever die in a plane crash if we stopped flying in planes, and no women would be raped if we cut off every mans dick, and no one would ever drown if we got rid of all water on the planet.
The fact is, the majority of illegal immigrants in this country didn't get here by crossing the border illegally, they got here by overstaying a visa and millions come from other countries like Canada.
For 7th Consecutive Year, Visa Overstays Exceeded Illegal Border Crossings
"Since more than one half of all US undocumented residents arrive by air, visa-issuing posts have become the real frontline deterrent to undocumented migration," the study concludes.
For 7th Consecutive Year, Visa Overstays Exceeded Illegal Border Crossings : NPR
Also, undocumented immigrants commit less crime per capita than native Americans.
Immigrants are significantly less likely to commit crimes than the U.S.-born
Immigrants are significantly less likely to commit crimes than the U.S.-born - Northwestern Now
So with that fact maybe the infamous Trump quote should really read:
“When America shows you its people, they’re not showing their best. They’re not showing immigrants. They’re not represented by the undocumented. They’re people that have lots of problems, and they’ve already got those problems among us. They buy, sell and use lots of drugs. They’re committing crimes. They’re rapists. They're deplorables. And some, I assume, are good people.”
Sigh.......You are conflating Immigrants who have followed the law and gone through the process to immigrate and Illegals who are more likely to commit crimes than those born here because the fact you are so desperately trying to avoid is 100% of them are criminals.
"The same number. They'd just be doing the stabbing elsewhere."
and then that would not be a problem here in the USA
So you just ignored dismayed patriot's factual and thoughtful rebuttal at 8.1.14.
They're not the feral cats you call them.
There are enough people already here that cause problems, why add more?
Feral Cats is a good description,
Because that's racist and THEY ARE NOT THE ONES CAUSING PROBLEMS IN THE MAJORITY OF CASES
but why should they be here?
Overcrowding is a major problem. For example even after getting a lot of rain from the hurricane we are on water use restriction
Ukraine has forced itself to negotiate with Russia. The incursion into Kursk may dull the sting but time has apparently run out for Ukraine.
The United States no longer has any control over Israeli restraint. That fact must give pause in Tehran.
The euphoria of being rid of Joe Biden is beginning to fade. The indications are that after the DNC convention next week, the race will return to where it was before Biden was dumped. Early voting can't start early enough for Kamala Harris.
We have astronauts trapped on the ISS while Boeing is being grilled for lapses in safety and quality control; the press is trying to keep those two issues separated. There is growing expectation of a COVID resurgence this fall but it's coming too late to influence the election. The southern United States is underwater but that has nothing to do with sea level rise. The financial shysters are pleading for help again; apparently they've sucked all the disposable income out of the economy and fear missing quarterly profit projections. China is building factories in Mexico to bypass tariffs and, somehow, that is attracting more illegal immigrants to the United States. Trump is still under threat of political incarceration so it shouldn't be a surprise if Vance is allowed to be a bit of a loose canon; yes there is still time for a race between Harris and Vance.
F ormer President Donald Trump intends to file a lawsuit against the Justice Department for the August 2022 search it carried out at his Mar-a-Lago estate, after a Trump-appointed judge threw out criminal charges brought against the ex-president for allegedly unlawfully withholding White House documents at his Florida property.
Trump filed a notice saying he intends to sue the DOJ for $100 million, according to a copy of the memo obtained by Forbes, alleging the search was carried out with “clear intent to engage in political persecution.”
The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago in August 2022, recovering more than 11,000 White House documents, including 103 classified ones, after it previously subpoenaed Trump for his remaining classified documents but had reason to believe he didn’t turn all of them over.
Investigators obtained a warrant for their search, but Trump alleges the search was “inconsistent with protocols used in routine searches of an investigative target's premises,” and the FBI’s conduct was “a severe and unacceptable intrusion that is highly offensive to a reasonable person.”
The lawsuit comes weeks after U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the DOJ’s criminal charges against Trump for keeping White House materials at Mar-a-Lago and allegedly obstructing the investigation into those documents, which came out of the Mar-a-Lago search.
The DOJ will have 180 days to respond to the memo and for the two sides to reach a resolution, which legal expert Lisa Rubin told MSNBC Monday means it’s unlikely Trump will be able to file a full lawsuit for six months.
The Justice Department has not yet responded to a request for comment.
Trump Intends To Sue DOJ Over Mar-A-Lago Search (msn.com)
It's always stuck me as odd that the National Archives and DOJ were so quick to target Trump while others have been found to have the same thing for a longer period of time without the slightest whisper.
It was very odd.
They knew everything Trump took but had no idea what Biden took.
Even the National Archives is run by ideologues.
Another frivolous lawsuit from the POS
They aren't expensive to file.
They should be
or the fines for filing them should be
To me, at least, America appears to be a litigation lawyer's heaven. Your coffee was too hot? SUE!!! The elevator got stuck for 5 minutes? SUE!!! You had to wait too long for the bus to come? SUE!!! And as I saw in the movie Erin Brockovich they can grab up to 40% of the proceeds. Canadian lawyers can only get their hourly rate and out-of-pocket expenses. And if a trivial matter is brought to court not only will it get laughed out of court but the judge will impose a requirement for the lawyer HIMSELF bringing a bullshit case to court to personally pay not only all the court costs but also reimburse all the opposing lawyer's fees and expenses. As you can imagine, trivial cases are almost never brought in Canada.
Yep, that is why we have so many worthless piece of shit ambulance chasers, Sorry, personal injury lawyers. they are the bottom feeders of the profession, they take money from those who need it to line their own pockets at best, and extort companies for money at worst. Lawyer jokes were designed specifically for them.
Speaking of lawyer jokes, I've got a couple..
Q What do you call 600 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
A A good start
Q Why don't the sharks touch them?
A Professional courtesy
Q What's the difference between a lawyer and a prostitute?
A A prostitute won't screw you when you're dead.
You are absolutely right. In America Lawyers have way too much influence in everything.
I have heard that in France where lawyers are simply asked questions at trial, people can't believe what American lawyers make.
LOL, here are a few more:
Q What do you call a lawyer who doesn't chase ambulances?
A Retired
Q How many lawyer jokes are there?
A Only 3, the rest are true.
Q Why don't lawyers play hide n seek?
A Because nobody will look for them.
What I really wanted when I was back in practice in Toronto was a T-shirt with the Shakespeare quote from Henry VI, Part 2 “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” This one doesn't do the job right. It should be a black T-shirt with bigger bolder white lettering.
The bard was ahead of his time. The only problem is a personal injury lawyer would sue him and take away his profits and rights to the line.
Then he would also be a personal "insult" lawyer.
Here's an example I just saw today on USA Today:
The NYPD reported 30 antisemitic incidents across the city in July, three times higher than the 10 anti-Jewish hate crimes reported during the same month last year, as the increase in antisemitism in New York continues nearly 10 months after the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war on Oct. 7.
Last month, Jews were targeted in more hate incidents than all other groups combined, as they have been nearly every month since October 2023.
There were 52 total hate crimes reported to police last month, including five targeting Asians, one against Black people, five based on gender, eight based on sexual orientation, one based on religious bias and two against white people. The NYPD did not record any hate incidents against Muslims or Hispanic people.

There is a primary today in Minnesota...
and moderates are starting to show up at democrat primaries.
Those in the hotseat are concerned.
Republicans and independents can vote in Dem Minnesota primary. This might get interesting.
Thread @1.1 locked for slapfighting.
I see that Harris is backing away from earlier claims that she wanted Medicare for All implemented. Wonder what this will do for her support from the Bernie Bro's and other hard liberals?
Thing is her psycho path followers know she has promoted this in the past, and if she does not follow through, they will do their normal response and start burning and looting.
Happens every time the little babies do not get their way

Ah yes…… the old standby ‘outside agitators’ that you can never seem to prove.
the truth is the truth
With 83 days to the election the Harris campaign and our dishonest media show no signs of letting Kamala do an interview.
Shows no signs..of letting her. ..???
After all this criticism of Harris for "avoiding to do an interview"-- now its being admitted that it's not Harris' fault-- that she wants to do an interview- - but the media won't let her?*
Whatever politician said that is truly "C uckoo for Cocoa Puffs"
