Posts: 1129McCarthy and Skynet?
Speaking of political career meltdowns, here is a funny excerpt from Rick Wilson (Lincoln Project).
- He first tell us that, "Kevin McCarthy made an announcement on social media somewhere and says he gonna join/work with Silicon Valley and help craft A.I. Regulation/Legislation"
He then laughingly goes on to say, "Oh God!...Skynet and the T1 [and Judgment Day T2's] Terminators may as well just show up NOW, and kill us all." (...kkkk!)
Yeah, just what the world needs, "a Kevin McCarthy", taking their Republican "Frankenstein politics" to the world of AI...'"God help us indeed!!!"

Posts: 1129Flordia Repubs and DeStantis meltdown?
For Florida Repubs and Ron DeSantis, all is not well as of late. So could a DeSantis/Repub Florida meltdown be coming?
What with DeSantis' 2024 presidential campaign run being a huge flop, having been in a downward trajectory since its inception having been on equal footing with Trump, financial backing drying up and now finds itself last, in some polls running behind Nikki Haley (who according to Vivek Ramaswamy, is "Dick Cheney in 3-Inch Heels"). Is his political career is on the ropes?
But hey, I'm not one to believe in polling numbers so he may very well "a punchers chance". But with Haley nipping at his heels and being down 50+ points to the original "OG grifter" front runner, is this really just the least of DeSantis's problems?
With his lack of attention to the state, weak governorship and mounting problems everyday Floridians are facing at home, while he tries to prop up a brutally failing campaign, it has not gone unnoticed by Floridians.
Followed by recent Florida RNC Chairman, Zielger's sexual assault, rape allegations and LGBTQ 3-threesomes with wife Bridget Ziegler, has only inflamed and underscored the hypocrisy of their "Christian family values", "war on woke", "war on Don't Say Gay" bills and anti-LGBTQ legislation.
Now it should be said, that while Ron DeSantis had hand picked Christian and Bridget Ziegler (two buffoons for public positions they have no business holding) and it is relevant that Bridget is (or was) "bestees" with Casy DeSantis. Again calling into question his due diligence when "hiring" , the "qualifications" of his appointments and thus his governorship.
Although it's refreshing to see the MSM haven't yet maligned, disparaged and accused the DeSantis', of also engaging in LGBTQ 3-threesome, by just being the Zielger's "friends and bestees adjacent", unlike what the MAGA Repubs are doing with Hunter Biden and his father.

But the die is cast and the spectre of Zielger's LGBTQ hypocrisy and political fallout for Desantis will loom like a dark cloud over his campaign, despite any last minute feeble heroics, to "lash out" at Trump", during the bogus Fox News Channel town hall.

Posts: 5483Trump promises to do in Trump 2 what Biden has already done in Biden 1
In keeping with the classic Republican move since forever, Repub Trump's 2 big campaign promises are things Dem Biden has already shouldered all the heavy lifting and assumed all the political risk to accomplish.
Trump talks dictatorship, abortion at Fox town hall
https://www.courthousenews.com/trump...fox-town-hall/
"Im gonna be a dictator for one day. Were gonna do two things: the border, were gonna make it so tight, youre not gonna come in unless you come in legally, and the second is energy, were gonna drill baby drill. And then Im not gonna be a dictator anymore, the hotel mogul and onetime reality TV star said.
1. Illegal border crossings are already way down under Biden. Despite confusion about it in numbskull minds like that of Elon Musk, the high migrant crossings occurring now are not "illegal" until and unless their claim of refugee status is investigated and denied. Which, thanks to Trump gutting that process on his way out previously, takes a lot more time and requires a lot more staff and facilities than before. Otherwise, Biden would be violating International Human Rights Law and Treaty as it is required he obey by the USA Constitution.
That is the system repeatedly affirmed by Repub Congresses and why any reformation of it must begin in the Repub Getting Smaller and Smaller All The Time Pink Tinkle House.

2. The United States is producing more oil than any country in history.

Last month, weekly US oil production hit 13.2 million barrels per day, according to the US Energy Information Administration. Thats just above the Donald Trump-era record of 13.1 million set in early 2020 just before the Covid-19 crisis sent output and prices crashing.
And, imagine that, without anyone in America becoming a dictator for so much as 1 minute, much less one day or the broad USA Stock Market Crashing into a 20%+ Bear Market as it did in December 2018.

"Oh yes. And if only we had elected MittWitt back in 2012 his sterling Repub economic policies and stewardship might just about now be seeing his Party's 2008 skyrocketing unemployment rate declining to below 6%!
Impressive.
Uh. He is so dumb he doesn't even know one of the reasons his Party and its beloved benefactors in Mainstream Media has forced Biden to shift to campaigning (for now) on Trump and his and MittWitt's Party's existential threat to democracy at home and around the world is because they can not deal with and refute him campaigning on Biden's Historic Great Dem Economic Recovery, Expansion and Jobs Creation after being handed another Great Repub Crash and Massive Jobs Destruction and "Once in 100 Years Disaster. ".
BTW, unless Biden mentions it wherever possible won't the American Electorate wonder, gee, why are so many states feeling obligated to follow the Constitution and avoid breaking the law by not putting your boy on the ballot?
I mean, what with everyone supposedly having forgotten all about the only 3-4 "accomplishments" of Trump's entire so-called presidency; adding Trillions to the deficit with nothing to show for it, producing at least two huge spikes in crime and border crossings (the latter really being his Repub Congress' responsibility), the creation of Trump's Pandemic and the resulting deaths and worldwide economic, supply-chain collapse and Inflation and, oh yes, his attempted overthrow of American democracy culminating in the day his efforts incited a violent, cop-killing mob of Repub Insurrectionists to storm and attack the Capitol while he sat on his butt for more than 3 hours doing absolutely nothing to stop it, enjoying it, cheering them on, all more violations of his Oath of Office and why and how he disqualified himself from holding elected office again.
Until his Repub Justices on the Supreme Court twist themselves into the usual Repub Twisty McPretzels on their penchant for carving out one time only exceptions for their (your) Party's clearly unfit for office candidates, that is."

The Republican assault on free and fair elections instigated by Donald Trump is gathering pace, with efforts to sabotage the normal workings of American democracy sweeping state legislatures across the US.
A year that began with the violent insurrection at the US Capitol is ending with an unprecedented push to politicize, criminalize or in other ways subvert the nonpartisan administration of elections. A year-end report from pro-democracy groups identifies no fewer than 262 bills introduced in 41 states that hijack the election process.
Which does not bode well for Repubs this year considering the Dems have now learned what all those anti-democratic Repub tricks and cheats were in 2022 and how to surmount them even more successfully this time.

Florida GOP Chair, Christian Ziegler gets the boot and is forcibly ousted from office against his will, amid sexual and rape allegations, and now entangled with video voyeurism laws.

Now really Repubs, what was that so difficult?
Now just think how much better off the country would have been, had Repubs (grown some cojones and) done the same with Trump, the dude, who's actually been found liable of sexual abuse, months ago...sheesh!

Posts: 2579The FUCKING temerity woww the whole world is laughing theirs fucking asses off
"Hey, I have gone on record only crediting 90%-95% of the deaths, worldwide economic collapse, massive jobs destruction and resulting Inflation from Trump's Pandemic on Trump himself. Not 100%. "Make sure I win" Xi picks up the remaining 5%-10%.
What should happen to Trump and Repubs? Again. I have been quite specific about that; Trump should be convicted for every crime he has gleefully admitted he committed, which should find him in leg-irons sitting in a prison cell for a long, long time.
We can add never being allowed to hold political office again re the 14th Amendment to the Constitution as well.
Otherwise, the best America and the world can ever expect to get out of the Repub Party is for it to never occupy the White House again, never hold more than 20-25 seats in the Senate and more than about 60 seats in the House. Ever. Any more presence of Repubs than that in the Federal Government adds immeasurable amounts of danger and risk of historic economic and national security disaster. Obviously.
For me, the DOJ and the criminal code, what Biden did is not a crime because there is zero evidence of him KNOWINGLY packing and / or storing top secret documents in an unsafe place OR RETAINING them despite the proper authorities requesting they be returned.
Period.
By stark contrast, once Trump was requested to return the top secret documents packed and being stored in his toilet, he lost that UNKNOWINGLY status and his delaying the return of them for MONTHS as well as ignoring the subpoena to return them locked him inarguably into the illegal RETAINING of them status.
Both of which are crimes.
Now, on the Supreme Court Justices who overturned Roe V Wade, they along with any living presidents who appointed them or their (the Justices' and the Presidents') nearest living relatives should be billed for full child support until age 18 and 4 years at an accredited university for every child born to a female who signs an affidavit stating she would have gotten an abortion but for any difficulty whatsoever securing one in a safe and clean medical facility within 10 miles of her place of residence until 22 years after free abortions are legally and easily available in every state of the country.
That is no more reasonable response to that SCOTUS decision. ".

"I love that Repub Numbskull Trump is such a numbskull that he hasn't figured out what his 'winning' a Federal Appeals Court or SCOTUS ruling that, indeed, the President of the United States of America enjoys complete prosecutorial immunity for anything he / she wishes to do as POTUS would probably mean for him.
LOLOL.
Apparently he is so delusional, demented and cognitively impaired that he has forgotten Joe Biden IS the POTUS right now! LOL.
I guess Sleepy Joe will enjoy Carte Blanche and a 100% free pass under Trump's Historic Presidential Immunity Ruling when he not only orders Trump and his entire Crime Family incarcerated for a few days before their public execution along with an assurance that the exact same fate will befall any members of Congress who so much as hints at Impeaching him for it.
Lolol.
As usual, Repub Numbskull Trump has not exactly thought this through as much as, say, a normal human being might. ".

Even a partisan hack like you must have been shocked to see Trump's poll numbers where they are at given at all his indictments. I am sure you have some bullshit excuse for why that is, but for those of us on planet earth, it is the DOJ is out of control. A vote for Trump is a vote against the DOJ.
I am just wondering with you Tooms where is it enough. Should Trump be jailed for life? Should he be executed? How about those Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe V. Wade? Should they be jailed or executed?

Joe, you have presided over a record decline in Violent Crime and Homocide as President and, as a Senator, produced legislation that triggered a historic decline in violent crime beginning in 1994.
Don't blow it now by releasing or pardoning any of Trump's violent, cop-killing Insurrectionist mob and turning them loose back into society before they have paid their well-earned and well-deserved debt to it:

"hostages". LOL. What blithering, America-hating loons Trump and his cult followers are. ".
You left America when Hussein the Muslim was in the Oval office (not that anyone would blame you) and have never returned (Thank Allah).
So don't even go calling some of the finest American Patriots America haters!!
Post script so what kind of double entendre is Scumbag Joe and "Homocide" in the same sentence?
BTW I'm sure most will say don't fucking pardon me for a sentence handed down from your kangaroo court, leave that for Our Lord and Savior!!
