    The media narrative this week was GOP in disarray.
    Failed votes.
    Then today.
    A DOJ special counsel said Biden is mentally unfit.
    Biden had the disaster presser.
    Both parties are in disarray.
    And yet, Trump had his best day in 4 years.
    MAGA is ascendant.

  7. I still don’t get how demented got a free pass on the document case. He took them when he was vp. A vp cannot have them; a president (under the pra) can. Every president has done so.

    Demented legal team argued that he was entitled to them under the pra (even though he was veep and it’s not applicable).

    They found more classified documents (or marked classified) than with president trump.

    I still,believe they were after the Russian hoax documents. However, trump was allowed to keep them.

    I still go back to Bondo Barr’s weird statement when he was on faux. “Trump legally could possess them, but he did not give the, back “fast enough’”

    It’s just weird because Biden used those documents to hawk a book

    So Jeff…How does she do on the national stage. She’s ultra liberal. Abortion will be her main campaign message. Does she sell outside of Michigan and wisconsin? Does she even need to. Locking down those two means she can lose GA, AZ, and then, once again it all comes down to NV and NE-2.

    I think she loses AZ and GA easily, and potentially NV. So the election could honestly come down to NE-2. Dems win its 270-268. Trump wins its 269-269 and the house elects him.
    ———————————-

    Vic…with the levels of corruption and zero accountability in the last many years in DC (including the coup plotters of the Russia Hoax). I have turned into an extremely cynical person politically. It’s hard for me to even think of what possibilities lie ahead for November outcomes until the January 6th trial is adjudicated.

    That being said…Whitmer is ultra liberal but it didn’t matter in Michigan in her re election even after how she handled Covid. I think any “reasonable” option other than Trump or Biden would be appealing to independent voters. Also, the RNC is not in a position to match the DNC ballot harvesting operation as of yet and that is a huge disadvantage. Finally, the RNC and Trump campaign are at a disadvantage financially. Ronna has ran the RNC into the ground and Trump has legal bills his PAC is paying…76 million thus far.

    Not commenting on the Putin interview “because you didn’t watch it” is truly stupid. As usual Bitter wants to sit on the fence and pretend he is holier than thou and give the interview some moral equivalency it doesn’t deserve.

    The fact Tucker the sniveling little Putin stooge is giving a dictator and war criminal a forum designed to justify an invasion and subsequent war crimes that have no justification should be condemned whether you watch or not.

    And you don’t have to eat a whole turd sandwich to know it is bad.

    We don’t have to watch (I didn’t) to know this is a sordid and shameless attempt to make Putin look good and make a bunch of excuses of why he started the war. Tucker himself announced that the interview was to “ask the question nobody has asked, why did you invade Ukraine” as if the “reason” has ANY relevancy.

    As such, it should be condemned, no “watching” required.

    Bitter can take his “I am a superior being because I don’t comment on an interview I didn’t watch” and GFH.

    The moral case for condemning this interview is overwhelming.

    What Tucker really thinks about Trump revealed in his texts/emails.

    • A defamation lawsuit is revealing scornful behind-the-scenes opinions by Fox News figures about Donald Trump, including a Tucker Carlson text message declaring, “I hate him passionately.”
    • Carlson said that “we are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights” and that “I truly can’t wait.”
    • Addressing Trump’s four years as president, Carlson said, “We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There really isn’t an upside to Trump.”
    • In another text exchange more than a month earlier, Carlson denigrated Trump’s business abilities: Trump’s talent, he said, is to “destroy things. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong.”

    But he is a slimeball who just wants ratings, and that is why he sold out to Putin.

An independent third party comes along and says, he can’t remember when he was vice president. He can’t remember when his own son passed away, and I can’t take this man in front of a jury because he’d be too sympathetic because he’s too old and forgetful and the jury would find that to be sympathetic.

    Looking at Morning Joe and all the other MSM talking heads defending Biden and attacking the SC as “partisan” makes me think Biden has enough support and is not going anywhere. This is aided by the fact there is no clear alternative that is manifestly better, certainly not Kamala, Whitmer, Newsome, etc.

    “Very bad decision,” a Ukrainian military captain told NatSec Daily. The captain, like others, was granted anonymity to avoid retaliation or to provide their unvarnished opinion.

    Another person knowledgeable of Syrskyi’s operations echoed that view. His appointment is unlikely to have a positive effect for Ukraine, as Syrskyi is seen by those on the frontlines as a stern Soviet-style general who callously puts his men in danger.

    This person added that Ukrainian troops have given Syrskyi a gruesome nickname: “Butcher.” The captain confirmed that the nickname has stuck, as has “General200” — which stands for 200 dead on the battlefield.

    Zaluzhny was popular and not reckless with the lives of his men. However, all Zelenskyy wants to do is pursue his feckless war at the cost of Ukrainian lives. Women are protesting this change in military leadership. However, as Zelenskyy doesn’t like dissent, it’s only a small group defiantly standing up to him. I’m sure, though, Bitter and Jason will applaud a KGB type soldier (Syrskyi’s family still resides in Russia) to ruthlessly conduct the war Zelenskyy is demanding.

  83. Jan admitted that she was gullible for believing Zelensky owns 2 yacht but we are uninformed.

    This morning, I listened to a panel discussion of Polish political leaders on the BBC. Left, Right and Center all agreed that Putin had to be defeated in Ukraine because he is a threat and won’t stop there.

    During the news break, there was a story of Russian drone attacks on civilian areas. There was a description of families being burned to death in their apartments. I am sure Jan will blame Zelensky.

  85. A history lesson for Jan. Gen. McClellan was very popular with his troops because he was so cautious that there was less chance of being killed. The one time he was somewhat bold was at Antietam (a slaughter-fest win by the Union). But he failed to follow through when he could have destroyed Lee’s army so the war continued for almost 3 more years. Gen. Grant was also called a butcher but he was willing to fight and win. Union prisoners in Andersonville prison (really a Confederate concentration camp) were given “ballots” by their captors in 1864 because they expected to get a PR victory when the prisoners voted for McClellan. The Union POWs voted overwhelmingly for Lincoln because he was fighting to win and McClellan was a p*ssy willing to let the South win.

    I think Jan thinks not enough Ukrainians are being murdered, shelled, bombed, displaced, exiled, tortured, raped, and kidnapped by “freedom fighter”, “hero of democracy” and “misunderstood pussy cat” Putin.

    In the meantime the general who the people like is out, and the one doing Zelenskyy’s bidding, no matter the death toll, is head of the military.”

    So the generals executing war crimes in Ukraine are not doing “Putin’s bidding”?

    Note to Jan:

    Zelensky is the legitimate President of Ukraine and he has the right to appoint the military leaders responsible for opposing the Russian invasion.

    Personally, I think appointing someone more aggressive is appropriate because the general he replaced was more defensive than offensive. If the goal is to expel the Russians from Ukraine, and that SHOULD be the goal, then you want someone committed to doing that.

    If you are worried about the “death toll”, have you ever suggested Russia pull out of Ukraine? After all, that would end the “death toll”.

    I am sure Jan is celebrating, she loves news of Ukrainians being killed, is triggered by any posts showing Ukrainian victories.

  90. Jan would have freaked about Lincoln replacing popular Generals during the Civil War over the minor detail that they sucked and kept losing.
