True... in most of Texas, JT is having to overcome his black woman status ;)

"AI Overview

Texas state Representative and U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico has condemned Israel's military actions in Gaza as "war crimes" and "atrocities," while supporting a sovereign Palestinian state alongside a secure Israel.

He opposes sending offensive weapons to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government and advocates for conditioning future military assistance."

What sucks is that the race is even close between an honest man and a criminal.

Will never figure out how America is supposed to work... also how to tie his shoelaces is problematic for him.

One supposes that coming from China where Government Corruption is Job One makes it difficult to grok what honest Government might look like.

"Trump last year raked in at least $1.4bn from his crypto ventures according to financial disclosure forms he filed in June. Simultaneously, about one million investors in a Trump crypto scheme suffered almost $3.8bn in losses as their volatile crypto holdings tanked in value.

Monetizing his presidency further this summer, Trump's Truth Social media business is pushing a new scheme that offers wealthy buyers special early access to his posts for a fee of $100,000 a month, which top Democrats and public interest groups say pose serious conflict of interest and corruption issues."

"On another monetization front, critics raised red flags about how Trump tapped his justice department to forge a potentially lucrative and sketchy deal to settle a $10bn lawsuit by Trump against the IRS about a leak of his tax returns that gives him and his family immunity from IRS audits of prior tax returns and could save him $100m.

Likewise some analysts are troubled by how Trump has circumvented the constitution's prohibition on foreign emoluments by accepting a $400m plane as a gift from Qatar, and how other wealthy foreigners have backed some Trump family hotel and golf deals abroad.

Beyond his personal enrichment, Trump's monetizing his office and transactional governing style has proved lucrative to his sons, some top advisers, billionaire buddies, big donors and other allies, say critics.

A CNN poll in late July buttressed criticism of Trump's monetizing his second term: the poll revealed that 66% of 1,225 respondents said Trump doesn't put the good of the country over his personal gain and only 34% said he does."

Well, only the Base supports still Make America Graft Again!

This is what Visitor and MSGT voted for.

The Trump Crime Family musta just gotten bribed, er, I mean 'invested' in a US drone maker.

- I'd love for someone to tell me I'm wrong.

You're not wrong; this war of choice to appease Israel and distract from the millions of still illegally unreleased Epstein Files has made the world much less safe and the US much more disrespected... and deservingly so.

Ukraine looks like world-beating military power more so than the US right now.

MAGA is a whiter shade of pale.

This guy really, really wants to be the next MAGA VP.

One day someone is going to figure up just how much in taxpayer dollars it cost us to lose all the frivolous and vindictive lawsuits DJT has filed.

"Historical data shows that standard macroeconomic indicators"including real GDP growth, job creation, and stock market returns"have averaged higher metrics under Democratic presidential administrations than Republican ones since World War II.

However, economists debate the direct causes, noting that external factors often drive these gaps.

Statistical Differences in Performance

GDP Growth: Real gross domestic product has historically grown at an average annual rate roughly 1.5 to 2 times faster under Democrats than Republicans.

Job Creation: Private-sector job growth rates have averaged significantly higher during Democratic terms.

Recessions: A higher proportion of modern U.S. recessions have begun during Republican administrations, though economic cycles often span multiple presidencies."

So... the smell finally got to her, eh?

Apropos of nothing...

Carlos Castaneda Interview with Theodore Roszak 1969

He's biting a whole warehouse full of pillows about now.

"The current debate over a possible Russian attack on NATO reflects the alliance's failure to maintain credible deterrence against its far weaker adversary amid an unprecedented rise in tensions over the invasion of Ukraine.

On paper, at least, this makes little sense. After all, the power of the NATO alliance completely dwarfs Russia's much smaller military and economic potential.

In practice, however, it is increasingly apparent that Putin has managed to seize the initiative in this unequal confrontation by exploiting the West's crippling fear of escalation."

Correction: should be, 'exploiting the West's mentally and morally crippled Leader in the WH.'

It's accomplishing something, but for Trump, not for DC or for America.

It riles up the goshdarn Base rural of rwingers; shows he knows how to treat the -------.

"Blanche's latest move reflects poorly on all of the Republicans who voted to confirm him"but especially Senators Bill Cassidy, John Cornyn, and Tom Tillis, who bought into the attorney general's promises to limit the scope of a different immunity for the president.

Blanche has demonstrated that he isn't the least bit interested in holding the president accountable for anything"let alone preserving transparency in government.

But we already knew that, didn't we?"

Obligatory:

Or as DJT calls it, 'dinner'.

Reading is your Friend, even if you find a convenient excuse not to do it.

At least then you could have made an Argument rather than merely a Whine.

Wow!
