- Since the Democrat members of the oligarchy don't want CU reversed it won't be.

"While a large majority of ultra-wealthy megadonors and billionaires do back the Republican Party, the broader American oligarchy encompasses wealthy individuals who fund both major political parties.

Data indicates a partisan split among the richest Americans

Republican-leaning billionaires: Historically and in recent election cycles, the majority of the top 100 wealthiest Americans who actively engage in federal campaign spending have favored Republicans and conservative causes.

High-profile tech and business moguls like Elon Musk have become significant financial backers of the Republican party, advocating for deregulation and lower taxes on capital gains.

Traditional conservative donors like the Koch family network also play a prominent role in funding GOP-aligned candidates and policy groups"

Can James Talarico Truly Hope to Win in Texas?
- Trae Crowder (Liberal Redneck)

"Like I'm saying even by MAGA 2026 standards Kim Paxton sucks. So naturally he won the Republican primary in a landslide and now moves on to the general where he will face every godless lefty's favorite church boy, James Talarico.

Talarico seems to be that rare breed of Christian who tries to live in
a Christlike manner. He believes in things like empathy, unity, compassion, uplifting the downtrodden.

So, you can see why Christian conservatives think he's the devil and must be stopped."

Spare rib you?

I said, 'most Dems', and there are enough to pass legislation advancing campaign finance reformS, even if it would take most of the states to pass a Constitutional Ammendment.

The two Parties are bad in enough in being too much the same without exaggerating the problem; it's bad enough as it is, but there are definitely more Dems that will support Campaign Finance Reform than there are GOPhers.

And there's nowhere enough third party voters to change anything at all.

Shady JD hasn't been right about anything since he called DJT, "America's Hitler".

Democrats are also willing to eliminate CU and pass Campaign Finance Reform... most of them, anyway.

And yes, Trucker Blowing Licenses have been a real thing since Visitor's Mom got rich doing it.

"Western armies, with their artillery and armoured vehicles, are out of date whereas "it is Ukraine that today has perhaps the most combat-ready army in Europe", wrote Oleg Dunda, a member of parliament for Ukraine, in The Spectator.

The US has more weaponry but Ukraine's army is unique in having adapted to the new, mostly electronic, unmanned systems that are the most successful elements of the Russian barrage.

A potential invasion of the Baltic states might not involve a single tank.

It will be unexpected: with communication blackouts, drone strikes on infrastructure and civilian convoys in uniform without identification marks," said Dunda.

"Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania may simply wake up as part of Russia. Without a single shot fired by Nato."

An invasion of the Baltics could happen at any time, including while Russia is still fighting in Ukraine.

Europe does not necessarily have much time to prepare but it is not necessary to spend 5% of GDP, as Nato chief Mark Rutte is pushing for, because drones cost a lot less than nuclear submarines and are more effective for the war ahead."

Well said, Lamp.

We should really Thank Trumpers for making us even more significant co-defendants in Israel's ongoing international criminal murders in Gaza.

"The primary obstacle to implementing UN Security Council sanctions is the United States' veto power.

As one of the five permanent members of the Security Council, the U.S. has a long history of vetoing draft resolutions critical of or seeking to penalize Israel, arguing that such measures are counterproductive to regional peace negotiations and disproportionate."

"Trump Calls in Ghislaine Maxwell for a Favor in $10B Lawsuit"

President Donald Trump is turning to convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell as he resurrects his lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal over an article about a lewd birthday letter bearing his signature sent to Jeffrey Epstein.

The president refiled his $10 billion lawsuit on Wednesday after a federal judge threw out his first lawsuit in April, finding he had not sufficiently alleged "actual malice," the legal threshold required in defamation suits involving public officials."

Visitor has a point.... anyone blowing truckers for a living should be required to qualify for the same Trucker Blowing license that he has!

These kids are the lucky ones, eh?

This same Big Ugly Bill killed at least 700,000 kids in Africa, most of whom died of starvation, also to pay for tax cuts for DJT and his fellow criminals.

Count your lucky stars, kids.

So... he's a con artist who loves gold; I see him heading the CIA soon.

"According to figures compiled by the Iranian Ministry of Health, at least 376 children were killed in U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iran during the conflict.

Of these casualties, over 100 schoolchildren were killed in a single missile strike on a girls' elementary school in Minab on February 28, 2026, which investigations indicate was carried out by U.S. forces."

I never said she couldn't lose at all, much less win in a landslide... but I know you are just being your facetious fun loving self.

You should howsomever, get that Jill Stein bruise offa your butt, and then maybe we could listen more to you.

"As the U.S. war in Iran drags on, Trump and Republicans risk making high gas prices caused by the conflict a focal point of the midterm election in November.

Republicans face an uphill fight to retain their slim majority in the House, and Democrats increasingly believe they have a path to take control of the Senate.

"I think they are starting to give us the things that they have to give us," Trump said of talks with Iran.

"And if they do, that's great, and if they won't, then the man on my left is going to finish them off," Trump said, signaling to his defense secretary, Pete Hegseth."

Private Pete is like his new Criminal Defense (War) Attny.

"Recent data confirms that a large majority of individuals arrested and detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) do not have criminal convictions.

While the exact percentage fluctuates, federal data indicates that up to 92% of recent ICE detention growth consists of individuals with no criminal record."

"And the thing that impressed me the most was his immediate comeback to Trump saying, "he's a vegan".

He said, "Look, I've been eating brisket since before Ken Paxton was first indicted."

Well, that that is very encouraging. I thought very very encouraging."
