You might like to see some of this... a recent ride in Kurdistan.

Thugs gonna thug.

Their comeuppance is coming, though, and hell's coming with it.

"It doesn't matter what happens in this Republican runoff.
We already know who we're running
against.

The billionaire mega donors and
their corrupt political system. Not
any one politician, not any one
political party.

We are running against
the broken system and the powerful
people who broke it. They're
scared of the movement we are building.

They're going to throw everything they
have at us. They're going to call me a
radical leftist. They're going to call
me a fake Christian.

They'll call our movement un-American. They'll
call us a threat. The only truth is we
are a threat.

We're a threat to their corrupt system.

2,000 years ago, when the powerful few
at the top hurt those at the bottom,
that barefoot rabbi didn't stay in his
room and pray.

He walked into the seat
of power and flipped over the tables of
injustice.

To those to those who love this state,
to those who love this country, to those
who love our neighbors, it's time to
start flipping tables.

Thank y'all for
being here. Thank you for being in this
fight. God bless y'all. Thank you."

excerpt from a powerful speech

Victory Party LIVE: James Talarico for US Senate

#77

I would point out that one of the most Killfiled posters on the site, trailing only Shrimpdick and Fartfish (sounds like a couple of Chinese entrees)... really hasn't the credibility around here to be taken seriously in anything he vomits on the pages.

- we'll get hit by an Iranian terrorist attack.

One might get rich betting on that eventuality.

So, it turns out that Dem's winning secret is... Turnout.

(as noted in #50, more independents, Republicans, young people, and new voters than ever)

Their avg turnout in recent years has been less than a million votes in this Primary... this time it was 2.3 million.

And it seems that Hispanics and Blacks and young people may have repented of their Trump support in TX... perhaps elsewhere, too.

And Donald today offered to help; he said HE would pick between the GOP candidates, and the loser will have to drop out.

Removing the choice from mere mortal voters.

Hey... if you aren't planning on having an Election, or at least are planning on Rigging the Election... then who cares about silly polls*?

(* not Jeff; that would be silly Poles)

btw... the first link above says 'sleep', but it's also for diet and weight loss; a couple of years ago I lost 50 lbs in about 7 mos to get under 200 (I'm 6'3")
just by drinking coffee and eating dark choc until 2 oclock, the eating whatever over the next 4 hours... and I'm still under 200.

And the link in 8 is a quick eye exercise that werks for 75 percent of people... your brain uses a lot of neurons every day to position and balance the body... which isn't helpful when you are trying to go to sleep.

The eye trick tells those neurons to shut down.

- She was crushing him until she lost. At one point it was +10% in early voting.

"We have recruited more than 28,000
volunteers who are organizing in every
community across this state. and we have
shattered grassroots fundraising records
all without taking a dime from corporate
pacs.

The number of young people
who showed up to vote in this election
is unprecedented.

The number the number of Texans who have
never voted before but showed up in this
election is unprecedented.

The number of independents and Republicans who voted
in this Democratic primary is
unprecedented."

from #3.... apparently that's how one defies the polls.

His best line, imnsho, is about how our politics is not Left vs Right, but Top vs Bottom.

That's something all sorts of voters can hang onto.

Interesting he went after Stephen 'Goebbels' Miller, too, and rightly so.

One supposes we can chart Trump's polls and see just how low they have to go before Republicans in Congress grow a pair.

Running simulations they are:

#13 (because I can drag you outta your hole anytime I want)

The Voter Suppression in this case is a Republican Rule change that forced voters to vote their own districts rather than the previous freedom to vote anywhere in Dallas.

Anything to make voting more difficult.

- Stephanie Minter.

Was, according to the statistics in #79, about 20 percent more likely to have been murdered by a US Citizen than an undoc immigrant.

But Jeffy is an Outlier Outrage kinda guy.

#144

Intuition is also a powerful tool... wonder where it comes from?

Voters said they were pretty happy with both candidates, and would have support whomever won against the Complete Criminals on the Republican side.

And apparently the Voter Suppression for both candidates was obvious to voters... and something we are going to see on a grand scale in November... well, if there's actually an election then.

Of course, were Dems to take the Congress, Trump's Reign of Terror would be over, so I for one will not be surprised whatever he does to stay in power.

#142

I still think it's so BJ will be happy either way.

#8

Ah, well... we do agree on some things ;)

#139

Picking cherries is a logical fallacy.... specifically a fallacy of suppressed evidence.

Key Fulfilled Prophecies
The Rise of Cyrus: The prophet Isaiah predicted Cyrus by name over 100 years before his birth, stating he would conquer Babylon and allow the Jews to return from exile.

Destruction of Tyre: Ezekiel accurately predicted that the city of Tyre would be besieged by Nebuchadnezzar, and later that its stones and timber would be thrown into the sea by a future conqueror (Alexander the Great).

Destruction of Nineveh: Nahum prophesied that the city would be destroyed by fire, which was fulfilled in 612 BC by a coalition of Babylonians, Scythians, and Medes.

The Fate of Jerusalem and the Jews: Jesus predicted the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem (fulfilled in 70 AD) and the subsequent scattering of the Jewish people among all nations.

much more at the second link

Some scholars, religious or not, document 2000 out of 2500 predictions fulfilled, others about 800 out of 1600.... so far.

#105

'What 'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?"

the sources in #79 are plainly stated as the National Academy of Sciences, the Conservative Libertarian CATO Inst, and Stanford Univ.

Murder rates for undoc immigrants come from the State of Texas.

You just don't like the facts they present... because you prefer Trump's divisive political lies instead.
