A thoughtful response on why a long-time conservative radio host is voting for Kamala Harris.

Maybe they didn't see this quote from Trump? He's such a swell defender of our veterans. “Miriam, I watched (Sheldon Adelson, her late husband) sitting so proud in the White House when we gave Miriam the Presidential Medal of Freedom. That’s the highest award you can get as a civilian, it’s the equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor, but civilian version. It’s actually much better, because everyone gets the Congressional Medal of Honor – that’s soldiers. They’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets, or they’re dead.” -- Donald Trump

Milley was the General Trump appointed to be his chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. A patriot warning of the danger to America if Trump is elected in November. Trump also wanted to court-martial Stanley McChrystal and William McRaven (the man who got Osama bin Laden) just because they criticized him. Milley now fears if Trump is elected he will be court-martialed "for disloyalty." How much warning do we need before we listen? The mistake of Germany was not believing what Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf. Believe what these wanna-be dictators say before it is too late. The clip below shows some patriots putting country over the Republican party. We need more of them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/10/12/mark-milley-donald-trump-fascist/?utm_campaign=wp_evening_edition&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F3f46271%2F670ae3553959020cf5fc3054%2F596b0d51ade4e24119acc289%2F21%2F48%2F670ae3553959020cf5fc3054

Wrong. A conspiracy theory would say Putin owns Trump and Trump won't release the transcripts because Trump told Putin he could invade Ukraine whenever he liked as long as Putin destroyed the pee pee tape. In return Trump would get his minions and cult followers to support Russia in Russia's quest to destroy a freedom-loving sovereign nation.

The bigger issue is Trump meeting with Putin up to seven times after Trump left office. Putin is an adversary and has invaded Ukraine. Remember when Trump said John Kerry "should be prosecuted" for violating the Logan Act because of his conversations with Iran? Well if Kerry should be prosecuted so should Trump. But what is more worrisome is what Trump and Putin might have talked about in personal conversations that were not released when Trump was president. Trump went to extraordinary lengths to hide the details. "When he takes the interpreter's notes and wants to destroy them so no one can see what was said in written transcript, you know it raises serious questions about the relationship between this president and Putin." https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/01/13/trump-putin-meetings-interpreter-notes/2565471002/

No need to send your personal photos.

As Trump and Tucker Carlson like to say, "I'm just asking a question." https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/10/christopher-steele-donald-trump-russia-dossier-golden-shower

Do you think the pee pee tape could be real? As the coronavirus tore through the world in 2020, and the United States and other countries confronted a shortage of tests designed to detect the illness, then-President Donald Trump secretly sent coveted tests to Russian President Vladimir Putin for his personal use. “Trump was the most reckless and impulsive president in American history and is demonstrating the very same character as a presidential candidate in 2024.” -- Bob Woodward https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/10/08/bob-woodward-new-book-war-trump-putin-biden/?utm_source=alert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=wp_news_alert_revere&location=alert

I think you mean November 5. And I hope sanity wins.

I think you're forgetting MAL.

Sad that people are suffering from climate change but the Republicans and Trump are still calling it a hoax. Trump said climate change would just create “more oceanfront property.”

She immediately conceded after the votes were counted and she didn't call her supporters to the Capitol to stop the certification of the election. Trump was the first president in America's history to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Trump is still whining and pouting and lying 4 years later and has still not conceded the election that he lost fair and square. Do you see the difference?

I have a poor memory. Please post what you are referring to.

A president's words matter. https://time.com/5835244/accidental-poisonings-trump/

Maybe we should take a break for a laugh.

He did not say he was in favor of censorship. He was stating a fact that the first amendment is a major block to fighting misinformation. For instance people's health would be harmed if misinformation like this is allowed. "I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning? As you see, it gets in the lungs, it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that."

You must love splitting hairs Frank. I said show me and you're only telling me what I said. And in your post of John Kerry he did not say he was in favor of censorship. So you are spreading misinformation. Below is the quote from Kerry. Where does he say he's in favor of censorship? “You know, there’s a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities in order to guarantee that you’re going to have some accountability on facts, etcetera,” he said. “But look, if people only go to one source, and the source they go to is sick, and, you know, has an agenda, and they’re putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know, hammer it out of existence.”

Please tell me where I posted misinformation.

John Kerry was stating a truth. What's your problem with what he said? Do you have a problem with facts? “You know, there’s a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities in order to guarantee that you’re going to have some accountability on facts, etcetera,” he said. “But look, if people only go to one source, and the source they go to is sick, and, you know, has an agenda, and they’re putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know, hammer it out of existence.”

Please post the link for John Kerry wanting to change the 1st amendment to censor the media.

If dishonesty is your standard you have no shame then in supporting Trump.

It is not a lie to say Trump wants ABC to lose their license. Trump claimed the debate was "rigged" because the ABC News moderators fact checked several comments he made. "They ought to take away their license for the way they did that," Trump told Fox News. https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/fcc-chair-rejects-trump-call-pull-abc-licenses-over-presidential-debate-2024-09-19/

You're splitting hairs Frank.
