Bombshell:Dem Convention Protests for Palestine
Oh yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how the Democrats deal with the Hamas Wing of their own party. Also, will Joe Biden show up and attempt to speak?

Trump is getting torched in the polls
Real Clear Politics has Harris up by 1% in the national average. Trump winning 5 of the 7 swing states, and up by 0.6% overall in them. Crucially, the vast majority of voters think the country is on the wrong track, 65-25%.

Why do so many of Trump's former Cabinet officers refuse to endorse him?
Ah yes, an OP citing the well known and non-partisan Maddow Blog... ...anything to deflect from an actual discussion of policy and positions on important issues.

True, but he dropped out a month ago.

The Tim Walz thread.
And the first thing out of Mayor Pete's mouth is "b-b-but Trump!". Then Jesse Ventura says, "b-b-but Trump!". I notice that nobody in that clip actually served with Walz. Why is that? Nobody is disputing the 24 years that Walz put in. They ARE disputing the suspicious timing and reasoning for his abrupt departure. Whe he did not fulfil his 6 year commitment to the Guard. And his constant (not just one slip up, Mayor Pete) references to himself as a CSM and combat veteran. How about listening to those who actually knew Walz at that time- his unit chaplain, his CO, his immediate superior in the chain of command? They are all in agreement that Walz slunk away to avoid deployment overseaes. Pay attention to the first hand accounts, not the latecomers and political operators. ETA: the commentator also gets some very basic facts wrong. Calling Vance an "ivy league brat" when serving in the Marines. In fact, Vance enlisted after high school from 17 to 21 years old, completed his enlistment, then went to college. And then, inevitable, "b-b-but Trump" for most of his time. Give it a rest. Look at the facts and the eyewitness accounts.

Bombshell:Dem Convention Protests for Palestine
But one of those things is a direct result of the other. Gaza would be untouched if Hamas and their Gazan supporters had not attacked Israel.

The Tim Walz thread.
I read the letters he sent my grandmother, describing the conditions and how they faced the U-boats in convoy. How you behaved depended in large part on the cargo you were carrying. His ship was carrying artillery shells when it was torpedoed in 1943. He answered the call and paid for it. My cousin was in the Militia and answered the call. His unit was sent to Afghanistan. He was shot 3 times by a terrorist but at least he survived. That's why Walz running away irks me.

The Tim Walz thread.
Mi e too. He was interested Merchant3 Marine on the Atlantic. He didn't shirk his duties or leave his shipmates hanging.

The Tim Walz thread.
No doubt Walz is good on the stump. A very effective speaker and far better than Harris. Too bad he is being called a coward by the members of his old Guard unit. Even the unit chaplain has no time for him. If/when he ever does an interview he may have some tough questions to answer. He served for 24 years with dignity, but the ending and subsequent period are not good. The time sequence is not in dispute- his unit got told to prepare for deployment, he did an 'end around' of his immediate superior to file his retirement papers, he quit, his unit was deployed. Does not look good for a senior NCO at all.

Elon & Trump's Spaces Chat Hammers ‘defective’ Democrats
Hiding from journalists, hiding from questions...she has also been caught ditching her press pool to go to events, which is not good. What does she have to hide? Why can't she spare 30 minutes to talk to a real journalist and answer real questions? JD managed to do 3 interviews, all rather tough and adversarial, on Sunday morning alone. Where are shirker Tim and silent Kam?

Yes, brave brave Tim. Serves with no trouble for 24 years. Then, when he hears his unit will be sent overseas, he suddenly decides to quit, in the middle of his enlistment, leaving his unit up sh!t creek. Then has the temerity to lie about both his rank and his service afterwards. No wonder he refuses to face any tough questions.

Are you cereal? Joy Reid, The View harpies, Joe Scarboro, Rachel Maddow, George Stephanopoulos, Dana Bash.... neither she nor the shirker Walz would face anything other than a lavish tongue bath.

Elon & Trump's Spaces Chat Hammers ‘defective’ Democrats
You may be right. I saw an interview with one of my favourite Canadians, Kevin O'Leary. He agreed that, as long as the donation money is flowing, and there is no pushback, the wise political move (at least in the short run) is to keep getting away with it. But from a perspective of, God forbid, informing the voters and engaging in a genuine political debate, it is execrable. And may set them up for some unpleasant surprises in September and October.

Yeah, since Musk is not a trained journalist, Harris or Walz should be able to destroy him, right? But no, they dont even go on gentle and partisan shows like MSNBC. It is a callback to Joe’s basement campaign of 2020. I think they are trying to hide until the convention next week.

Exactly. Especially compared to the interviews the Democratic candidates have given...... oh.... never mind.

JD Vance in full drag while attending Yale Law School
His opponent VP quit in the middle of his Guard enlistment, AFTER he learned they were soon deploying to Iraq. Vance showed up in Iraq. Walz stayed home.

Actually, you can tell a"real " man by his character. For example, whether or not he fulfills contracts and obligations. Or does he quit in the middle at the first sign of danger?

Time ‘propaganda’ profile of Kamala Harris ripped for ‘worshipping’ Dem nominee
Wonder why this photo never made the article... Kamala and her partner in adultery. The only reason she rose in California politics was banging Willie Brown.

Is Vance a major liability?
Actually, lifting yourself from grinding poverty and abuse, serving honourably in the Marines, graduating from Yale, and being successful in the private sector. Compare to the Democrat team . And he shows up. Did all three Sunday morning news shows, all with tough and adversarial journalists. Where were Walz and Harris?

What do you mean by 'gone'? If Harris looks like she will win, I will definitely sell my investments in the US markets. But bail from AN? Come on, man. It's just politics.- Trump is getting torched in the polls
