  1. An opinion based on nothing but misinformation as its just not true, that is a lie not an opinion.
  2. Thats you saying that not me. Young people are old enough to get married, join the military and fight for their country, they are also old enough to make choices for their rights by voting. While final figures are still pouring in, it is estimated that 27% of young voters aged 18-29 cast a ballot in 2022, making this the midterm election with the second highest youth voter turnout in almost three decades, after 2018. Support for Democrats was even higher among Black youth at 89% and Latino youth at 68%. Youth Voter Turnout in the 2022 Midterms Delivered Key Wins for Democrats An initial look at youth voting patterns shared by the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement at Tufts (CIRCLE) shows that young Americans ages 18-29 overwhelmingly backed Democrats for the U.S. House of Representatives. CIRCLE’s analysis of the Edison Research National Election Pool exit poll found that 63% of young Americans voted for a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House, while 35% of young Americans backed Republican candidates. With the threat of a national abortion ban on the horizon to far-right candidates promoting climate change denial and threatening to reject election results, according to organizers, there was an overwhelming understanding this cycle of “the stakes of the moment,” said Sunrise Movement’s 25-year-old national spokesperson Ellen Sciales. https://www.teenvogue.com/story/youth-voter-turnout-2022-midterms-democrats
  3. Your not a young person and certainly not a female young person voting for their rights so forgive me for ignoring your remark
  4. Biden, "Democracy is at stake" The people listened and made their vote. Thank God for the sensible who voted for democracy and especially for the younger voters who came out to help the process. Meanwhile MAGA are left to lick their wounds and blame themselves and what they should have done instead. Of course the same old election stolen will again crop up, tedious but like the flat earthers, now time to just ignore them and get the country running again.
  5. Best midterm performance for sitting party in 20 years Given that midterm elections in America traditionally favour the party in opposition, this amounts to the best performance of its kind in 20 years – since George W Bush’s Republican party achieved gains in both chambers of Congress back in 2002. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-us-canada-63600154
  6. "My understanding is that mail voting convinced young voters to vote in large numbers and apparently they consider abortion to be birth control, rather than a last resort, so single issue voters." Where do you get your understanding on this? Just because young voters came out to vote does not mean they are there voting to use abortion as birth control does it? Can you provide any evidence that this is the reason they voted?
  7. Trump throwing another hissy fit on this one. "Electron" “They stole the Electron from Blake Masters. Do Election over again!” ???? https://www.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-makes-mockery-election-115733372.html
  8. Careful Trump will be on the attack again soon, he's well known for mocking ex military
  9. New Twitter owner Elon Musk sells almost $4 billion in Tesla stock Twitter’s new owner and Tesla CEO Elon Musk sold nearly $4 billion worth of Tesla shares, according to regulatory filings. Musk, who bought Twitter for $44 billion, sold 19.5 million shares of the electric car company from Nov. 4 to Nov. 8, according to Tuesday’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/new-twitter-owner-elon-musk-sells-almost-4-billion-in-tesla-stock

  11. Since when were you his doctor? Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman “has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office” as the Democratic Senate candidate recovers from a debilitating stroke, his primary care physician said.
  12. Somehow I doubt you couldn't care less, your obsession with his stroke symptoms seem to keep you fully amused.
  13. You still haven't got have you. Despite your deplorable mocking of a stroke suvivor. He won. The democratic vote of those that do not mock came through.
  14. Biggest defeat since Kyiv. Ukraine does not agree with your thoughts.
  15. Trump to announce 2024 presidential bid Tuesday, top aide confirms "President Trump is going to announce on Tuesday that he is running for president," Miller told former Trump aide Steve Bannon on his popular "War Room" podcast. "It's gonna be a very professional, very buttoned-up announcement," he added. Miller said Trump told him, "there doesn't need to be any question, of course I am running." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-to-announce-2024-presidential-bid-tuesday-top-aide-confirms/ar-AA140CWo
  16. Twitter boss Elon Musk 'not above the law', warns US regulator On Thursday, Yoel Roth, who had been Twitter's head of trust and safety, updated his profile on the social media platform to indicate that he was no longer in the role. Chief privacy officer Damien Kieran and chief compliance officer Marianne Fogarty resigned, according to reports, and the company's chief security officer Lea Kissner also quit. The departures may increase the risk of Twitter violating regulatory orders. The firm was fined $150m (£119m) in May for selling users' data, and had to agree to new privacy rules. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-63593242
  17. Trump attempted humour at Fettermans expense too, didn't work out too well for him
  18. Your graph needs updating: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Ice_Age#/media/File:2000+_year_global_temperature_including_Medieval_Warm_Period_and_Little_Ice_Age_-_Ed_Hawkins.svg
  19. How large is Trump's base currently? You may conveniently decide its best to ignore him after all this time, how many of the MAGA culties are? Do you know how many election denying officials got voted in? At least 124 Republicans elected in the US midterms have publicly denied the result of the 2020 presidential election. Trump is not out of this by a long shot yet.

  21. Elon Musk warns Twitter could go bankrupt amid company turmoil Twitter's new owner Elon Musk on Thursday raised the possibility of the social media platform going bankrupt, capping a chaotic day that included a warning from a U.S. regulator and departures of senior executives viewed as future leaders. The billionaire told Twitter employees on a call that that he could not rule out bankruptcy, Bloomberg News reported, two weeks after buying it for $44 billion - a deal that credit experts say has left Twitter's finances in a precarious position. Two executives - Yoel Roth and Robin Wheeler - who moderated a Twitter Spaces chat with Musk on Wednesday as he tried to assuage advertisers' concerns, have resigned, one person close to the matter told Reuters. https://www.france24.com/en/americas/20221111-elon-musk-warns-twitter-could-go-bankrupt-amid-company-turmoil
  22. The red wave is in the title, guess who wanted that to overwhelm Biden? LOL
