All one must do to understand the current state of the Democratic Party is to quietly observe what they are willing to do to and say about their fellow travelers who stray just a scoosh from party orthodoxy. It’s vile and dangerous.
A thing of beauty. It’s always amusing to watch the rare instance where a Dem is challenged by the media. They’re so unaccustomed to it that they haven’t prepared & haven’t developed the skill set to push back competently.
Folks a classic of the genre!
“40% were wrong! That darn Trump is lying again!!”
What they Americans won’t notice is that 60% were on the voting rolls.

It’s often quite helpful to see ourselves through the eyes of others.
I asked 50 Japanese people, ages 9 to 91, one question.
"What do you admire most about Americans?"
Here are the top answers.
10. "They clap when the plane lands." (Office worker, 34)
9. "They say 'I love you' every time they hang up the phone. Even men. Even to other men." (Taxi driver, 61)
8. "A stranger told me she liked my shoes. Then she just walked away. She didn't want anything." (High school girl, 16)
7. "They thank the bus driver when they get off." (Bus driver, 55. He got emotional saying this.)
6. "They tell you their whole life story in the grocery line. I know about one man's divorce, his boat, and his knee surgery. We knew each other for four minutes." (My mother, 64)
5. "They stand for the anthem at a children's baseball game." (Little League coach, 47)
4. "When they lose, they shake hands and say 'good game.' And they mean it." (Sota, 12)
3. "They fly the flag on a regular Tuesday. No holiday. Just because." (Nurse, 28)
2. "They help a stranger push a car out of the snow, then leave without saying their name." (My cousin's husband, 52, who got stuck in Colorado once)
And the number one answer came from the oldest person I asked. My grandfather. He's 91.
He thought about it for a long time.
Then he said:
"They still believe tomorrow will be better than today."
I asked him what he meant.
"In 1946, we had nothing," he said. "The American soldiers I met were young and far from home. But they acted like the future was coming, and it was going to be good. After a while, we started to believe them."
I asked him if he thought Americans still believe that.
He nodded slowly.
"Tell them," he said, "not to stop."
In a weird way, this is good news.
James talarico was caught following prostitutes and porn stars on Instagram.
talarico actively liked multiple photos of an Austin Instagram account holder who has a page on an escort website.
"I try not to follow celebrities or journalists or politicians on Instagram. I try to just keep it as, like, my personal friends," talarico said in 2019.

Oh, but sure, don’t vote for the GOP candidate because you’re so above it all. Honestly, the only thing worse than bad GOP candidates is dumb GOP voters.
Bingo. Don’t vote, fine. But we’ll remember and call you to account when you are subsequently outraged by what is happening with the other side in power.
These are not normal times and not voting isn’t just empowering an Edmund Muskie type in order to teach Republicans a lesson.
Stopping at Starbucks - I don’t want to hear it - I’m behind a line of 10 cars at 11am. Don’t tell me about the affordability crisis.
Americans need to accept that this is another example of the he psy op they’ve been live ng through
EXCLUSIVE: CBS News chief Bari Weiss faced “significant resistance” from staff at the network’s 9am meeting this morning while discussing the growing Alaska ballot scandal as she urged reporters to dig into the story, according to sources at the meeting.

NB: America’s Left supports Lula and couldn’t be more thrilled that he “won”.
No word on whether they plan to break out their Che T-Shirts.
Did you know…
2014: the candidate who ran against Lula’s party died.
2018: the candidate who ran against Lula’s party was stabbed and nearly killed.
2022: the candidate who ran against Lula’s party is serving a 27-year sentence for a “coup” that never happened.
2026: Flávio Bolsonaro, the candidate who ran against Lula, is in exile.
What are the odds? Just huge coincidences.
And Lula wants us to believe he won the election fairly?
Nobody cared about Bam’s tan suit just as nobody cared about Reagan’s brown suits.
.@BarackObama: I am old enough to remember when a president wearing a tan suit was a major national controversy. They were very upset. And I know I looked good in that suit.
