Henry Kissinger on Hamas attacks fallout: Germany let in too many foreigners
As a minority in Berlin cheer Hamas

This is the breaking news, Henry Kissinger is still dead.

And there was much rejoicing.

How many republicans will be rendered homeless by trumps grifting and have more pressing concerns than voting come November?

Will it be possible to distinguish their effect from that of those just so disgusted by republican candidates that they choose to stay home?

Will it be more or less significant than those who having tossed him a vote or two before now say hell no to any more trump and throw the lever for Biden?

[LarryB!]

The DRIP, DRIP, DRIP of Trumps legal, woes is fascinating to watch considering that was the mantra on the right in regards to the Clinton emails.

In the Donalds case it is collecting into a very deep pool that will drown his criminal ass.

One might ask what happens if SCOTUS grants his appeal for presidential immunity. If that be the case what prevents Biden from reenacting the baptism scene from the Godfather or the Nazis Night of the Long Knives?

Since SCOTUS is NOT going to decide in Trumps favor the above scenario will not happen. What is pretty certain is when Trump eventually comes to trial in the federal cases his future will consist of home confinement and an ankle monitor.

Oh, and he stands to lose more judgments in the lawsuits filed by DC cops and congressmen Eric Swaleell.

Trumps world is about to be as shitty as his diapers.

[facilitatorn]

I still think it will be best if the really heinous shit does not hit the fan for trump until the republican party gets to officially tie the knot with him for another go round. Super Tuesday should probably do it.

It would be good to have at least one jury empaneled about then.

Joe Biden and the truth.

Democrats are worried.
Not about the health of Joe Biden( they could care less).
But because he could lose reelection, big time.

Consider his latest decision to delay EV Mandates.
It comes on the heels of poll results  showing 61 percent of Arizona voters, 87 percent of Michigan voters, 57 percent of Pennsylvania voters, 66 percent of Ohio voters, 61 percent of Nevada voters, and 64 percent of Wisconsin voters said they do not support EV mandates.
Overall, 60 percent of voters across the nation oppose the mandates.
It was a bad idea during  the arrogant rule of Obama.
It is even worse under an idiot like Biden who is nothing but a front for the climate loonies.
Other signs
NY democrat flipped a congressional seat but who ran on the ludicrous Biden handling of the Southern border.
And democrat Colordo Senator Michael Bennett Is fierce critic of Biden cutting off exporting LNG to Europe.
In a evenly divided Congress Biden just got weaker.

I would agree that EV mandates are unnecessary, and focus should be on building infrastructure for connecting green energy sources to grids and generally moving more megawatts.  Also some places hybrids are a better choice, where extreme cold reduces battery range.  I would buy an EV in Arizona or even Kansas but a hybrid here in Dakota land.  I would do so as a bridge to a time, say 2030, when EVs will have evolved to better battery systems and driving ranges.

On selling NG to Europe, yes the administration has fumbled on this, because EU countries that can't get enough NG will be under pressure to use more coal until the green energy infrastructure gets up to speed.
So this really triggers the law of unintended consequences.

However I disagree that Biden is driven by climate loonies, rather I see some of these misfires as glitches on the path to green energy that are happening all over the world. 

As for the standard racist trope of calling Obama arrogant:

yawn.

Word salad with no connection to reality.

The people who know how to build automobiles laugh at you.

Reread what you wrote. It was stupid.

I would be tired too, defending the arrogance of the Obama crowd.

Red likes to slather DDT on his lead paint sandwiches. He does not think seatbelts will catch on either. He thinks they will be as unacceptable as a phone you have to carry around with you in your pocket or trying to ban child labor or allowing interracial marriages. These are the things he grumbles about as he warms his hands over the coal fire in his living room.

I cannot truly fault him for any of this. Late stage syphilitics tend to come unglued. In his his case it is sad to watch is all.

EV initiatives are way down the list of importance. Close the border,idiot should be the message. The fringe left is in control of the elderly gentleman.

An effort by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to help U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) process health care treatment for illegal immigrants despite a growing backlog of U.S. veterans led to uproar among several lawmakers, but one notable Democrat has been tight-lipped about the matter.

It is a lot worse, sorry 10 month wait for a specialist. Who else is going to treat the human onslaught? Fringe left is disdainful of the military but adore federal spending.

You live in Florida, a state the doctors have all left because of your shitty state government. No one who has a choice wants to live in a state that bans books, immigrants and abortion while allowing monthly home insurance rates to cost more than the price of a new car.

The previous Democratic majority provided infinitely more funding and support for the VA and for veterans in general than the do nothing republican grifters in this congress.

Joe has a vette, aviators, a beautiful brilliant wife who adores him, grandchildren, self respect, global prestige, and a sense of right and wrong not bent and twisted by irrational fear.

It is easy to see how your complete envy of the man has distorted your perceptions. Fortunately it has also made you far to shrill to ever be persuasive to anyone even if you could sow two sentences together that made the slightest sense.
