A rare point of agreement by the two Posts.
Well done by the New York version.

Matt Murray has been Editor in Chief of the WaPo since early July 2024. He was Editor in Chief of the WALL STREET JOURNAL from 2018 to 2023.

Yeah, rare indeed.

<snicker>
How so?
Both newspapers have separate news divisions and editorial staffs.

The news division and editorial division are shaped by the hirings of the publisher and that would be
William Lewis who is the publisher and chief executive officer of The Washington Post. He was formerly chief executive of Dow Jones & Company and publisher of The Wall Street Journal.

So, yeah. What i said.

Rewatching the clown debate between santa Joe and crazy Donald. Some wise critic said the first to replace would win. Thank you Dems. Vets still have 5% compliance rate in contrast to 95% for aliens. When questioned program director said congress had set the bar high for vets. All funding has been stripped for aliens. Demented idiot should leave now.

Wondering what life in the USA might be if the progressive democrats got control?

George Will has some awfully scary figures of what happened to Chicago Where dems and unions are driving people away.


  Democrats, welcome to Chicago. Behold what progressivism hath wrought.

We need to make everyone legal, like Reagan did, so they can join labor unions, and so they can call the police in the case of an emergency, etc, and we can increase the income by selling exports to China, etc, we can send Oranges and Avocados to China, etc, and Wine, etc.

We also need to give all Americans who want one an education, which means we can train Doctors, and Psychiatrists, etc, and Nurses, and Pharmacists, etc.

The immigrants will not be taking the jobs away from Americans if we train and educate the Americans. And if everyone is in a labor union then everyone will be treated fair.

I wish we had Reagan again on the issue of immigration. And then we need a "Good Neighbor Policy" which allows our neighbors from Canada and Mexico to come and go easily, etc, like the way Europe is, someone from Ireland can easily go to Italy, etc.

Meanwhile, lots of things are being done to help Veterans, and to help the Homeless.

If you have food and shelter right now then you are lucky, we have 175,000 homeless people here in California. And the whole Middle East is full of refugees, millions of refugees. I recommend Canada for the refugees, at the Kiwanis Village in Victoria, British Columbia.

And we need to make sure that the Peace Corps is fully funded.

And the CIA.

Salute,

Tony V.

We will have an economic boom, crime rates will drop, Americans will live longer, happier and healthier lives and we will have stronger relations with everyone who can be considered part of the free world.

The usual things that regularly happen when progressive Democrats get control and fascist republicans are banished to the outer darkness.

You will spew the bitchiest lies you can find attacking the country and constitution as always.

So glad I could help

Alaska is a great place for the refugees, and Canada.

And Alaska has Kiwanis...

https://fairbankskiwanis.org/

Kiwanis is global.

And a lot of the people from Ukraine, Russia, Poland, etc, have been coming to Alaska.

We just need to make everyone legal so they can call the cops for help, etc, and so that they are protected by our unions, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

There would not be a housing shortage, inflation due to housing costs, or so many sleeping in the streets.

No problem
https://www.wsj.com/opinion/the-chicago-model-for-democrats-johnson-crime-education-dnc-5ddd8e7d

Welcome to Chicago, esteemed delegates to the 2024 Democratic National Convention, and please look around while you are but maybe not too long after dark. The city has not had a Republican mayor in nearly a century, making it a showcase for progressive governance. So how do Democrats explain its high crime, fiscal woes, and failing public schools?

These problems are interrelated, but start with the crime rate, which would spook Al Capone. Chicago led the U.S. in homicides for the 12th year in a row in 2023, and this year violent crime is at a six-year high. Changes to the city s policing strategies, including engaging in fewer foot chases, have contributed to a rise in petty crimes and a growing sense of disorder.

This has afflicted the city sbusinesses and retail, from vacancies on Michigan Avenue to drugstore chains that now lock up shampoo to keep it from walking out the door. Shoplifting is at a 22-year high, according to CWB Chicago, which makes it hard to run a business profitably. On the city s South and West sides, major retailers and grocers have closed.[/i]
