 That guy could well have a legit grievance. I don't believe we have any right to comment until bambu weighs in on the matter.

Well, he better get cracking if he does….It’s hard to act past the age of 95.

If/when Heidi Heitkamp loses the cognoscenti will say her vote re Kavanaugh cost her the election.
They’ll be wrong.

Cramer is infamous for saying that the legalization of abortion led to the increase in mass shootings.   He generally believes that perversion has become normal and is eager to stamp it out.  He is the quintessential candidate of the bitter old fuck in Gran Torino.  If he wins,  then ND has chugged the hate kool-aid.  The only tiny bright spot is that the Koch brothers don't like him and refuse to give him money.  The other is that North Dakota is full of tough broads who don't take shit and will vote in the middle of a blizzard.   We'll see,  I guess.

It's hard to act at any age,  for Mr Eastwood.  IMO one of the most overrated actors of his generation.  But a definite talent for directing.

SCOTUS upheld a law in ND requiring a street address instead of the standard P.O. Box used by many Native Americans. This voter ID law was “designed” to combat the rampant in person voter fraud.

Disenfranchisement, gerrymandering, broadcast lies, and other ratfucking are the only means the right wing crime spree retains any power.

They all smell like dying losers.

lol

The White male homeowner hadn't taken his medications that day.
He was told by his wife that someone was breaking into their home.
"Tied of being a victim" he fought back...and in doing so seems to have broken the law.

In "fighting back" about the persecution of White males today, one has to be very careful...as danger awaits.

No one was shot.
A lengthy prison sentence or life sentence...ridiculous.

He stepped right in it...now they have him, a White male, in their sights/courtroom.
Lord only knows what will happen to him now.

Nah, he's a good actor...one of my favourites.
He's an actor for bambu-ilk types.

This 'Shakespeare' type acting is oh so boring..."The Outlaw Josey Wales" and 'Gran Torino' are just my style.

Mark Harris, candidate for Congress in North Carolina, tells women that GOD says they are supposed to be submissive to their husbands and possibly that they should not even have jobs.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/mcconnell-warns-democrats-to-think-carefully-about-presidential-harassment-if-they-win-house-majority

McConnell tells Democrats: "If you win the House, don't act like the GOP!"

 The problem with McConnell's warning is that Americans watched Republicans engage in a 6 year bogus investigation/vendetta against a President who remained popular with the vast majority of Americans. The current President does not have that popularity and its entirely likely after the non-existent Republican-led House investigation/cover-up of Trump-Russia etc, most Americans might welcome Congress actually acting as the constitutional check on the executive branch of government, and   a counter-weight to the corrupt authoritarian Russian puppet and tax evader.
