Not only won’t they do this, they haven’t done this. @Republicans are a useless party. This day has been coming and everyone has known this day was coming as sure as we are about the sun rising in the East. And yet, when the opportunity presented itself to counter this, in Texas and Florida and Ohio, Republicans did nothing. They stood on their high moral horse and this is the result.

Following tonight’s results in Virginia, every Republican Governor in a red state should immediately call a special session to redraw their congressional maps. If the Democrats don’t want to play fair, so be it. If they want to go low, it’s time we go to the basement.

@LarryJones We have ABC stores in NC; closed on Sundays. Beer and wine yes, but not before 12PM.

Can you buy alcohol on Sundays in your state?

I recall reviewing his “Keys” and thinking they were fairly accurate. What was not accurate was his TDS-influenced subjective application and interpretation as applied to the 2024 election. Things like Biden administration being scandal free, or the most laughable assessment that Biden was charismatic and Trump was not.

Do you remember Allan Lichtman? He's that academic who authoritatively put forth his "13 Keys to the White House" theory that said Trump would lose the 2024 Election. Well, that's who Robert Pape is now with his "Escalation Trap" theory of the Iran War And you know, it's possible that Robert Pape will ultimately be right about this thing escalating much much farther, but a broken clock is also right twice a day Because nothing about his interpretation of events so far show me that he is anything but an academic that's become a slave to the overly deterministic model that he's spent a career creating All conflicts are about escalation and deescalation, and just because he seems to have cornered the market on this concept doesn't make anything he says any more relevant The fact that there was essentially a deal in place on Friday should put to rest any notion that escalation is inevitable or that air-power cannot achieve military goals So maybe Trump will pull off a negotiate peace, or will have to push on further...but Pape is certainly not a serious commentator on the evolution of this conflict with his cherry picked interpretation of events

@TaraBull @mattvanswol You do realize that the job of a lawyer is to represent the client, right? Regardless of how much of a scumbag a client may be, we are obligated to make these motions, even when we know they are frivolous. It’s called “due process” and it’s enshrined in our Constitution.

@mattvanswol Lock up the lawyer with him

🚨#BREAKING: The attorney for the “Olaolukitan Adon Abel” who m*rdered Lauren Bullis by sho*ting her in the face 6 times and then st*bbing her to de*th... ...has requested that Olaolukitan be able to BOND OUT OF JAIL because: "He is not a danger and he won't flee." WHAT?!!!!

@mattvanswol @RealJamesWoods Don’t blame the attorney. We must file those motions, even when we know there is no chance of success. We have that obligation to the client.

David Gilmour performing "Comfortably Numb" Live In São Paulo, Brazil 2015. This man transports you to another galaxy with his guitar... One of the best guitar solos ever. Love to see younger people appreciate that.

@BasedMikeLee Let's go back to the original 4 -- State, Treasury, War and Justice. All others can go bye-bye.

Which departments of the U.S. government should not exist?

@WallStreetMav It’s the old Jimmy Carter plan. I remember his Oval Office address telling Americans to turn down the thermostat in the winter and wear a sweater. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

The Strait of Hormuz is blockaded. Europe's plan? Ursula von der Leyen: "The cheapest energy is the one you don't use." Stay home, don't drive, don't use electricity. The EU has no plan and no military to change do anything. So they are stuck with "monitoring the situation"

There is a difference in the International Red Cross and the American Red Cross. Things may have changed, but when I was in the Army, the American Red Cross was responsible for, and assisted me, with emergency travels back home when I had a death in the family. Maybe things are different now.

Major point of disagreement with President Trump today following him saying Americans “support” the Red Cross The Red Cross is evil. NO American should support them - They HANDED OUT MAPS for third worlders to invade our country - Attempted to SEIZE Starlinks deployed by me and @ChrisHallWx in Western North Carolina to reconnect victims of Hurricane Helene (they wanted to be the WiFi gatekeepers) - Tried THROWING AWAY hot food we donated to shelters near Asheville, simply because they wanted to be able to bill TAXPAYERS for each plate of slop they were force-feeding to victims My Red Cross rage is actually how I first met @mattvanswol, who helped me coordinate relief efforts. Red Cross is a corrupt organization, and it should be dissolved.

I presume he is referring to the money Canada spends on their military, by spending 70% of their military budget purchasing equipment from USA suppliers. I was unaware that there was a Canadian version of Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrup Grumman or General Dynamics. What's your alternative supplier, China, Russia? Excellent strategy. Go ahead and get your military equipment from your enemies. What's the worst thing that could happen?? Folks, this is why NATO is dead, dead, dead!

🚨New: Canada Prime Minister Mark Carney says the days of Canada heavily supporting the United States are over: “The days of our military sending 70 cents of every dollar to the United States are over.”

We do not and will not accept a terrorist regime. CRUSH the ISLAMIC REGIME in Iran. Destroy it all. Zero negotiation with terrorists. Do not be like the EU, still too cowardly to act.The UAE has destroyed and will destroy every Iranian missile and drone that targets us. PAKISTAN FAILED. Anyone who tries to keep this regime alive will fail. God bless the UAE. God bless the USA. God bless the Iranian people.

@AlphaPulseGlobe @Osint613 Can you explain your statement “US still needs the strait open”? You throw that line out there like it’s a given, a priori. Why do we “need” the strait open? We don’t “need” anything from that region.

"Bad news for Iran much more than for the US." That's the official line. We walked away, not them. But the subtext is that the US couldn't close the deal either. Vance is spinning failure as strength. The "we go back to the US having not come to an agreement" is a convoluted way of saying the talks collapsed. Message is clear. The administration is already pivoting to blame Iran for the breakdown. The problem is that the US still needs the strait open. And Iran still controls it. Vance's tough talk sounds good on cable news. On the water, nothing has changed. The tankers are still turning back. The insurance is still unavailable. The "bad news" might be for everyone.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance: "The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement. And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the United States of America. So, we go back to the U.S. having not come to an agreement. They have chosen not to accept our terms."

If the Dems/media didn’t fear two Republicans winning the California primary, the Swalwell allegations would’ve remained hidden. Remember, everything the corporate media do is to protect the Democrat Party.

@Matt_Pinner Gordon Lightfoot.

Can you name ONE famous Canadian?

Since Trump took office, over 352,000 Federal employees have been fired, resigned, or retired and were not replaced. The Federal workforce is smaller today than at any point since 1966.

Fairfax County is one of the most liberal areas, maybe in the country. It is packed with liberal white elites like these two women (who probably both voted for this Commonwealth Attorney) who undoubtedly tell you how great the public schools are in the county. I am heartbroken that this has been allowed to happen to these girls. I’m beyond angry that their parents’ ignorance permitted the system (through their voting) to develop and fester. And now their children are the victims. Great job, parents.

🚨WATCH: Parents are furious after they say a male student, who is in the country illegally, groped several girls in between their legs in the hallway at Fairfax High School in Virginia. The male student will be 19-years-old soon. ICE says he crossed the southern border in 2024. He’s charged with nine counts of assault and battery, a misdemeanor. But some parents I spoke to want him to be charged with sexual assault.

As impressive as this is for Elon, to have a worth in excess of $400B, think about the Walton family. These are the five children of Sam Walton. Sam began and was the sole owner of Walmart. When Sam died in 1992, he was at the top of this list. Each of his children inherited an equal share of the company. All five children continue to be worth about $110B each. Combining their fortunes, the Walton Family (theoretically Sam’s fortune had he lived to today), and it's well in excess of $500B.

Holy Moly. Elon Musk didn’t appear on this list until 2020….. then shot up to the top same year. AMAZING !!!

@KarluskaP Every time I see this, I keep expecting the footage to go to high-speed and the Benny Hill theme to start playing.

It’s like a Tom and Jerry cartoon

@atensnut You could wait on the line and listen to the recording every 10 seconds, waiting for the next minute to roll over so that you could push the "time" button on your Amana microwave to be in perfect time sync.

🤣🤣🤣 Yep! And we would call it to make sure our clocks were right.

@recluse999 @rising_serpent I'm not sure what point it is you are trying to make. Regardless, you are wrong in your premise. According to national statistics, only 14-15% of state legislators are attorneys; which means 85% are NOT LAWYERS.

@JDGarrett15 @rising_serpent And who makes the laws? Lawyers. What is a judge? A lawyer.

Not incompetent to get welfare, reparations, food stamps, no cash bail, a public defender, a GoFundMe or released 14 fucking times from custody. FOURTEEN. Show us a picture of the goblin judge who decided this demon wasn't fit to stand trial.
