You criticized Zelensky for a Ukrainian WW2 Nazi being at his speech in Ottawa. The WSJ reports that the Speaker of the House invited the guy to Zelensky’s speech and nobody knew his unsavory history at the time.

You forgot one bit of news. Before the nfl game in Chicago at soldier field. There was a break in and thieves stole something 100k in equipment.

The announcers were talking about it and I felt that it was an ironic thing to note.

A break in or crime committed in Chicago? Must be a day that ends in Y.

"Biden's Bad Week"? How about Biden's Bad Presidency?

You hear often that "the American people aren't buying Bidenomics." Of course not. We can't afford it.

Oh I can't wait for the storey about how his dad and Jo Kennedy walked picket lines back in the day.

Do you ever get the feeling that you are in the beginning of one of those apocalyptic movies where everything is normal, but there is an edge - an eerie calm - right before the aliens invade or the zombies start running around eating people? That’s what reading the news lately feels like to me.

Like Invasion of the Body Snatchers. We must be Miles and stay awake to alert the masses, otherwise we all lose our humanity.

Yup…my wild theory is the administration will announce sometime in the middle of next year that extraterrestrials have been and are visiting the earth. They, along with the UN, will declare a worldwide emergency making COVID restrictions look like a parking ticket. We’ll have to cancel all elections. Cue the Twilight Zone music…

A Democrat from Minnesota is better than a dementia patient for president? I'm not seeing the positive side.

"In each case, Democrat influencers contrast the images with unflattering pictures of Trump, arguing that the comparison proves Biden is not only fit for office, but also more fit than Donald Trump is."

Please think deeply about this, because it is the key to everything explaining the real threat to democracy and the reason that Republicans keep losing elections they should win. It explains the Democrat political strategy and why they were so wee weed up on de minimis Russia election media influence (Dems: "hey, Russia, that is OUR domain for making sure the people are brainwashed through the media... YOU STAY AWAY!")

Republicans, no matter the lying claims of the Democrats to the contrary, are a species perpetually governed by moral filters of sanctity and civility. Republicans generally want to compete aggressively, but in a FAIR fight. Their restraint in going dark connects to their faith in God and scripture. That urge is so strong that it creates tension within the GOP against political methods considered lacking sanctity and civility. It some respects it ties one hand behind the back of the GOP in playing the current political games. Republicans want to play cricket while the Democrats play Mad Max. The Democrats also use the high-minded morality of Republicans against them. While Democrats are the emotional animal that can be easily inflamed to be taken off their game, Republicans refuse to make that play while Democrats gleefully inject emotive stew into the Republican debate.

The bottom line is that politics is a mass media influence game that the Democrats have mastered and the controlling Republicans refuse to play. Not only do the controlling Republicans refuse to play, but they attack and destroy any within their ranks that go there. These old establishment Republicans still in power hold onto a some romantic vision where their goodness prevails... the people finally turn back toward the traditional values of real virtue and civility... and seek to re-embrace their self-awarded high-morality leadership.

I get that attraction, but I also see that we have complete evidence that is a path to continued political failure.

The Democrat spin machine does the photo altering of Biden and Trump... it gets blasted through their big data tools to the traditional and new medial though social networking. The voters ingest it though their likes and algorithm filtered content feeds... and their minds, lacking awareness that they are being manipulated, are polluted with this propaganda. That damage is done. Republicans would not do that. If they did, the Democrats would howl about it and there would be infighting within the Republican party against those that did it.

If the Republicans are so damn committed to playing political cricket, then they would need a platform of policy and legislative ideas to prevent the media from being a spin factory for the Democrats. Otherwise the Democrats are going to keep handing Republicans their hat in every election.

The thing that frosts me about high and mighty Republicans pulling one hand behind the Party back for fighting the fight, is the massive and clear evidence that the survival of the republic requires that Democrats do no stay in power. If you are in a war and you refuse to fight... how is that a winning strategy?

While this is all correct it will fall on deaf ears as republicans are the party that promised to repeal Obamacare and yet 10 years later it’s still there. Only the mandate is gone and that has done little to curb costs or rectify the ability of people to get health care or even receive it with a good quality.

"The images were designed to make Biden appear younger."

The photoshopping thing proves to me that “Joe Biden” is just an empty vessel for the self described progressives to enact their schemes.

23% approval rating for Bidens handling of the border 🤔This must be a mix of people who do not want secured borders and some who just don’t have a clue buying into the lies being told.
