There was, if hazy memories recall correctly, a time when the Democratic Party was merely an alternative to the Republican Party and not a threat to the country. Those days are gone. Today’s Democrats are in the business of wracking, ruining and razing.

The Biden administration, says former Hawaiian Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, is “destroying the foundational, fundamental elements of our country and what it means to be an American.”

Speaking recently to Dave Rubin of the Rubin Report, Gabbard noted that “we have seen now consistently throughout his entire administration over these last three and a half years, consistently pushing policies that undermine our freedom, that make our country less safe and less secure, and that is very quickly unraveling and” wrecking the backbone of the country.

Though Gabbard left the party not even two years ago, what we’re seeing is not new. The political left, says author David Horowitz, has long been filled with radical activists who “cannot be negotiated with.”

“There is no living alongside it. Either Americans defeat the Neo-Nazi Left or the Neo-Nazi Left defeats America,” says Horowitz.

Yup.
Tulsi Gabbard, the former Democratic congresswoman, has repeated a discredited claim about Hillary Clinton that previously saw Gabbard lodge then drop a $50m defamation suit in a new book published as she seeks to be named Donald Trump’s running mate for US president.

I reject any opinion on anyone's character from the likes of you.

You are pure trash and your opinion on any topic is meaningless. You're just going to post something shortly that is mutually exclusive from any other points you tried to make today soon anyhow.

New Data Should Have Team Biden Sweating

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2024/05/07/new-data-biden-losi
ng-ground-among-multiple-key-demographics-n2638696

Quote:
A recent analysis published by the left-leaning Brookings Institution -- which highlights Pew data -- demonstrates significant erosion within Joe Biden's 2020 victory coalition, across multiple key demographics. It cites "major shifts away from Biden have occurred among Black, Hispanic, and Asian voters. Surprisingly, Trump appears to have gained more ground among college-educated Black and Hispanic voters than with less educated members of these groups. Equally surprising: Up to now, Trump has increased his support more among women than men." All survey data should be considered with a large grain of salt with half a year still remaining before the election. Things can, and will, change as events develop and the campaign unfolds. But as I've noted on several previous occasions, most Americans hold highly developed opinions of the two major party frontrunners, each of whom is a president. Public opinion about this slog of a rematch has therefore been remarkably stable thus far. And the movement in support, compared to 2020, has been almost universally negative for the incumbent.

Uh oh...

Looks like the Democrat Party's racism of low expectations is going to be their own undoing.

Something odd is happening inside Tulsi. Either Tulsi betrayed the Democratic voters who elected her as a Democrat or she is lying to Trump in order to betray him as did Vice-President Mike Pence.

1) Former Hawaiian Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard says the Biden administration is “destroying the foundational, fundamental elements of our country and what it means to be an American.” (Biden is an ordinary Democrat. If Tulsi truthfully believes Biden is destroying America, she was faking when she ran as a Democrat and tricked the Democrats into voting for Tulsi.)

2) She seeks to be named Donald Trump’s running mate for US president.

Biden* is a NeoLib piece of shit and not far removed from GWB or Mitt Romney.

Until you can recognize and admit that, we have nothing further to talk about regarding the character of anyone.

Meet Allan Lichtman, the professor who predicted the president (and the last 9)

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/05/08/alla
n-lichtman-2024-election-professor-predicted-president/73613080007/

When I predicted Trump’s victory in 2016 – which you can imagine did not make me very popular in 90% Democratic Washington D.C. where I teach – Trump actually sent me a note on the Washington Post article where I predicted his win that said, “Congrats Professor, good call.”

He appreciated my call but he didn’t understand the meaning of the keys. The keys primarily probe the strength and performance of the White House party.

The big message: It is governance, not campaigning, that counts. Trump didn’t understand that. So when the pandemic hit, instead of dealing substantively with the pandemic like the keys would have indicated, he tried to talk his way out of it. Of course, it didn’t work; the economy tanked, and he lost two additional keys: The short- and long-term economy. That put him down six keys, enough to predict his defeat.

I’ve also said while I have no final prediction (until August) a lot would have to go wrong for Biden to lose.

Forget the polls, forget the pundits.

Polls six months, five months, even closer to the election have zero predictive value.

We've already met.

That's an old article now... Just a rehash of the same article you posted on April 28th with the exact same quotes. Joe Biden* has already lost 7 of the keys.

Tick Tock

Here's my reply to the first time you posted this article 10 days ago that you didn't reply to.

Originally posted by 6ixStringJack (April 28th):

Yeah. Trump's an incumbent too.

And there wasn't any serious competition against Biden* because the DNC wouldn't allow it. That's why you've got RFK running independent. They might have stopped talking about it for now, but remember only a month ago all the speculation that they're going to replace Biden* last minute. That still may happen too.

Here's the keys:

Quote:
1. Party mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the US House of Representatives than after the previous midterm elections.

-1 Key: Democrats lost 9 seats to Republicans in 2022.

Quote:
2. Contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent party nomination.

Neutral: DNC didn't allow anybody serious to run against Biden*. They let Crystal Lady run.

Quote:
3. Incumbency: The incumbent party candidate is the sitting president.

Neutral: Both men are incumbents, and Joe Biden* has the lowest job approval of any president we have historical data for. By a long shot.

Quote:
4. Third party: There is no significant third party or independent campaign.

-1 Key: RFK

Quote:
5. Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign.

Neutral: They've been lying about recession for over 2 years now, with the legacy media trying to tell us we're just imagining that the economy sucks.

Quote:
6. Long-term economy: Real per capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms.

Neutral: It's easy to make massive gains on this when a global plandemic came about and made 2020's numbers look so bad by comparison. Most of those gains were just jobs that came back. People might be making a little bit more, but everything costs far more.

Quote:
7. Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy.

-1 Key: You bet he did. And none of it in a positive way. 10 Million illegal aliens taking over all of our big cities and counting. The Afghanistan Withdrawl debacle that initially put Joe Biden* on his negative approval rating which he has never recovered from. How about 2 or 3 or 4 more wars going on depending on the day, and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars going overseas, seemingly entirely wasted, allegedly to protect everyone else's borders yet we don't do anything about our own?

Quote:
8. Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term.

-1 Key: There's social unrest everyday. Just wait until August when the convention hits Chicago and the world gets to see all the different factions of typically Democrat voters throwing the city into chaos.

Quote:
9. Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandal.

Neutral: Half the country believes he has been plagued with scandal. The other half doesn't.

Quote:
10. Foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs.

-1 Key: Joe Biden*'s administration has been a train wreck globally.

Quote:
11. Foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs.

-1 Key: Joe Biden*'s administration has been a train wreck globally.

Quote:
12. Incumbent charisma: The incumbent party candidate is charismatic or a national hero.

-1 Key: Joe Biden* has negative charisma.

And no... Punching some kid in the nose because your mom paid you a quarter to do it, or giving Corn Pop what for does not count as a national hero anywhere outside of what's left of Joe's* brain.

Quote:
13. Challenger charisma: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero.

Neutral: Half the country believes Trump is very charismatic. The other half believes he's the end of Democracy.

I think I've done my best to be conservative with these and not take away more keys that he probably shouldn't keep.

And that's -7 Keys. Arguably more, depending on the bias of the person making the list.

Key Guy had better be real careful about his own biases on this one if he wants to keep it to only 1 loss out of 11 in November.

Nevada: Trump now leads by 4.5 percentage points. At this point in 2020, Nevada had no April or May polls. It had one poll from March, an Emerson survey, showing Biden up by 4 points. (In November 2020, Biden won Nevada by 2.4 points.)

Arizona: Trump now leads by 5.0 points. By this point in 2020, one poll, in April, showed Biden leading by 9 points—but the RCP running average by this point in 2020 had Biden up by 5.3 points. (Biden won Arizona by 0.3 points.)

Georgia: Trump now leads by 3.8 points. At this point in 2020, Georgia had no polls in April or May. A poll completed in early March from the University of Georgia showed Trump up by 8 points. (Biden won Georgia by less than 0.3 points.)

North Carolina: Trump now leads by 5.4 points. At this point in 2020, polling averages showed Trump up by less than a point. (Trump won North Carolina by 1.3 points.)

Michigan: Trump now leads by 1.2 points. At this point in 2020, Michigan had one recent poll, an April survey from Fox News, showing Biden leading by 8 points. (Biden won Michigan by 2.8 points.)

Wisconsin: Trump now leads by 1.8 points. In the first week of May 2020, a Wisconsin poll by Marquette University showed Biden leading by 3 points. (Biden won Wisconsin by 0.6 points.)

Pennsylvania: Trump now leads by 1.8 points. At this point in 2020, the RCP polling average showed Biden up by 4.5 points. (Biden won Pennsylvania by 1.2 points.)

The New Propaganda War

Autocrats in China, Russia, and elsewhere are now making common cause with MAGA Republicans to discredit liberalism and freedom around the world.

By Anne Applebaum | May 6, 2024

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/06/china-russia-repu
blican-party-relations/678271/

Autocracies have come together, not around particular stories, but around a set of ideas, or rather in opposition to a set of ideas. Transparency, for example. And rule of law. And democracy. They have heard language about those ideas—which originate in the democratic world—coming from their own dissidents, and have concluded that they are dangerous to their regimes. Their own rhetoric makes this clear. In 2013, as Chinese President Xi Jinping was beginning his rise to power, an internal Chinese memo, known enigmatically as Document No. 9—or, more formally, as the Communiqué on the Current State of the Ideological Sphere—listed “seven perils” faced by the Chinese Communist Party. “Western constitutional democracy” led the list, followed by “universal human rights,” “media independence,” “judicial independence,” and “civic participation.” The document concluded that “Western forces hostile to China,” together with dissidents inside the country, “are still constantly infiltrating the ideological sphere,” and instructed party leaders to push back against these ideas wherever they found them, especially online, inside China and around the world.

Since at least 2004, the Russians have been focused on the same convergence of internal and external ideological threats. That was the year Ukrainians staged a popular revolt, known as the Orange Revolution—the name came from the orange T-shirts and flags of the protesters—against a clumsy attempt to steal a presidential election. The angry intervention of the Ukrainian public into what was meant to have been a carefully orchestrated victory for Viktor Yanukovych, a pro-Russian candidate directly supported by Putin himself, profoundly unnerved the Russians. This was especially the case because a similarly unruly protest movement in Georgia had brought a pro-European politician, Mikheil Saakashvili, to power the year before.

Shaken by those two events, Putin put the bogeyman of “color revolution” at the center of Russian propaganda. Civic protest movements are now always described as color revolutions in Russia, and as the work of outsiders. Popular opposition leaders are always said to be puppets of foreign governments. Anti-corruption and pro-democracy slogans are linked to chaos and instability wherever they are used, whether in Tunisia, Syria, or the United States. In 2011, a year of mass protest against a manipulated election in Russia itself, Putin bitterly described the Orange Revolution as a “well-tested scheme for destabilizing society,” and he accused the Russian opposition of “transferring this practice to Russian soil,” where he feared a similar popular uprising intended to remove him from power.

Putin was wrong—no “scheme” had been “transferred.” Public discontent in Russia simply had no way to express itself except through street protest, and Putin’s opponents had no legal means to remove him from power. Like so many other people around the world, they talked about democracy and human rights because they recognized that these concepts represented their best hope for achieving justice, and freedom from autocratic power. The protests that led to democratic transitions in the Philippines, Taiwan, South Africa, South Korea, and Mexico; the “people’s revolutions” that washed across Central and Eastern Europe in 1989; the Arab Spring in 2011; and, yes, the color revolutions in Ukraine and Georgia—all were begun by those who had suffered injustice at the hands of the state, and who seized on the language of freedom and democracy to propose an alternative.

This is the core problem for autocracies: The Russians, the Chinese, the Iranians, and others all know that the language of transparency, accountability, justice, and democracy appeals to some of their citizens, as it does to many people who live in dictatorships. Even the most sophisticated surveillance can’t wholly suppress it. The very ideas of democracy and freedom must be discredited—especially in the places where they have historically flourished.

In the 20th century, Communist Party propaganda was overwhelming and inspiring, or at least it was meant to be. The future it portrayed was shiny and idealized, a vision of clean factories, abundant produce, and healthy tractor drivers with large muscles and square jaws. The architecture was designed to overpower, the music to intimidate, the public spectacles to awe. In theory, citizens were meant to feel enthusiasm, inspiration, and hope. In practice, this kind of propaganda backfired, because people could compare what they saw on posters and in movies with a far more impoverished reality.

A few autocracies still portray themselves to their citizens as model states. The North Koreans continue to hold colossal military parades with elaborate gymnastics displays and huge portraits of their leader, very much in the Stalinist style. But most modern authoritarians have learned from the mistakes of the previous century. Freedom House, a nonprofit that advocates for democracy around the world, lists 56 countries as “not free.” Most don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, apathetic and afraid, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade their own people to stay out of politics, and above all to convince them that there is no democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong. The democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.

Here is a difficult truth: A part of the American political spectrum is not merely a passive recipient of the combined authoritarian narratives that come from Russia, China, and their ilk, but an active participant in creating and spreading them. Like the leaders of those countries, the American MAGA right also wants Americans to believe that their democracy is degenerate, their elections illegitimate, their civilization dying. The MAGA movement’s leaders also have an interest in pumping nihilism and cynicism into the brains of their fellow citizens, and in convincing them that nothing they see is true. Their goals are so similar that it is hard to distinguish between the online American alt-right and its foreign amplifiers, who have multiplied since the days when this was solely a Russian project. Tucker Carlson has even promoted the fear of a color revolution in America, lifting the phrase directly from Russian propaganda. The Chinese have joined in too: Earlier this year, a group of Chinese accounts that had previously been posting pro-Chinese material in Mandarin began posting in English, using MAGA symbols and attacking President Joe Biden. They showed fake images of Biden in prison garb, made fun of his age, and called him a satanist pedophile. One Chinese-linked account reposted an RT video repeating the lie that Biden had sent a neo-Nazi criminal to fight in Ukraine. Alex Jones’s reposting of the lie on social media reached some 400,000 people.

Given that both Russian and Chinese actors now blend in so easily with the MAGA messaging operation, it is hardly surprising that the American government has difficulty responding to the newly interlinked autocratic propaganda network.

X (formerly Twitter) also used to look for foreign propaganda activity, but under the ownership of Elon Musk, that voluntary effort has been badly weakened. The new blue-check “verification” process allows users—including anonymous, pro-Russian users—to pay to have their posts amplified; the old “safety team” no longer exists. The result: After the collapse of the Kakhovka dam in Ukraine last summer, a major environmental and humanitarian disaster caused by Russian bombing over many weeks, the false narrative that Ukraine had destroyed it appeared hundreds of thousands of times on X. After the ISIS terrorist attack on a concert hall in Moscow in March, David Sacks, the former PayPal entrepreneur and a close associate of Musk’s, posted on X, with no evidence, that “if the Ukrainian government was behind the terrorist attack, as looks increasingly likely, the U.S. must renounce it.” His completely unfounded post was viewed 2.5 million times. This spring, some Republican congressional leaders finally began speaking about the Russian propaganda that had “infected” their base and their colleagues. Most of that “Russian propaganda” is not coming from inside Russia.

Over the past several years, universities and think tanks have used their own data analytics to try to identify inauthentic networks on the largest websites—but they are also now meeting resistance from MAGA-affiliated Republican politicians. In 2020, teams at Stanford University and the University of Washington, together with the Digital Forensic Research Lab at the Atlantic Council and Graphika, a company that specializes in social-media analytics, decided to join forces to monitor false election information. Renée DiResta, one of the leaders of what became the Election Integrity Partnership, told me that an early concern was Russian and Chinese campaigns. DiResta assumed that these foreign interventions wouldn’t matter much, but she thought it would be useful and academically interesting to understand their scope. “Lo and behold,” she said, “the entity that becomes the most persistent in alleging that American elections are fraudulent, fake, rigged, and everything else turns out to be the ex-president of the United States.” The Election Integrity Partnership tracked election rumors coming from across the political spectrum, but observed that the MAGA right was far more prolific and significant than any other source.

The Election Integrity Partnership was not organized or directed by the U.S. government. It occasionally reached out to platforms, but had no power to compel them to act, DiResta told me. Nevertheless, the project became the focus of a complicated MAGA-world conspiracy theory about alleged government suppression of free speech, and it led to legal and personal attacks on many of those involved. The project has been smeared and mischaracterized by some of the journalists attached to Musk’s “Twitter Files” investigation, and by Representative Jim Jordan’s Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. A series of lawsuits alleging that the U.S. government sought to suppress conservative speech, including one launched by Missouri and Louisiana that has now reached the Supreme Court, has effectively tried to silence organizations that investigate both domestic and foreign disinformation campaigns, overt and covert. To state baldly what is happening: The Republican Party’s right wing is actively harassing legitimate, good-faith efforts to track the production and dissemination of autocratic disinformation here in the United States.

Because the American extreme right and (more rarely) the extreme left benefit from the spread of antidemocratic narratives, they have an interest in silencing or hobbling any group that wants to stop, or even identify, foreign campaigns. Senator Mark Warner, the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told me that “we are actually less prepared today than we were four years ago” for foreign attempts to influence the 2024 election. This is not only because authoritarian propaganda campaigns have become more sophisticated as they begin to use AI, or because “you obviously have a political environment here where there’s a lot more Americans who are more distrustful of all institutions.” It’s also because the lawsuits, threats, and smear tactics have chilled government, academic, and tech-company responses.

One could call this a secret authoritarian “plot” to preserve the ability to spread antidemocratic conspiracy theories, except that it’s not a secret. It’s all visible, right on the surface. Russia, China, and sometimes other state actors—Venezuela, Iran, Hungary—work with Americans to discredit democracy, to undermine the credibility of democratic leaders, to mock the rule of law. They do so with the goal of electing Trump, whose second presidency would damage the image of democracy around the world, as well as the stability of democracy in America, even further.

This right here is pure propaganda. It's a good thing these liberal shitrags are all going to go out of business soon.

Maybe you can get the psychiatric help you need after they do and you're not triggered everyday.

When asked, the ones that answer rather than refuse to say, won't commit to accepting the outcome of the 2024 election. Democracy means only Republicans win. Hurrah! I applaud the Republicans for being "honest" as far as that word means something to them.

Why Is A24 Burying Its New Documentary About January 6th, 2021?

The Sixth, from two Oscar winners, was released without fanfare. The movie itself suggests a surprising reason.

By Sam Adams | May 09, 2024, 11:00 AM

https://slate.com/culture/2024/05/jan-6-documentary-a24-movie-prime-vi
deo-review.html

A24 released two movies last Friday. One, the buzzy horror movie I Saw the TV Glow, arrived in theaters after months of enthusiastic press, amid a flood of media appearances by its director and stars. The other, a documentary called The Sixth, appeared on digital platforms with little advance notice, and only a single review in a major outlet. Instead of glossy magazine profiles or a trip to the Criterion closet, Oscar-winning directors Sean Fine and Andrea Nix Fine got a Politico article wondering why the hottest distributor in town appeared to be “deep-sixing” a movie about one of the most significant political events of the 21st century: the attempted insurrection of Jan. 6, 2021.

The Sixth is not the only recent A24 release to fly beneath the radar: In 2024 alone, it has released several documentaries straight or all but straight to streaming, including My Mercury, a portrait of conservationist Yves Chesselet, and Open Wide, about the controversial but TikTok-famous orthodontic procedure known as “mewing.” In the case of My Mercury, it took trade publications almost a week to even notice that it had started streaming without notice. A24 may be legendary for its ability to turn a movie like Love Lies Bleeding into a much-hyped must-see, but not everything released under its banner gets or lends itself to the same treatment.

The Fines told Politico’s Michael Schaffer that A24 promised them that The Sixth would start streaming on Prime Video the day of its release, an understanding they shared with the movie’s participants, including Rep. Jamie Raskin, who had been voting to certify the election results when rioters breached the Capitol, and photojournalist Mel D. Cole, who said he turned down interview requests from other filmmakers but had agreed to participate in this documentary because of A24’s cachet. “The Fines are great,” he told Schaffer, “but I didn’t know them.”

Instead of streaming for free on Prime to a potential audience in the tens of millions, The Sixth is currently a $19.99 digital purchase, and although it will be available for rental Thursday, neither price point is likely to reach even a fraction of the viewers—especially when so few of them even know that it’s there. Did the studio behind Civil War get cold feet when it came to the depiction of a nonfictional uprising, or did it simply make the calculation that the documentary wasn’t worth the expense of a theatrical release? The Sixth itself suggests a third, equally troubling possibility: One of the darkest days in American history has simply become too uncomfortable to talk about.

The subjects of The Sixth, who also include two Washington police officers, the then chief of the Metropolitan Police Department, and a congressional spokesperson, recall that day in harrowing detail. Combined with footage from security cameras, body cams, and the insurrectionists’ smartphones, their testimony brings the events of Jan. 6 to vivid and unshakable life. Police officer Daniel Hodges, whose gas mask was ripped from his face by rioters as his body was crushed in a doorway, says he came close to death on numerous occasions, and it’s hard to shake the notion that, as bad as things got, it’s a miracle they didn’t get much, much worse. But amid the sickening sensation of watching American democracy hold on by the thinnest of threads, there’s another feeling woven through their accounts, one it takes Cole, who spent months photographing Trump rallies before ending up in the crowd on Jan. 6, to put into words. “I felt embarrassed for all of us,” he says. “For all of America.”

That’s not all that Cole, who is one of three Black witnesses among The Sixth’s six subjects, felt. He describes outrage at watching the battles his parents and grandparents fought still raging in his adult lifetime, and disbelief at watching Americans turn their backs on the injustice of George Floyd’s murder. (One intriguing through line is the rioters’ use of Black Lives Matter as a reference point: They appropriate the movement’s slogans, like “Whose Streets? Our Streets,” both to mock them and to assert their right to a parallel revolt—one modeled more closely on the violent caricature presented by right-wing media than on BLM itself.) But he’s also stunned by how far those largely white crowds got on Jan. 6, and how fragile that makes things seem. “The things that happened that day, theoretically, are not supposed to happen in this country,” he says. “You know—the greatest country in the world.”

The Fines have called their film nonpartisan, and in a less toxic political climate, its premise, that an election should not be disrupted by mobs in tactical gear assaulting law enforcement officers, ought to be one both sides could endorse without pause or equivocation. But with Donald Trump repeatedly saying he’d pardon the rioters if he is reelected and the Washington establishment war-gaming a repeat next Jan. 6, the issue remains very much a live one. I doubt that anyone who lived through the Capitol riot will ever forget it, and they certainly haven’t a mere three years and change later. But remembering can be a passive act, one that allows you simply to nod in recognition without actually engaging in thought, and that’s the kind of memory The Sixth is designed to reinvigorate. It might be uncomfortable to look back on, but it’s not nearly as uncomfortable as what might happen if we don’t.

I know all the secrets of my local Trumptards. It is not a surprise to anyone except to Trumptards that their lives are overstuffed with difficulties because they are the kind who misunderstand themselves, the kind that don't know of the strong as steel connection between personal hardship and being defective. Trump cannot bless them with his grace because he is also defective. Check out his criminal trials for how Trump badly behaves when he thinks he is unobserved.

Trump is on trial for something he denies doing, which is pretty typical of Trumptards. Do something then claim it didn't happen is standard operating procedure for them. For example of secrets that Trumptards don't want known, there is Trump's sex life revealed under testimony. Trump says he never had sex with Stormy Daniels, but he refuses to testify under oath to the truth of his thousands of times denying doing what he did. Doing it got Trump indicted. Trumptards sympathize with his lying since they do it constantly. I see them doing it every damn day, all day long, about all things. That is the perfect excuse for them to vote for Trump.

2024 Election: A Certain Fatalism Sets In

Political pros start to ask if there’s anything President Biden can do to pull out a victory in November.

Six months to election day and things feel sort of fatalistic. There seems little to discover and nothing new to say about each of the candidates. It’s not going to dawn on you suddenly that Joe Biden is too old and infirm or Donald Trump too crazy. You’ve factored that in. You know what you think of both and have a sense of what compromises you’ll make within yourself to vote for either.

Voters can still be nudged, it’s not over, but Mr. Trump is ahead in most if not all of the battleground states, and I’m struck by the number of political operatives, veterans and thinkers now asking, honestly, if there is anything the president can do to pull it out.

Someone will suggest a “Sister Souljah moment” in which the president distances himself from the cultural left. Then they’ll shake their heads: too late, and who would believe it?

Haha...

Everything I told you goons was going to happen is happening.

The Democrat Party is destroying itself because it lost its identity and stands for nothing.

Trump requests $1 billion donation from oil execs in exchange for rolling back environmental regulations

Former President Donald J. Trump told a group of oil executives and lobbyists gathered at a dinner at his Mar-a-Lago resort last month that they should donate $1 billion to his presidential campaign because, if elected, he would roll back environmental rules that he said hampered their industry, according to two people who were there.

About 20 people attended an April 11 event billed as an “energy round table” at Mr. Trump’s private club, according to those people, who asked not to be identified in order to discuss the private event. Attendees included executives from ExxonMobil, EQT Corporation and the American Petroleum Institute, which lobbies for the oil industry.

The event was organized by the oil billionaire Harold Hamm, who has for years helped to shape Republican energy policies. It was first reported by The Washington Post.

Mr. Trump has publicly railed for months against President Biden’s energy and environmental agenda, as Mr. Biden has raced to restore and strengthen dozens of climate and conservation rules that Mr. Trump had weakened or erased while in office. In particular, Mr. Trump has promised to eliminate Mr. Biden’s new climate rules intended to accelerate the nation’s transition to electric vehicles, and to push a “drill, baby, drill” agenda aimed at opening up more public lands to oil and gas exploration.

Mr. Biden has called climate change an existential threat and has moved to cut the pollution that is dangerously heating the planet and supercharging storms, heat waves and drought.

Over a dinner of chopped steak, Mr. Trump repeated his public promises to delete Mr. Biden’s pollution controls, telling the attendees that they should donate heavily to help him beat Mr. Biden because his policies would help their industries.

Oil industry writes executive orders for Trump to sign

The U.S. oil industry is drawing up ready-to-sign executive orders for Donald Trump aimed at pushing natural gas exports, cutting drilling costs and increasing offshore oil leases in case he wins a second term, according to energy executives with direct knowledge of the work.

The effort stems from the industry’s skepticism that the Trump campaign will be able to focus on energy issues as Election Day draws closer — and worries that the former president is too distracted to prepare a quick reversal of the Biden administration’s green policies. Oil executives also worry that a second Trump administration won’t attract staff skillful enough to roll back President Joe Biden’s regulations or craft new ones favoring the industry, these people added.

Six energy industry lawyers and lobbyists interviewed by POLITICO described the effort to craft executive orders and other policy paperwork that they see as more effective than anything a second Trump administration could devise on its own. Those include a quick reversal of Biden’s pause on new natural gas export permits and preparations for wider and cheaper access to federal lands and waters for drilling.

The initiative is just one example of the efforts underway from multiple advocacy groups with strong policy agendas — including abortion-rights opponents — to fill in the gaps for Trump’s potential return to the White House. The presumptive Republican nominee has been a vocal supporter of the oil and gas industry, but the companies often chafed at the effects of his policies as president, including his trade wars and the legal challenges that thwarted some of his pro-fossil-fuel actions.

This election was never about different values clashing. It's always been about Trump and Trumptards being defective people. 6ix, it is so predictable that you are unbothered by Trump requesting a $1 billion bribe and that you would lie. You are the epitome of a Trump voter. It is why your life is tragic: dishonesty, sickness, loneliness, poverty, futility, and an early grave. Kind of makes me cheerful knowing that the Life gives your kind what you deserve, as it gives me blessings. The Universe is fair and balanced.

Jim Mattis, onetime secretary of defense for the Trump administration, described the former president as “a madman in a circular room screaming.”

Mr Mattis spent 43 years in the Marine Corps, and rose to commander at US Central Command before retiring in 2013 as a four-star general.

He joined the Trump administration as defense secretary in 2017 but lasted only a year, resigning over the president’s decision to remove US forces from Syria.

According to The Atlantic he told Mr Trump: “You’re going to have to get the next secretary of defense to lose to ISIS. I’m not going to do it.”

In 2020, Mr Mattis also penned a letter to The Atlantic denouncing Mr Trump’s presidency.

“Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people — does not even pretend to try,” Mr Mattis wrote.

“Instead he tries to divide us. We are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort. We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership.”

In his 2020 book Rage, journalist Bob Woodward wrote that General Mattis said Mr Trump was “unfit” and “dangerous” as president and had “no moral compass”.

Trump succeeded at normalizing the abnormal, and too often journalists have gone along with it. But please.

THIS IS A PORN STAR TESTIFYING ABOUT AN ALLEGED AFFAIR WITH A FORMER PRESIDENT IN A CRIMINAL TRIAL. The first criminal trial a former president has ever faced. A former president who is the presumptive Republican nominee for president in 2024. And it’s only one of four criminal trials Trump is facing. This is not normal

This is not normal. This is not normal at all. It’s weird. It’s downright bizarre, like something out of an alternate universe. And journalists need to start acting like it is.

Just as importantly, so do their audiences.

Let’s take a step back for a moment here. Six months out from the 2024 presidential election you have the presumptive Republican nominee inside of a courtroom listening to the testimony of an adult film star in which she is alleging that Donald Trump engaged in an extra-marital affair just four months after his son, Barron, was born. This is hitting at the heart of the creditably of not Stormy Daniels, but of the defendant, Donald Trump.

Trump has been found in contempt of court 10 times. Has there ever been anyone since, I don’t know, a Roman emperor, who so blatantly demonstrates that they don't believe the rules apply to them?

On Wednesday, House Speaker Johnson was pushing the new Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. But it has been illegal since the 1920s for non-citizens to vote in federal elections. Congress in 1996 codified registering to vote for a federal election by a non-citizen as a federal crime eligible for prison time and fines.

Johnson repeatedly cited the immigration crisis at the southern border while talking about alleged voter fraud.

He was immediately exasperated when pressed for proof. And then he just gave up the game.

"We all know intuitively, that a lot of illegals are voting in federal elections," Johnson said. "But it's not been something that is easily provable."

Let's translate "intuitively" to the real world: The House speaker was pushing a lie.

The Brennan Center and the Cato Institute have both studied non-citizen voting in federal elections and found it to be "vanishingly rare" and certainly not a factor that could "actually shift the outcome of elections."

umbers

Here's what they didn't discuss at Mar-a-Lago last month or the Capitol on Wednesday: Trump and Johnson in February persuaded Republicans in Congress to abandon a bipartisan deal on immigration reform crafted by Sen. James Lankford, a conservative from Oklahoma.

Trump's reasoning was that he didn't want Biden to score a legislative win in an election year on an issue that Trump could keep criticizing him about.

Democrats and the Legacy Media really appear to be freaking out about what I've said from the beginning. They're only now realizing that they're not going to be able to put Trump in prison and they're actually going to have to run on their own merits... which means they have nothing to run on at all except for the abortion issue.

These next 6 months should be fun. Don't forget your popcorn.

Au contraire. The Trumptards I know live difficult lives. Trump's life has been one crisis after another for the last forty years. He is on trial because he is unstable. He is not balanced. He has endless problems, as do his Trumptards, because they are poorly behaved individuals.

The former president’s shakedown of oil executives may not have been illegal, but it is undeniably scandalous.

By David A. Graham | May 9, 2024, 12:09 PM ET

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/05/trumps-legal-corrupt
-offer-oil-executives/678333/

One of the few ways in which Donald Trump has improved American politics is in making explicit what was once veiled in implication or euphemism. During the 2016 election, for example, he said what everyone knew but no politicians would acknowledge: That wealthy donors bought access and fealty with their contributions.

These blunt statements have endeared him to supporters who see Trump as a rare figure willing to speak about how special interests and corporations conspire with politicians to screw over ordinary Americans. And because he is a billionaire, they see him as immune to these pressures, wealthy enough to not be beholden in the same way as typical politicians.

That brings us to a Washington Post article this morning. At a Mar-a-Lago meeting in April, oil executives complained that despite them having poured hundreds of millions into lobbying the government, the Biden administration had pursued stronger environmental regulations. “Trump’s response stunned several of the executives in the room overlooking the ocean: You all are wealthy enough, he said, that you should raise $1 billion to return me to the White House,” the Post reports. In exchange, Trump vowed to roll back current regulations and freeze future ones. He told them that, given the savings, a billion bucks would be a “deal” for them.

What Trump was offering is entirely legal and absolutely corrupt. (Or to borrow a phrase: very legal and very uncool.) Thanks to Trump’s bluntness, there can be no hair-splitting about what’s going on here, and that’s good for public understanding. Trump asked special interests for an eye-popping fee in exchange explicit favors. Trump and the oil companies might argue (dubiously) that their preferred regime would actually be better for consumers, but they are cutting “the people” out of the discussion entirely, subverting democracy. The deal is getting done between Trump and the suits, behind closed doors. It’s a good reminder that Trump’s claim to being an outsider is a sham.

American politics would be healthier if all politicians were so transparent about such deals (though, of course, it would be better were they not making such deals at all). Everyone might “know” that politicians are cutting deals for powerful interests, but they seldom know what exactly those deals are, so it’s hard for them to take it into account when voting. (This is one reason the federal indictment of Senator Bob Menendez, the New Jersey Democrat, is so riveting: The alleged trades are all laid out so plainly.)

Trump, however, has said he’s different. Many people took his frankness about how the system works to mean that he wouldn’t act the same way as the politicians he excoriated. What this report shows is that he’s no different. Trump was describing transactionalism, not critiquing it, and the idea that Donald Trump would ever object to transactionalism is absurd. He’s a grandee in good standing of the Leopards Eating Faces Party.

In fact, he’s arguably worse. An ordinary politician might have approached this situation with a touch more finesse. First, he’d listen to the executives’ concerns. Then, he’d lay out his agenda on energy. Finally, a campaign aide would hit the executives up for donations. That offers a little bit of deniability, which in turns gives a politician in office some wiggle room. It’s not like donors can call him up and say, You made an explicit promise to do this for me! That would be unseemly. If the oil suits produce $1 billion and Trump wins, however, they can do exactly that, since he’s offered an explicit quid pro quo. Not only is he just as beholden to special interests as anyone else, here he’s going out of his way to make himself beholden.

One final tawdry thing about Trump’s offer is the implicit threat it contains. If they don’t pass the hat to produce the cash, Trump might not pursue the same policies—and, as he notes, that could cost them dearly.

Trump runs a real risk to his reputation, as well as his election, by being quite so direct about what he’s offering. One of the biggest scandals in American political history was Teapot Dome, which involved federal officials trading favors to the oil business in exchange for cash. It’s one reason that Warren Harding, the president at the time, has often been ranked among the very worst by historians. (Trump has surpassed him in some recent surveys thanks to his attempt to steal the 2020 election.)

Voters just don’t like corruption very much, and Trump’s offer here is not only plainly corrupt but cuts to the center of the political persona he has cultivated. Trump is a bold truth-teller sometimes about the system, but seldom about himself.

You believe that Trump doesn't deserve the misfortunes that have befallen him, don't you? In your heart you know it is the Democrats' fault that Trump is on trial. It certainly couldn't be because of Trump's rotten behavior. Also, smoking does not cause death. People who don't smoke also die. Those smokers who die? It was NOT caused by their behavior. To say that their death was caused by their smoking is tantamount to blaming the victim. Just kidding. The truth is that smoking kills and cheating/lying/incompetence/stupidity/thievery/rape is why Trump is in court and should not be President.

6ix, your sentences are the words of someone who seeks out failure. Everything ends with death, so 6ix gives up early to hurry the process. Turn it around and it becomes 6ix gave up struggling against adversity so that life could end with an early death. A humorist made 6ix's sentiment into a comic:

Exigology (noun): A statement whose converse is its own explanation. Examples:

Politicians never do what my group wants, so I never vote.

I’m terrible at this, so I’m not even gonna try.

Life is short, so I’m eating as many bacon salad sandwiches as possible.
