Deep State has been a hideous cancer for decades now. Some of them have been emboldened more, thinking they have immunity due to being "civil service employees"

With the widespread insidious crimes, treason, etc from Brandon's admin, they have been rampant in their crimes.
If new POTUS and new congress investigatr crimes, they can leverage pleas from political appointees to turn out civil servants en masse.

Eventually, if nations have credible voting procedures, I imagine that the governments of USA- dependents will eventually come to reflect the view of their people more closely.

The BIG downside will be the scramble for nuclear security. If the USA's nuclear umbrella folds, some EU nations may want to make their own weapons.
Nuclear proliferation might occur.

There would have to be multilateral negotiations. It might be better for all involved if the USA retained it's defensive nuclear umbrella over NATO nations, or even expanded it, which would vastly simplify nuclear agreements.

Iowa Poll: Kamala Harris leapfrogs Donald Trump to take lead near Election Day. Here's how

Leapfrogs! LEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAPFRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOGSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!




SPOILER ALERT: Harris is so far underwater in freakin' Iowa that FiveThirtyEight doesn't even bother calculating an aggregate, probably because nobody is even bothering to poll Iowa.

What was your polling methodology? 100% Democrat voting, college "educated", single women between 35 and 45 who are 50lbs or more overweight with unnaturally colored hair?

Emerson College just gave Trump +9 in Iowa 2 days ago. Stop smoking crack.

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/iowa/


And just for comparison's sake, Emerson only gave Trump +1 on Halloween of 2020, and Trump won Iowa in 2020 by +8.2.

Grow up and accept your loss and stop riling up the idiots on the Left right before their world comes crashing down all around them.

We'll see what polling looks like on Monday, but I think Trump might actually have a chance at a few of the states it looks like he was going to take from Biden too, including states like Virginia and New Hampshire.

I heard this the other day and got a pretty good laugh out of it. I still don't know if it's true or not.

A year long party, huh?

I don't know if that's a good idea in a great economy. I'm glad that Trump won and we can stop the bleeding, but unless you've got a magic wand that can fix the economy by mid-summer, you can probably forget about this event making a huge splash for more than about a weekend.

It's a point that "left wingers" seem to forget. They think that as long as they espouse "virtuous" causes...R2P, "freedom", "antifa", "saving the world", or what have you .. it excuses any destructive or abusive behavior.

Now that's how you make a Tick Tock thread, Theodore.

2 1/2 days later, Joe Biden* drops out of the race.

I guess Nate Silver's model was bullshit all along, huh Second? I'm right again.

Imagine that.



If anybody is wondering why he doesn't just call it quits this very second since it's clear to everyone in the world that Joe Biden* can't even wipe his own ass at this point, let alone continue his job being the "leader of the free world", well here you go...



Don't worry about paying me for mocking all that up for you Joe*. I don't want any of you or Hunter's blood money.

President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who faced sentencing this month for federal tax and gun convictions, marking a reversal as he prepares to leave office.

“Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter,” the president said in a statement. It is a “full and unconditional pardon,” according to a copy of the executive grant of clemency.

This official grant of clemency cannot be rescinded by President-elect Donald Trump.

By pardoning his son, Joe Biden has reneged on a public promise that he made repeatedly before and after dropping out of the 2024 presidential race. The president and his top White House spokesperson said unequivocally, including after Trump won the 2024 election, that he would not pardon Hunter Biden or commute his sentence.

SCOTT JENNINGS: Daniel Penny is a hero. I agree with virtually everything Carrie said, except for one quibble, and that is, you know, you said there were failures on all sides.

There's a lot of failures here. The only person who did not fail was Penny. Penny was a Good Samaritan. He stood up for his fellow citizens in a moment when a lot of people would have not been able to, would have not wanted to, just could not have summoned the courage or will to do so, and so thank God for the good Samaritans.

I think the biggest failure here, honestly, Alvin Bragg is a disgrace. He ought to resign. This man was a hero. He had his name and his life dragged through the mud for absolutely no reason other than he thought it would please radical political constituencies that he has. It is an absolute disgrace what the prosecutors did to this man.
