MAGA GOP, NOW REDUCED TO THE SECTARIAN PERSONALITY CULT OF A DESPISED CRIMINAL WEIRDO, IS FIRMLY ON TRACK FOR EXTINCTION;
HARRIS LOCKS IN DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION IN VIRTUAL ROLL CALL OF STATES; VICE PRESIDENTIAL AND CONVENTION BOUNCES STILL TO COME;
FOCUS ON NOVEMBER-DECEMBER LAME DUCK SESSION, WITH BEATEN AND HUMILIATED TRUMP HEADED BACK INTO TRIALS ON WAY TO PRISON; RETIRING AND DEFEATED MAGAts SHOULD BE UNABLE TO BLOCK SUCH URGENT BILLS AS RETURN TO ROE, VOTING RIGHTS, SUPREME COURT REFORM, AND DEFENSE INDUSTRIAL POLICY;
The Bulwark joins discussion of how Republican Party may follow Federalists and Whigs into oblivion; Trump has lost his nerve, is gripped by fear of debate with Harris, freaks out over fact-checking proposed by NABJ; a personality cult without the person has no other unity and must be torn apart by rivalries;
Harris raises more than double Trump's take, despite his post-Butler sympathy windfall; GOP split and fragmented as historical leaders boycott Trump, 42 top Trump administration officials refuse to endorse him;
Israel eliminates three top pro-Iranian terrorist leaders: $4 billion butcher Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas Politburo; Hamas Gaza military commander Mohammed Deif; and Fuad Shukr, the Hezbollah military commander and top adviser to Nasrallah; These are combattants, but Netanyahu's true strategic goal remains embroiling US in needless war with Iran, with added intent of helping Trump return to power, as stated by Bibi's warmonger ally, messianic settler honcho Itamar Ben Gvir;
Biden delivers masterpiece of humanitarian diplomacy in largest prisoner swap since end of Cold War, freeing 16 from Kremlin and Belarus captivity in exchange for 8 Russian persons and 2 children; German Chancellor Scholz credits Biden personally with success; Deal involved Russia, Belarus, Slovenia, Poland, US, Estonia, Germany, Norway, Maldives;
Biden praises allies and friends as indispensable partners, contradicting MAGA xenophobic demagogy; Humiliated Trump last seen sidelined, irrelevant, and whining with typical delusional claim he could have magically freed everybody while giving Putin nothing;
@MichaelTalon why are you yelling? it's okay. you're in a relatively safe space to share news about kamala. 😊
@singlemaltgirl Headline for the article. ☺️
@MichaelTalon The lame duck session will still have the GOP in charge of The House, regardless of the election results. They will be able to block anything they choose to, unless someone with a greater hold on them than their usual contributors compels them otherwise. I have a hard time imagining much getting done. Unless they lose a few more members in the next 2 months, I expect no meaningful action.
