From a staffer of Bennie Thompson who wanted to deny SS protection for Trump:
Now-deleted Facebook post by a staffer of Mississippi's lone Democrat congressman appeared to support the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday.
The deleted post by Jacqueline Marsaw, a field director for U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Mississippi, said "I don't condone violence but please get you some shooting lessons so you don't miss next time ooops [sic] that wasn't me talking."

Democratic Colorado state Rep. Steven Woodrow had no “sympathy” for former president Donald Trump after he was shot in the ear in an apparent assassination attempt.

“If you think I am ever going to agree with your left wing liberal bs, better think again because…”
Each time I ask what “left wing liberal bs” you’re referring to, there’s no reply. So perhaps it will work if I simply lay out what my positions have been and still are on various issues…
Social security -- The program needs to be rationalized to put it on a self-sustaining position by increasing the eligibility age for various levels of benefits, raising the upper limit of withholding contributions, critically reviewing eligibility for “disability” benefits, and reasonable means testing.
Government -- Reduction in the size of government by a periodic zero-base budgeting approach, and review for duplication with state and local activities.
Federal Budget – Require a balanced budget within 5 years, prevent deficit increases, and review applicability and appropriateness of personal and corporate tax rates.
Medicare -- Review Medicare withholding to set progressive rates.
Immigration -- Support comprehensive immigration reform by Congressional action to set a path to citizenship for individuals gainfully employed (tax paying) for 5 or more years and childhood arrivals, provide for agricultural work permits, revised asylum law to eliminate inclusion of illegal border crossers, permit more legal immigrants with essential work skills.
Border Control -- Increase border patrol numbers, add more technical surveillance of critical border areas, add or strengthen border security fencing where needed, increase drug detection equipment to examine trucks and vehicles at legal border crossings.

I will start here and work my way up.
Not exactly sure what you are referring to but will remind you again what the Constitution and Laws of this country have to say about any citizen Leftau, and that would include Trump.
You are considered innocent until found guilty by a jury of your peers in a court of law.
And I am going to add this much more.
I have stated before I was not for Trump runnig for President again as I am sure of one thing in my own mind.
If Trump wins the harrassment by the Democrats will commence the day after inauguration as it did in 2017. Just think what could have been done for America if the two parties could work together. It was amazintg to me that anything positive was accomplished during that Presidency. First it wa Russian Collusion and on and on and on. And just what was accomplished other than a waste of American Taxpayer dollars.
Yes you have your indictments as a Democrat Leftau. However with the same amount of attention given to most any of our politicians you could get the same thing.
You like to chant your little Litany of x number of impeachments etc. like a grade school kid, but they all failed and were nothing but a waste of time.
More later, I have things to do.

Like I stated the US Constitution protects the Innocent and that's what Judge Cannon used in her decision making.....you against the Constitution?
"Cannon dismissed the case on the grounds that the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith violated the appointments clause of the Constitution."
Lettau you weren't upset that Biden got off Scott free for the same charges but hey that's OK because as Special Counsel Hur pointed out that Biden was an old forgetful man!

A Huge Screw Up by the Secret Service in protecting President Trump is brushed off by the DEI Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle who was never an SS Agent and whose priority was to make the SS 30% Female. Saw a video of the stage at the moment of the SS gathering around Trump and this one Female Agent took 4 attempts to holster her gun....good grief! Kimberly Cheatle has to go but her DEI appointment will protect her.

Counter-snipers were in the building and encountered the gunman, expressing concern about Crooks’s possible security risks shortly before the shooting. Witnesses who saw Crooks on the building’s rooftop, visibility armed with a rifle, warned police and Secret Service agents minutes before shots rang out.
Seriously? They should be “expressing concern” after splattering his brains before not after he took the shots.

Why didn't one of the People who reported seeing "a strange man walking around and pointing him out to the police" or "saw a strange man climbing the steps on the building" not try to take the gun away from the "strange man". Where are the Americans, Home of the Brave, Land of the Free..'We the People', all of us are Americans...walk up behind the "strange man" and grab him around the neck to take him down and kick the gun away as he drops it . . After he's down punch him in the throat so he can't breath then commence to beat his face in..
The Free Press includes social media which is more dangerous and bias then the MSM Media. Chatrooms, X(twitter) , tiktok, Facebook(META)have more influence and power then CNN , Fox , MSNBS , Newsmax , etc , etc , etc. It can and is being used to divide and anger the People. IMO , this shooting is no surprise and is late due to the never ending hate rhetoric on social media which includes the victim himself.
The boy was immediately took out by snipers , the snipers had to know exactly where he was . Why weren't the snipers pro-active instead of re-active and answer questions later-- they are anyway . Irony , since the debate on June 27 untill July 13 , all of the media attention and spot light has been about Joe Biden. Enough already , the RNC starts on monday , put all of the media attention and spot light back on Trump -- the man got his ear pierced , it wasn't a skull shot. The only "God" that saved Trump from a skull shot is a 20 year old inexperience snipper kid , a hunter would have took him out . Anybody notice how fumble muck is on page 6 now and not a concern ? The man can't walk or talk , he's a lost man living in his own lost world but nobody seems to care anymore .
To the Americans who continue to die during America's political violence , "hao ! se-va'he wik'to t'shunk'ta'!"
That boy reminds me Lee Harvey Oswald except for one thing.

When Teddy Roosevelt Was Shot in 1912
Theodore Roosevelt’s opening line was hardly remarkable for a presidential campaign speech: “Friends, I shall ask you to be as quiet as possible.” His second line, however, was a bombshell.
“I don’t know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot.”
Holding up his prepared remarks, which had two big holes blown through each page, Roosevelt continued. “Fortunately I had my manuscript, so you see I was going to make a long speech, and there is a bullet—there is where the bullet went through—and it probably saved me from it going into my heart. The bullet is in me now, so I cannot make a very long speech, but I will try my best.”
Few could doubt him. Although his voice weakened and his breath shortened, Roosevelt glared at his nervous aides whenever they begged him to stop speaking or positioned themselves around the podium to catch him if he collapsed. Only with the speech completed did he agree to visit the hospital.
The shooting had occurred just after 8 p.m. as Roosevelt entered his car outside the Gilpatrick Hotel. As he stood up in the open-air automobile and waved his hat with his right hand to the crowd, a flash from a Colt revolver 5 feet away lit up the night.
Although there were no outward signs of blood, the former president reached inside his heavy overcoat and felt a dime-sized bullet hole on the right side of his chest. “He pinked me,” Roosevelt told a party official. He coughed into his hand three times. Not seeing any telltale blood, he determined that the bullet hadn’t penetrated his lungs. An accompanying doctor naturally told the driver to head directly to the hospital, but Colonel Roosevelt gave different marching orders: “You get me to that speech.”
..
"Patriotism is to Country , not to President."

And it sounds as if a number of the folks responsible for the safety of the subject to be protected are simply a waste of good oxygen.

Fumble muck has tried almost everything to atone for his Debate fiasco . From T.V. interviews , to speeches at NATO meetings , to headline DEI rallys ..none of which have made any real difference in fumble muck or his candidacy.
The Party is now a turkey shoot .
Of course conspiracy theories are , and will , come out regarding Trump's ear ...I best leave that go because the MASGAOA(Make America So Great All Over Again , signs seen at the RNC convention)) appear to be very , very , sensitive about flesh wounds..they are nasty and soooos close to death...of course he couldn't finish that speech , he's no Teddy Roosevelt..

Rep. Adam Schiff calls for President Biden to ‘pass the torch’
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) became one of the most prominent and high-ranking Democrats to call for President Biden to withdraw from the presidential race on Wednesday.
In a statement to NewsNation, Schiff wrote: “While the choice to withdraw from the campaign is President Biden’s alone, I believe it is time for him to pass the torch. And in doing so, secure his legacy of leadership by allowing us to defeat Donald Trump in the upcoming election.”
Schiff is one of multiple Democrats who have called for Biden to step out of the race.

Police in Milwaukee arrested an armed man wearing a ski mask a few blocks outside of the Republican National Convention on Tuesday.
A 21-year-old Donnell Tinsley was taken into custody around after authorities observed him “looking suspicious” and carrying a large tactical backpack outside of the security zone at Fiserv Forum, where thousands are attending the conference, the Milwaukee Police Department said in a statement to NewsNation.
The arrest came one day after Ohio police officers stationed in Milwaukee for the convention shot and killed a man who was wielding two knives near the arena.
Five members of the Columbus, Ohio, police department fired on the man, who had a knife in each hand, refused police commands and charged at an unarmed man before police fired, Milwaukee Police Chief Jeffrey Norman said at a news conference.
Two knives were recovered from the scene, authorities said.

Still believing fumble muck is gonna step down , just thought it would be a lot sooner then now , like early spring before the RNC Convention . IMO , the announcement of fumble muck stepping down could happen as early as today , maybe to happen the same day as Trump's speech at the RNC convention trying to distract him and his speech . No worries , he'll still have the gauze and a slew of attenders claim him as Biblical . IMO , JD Vance is only 39 old and is to carry on the MAGA should Trump meet his demise at 78 .
The $64,000 question is who will step up and take over for fumble muck . If it's the cackling hen she'll get crushed this Nov. ....and of course Trump getting his ear pierced is gonna give him the advantage , how can anyone feel sorry for the man now ? ggeezzz
My gal Nikki was the only speaker that wasn't drooling "Trump" , she stressed unity of Party and country . JD Vance seems to be living in reality more then Trump in my book . Trump's big speech might tell the tale of Nov .
Biden vs. Trump just might not be the Nov. 2024 ballot , there's a lot of sewage to go under the bridge yet -- it's starting to really stink now ..

Yes I was while she opposed Trump ...she did to the point where she was getting more and more delegates . A poster , I won't say who , posted she was a Democrat taking delegates and People away from Trump ...actually , Trump began his personal attacks because he was getting worried himself .
What's curious is Nikki was still getting votes after she dropped , she only did what she did so her delegates would unite with the Republican Party ...anyone who watched her speak could see she wasn't kissing the ring as every other speaker was doing .

In my humble opinion
Aren't Democrats Americans too same as Republicans or any other Party in America . Trump was a Democrat between 2001-2009 . He was also an Independent twice . He left the Republican Party to join the Democrats then left the Democrats to return to the Republican Party . He's now a Populist .
I don't care for the man for several reason but he's still an American in my book . But so are Democrats .

Democrats question nominating Biden
The Democratic National Committee announced that a virtual vote to officially nominate Biden for reelection will not take place until August at the earliest.
The timing of the Democratic National Convention — Aug. 19-22 — became an issue after Ohio originally set an early August deadline for state ballots to be finalized, possibly leading to Biden or whoever gets nominated by Democrats being left off the ballot in the state.
However, the state later pushed the deadline to the end of the month.
Some House Democrats have raised concerns about rushing through the nomination process and holding a virtual roll call vote before the convention.
The Democratic National Committee’s rulemaking arm is set to meet Friday to discuss how the virtual vote plans will work and to finalize them next week.

Don't have much confidence in the hen , don't believe I'm alone either , methinks she'll be the designated driver until November at best -- would the Administration just hand over the keys to the Mercedes to the hen ? Nah...
Things are looking worse for the Democrats daily but surprises are surprises , a person never knows except for fumble muck if he's still on the Ballot . His campaign folks , Administration , and inner circle feed him lies to try and shield him from reality -- the man really doesn't have a grip on the inner Party rebellion .
The "Republicans" , or new Populist MAGA Party , appear to be more united then before . The Democrats appear to be like raking the leaf's in the fall while the wind is blowing .
IMO , the average American are watching the whole thing thinking WTF ?

..btw , there were big white signs saying "Make America Great Once Again" at the RNC Convention .

Rick S.,
Saying "...he's stolen enough..." brings up the obvious question. What proof is there that he's "stolen" anything? If there's valid evidence of your assertion, where is it?
It's a fact that the republican Congressional committees don't have proof. If they did they would have used it long ago. The simple truth is that there was no criminality.
Something that keeps being ignored is that he's had investments both in real estate other areas, he's written about 25 books, he's been paid speaking fees, etc.
Do you really belive he's been a "crooked" politician for about 40 years and there's zero evidence? How could that be?
If you accept all of the conspiracy theories that are floated out there, you could think so, but without proof he's still innocent.
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Sat, Jul 20, 2024, at 10:12 AM

IMO , all politicians make money off of pork, it's what they do , it's who they are . Biden's not alone in any way except he's the President and made a 40 year career of doing it . What make's you believe all Presidents weren't getting fat stacks before they were Presidents .
To get back to what's important, the man is no longer physically or mentally able to do the job of President . This was questionable from the get and now it's 4 years later.
If he cared about Country and People before himself he would step down . This is what happens when there are career politicians .
-- Posted by Scaggs on Sat, Jul 20, 2024, at 10:27 AM
40+ years as a career ”politician” generally equals crooked.
“Stolen enough” Yet to be seen what the old reprobate has received for all his nefarious doings but spending millions,billions and trillions like it was his to dole out in his case for political favors,ie,votes is close enough to stolen for any sensible observer.
-- Posted by DA Braswell on Sat, Jul 20, 2024, at 10:28 AM
Democratic strategists and party insiders say President Biden’s postdebate crisis response has been as damaging to his chances of beating former President Trump in November as the disastrous debate performance itself.
They say there’s little Biden can do to change the narrative short of dropping out of the race, a view that is shared by a majority of Democratic senators and a large number of Democratic House members.
Gaffes Biden made at the NATO summit and in interviews with George Stephanopoulos and Black Entertainment Television, the waning support of media stalwarts such as MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, and the worsening divisions within the Democratic Party have only solidified the prevailing view that Biden can’t beat Trump.

"...the man is no longer physically or mentally able to do the job of President."
Agree partially. He is totally capable of completing this term, but clearly not to serve for another 4 years.
I was of that opinion as far back as June of 2022 and in another comment on March 1, 2023.
I'm completly in favor of President Biden withdrawing from the campaign. Harris is just one of several possibilities to replace him, and all are fully capable of running over Trump.
What seems to have happened is that it's now the republicans with the over-the-hill, incompetent, doddering (reference his disjointed, repetitious acceptance speech) old man.

Cheatle has gone from protecting Pepsi from a terrorist attack to the head of the Secret Service promoting DEI as a requirement for new agents. The sloped roof excuse wasn’t even close to an excuse as the snipers who took out the would be assassin(who had no issues climbing up there)were on at least same slope if not more inclined.
What’s even more incredulous is ol Joe wasn’t aware Cheatle was the head of the SS. So who nominated her? “dr Jill”? Hussein? Big Mike?
Joe has to go along with people like Cheatle.
-- Posted by DA Braswell on Sat, Jul 20, 2024, at 9:10 PM
He appointed her on August 25, 2022. She had about 25 years experience in the Secret Service. Where do you get your information?
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Sat, Jul 20, 2024, at 9:37 PM
My bad. I think I indicated Biden nominated Cheatle when in fact he appointed her after she served as senior director of global security at PepsiCo, where she was responsible for directing and implementing security protocols for the company's facilities in North America. Appointed at the recommendation by “dr” Jill. After 3 years at PepsiCo no assassins attacked any Pepsi executives by assuring there were no sloped roofs.
When Biden was asked after the assasination attempt on Trump he said he had met with the SS,FBI,etc then referred to Cheatle as “him”. Considering an inability to define a woman I guess that wasn’t a mistake.

But don't wander around pretending you're running the most "electable" candidate ever again. Don't pretend you care about that. Acknowledge publicly that you're ideologues with a very specific, very ineffective, very unserious set of beliefs and the outcomes you get are because of those beliefs, not in spite of them.

World leaders react to Biden’s exit from the 2024 US presidential race
“Messages of gratitude and support for US President Joe Biden poured in following his stunning announcement Sunday that he is exiting the 2024 presidential race and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the next Democratic nominee.
“It was the second seismic moment in US politics in just over a week, following the assassination attempt against former president Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally on July 13, which saw global leaders rally around him as the Republican nominee.
“Pressure had mounted on Biden to pull out of the race since his disastrous performance at the CNN presidential debate last month, and on Sunday, he confirmed he would remain a one-term president, prompting a flood of tributes from US allies who thanked him for his leadership.
“British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who met with Biden this month in Washington, said he respects the president’s decision and looks forward to working together for the remainder of his term.
“I know that, as he has done throughout his remarkable career, he will have made his decision based on what he believes is best for the American people,” Starmer wrote on X.
“Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thanked Biden for being a “true friend” to his country. “He’s a great man, and everything he does is guided by his love for his country,”
“In a news conference, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Biden deserves to be recognized for “once again not putting himself forward first, but giving his first consideration to being what he believes is in the interests of the United States of America, as he has done his whole public life.”
“President Biden has dedicated his life to public service, and that is something that deserves much respect,” New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said on X.
“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked Biden for his “unwavering support” in his country’s war against Russia, which the US has backed with weapons, military aid and diplomatic support, despite backlash from Republicans.
“Many strong decisions have been made in recent years and they will be remembered as bold steps taken by President Biden in response to challenging times,” Zelensky said on X.
“We will always be thankful for President Biden’s leadership.”
“Meanwhile, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow was “not too surprised” by Biden’s withdrawal. “In recent years, what has been happening in the United States has taught us not to be surprised by anything,” Peskov told reporters Monday.
“This topic should concern American voters, but not us,” he said, adding that “what is very important for us is the future of Russian-American relations, which are now experiencing the worst period in history.”
“Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that, whoever wins the US presidential election, Israel will remain “an irreplaceable ally” for Washington in the Middle East.
“Speaking on Monday from the tarmac of Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport ahead of boarding a flight to the US, Netanyahu said his trip was an opportunity to thank Biden “for the things he did for the state of Israel, both in the war and during his years of service as a senator, as vice president and as president.”
“President Isaac Herzog described Biden as a “true ally of the Jewish people,” while Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said the US president’s “steadfast backing, especially during the war, has been invaluable,” both in posts to X.
“Biden has been one of the biggest supporters of Israel’s war in Gaza since Hamas’ October 7 attacks. But he has increasingly clashed with Netanyahu over humanitarian aid and the mounting civilian death toll of the conflict.
“Irish Taoiseach Simon Harris called Biden “a proud American with an Irish soul,” and thanked him for his “global leadership” and “friendship.”
“Other leaders commended Biden for making what must have been a tough decision to drop out of the race.
“My friend Joe Biden has achieved a lot: for his country, for Europe, for the world,” German chancellor Olaf Scholz wrote on X. “His decision not to run again deserves respect.”
“Speaking at a rally Sunday, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said Biden made the “correct” decision and put his family and health first. He wished him “health and a long life.”
“Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on X that Biden had made difficult decisions “thanks to which Poland, America and the world are safer, and democracy stronger.”
“I know you were driven by the same motivations when announcing your final decision. Probably the most difficult one,” Tusk said.
“Leaders in South Korea and Japan said they would not comment about domestic politics in the US but emphasized the need to continue to work with the White House. Both nations have a mutual defense treaty with the United States and Biden was a major promoter of deepening ties between allies in Asia, in part to counter the growing assertiveness of China.
“I recognize that President Biden’s decision is based on his desire to make the best possible political decision,” said Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. “The Japan-US alliance is the cornerstone of our nation’s diplomatic security, and we will continue to monitor it closely.”
“The office of South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said it will “continue to work closely with the US to further develop the South Korea-US global comprehensive strategic alliance.”
“Philippine President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos JR said Biden’s “decision to withdraw from his candidacy is a demonstration of genuine statesmanship.”
“We thank him for his constant and unwavering support for the Philippines in a delicate and difficult time,” he wrote on X. The Philippines, which is also a treaty ally of the US, has found itself increasingly confronting Chinese vessels in the South China Sea in recent years.
There was no official word from Chinese leader Xi Jinping as of Monday morning local time.
“But “Biden dropping out of the election” was the top trending topic early Monday on Weibo, China’s X-like social platform, with five more related topics including discussions of Kamala Harris and Trump’s assassination attempt together accumulating more than 400 million views.
“Some Chinese social media users excitedly speculated about the prospect of a woman becoming US president, while others said they believe Trump will win no matter the Democratic candidate.
“The shot was definitely a good deal for Trump!” one Weibo user wrote.
“One user remarked, “that one shot didn’t kill Trump but dropped Biden,” while another described the political situation in the US as “a total mess.”

Your assertion (of walked on) just demonstrates your blindness to international affairs.
Are you aware that NATO is significantly stronger now than it's ever been? Trump's blustering had nothing to do with this. He didn't add Finland and Sweden to NATO.

It is a bad thing when a newly elected President announces they will nominate the first black woman candidate for the Supreme Court . This eliminates about 92% of Americans right off the get , some of which could most proberbly be way more qualified including one of the wise Elder People from the Rez. The same goes for anybody running for President announcing their vice president running candidate will be the first black woman . Vote buying from the floor up , wide open racism vote buying .
It's as racist as anything Trump is pushing . I don't believe in the DEI , that's a sales pitch no different then MAGA .

OR do you feel great from buying and financing a large ticket item at High Biden Interest Rates.
OR do you feel great after giving Ukraine $115 billion of Taxpayers monies to secure their borders while the USA Borders are Wide open.
OR do you feel great Supporting the over 7.5 million New Dependent Biden Illegals since 1/21/21.
OR do you feel great paying off student loans that the SCOTUS said was unconstitutional.
OR do you feel great in Democratic controlled big cities with the possibility of being a victim while walking down the sidewalk.
OR do you feel great while having a president that Mumbles and Stumbles who is Senile, Demented, and is the Resident of the White House Nursing Home.......
Or do you want a Cackling Hen for VP while running as a DEI replacement for the Democratic candidate for President.

-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Tue, Jul 23, 2024, at 7:49 PM
Now that that democracy thing is out of the way they will get back to saving it.
-- Posted by DA Braswell on Tue, Jul 23, 2024, at 7:49 PM
Here's the actual truth, Mr. Schaefer...
High inflation was due to the worldwide Covid pandemic, disruption of supply chains, oil production decreases, joblessness and massive industrial layoffs and declining production.
The US actually suffered less than other first world nations. A contributing factor here was the payments that our government made to individuals. Under the Trump administration, in December 2020, the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 became law, . a second round of advanced payments. The financial impact was clearly inflationary but saved millions of Americans from poverty or losing their jobs or businesses.
----- ---- --- -- -
High interest rates were due to high inflation.
----- ---- --- -- -
There were almost no taxpayer monies given directly to Ukraine. The $115 billion was spent on munitions made in US factories for Ukraine or to replace US stocks. Weapons were required to allow them to prevent Communist Russia and Putin from overrunning their country.
----- ---- --- -- -
US borders are not wide open and have never been. Asylum seekers are allowed in per US law. About 50% of encounters are immediately returned or put into deportation proceedings. A bipartisan bill to strengthen the border was denied by House republicans per direction from Trump.
----- ---- --- -- -
The current student loan forgiveness program is not unconstitutional.
----- ---- --- -- -
The U.S. is experiencing a significant decline nationally in homicides, according to FBI data. The descending numbers are not an aberration, says Northeastern University criminologist James Alan Fox, who notes that U.S. murders have been on the decrease for three decades. And yet Americans are generally not aware of the trend, he says.
Homicides throughout the U.S. decreased by 26.4% overall in the first quarter of 2024, according to the FBI data, which was released on June 10. Violent crimes overall — including rapes, aggravated assaults and robberies — dropped by more than 15% in that span.
----- ---- --- -- -
Candidate Trump is the one who mumbles and stumbles, can’t read teleprompters and who is probably the senile and demented one. He's also the only one left on the shuffleboard court and clearly needs to resign
----- ---- --- -- -
Having a VP that understands diversity, equality and inclusion is a benefit to our nation.
What we don’t need is white supremacy, exclusion and inequality.
----- ---- --- -- -
Most normal Americans know that America has always been great. Trump’s single objective is to put himself first again, not the nation.

What a great "it's just one guy from China" year. Thanks President Trump.
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Tue, Jul 23, 2024, at 7:49 PM
What was really said and not just your oft repeated snippet, like a 6th grader Leftau.
Jan. 22
The day that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed what it then thought was the first case of the coronavirus in the United States, Trump told a CNBC reporter that the country had it "completely under control" and suggested that he was not concerned about a pandemic.
"We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine," he said.
Which was really all of the information he had at the time.
And you forget, Trump was responsible for getting government bureaucracy out of the way, so a vaccine could be developed by Science in record time.
My suggestion for you Leftau would be if you cannot tell the whole story, why not just be honest and say nothing.
-- Posted by Have_Wheels_Will_Travel on Tue, Jul 23, 2024, at 9:04 PM
It was Trump unwillingness to accept the facts. It didn't turn out "just fine."
Doesn't alter the fact that we're better off today than 4 years ago.
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Tue, Jul 23, 2024, at 9:28 PM
8:44 PM
Lettau, you are sooooooo full of BS and Misinformation!
The USA High Inflation started in February 2021 due to Biden's war on the American Energy Industries. I live in America and not overseas and couldn't care less about their economies!
The High Interest Rates are due to the FED increasing the Prime Rates on money borrowed in order to try to bring down Biden's High Inflation!
Who do you think pays for that ammunition and other military equipment....here's a secret - those companies charge the USA government then the Taxpayers are footing the Ukraine war!
The current student loan forgiveness programs have been declared unconstitutional by the SCOTUS....were you sleeping through it all!
The USA Southern Border is wide open no thanks to the Border Czar VP Harris....that's how come there are over 7.5 million New Dependent Biden Illegals since 1/21/21. Where is the money coming from to care for these Illegals - from once again the USA Taxpayers!
Your crime statistics link must had been left out....is that the same FBI that that kept the laptop from hell from the public during the 2020 election which has been proven legit since then but hey the FBI knew that all along!
Apparently you haven heard any of Trump's speech since you had your head up Biden's Behind! Guess now up Harris's behind!
What most Americans demand is for the best qualified person to be appointed to fill federal positions and not due to anyother reasons such as gender or race of any sort!
Most Normal Americans know that they were better off under Trump than under Biden/Harris Economic and Foreign Policies!
Lettau don't forget the Afghanistan Withdrawal Disaster under Biden/Harris plus the more deaths from Covid in 2021 under Biden/Harris than during 2020 under Trump plus No New Wars during Trump's term vs Biden/Harris Ukraine war and the Hamas/Israel war!
Yep, that Biden/Harris term has been one cluster F after another.
Any more questions Lettau will be addressed tomorrow!

That is not a fact Leftau! That is BS at best.
Those who followed practical advice and spent a lifetime of work and saving for our retirement now find it takes more to live. And if we accumulated any property we find we cannot sell it without paying an inflated tax on an inflated value so the government can use it to pay those who did not prepare for their future or forgive education debts they acquired getting degrees in crap that won't pay their way.
When we were young with a couple of kids we lived on about $18 to $20 worth of groceries a week. Now that we are retired and living off what we saved the two of us live on About $180 to $200 worth of groceries per week.
Sure we're better off, we have more money to pay taxes on, right?
Summer work when in high school would pay you about $5 per day and you couldn't get $5 worth of gas in the $100 little Ford Coupe you bought from Uncle George on credit.
Yeah we're better off today driving a car you cannot buy for $10,000! Or if you want something nice about 10 times that.

Point is that I've paid attention to him since the debate disaster, and it's clear to me that his recognition of his performance is what drove him to decide, on his own, to "pass the torch."

During President Jimmy Carter’s term in office from 1977 to 1981, the average year-over-year inflation rate was 9.9%. This was the highest inflation rate among U.S. presidents so far. The inflation surge during Carter’s presidency was influenced by several factors, including stagflation (a combination of high inflation and high unemployment), an energy crisis that led to soaring gas prices and shortages, and prolonged expectations of inflation, which prompted producers to raise prices even further. It’s interesting to note how economic circumstances and presidential actions can impact inflation rates over time.

My apologies . We disagree on Biden , IMO he has failed across the board and he did not want to quit as he stated over and over that he was the only person who could beat Trump -- he did before . The Party took him out or kicked him out due to polls , the media , and most of all the money machine drying up after the debate . Things must be dire , very , very , dire to put Harris as a replacement , that's a hell of a roll of the dice . Nobody else from the Party has even been given a chance , she's running on face time and popularity , how's that different then Trump ? Where is democracy .
The White House has went Hollywood , it's Populist vs. Populist now and not Leader vs. Leader . There is no step forward or gain for the American People .
Biden's talk last night , he said , "I'm here but I'm not . Watch Harris , she's important now but I'm calling the shots until January." So what the hell , is she the Deputy President now . Is he not but a shadow .
These are dangerous times . NORAD scrambled USA Air Force jets to Alaska to intercept Russian and Chinese bombers yesterday . The day before USA Air Force jets were intercepted by Russian jets off Russia's coast near Alaska . This did not make headline news but did happen ..the Populists Harris vs. Trump are all over the front page , the Democrats have learned Trump's Populist lesson well ..Biden is a boring old man when in fact he is a lost man living in his own lost world

Carter...it should be noted Reagan restored order and brought America back as the World leader . He brought down the USSR Empire without firing one shot . The most important fact that should be imphasized is Trump is no Reagan , not even in the same World .
Ronald Reagan was America's last true Leader .

I voted for Carter but little did I know I was complicit in his failures.
55 MPH,long gas lines,no Christmas lights,inability to get hostages released.
The same complicity that 81 million votes(not voters)were for Biden and looks like until the truth really gets out about his designated successor there may still be complicit sheep out there. Even then they will tout her as a competent replacement.
Jan 6 was not a proud moment but what the Democrats have to “save democracy” is on par.

War Notes
On Sunday she became the nominee…today is day five.
🔸Harris hasn’t spoken to America or swing voters
🔸She hasn’t told us what she thinks about Russia and China
🔸Or when she knew Biden couldn’t run anymore and what she did about it
🔸She’s done zero interviews
🔸She spoke at a Black sorority gathering
🔸She held a rally in Milwaukee
🔸She attended a teachers union gathering in Houston
she’s running from the basement but not in a basement…
Forget whether it’s true or not, the DEI attack is bad politics...and from President Biden's farewell speech the other night , "Vote for Harris or you don’t like democracy." It’s good politics for your base, but it annoys the middle, even those likely to support you.

“Team Harris has raised $200 million since President Biden’s endorsement last Sunday – a record-shattering haul,” said a campaign letter released Sunday morning. “Of that amount, 66% came from first-time donors, further proof of the tremendous grassroots support for the Vice President,” the statement continued.

Calls for unity after Trump shooting quickly dissipate Following the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Trump, President Biden gave primetime remarks urging Americans to lower the temperature on political rhetoric.But after Biden ended his candidacy and Vice President Harris became Trump’s likely opponent, the discourse has returned to typically heated levels.
Trump has torn into Harris as a “lunatic,” “dumb as a rock,” and “crazy” while some Republicans suggested her race and gender have played a role in her rise to the top of the party. Asked Thursday if the country could survive a Harris presidency, Trump claimed it could not.
Democrats have also gone on offense, seeking to get under Trump’s skin by calling him weak, highlighting his litany of legal problems and warning of the dangers of a possible second Trump administration.

Rick, I remember elections going back to Truman and Dewey. Yes I was pretty young. But when the election was over Truman was given a chance to perform and overall did a decent job.

🔸Like Biden’s age issue, Vance’s problem isn’t the cringeworthy tape archive, his stiffness on the stump or his lack of charisma, it’s that he can’t do anything about it.
Fair question: If Harris gets to reinvent herself (aka,. she was never the border czar), why can’t Vance?
🔸Trump is famous for firing people and never good at hiring really good people!
🐘 🐘 🐘
The Reinvention of Kamala Harris
🔹Kamala Harris wasn’t the border czar
🔹Harris never raised bail money for rioters in 2020. She did.
🔹Harris was NOT the most liberal senator in 2019. She was, but the website GovTrack took down their rating
🔹The dystopian world the media now presents of Harris is not much different than a few months ago when Joe Biden had the physical health of a 55-year-old and the mental acuity of a nuclear physicist.Even USAToday pointed out the gaslighting of claims about Harris.
I wonder what they will say about this clip of her saying, “We must object when they use the term radical Islamic terror or illegal alien.”

For this country is moving and it must not stop. It cannot stop. For this is a time for courage and a time for challenge. Neither conformity nor complacency will do. Neither the fanatics nor the faint-hearted are needed. And our duty as a party is not to our party alone, but to the Nation, and, indeed., to all mankind. Our duty is not merely the preservation of political power but the preservation of peace and freedom.
So let us not be petty when our cause is so great. Let us not quarrel amongst ourselves when our Nation's future is at stake. Let us stand together with renewed confidence in our cause--united in our heritage of the past and our hopes for the future.

War Notes
🔸Can Harris forever run from the basement — no off-script events, no interviews, etc.? That hasn’t happened. When the obvious hasn’t happened, there is a reason, and we don’t know what it is.
🔸If Republicans can regain the high ground before Labor Day. What’s their plan ? Like trying to win a girl back over summer — it’s hard ! In times past, JD Vance and his wife would go on “Good Morning America” to triple down on cat ladies ruining America — think Bill and Hillary Clinton during the New Hampshire primary in 1992.
🔸In politics, like journalism, one must be afraid the buzz they are hearing is a chainsaw.The media always wants to talk about issues, yet when given two candidates with very different worldviews … they want to talk about cat ladies.
🔸Rewriting a third of the Constitution would be HUGE news if it had any possibility of becoming law — it’s similar to the much-lampooned Project 2025 . Except Biden and Harris actually endorse this change, yet it’s getting a fraction of the meaningful coverage.
🔸Biden’s plan follows a new model of “we must destroy democracy to save it”
🔸Talk about irrelevant: One week since stepping aside, he’s giving speeches at the LBJ Presidential Library and writing op-eds in the Washington Post.

An 18 year term makes all the sense in the world. Back when the lifetime appointments originated, the life expectancy was about 40 years, now it's almost twice that. Also the most unethical Senator in recent history, changed the confirmation vote from 60 to 51.

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign lashed out against the group behind the conservative plan Project 2025, issuing an ominous warning to anyone attempting to link him to the controversial document. Trump’s campaign released the statement minutes after Paul Dans, the director of the 2025 Presidential Transition Project at conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, announced he would be stepping down from the group in August.
“President Trump’s campaign has been very clear for over a year that Project 2025 had nothing to do with the campaign, did not speak for the campaign, and should not be associated with the campaign or the President in any way,” the Trump campaign said in a statement. “Reports of Project 2025’s demise would be greatly welcomed and should serve as notice to anyone or any group trying to misrepresent their influence with President Trump and his campaign— it will not end well for you.”

Meanwhile, Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces, a coalition of Iranian-backed militias, said that a strike Tuesday night on a base southwest of Baghdad killed four members of the Kataib Hezbollah militia.
The group accused the United States of being behind the strike. Kataib Hezbollah, along with some of the other militias, has in recent months carried out attacks against bases housing U.S. troops in Iraq and Syria in retaliation for Washington’s support for Israel in the war in Gaza.

War Notes
🔸War is breaking out in the Middle East and the U.S.A. president is completely MIA
🔸A Republican vice presidential nominee in freefall with no plan while people are making jokes about him having sex with a couch
🔸The Trump campaign is trying to find a message (and a nickname) for Kamala Harris
🔸A Democratic candidate turned first living saint in nine days who has changed virtually all her positions — on the border, guns, health care, child care — you name it. She’s now a centrist.
🔸A Democratic nominee who refuses to talk to the press — and the press is not only OK with that, they are attacking her rival for … talking to the press.
🐘🐘🐘
Think of everything that’s changed in past 10 days :
🔸Harris’ prompter reading skills
🔸The campaign’s entire message
🔸The rally chants: “We’re Not Going Back” and “Lock Him Up”
🔸The candidate’s stump speech, even her stump speech last night vs. 10 days ago
🔸It’s pretty astounding. Am I the only one who thinks the planning for this started more than 10 days ago?
For journalists allegedly worried about transparency, shouldn’t the anger be at a presidential candidate who after nine days as the nominee apparent still hasn’t faced a single meaningful question? She doesn’t need to bother taking questions (even from Black journalists) because any tough question will be deemed racist.
🐘🐘🐘
🔸Is the White House putting out pictures of Joe Biden on the phone with world leaders? No
🔸Is the president coming to the briefing room to tell the American people what he’s doing to prevent a war? No

I state Biden is as usless as teats on a boar hog and he reads it as an endorsement for Trump. But with a brain the size of a pea and a mouth the size of a washtub he states my feelings which have not been expressed by me...
My total disdain for one man does not mean total endorsement for another.

History shows Putin arrests American citizens for minow Law violations and then prisoner swaps them for high criminals . This has been an on going agenda , the Biden Aministration has done it for a large amount of prisoners with a large amount of allies . Criminals and citizens were released around the World . The People and timing of it all is suspect. Biden has blood on his hands for the People these criminals will kill next .
In the meantime the Planners of 9/11 are just now being taken to Court for their crimes 23 years later . And they get a plea deal to serve life in prison instead of the death penalty too . These People should have been shot in the face 23 years ago .

US recognizes opposition candidate González as the winner of Venezuela’s presidential election
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — The stakes grew higher for Venezuela’s electoral authority to show proof backing its decision to declare President Nicolás Maduro the winner of the country’s presidential election after the United States on Thursday recognized opposition candidate Edmundo González as the victor, discrediting the official results of the vote.

"Assume" to your hearts content. It doesn't make you any closer to being right. The exchange was not "horrible." It was practical arrangement to get Americans and allies out of Putin's gulag. President Biden was able to make it work because of his good relationships with NATO leaders.

It was only one more of your unsupported opinions, but has little to do with your "endorsement of Trump."
It was your passing on the videos that you're seemingly so enamored with, that demonstrates you admiration of Trump.

Trump lies so he accuses others of lying.

Leftau, more of your imagination working overtime. You have been trying for quite some time to turn what I say into what you want to make of it and it still does not wash.
You have beewn trying, since you tried to make me say what you want to hear regarding the 2020 election and subsequent January of 2021 Demonstrations, without my cooperation.
When are you going to learn that you are not smart enough to put words in my mouth that I did not say and make them stick?
I have made no endorsements of anyone. I have stated what I thought of Dead Man Walking but that was no endorsement of anyone.
When and if I make a positive statement about anyone it will be my statement not some misconstrued and twisted atatement of some dumbass who only thinks he is smart enough to put words into the mouths of others.

Underwhelming jobs report: Is a recession looming?
Stocks took a nosedive Friday after a weak jobs report triggered a reliable recession indicator known as the Sahm Rule, raising fears the economy is headed for a downturn.
Friday’s report from the Labor Department showed hiring fell sharply in July, with employers adding just 114,000 jobs — 35% fewer than expected. The unemployment rate ticked up for the fourth consecutive month and now stands at 4.3%, the highest since October 2021.
The latest unemployment reading set off the so-called Sahm Rule, which says that a recession is almost always underway when the three-month average unemployment rate rises half a percentage point from its low point over the past year.
“Things are deteriorating quickly,” Julia Pollak, chief economist at the job marketplace ZipRecruiter, told the Associated Press.

Hunter Biden is set to be sentenced on felony firearms charges in November under an order signed by a judge on Friday.
The president’s son could face up to 25 years in prison at sentencing set for Nov. 13 in Wilmington, Delaware, but as a first-time offender he is likely to get far less time or avoid prison entirely.
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika, who was nominated to the bench by former Republican President Donald Trump, will decide how much time, if any, Hunter Biden serves behind bars at the sentencing scheduled to fall shortly after Election Day.

Hunter Biden is also pushing for dismissal of both the tax and gun cases against him, citing a ruling in Florida that threw out a separate prosecution of Trump after his attorneys argued the Justice Department special counsel in the case was improperly appointed.

Pentagon rescinds plea deal for accused plotters of 9/11 attacks
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin revoked a plea deal Friday that would have taken the death penalty off the table for three prisoners accused of helping to plot the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Austin said in a news release that he believes that given the significance of the case, responsibility on what happens to the prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay “should rest with me as the superior authority under the Military Commissions Act of 2009.”
On Friday, Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.), chair of the House Armed Services Committee, sent a letter to Austin demanding answers about the plea deal. He said he was “deeply shocked” by the agreement and said it was a “gut punch” to the families of victims.

Harris secures enough votes to be Democratic nominee for president
The vice president secured the necessary required number of votes for the nomination less than two weeks since declaring her intent to run for the top of the 2024 ticket after President Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her. Within days, she secured support from enough delegates to clinch the nomination.
The Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) virtual roll call vote started at 9 a.m. Thursday, and Harris ran for the nomination unopposed. DNC Chair Jamie Harrison announced Friday that Harris secured the nomination, which required receiving 2,350 votes.

Trump had a campaign dinner in the Hamptons last night , it was $500K per person and $50K for a photo op. Most of the media lives in New York and spends summers in the Hamptons talking to each other.

Not weird at all to have that DEI Vp invite a cross dresser guest or do some twerking with one. Not weird at all to have a cross dressing,luggage stealing loon on WH staff.

Judge denies Trump motion to dismiss DC case over selective prosecution
“At this stage, the court cannot accept Defendant’s alternate narrative,” Chutkan wrote.
The case was put back in Chutkan’s hands just Friday, after a federal appeals court remanded the matter to the trial court shortly after the case was returned from the Supreme Court following its 6-3 decision last month granting former presidents at least presumptive immunity for official acts.
Trump also pointed the finger at President Biden, his chief political opponent at the time, and claimed that the charges against him were the result of the president’s pledge to ensure Trump would not be president again.
In her decision Saturday, Chutkan squarely rebuffed those assertions, writing that there is “no indication” Biden sought to pressure the Justice Department or Attorney General Merrick Garland to take “politically motivated action” against Trump.
“Defendant has presented no evidence demonstrating a likelihood of vindictiveness,” she wrote.

Neither do I disparage politicians that can accept or relate to groups that are other than white, straight Christians.

You are quite simple minded Leftau, there is a lot more to it than that.
First there were slaves for the Southern Plantation Owners to purchase and use. Those slaves were rounded up and brought here on ships by the Northern Slave Traders.
Also you forget the Mason-Dison Line and the apportionment of the states as Slave and Free based on an even number so that Control of the Senate was not held by the North or the South. Remember hearing something about the Missouri Compromise. And then there was this, Missouri came into the Union as a Slave State and only then could I believe it was Maine come into the Union as a Free State and that happened I believe in 1851. Missouri had Slaves and Bollinger County had Slaves. Southwest Corner there was a small Plantation with Slaves. Something else you may not know. Bollinger County at one time had a rule where a black man could not spend the night in the County and that was after the war. Not sure exactly how that went away. Those are just a few of the issues between black and white. Was slavery wrong, of course it was, but as unfair as it was it existed back into Biblical Times, And Color was not always the issue.
Just a few points Leftau, and remember it was Lincoln a Republican who gets credit for freeing the slaves.
I have spent a considerable amount of time in a couple of Southern States for the winter, some of the time I did researching history. Something else you might not know. In some of those states a Slave was held in higher esteem than an Irishman. If there was a dangerous job, they would in some cases put an Irishman on the job because a Slave was held in higher esteem. Because of the dollar, more than likely. Slaves cost money and the Irish were free.
Do you believe we will ever form a perfect world, or is there always going to be inequity of the classes.
I am a Realist, while I think we must try for equality, there will always be inequality due to greed which is in the human nature and will always be with us.
So to respond to your screwed up thinking, there was a lot more to the Black-White issue than the Civil War and the North-South issue prior to the war. The North held an equal responsibility for the unfairness visited upon the Black Race for many years prior to Lincoln.
Then there are cases when fairness exists and people do the correct thing. I read this in a story telling book which recorded many otherwise forgotten issues. The book was written by a Mr. Corbin, maybe his name was Claude, not sure. But his story goes like this as I remember reading it.
Southwest Cornerof Bollinger or Northwest Corner of Stoddard County, there was a Black Farmer who sold some stock to market. Knowing he had to have some money several White Boys robbed him. Their parents learned of it and made those boys go apologize to the Black Farmer and return his money. Not sure of the time in history, but goes to show that times do change and people along with it.
So don't try oversimplifying Leftau, people are more complicted you might thing. Times and People change.
Those are jut a few points, books are written on the subject.

From Mr. VanGennip???
That's a joke right. Seems he had no idea what the issue was.
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Sun, Aug 4, 2024, at 3:06 PM
Leftau your lack of education on the issue is appalling. I only hit a few high points. The Civil War was only the culmination of the situation. There was much more leading up to it.
And then the aftermath and putting America back together after the war.
My family had direct consequences as a result of the war. My Great Grandfather on my Father's side lost his younger brother who was taken to the swamp area along with 6 men from the community tied to trees and shot by Bushwackers in one incident.
On my Mother's side a 3 Times Great Grandfather living near Fredericktown was shot and killed by Renegades who were on a mission of trouble. They rode up, and told him to get his horse and go with them. He refused and they shot him. This was prior to the war in about 1860 as close as I can determine. I have visited his Gravesite in a wooded area on the farm. His entire family moved to Cape Girardeau for the duration of the war.
So Leftau if there is anything else you need to know just ask. If I don't know I can possibly look it up for you. I have a decent amount of books in my bookcase relating to it. They are kind of spread across the spectrum from Jesse James the last rebel of the Civil War and The South was Right to the Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government to Bollinger County 1851 - 1976 to the History of the Archdiocese which was involved in it here in the St. Louis area. Also have about 18 to 20 inches of space taken up by local Bollinger County Informational history paperbacks given to me by a now deceased relative.
So yeah Leftau if you have a need to know I will try to help. I have spent a lifetime of trying to self educate myself after I left the classroom. If I have a question I try to find the answer. Answers are everywhere, you just have to look. Nobody will ever know everything out there. Some just think they do!

Leftau, where did you go, we were only getting to the point where the North was instrumental in the continuation of slavery up to the commencement of hostilities. They sold slaves to the South and they condoned it in the way they distributed the way they allowed the states to come into the union as free states and slave states, in case that isn't understandable to you Leftau, the North condoned the practice of slavery in those states designated as Slave States.

No excuses Leftau, and not blaming it on anyone in particular, just giving you facts that you seem to want to deny.
Here is something for you to stick in your pipe and smoke it Leftau.....
Are you aware of this?
Many of the major Founding Fathers owned numerous slaves, such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. Others owned only a few slaves, such as Benjamin Franklin. And still others married into large slave-owning families, such as Alexander Hamilton.
It appears slavery may have started in the North doesn't it?
You see Water Boy, when you don't know what you are talking about you would be better served to keep your mouth closed.

If by that “neither of you” is referring to me then at least I’m honest about my distain even hate for politicians whereas you lie about your Trump hate. Voting for the same people that advocate for the things you said you don’t condone shows just what liar you are and evidently have no ability to change.
I think that’s civil as it’s just telling the truth even when it hurts.
-- Posted by DA Braswell on Sun, Aug 4, 2024, at 8:13 PM
Let me educate you a little further Leftau.
There is tons of knowledge out there to explore and there is many, many things that I am not aware of both North and South that took place pro and con regarding slavery. But it was not a new institution formed in this country.
My family were not slaves and they never owned slaves. Would they if they could have? I don't have that answer, but one thing that would have prevented it was the fact they were too poor to own slaves. They raised their own, they called them sons and daughters.
But I live in the real world and I know from what I read that a lot of people had their hands in the slavery issue. And there are many things I do not know about it.
And do you think the issue is totally mute. I had a very good friend, now deceased who was a black man. As much of his story as I know and I did not dig deeper was that he was raised in Mississippi and there were something like 17 people in his family. Somthing happened, he would not say what and I never asked. But his parents loaded all family members into three automobiles and they left in the middle of the night headed for St. Louis. And they made it. His color never bothered me. And when he knew he had a terminal illness he came by my office and we went to lunch. I had not seen him for awhile and he looked bad but I have that final picture taken in my office. And the last time I saw him was at the funereal home in North St. Louis on a Sunday afternoon with my wife, as we were there when his Mother passed away as well.
The civil war and the slavery issue has been a pet project of mine off and on as time permits for some time.
So don't pass that sanctimonious BS off on to me that the North had no hand in the issue of slavery.

Mr. Braswell,
If you follow through with your "...disdain, even hate for politicians..." it would mean you don't vote. That's clearly your privilege and can be your reality.
For others, reality means recognizing the fact that political choice in our country is binary. Criticizing me for "...voting for the same people that advocate..." things I don't condone, is also your privilege, however it has nothing to do with lying, it has everything to do that binary choice.
Democrats supporting some people considered "weird" is not detrimental to our national existence. Not voting favors Trump and is.
And as I've said all along, telling the truth about Trump is not hatred.
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Sun, Aug 4, 2024, at 9:58 PM
Methinks the Civil War started over Individual State's Rights and the slavery thing was thrown in after the fact , that Proclamation deal but Lincoln left the Sioux People out of it which was the best thing of the whole deal. Lincoln with his Homestead Act did f____ us real good after the Civil War was over , too bad he didn't live to see it happen, the POS.

Leftau this may come as a surprise to someone who had the comfort of knowing there would always be a paycheck there from the Federal Government.
I however did not have those assurances. At the time I decided to try my hand at operating my own business,I looked at all sides of what might be possible and what might not, what were my risks and what could be the rewards. And it did not stop there. It was an ongoing process. Preseason buying was a risk rewards venture.
The rewards would be Bigger Discounts and Extended Terms. The risk, weather conditions and despite predictions a cool summer and lower sales. Wake up some day Leftau and realize your Accts Payables exceeded seven figures on 30-60-90 day terms.
Hiring a new employee was a risk rewards venture. They come with responsibility.
It was an ongoing experience of examining all sides of issues. This was ongoing from 1963 until 2000 and I turned it over to kids, retired and and got out of the way.
You don't break those habits Leftau. It has become a way of life.
Politics are no different. Tomorrow I will be doing the same thing at the polls.
November not so much so, depending on how tomorrow goes.
You can take that for what it is worth. If or not you believe it, I could care less.

Braswell version...
"The Biden administration has “accidentally” sent millions more to support the Taliban."
Actual statement includes...
“Because DRL and INL could not demonstrate their compliance with State’s partner vetting requirements, there is an increased risk that terrorist and terrorist affiliated individuals and entities may have illegally benefited from State spending in Afghanistan...”

Saw the video about its carving and had a loud laugh when Borglum(sp)climbs all the way up carrying equipment when the air compressor stopped. Thought it was only me that happened to. Then went to the Crazy Horse carving. Amazing. If any contemporary should be put on any rock it should be ol Joey right under the tail of Crazy Horse’s tail.

Walz is Harris new step-brother or basic yes man , he will say or do whatever Harris tells him to do . That's why he was her pick , there are other and better People she could have picked. It's no different then Trump and Vance. One is as far Left as the other is as far Right.
Harris still avoids the media like the bubonic plague, sooner or later she's going to have to meet the media and the People of America instead of just a wild eyed crowd of People who follow her around.
Now that she's picked a VP and after their Concert Tour is over and the DNC Convention comes and goes in Chicago from August 19-22 , she's going to come back down to Earth again and face hard question because the lights are going to dim -- will her dim light shine?
Trump is getting raked over the coals and she's standing in a field of daisy's . After Labor Day those flowers begin to wilt . Who can handle the heat?

The morning Harris names Walz as her running mate , they come walking out from behind a curtain together walking down the stage to a cheering crowd holding signs that read HARRIS/WALZ . Hundreds of those cheering People in that crowd were waving those HARRIS/WALZ signs.
Now my mixfusion is , how did those hundreds of cheering People in that crowd who were holding signs that read HARRIS/WALZ know Walz was her pick if Harris VP pick was a big secret , how did they already know and who made all of those signs ?

Mr. Braswell’s claim doesn’t hold water…
Minneapolis Star-Tribune editorial writer Jill Burcum did some digging into this claim and found out that it simply doesn't hold water.
"So I did this thing called journalism (Megyn should give it try) where I did interviews, research," she wrote in response to Kelly on Twitter. "Turns out MN's new law does NOT mandate menstrual products in boys' bathrooms."
She then linked to an editorial at the Star-Tribune that explained exactly what the law in question does.
"The law’s actual language provides considerable flexibility for school districts to implement it, according to Deb Henton, the executive director of the Minnesota Association of School Administrators," the editorial notes. "That might mean making these products available for free in various locations for all who need them, such as unisex bathrooms, girls’ bathrooms, the school nurse or the front office, but not necessarily in boys’ bathrooms. Henton, in an interview, lauded the 'local control' the law provides for implementation, and said she’s fielded no concerns about its rollout."

War Notes
🔸In addition to having no foreign policy experience, we have no idea about Harris’ foreign policy.
🔸Kamala Harris: Mystery Commander in Chief. How would the Vice President keep America safe in a dangerous world? The voters deserve some answers. So far, she appears to view foreign policy through the lens of her domestic political predicament.
🔸Of course, we also don’t know about her domestic policy.Fracking, single-payer healthcare and the Green New Deal were all things she supported, but publicly disavowing them would cost her the progressive left.
Stump speeches are by definition a little long on hyperbole and short on details (for example: “Build a wall and Mexico will pay for it”) BUT as Harris leans into “freedom” on the stump, we find some curious lines.
🔸For example, “We want to recognize the right all people have to freedom and liberty, to make choices, especially those that are about heart and home and not have their government telling them what to do,” as she told the United Auto Workers in Wayne, Michigan.
🔸Really? The Biden administration censored truthful speech online, kicked people out of the military for not taking an experimental vaccine and Harris’ running mate, as governor, created a COVID-19 snitch line.
🔸Houdini escape: Harris should win an award for her incredible divorce from the Biden-Harris legacy.
Bloomberg makes the point that Harris faces uphill economic realities.
🔸“Kamala Harris knows what it’s like to be middle class. It’s why she’s determined to lower health care costs and make housing more affordable.”
Fair question: If she ever takes questions, it should be, “As VP you praised the Biden policies for the middle class — costs of housing and health care have exploded under your administration. What did you all do wrong and how are you going to do differently than he did the past three years?”
-- Posted by Scaggs on Fri, Aug 9, 2024, at 8:10 PM
"🔸For example, “We want to recognize the right all people have to freedom and liberty, to make choices, especially those that are about heart and home and not have their government telling them what to do,” as she told the United Auto Workers in Wayne, Michigan."
Not having the government tell me what to do would be nice. Does this mean I don't have to file a Tax Return come April 15 of 2025, should Kammy win the Presidencey? Does that mean I can file for a refund of all of the taxes I have paid since 1956 should Tammy win? Because the government has been telling me what to do for quite a spell now.

If he can stay awake , find his way on and off the stage , and not fumble muck while he's saying what a great gal she isn't suppose to be until now after she's kicked him out -- she's outstanding !
Having the lost man living in his own lost world campaigning in support to show how great of a candidate she is and will make such a great President shows the height of her ignorance. Will she fly around in Air Force 2 and Biden in Air Force One , they can't fly together in the same thing for National Security .

The guy who doesn't want to be President again and is just playing the part until January . Who is letting him out of the cage to make future Foreign Policy decisions . Harris wasn't there , will she be clueless as to what's going on? My bad , she is clueless being there or not (does Biden?)..."I was middle class growing up so I know what middle class means" , "Forward", "Freedom", and"Joy" might mean squat to the Quad leaders about Beijing taking over the Indo-Pacific ...if , and a big if , Harris wins
🐘 🐘 🐘
Biden tells Quad leaders that Beijing is testing region at turbulent moment for Chinese economy.
President Joe Biden told Indo-Pacific allies on Saturday that he believes China’s increasing military assertiveness is an effort to test the region at a turbulent moment for Beijing.
Biden’s comments were caught by a hot mic after he and fellow leaders of the so-called Quad delivered opening remarks before the press at a summit he’s hosting near his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware. He said his administration sees Beijing’s actions as a “change in tactic, not a change in strategy.”
Starting with a trade war that dates back to 2018, China and the United States have grown at odds over a range of issues, from global security, such as China’s claims over the South China Sea, to industrial policy on electric vehicle and solar panel manufacturing.
China also has longtime territorial disputes involving other claimants including Vietnam, Taiwan, Malaysia and Brunei. U.S. officials worry about China’s long-stated goals of unifying Taiwan with China’s mainland and the possibility of war over Taiwan. The self-ruled island democracy is claimed by Beijing as part of its territory. When Biden began his presidency he looked to elevate the Quad, which until then had only met at the foreign minister level, to a leader-level partnership as he tried to pivot U.S. foreign policy away from conflicts in the Middle East and toward threats and opportunities in the Indo-Pacific.
“It will survive way beyond November,” Biden told the leaders...if , and a big if , Harris wins , China prevails..
-- Posted by Diseased·Turtle on Sun, Sep 22, 2024, at 12:53 AM
Rick S.,
I did not find the following comment in your link…
…if, and a big if, Harris wins, China prevails.”
I’m sure China would like to think so, but it’s not the case, and there’s zero basis for that claim. Harris has every capability, competency, experience and intelligence to continue a successful US policy toward China in cooperation with the Quad.
At the same time you must have missed this comment about President Biden…
“The Australian leader remarked that the visit had given him “insight into what in my view makes you such an extraordinary world leader.”
-- Posted by Rick Lettau on Sun, Sep 22, 2024, at 8:03 AM
Few more comments…
It was not a situation where he “… doesn't want to be President again…” it’s that he recognized his physical limitations with respect to serving a full 4 year term.
He’s the current President, not “paying the part.”
Also, Vice-President Harris has the capacity to serve as VP while running as a candidate at the same time. Not “clueless” in any way.

Rick L
I really don't have confidence in any Biden decision making at this point , he made the call to step off {I'm still believing the Party yanked him because he was dragging down the entire Party with his continual mental stuggles and the Democrat money machine was drying up across the board but that's just IMO} but now he's stepped back up on a Foreign Policy issue regarding an Ally Bloc against China...why is this Ally Bloc taking Biden serious ? Why wasn't this Sit Down officially at the White House . Something stinks in Smallville.
I have seen nothing that qualifies Harris as a Leader and I've watched several of her rallies. She is where she is due to Biden's announcement in 2020 , obviously her qualifications aren't the reason , and she has been a no player until Biden stepped off. Now she's suddenly the Super Star candidate who will move the Great Lands into the future . By coronation , not votes , that Democracy thing..
She has no Foreign Policy , or has not said so during any of her rallies that I've seen . What is her policy toward Russia , China , the Middle East , Iran , Central and South America? A lack of Press conferences or a one on one interview with a major network allows her to not have to say either. Her staff won't allow her to give interviews. Although the press and media consistently ask why , her staff knows giving no interviews and any criticisms about her doing none is better then letting Harris do interviews -- she's clueless. Her interview with Oprah was a disaster, Oprah even told her to stop with the word salad answers to the audience questions.
It's not a laughing matter and that's what she does . Waves , laughs , and tells her life story at every rally I've watched. And some Americans love her , she's the future! This won't work at the UN meetings or the G8 Summits . The Leader of the Free World should at least resemble a Leader ...if , and that's a big if , she wins...

Another killing on Biden's hands. And now people like Leftau because whizz and moan because Trump threatens to use the army to round them up and send em packing.
The Democrats biggest objection is that it will mess up their plans to create a few million obligated potential voters.
