God, the AP is just as bad as CNN

I am some what hesitant to give the link because I don't want to give them clicks.

Did the reporter bother to question any of their interviewees ascertations? Like, how the fuck do you see south Minneapolis from Hudson, WI? I seriously question whether they could see any smoke from Hudson, WI, let alone any fires.

Why do we dance around the obvious

This MAGAT that attacked Nancy Pelosi's husband meant to bash in the skull of Speaker Pelosi.

This was assassination attempt on the Speaker of the House and #2 in line to the Presidency.

I think they just have that much money and resources.

There is some wisdom there....

Whenever TFG wanted to knock a story out of the MSM that he thought was hurting him, he would say or do something else to generate a new controversy that wouldn't hurt him with the base.

Inflation in Hungary, the country the GOP wants to emulate, tops 20%

Inflation sucks, but Biden and the Congressional Democrats are doing a better job than pretty much anyone else in the world.

Of course, the media doesn't mention that.

The difference between MAGA Republicans and the rest of us.....

When a heckler interrupts Biden, Biden defends the right. When a heckler interrupts Trump, Trump tells his people beat the shit out of them.

November 2022 Election ads

Should we have ads that talk about the dangers of Rightwing Republican extremism, and use Buffalo NY and Highland Park IL as examples?

These words speak to me today like they spoke to many 159 years ago.

In remembrance of those (wearing blue) who fought and died 159 years ago Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

—Abraham Lincoln
