Yes, now tell me your policy on the forced sterilization of Chicago White Sox fans.

TV News anchor's agent: "Once we conquer the lucrative Alpena market, we can concentrate on getting you on at a station in New York or LA"

He won't hesitate to bring up Jared's $2B from Saudi. That will bother Trump so much. Trump will be agitated because he's not the one who got that money. Trump will say something like: "at least I got $4B from Kim Jong Un!"

and ftr, he's a jackass i would never vote for. But, even though he's a jerk. I still want to see him land haymakers on Trump.

Chris Christie is getting 9 percent in NH polling. Why this is important. It gets him in the debates on the big stage. So long as he is able to navigate the loyalty pledge with some sort of mumbled nonsensical lie about supporting the nominee even if he is convicted of Espionage. why does it matter that he is on the debate stage? He's the retribution of the system GOP who are repulsed by Trump.

Oh, well...that's all I would hope for. The cult is dead to reason. The last 3 elections were won by appealing to normies to apply reason to their World. Not everyone is in a rapturous red-white n' blue, national suicide spiral with Trump.

Good ads do have an impact. Trump made several strategic mistakes because of ads.

2012 was all about that trade to get Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante. Big turn around in fortunes.

Or prison...

so, the loyalty pledge if the nominee is convicted of felonies. if the Dems can't make an ad off that which moves the needle decisively then Humanity is doomed. [edit: irony alert...the sentence was "humanity is in trouble" but the AI grammer helper on this website finished it for me to say "is doomed"]

Looks promising.

I'm seeing a lot of the last case of conditioning entire classes of people of modest means playing out. They all have big trucks and Virginia's Gadsen flag "don't tread on me" license plates.

You and I are probably not too far distant in outlook on these things. I grant you that the oligarchy does want us to control the oil stocks of the middle east or the sugar production of Cuba. And the military does have to very roughly grind civilians into potential killers. Still, so long as a person like Donald Trump isn't pardoning war criminals we do try to manage our affairs with a semblance of order and rules.

also, I spent 2 years NOT on offense in Germany defending the democracies during the 80s. Say it wasn't worth it all you like. Its not like Vladdie wouldn't have taken whatever inch was given him if we were not there in collective security.

Yes, we did. It took the spirit of the bayonet to defeat Hirohito's armed forces.

The deceased defenders of Wake Island would like a word.

This might be wishful thinking -- but students of political psychology can clearly see that a spider if forming a web -- so the end result might not be that Vladdie is removed but it might be that a lot of blood is shed before he leaves the stage. .

different report about the President of Egypt being there. Also, seeing that the Ugandan foreign ministry is there.

A bit more detail https://eaworldview.com/2023/06/ukraine-war-african-leaders-kyiv-russia-attacks/ South Africa - being a member of the Commonwealth has a foot in a couple worlds. They warned Putin not to go to South Africa because of the ICC indictment. They are cold to the West's various obsessions with terrorism as the ANC were called terrorists back in their own revolutionary phase. None of these countries appears to have heavy Wagner presence unless I'm missing something.

Considering the Russian and Chinese full-court press in Africa....this very generic description of "African leaders" visiting Bucha is very interesting and requires further digging. My hope would be that some of the non-aligned World see what is happening as a major problem in international law/relations. Not that there isn't terrible stuff going on at wholesale in Africa.

This story has a happy middle https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/fox-news-parts-ways-producer-015908794.html

pathetic

fwiw.

Some reports of an amphibious landing near the dam that was destroyed. Lots of twitter reports of sounds of gunfire and shelling.
