I have a conspiracy theory on this since the WH called a press lid today at 3pm today, which is really early. But I'm not going to post it yet to save myself ridicule if it doesn't happen.

Someone please end this.

In the wake of receiving potent drugs for the treatment of coronavirus, the U.S. President tonight has publicly raised the prospect of criminally prosecuting the FBI, CIA, Hillary Clinton, and has announced the declassification of highly-classified national security material.

Probably someone else that lives in the house. We got a house with two trump signs and then the typical democratic signs behind them.

Beat me to it. Consummate political loser. I feel like if she went the McCain or Flake route she may have had an outside shot of retaining the seat.

I'm actually watching the debate right now on YouTube. McSally is a stone cold idiot but I get azrider's concerns about Kelly on a national level. He's had a few Rubio moments where he's just repeating lines. That said, McSally is finished ...

Plan this year for Biden on down seems to be stick to the script and let the other side implode. It's working, clearly.

Again, the tweets sound like Trump, but the man is 74 years old and just hospitalized with a severe case of Covid. I have no idea what's going on, nor does anyone else outside the WH!

It's not discussed much, but I wonder if dems could go after Kavanaugh for lying under oath multiple times. They didn't seem willing to do it at the time, but maybe Trump ramming through his nominee would now give them enough political cover to do it. It would be a pretty easy case to make, I think. I'm not sure of the whole process, but if possible, it could change the tilt of the court to a more manageable 5-4.

Welp, Trump has lost Ben Shapiro:

https://www.foxnews.com/media/ben-shapi ... diate=true

Check out the comment section. It is the most anti-Trump I have ever seen. Sounds like a lot of 2016 Trump voters are fed up with his act and willing to vote for Biden in order to "reset." Probably a little too late for the GOP, but it is the cockroach party so they may still survive for a while longer before needing to significantly change their platform to remain relevant. There is no way their current platform will fly in, say, 20 years.

Ha, it actually makes me optimistic. It is still a cesspool, but not nearly as fetid as usual.

"My opponent is claiming that he's not a politician, or not even a Democrat, but that's counterfeit," said McSally. "The truth is that he is bought and paid for by Chuck Schumer, whose path to power goes through Arizona."


Mistress McSally, can we have a look at who punches your meal ticket and seems to assert control over your time in the Senate?

Really rich coming from somebody who was rejected by voters and then handed the seat.

Sonny Perdue is on NPR, he is a horror. This is the best census ever, no one ever has collected more data. He's like a fossil trump just talking on and on. Seems like he is counting door knocks and phone calls as the definition of done.

In the end Trump gets to modify the count and reduce the number of immigrants. That sounds like a recipe for disaster.
