Sen. Mitt Romney penned a Fourth of July op-ed for The Atlantic warning Americans that they're failing to confront serious challenges and that they need to wake up. 'President Joe Biden is a genuinely good man, but he has yet been unable to break through our national malady of denial, deceit, and distrust,' Romney writes. 'A return of Donald Trump would feed the sickness, probably rendering it incurable.' The opinion piece is entitled, 'America Is in Denial,' with Romney pointing to issues like climate change, the border crisis and rising inflation that are getting ignored by large swaths of the population,

Mt is just a narcissist. President Trump was her best President we’ve had in a long time. He was a billionaire when he ran so he doesn’t have to fill his coffers. The election was stolen from him and us. What did Corville mean by his statement.

Romney has to be more deeply involved with financial interests in Ukraine then he has let on. So that would make him commiserate with his fellow corruptocrat Biden.

I was raised in Utah and am a Mormon. I am disgusted beyond belief with Mitt Romney. I am also disgusted that whenever there is a posting about Romney or anything that happens in Utah some here are compelled to badmouth Utahns and the LDS church. I would never be compelled to mock the Catholic Church for having members as evil as Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden.

Mittens, the "national malady" is that the nation was stolen from her people, and a usurper wields the reins of power, and he is genuinely a really bad person, who owes more to foreign agents than the people of the United States. Those of us who are still civilized assumed that our great institutions, the FBI, the Postal police, the federal courts would resolve this issue. They turned out to be as corrupt as we now know them to be. So we don't have a president and the person occupying the office is not a leader, and there is apparently no recourse. And until this crime is fully addressed and rectified, our country will continue to bleed. Mittens, you are one of the horde of bad guys who made this happen. You burned your bridges. Fold it seven ways Pierre... You know the rest.

People like him, who pretend to be conservatives, run as Republicans, and then turn into liberals once in office, need to be held accountable. Not only do they need to be run out of office by their constituents, but they need to face considerable shame, from Americans. No one by the time they reached his age, and certainly no one who grew up in a political family as he did, suddenly has a huge change of heart at his age. He has probably always been a liberal, but only ran as a conservative in order to be elected. Shameful.

To add to #36, Biden has been a liar his whole life. He told obvious lies and was rejected as a presidential candidate years ago. Even if the Hunter Biden debauchery and the Ukraine bribery was not known until recently, there was plenty of evidence that Biden was never a "good man." That Romney cannot see it, says that he is nlind or too close to it. Note that his son(s) was also involved in Ukraine corruption.

If Mitt doesn't like Trump, that's Mitt's prerogative. However, I don't see how he can say Biden is a good man. Biden is in many ways as mouthy as Trump ever was. And look at Biden's kids! Have any of Trump's kids been in rehab? But one of Biden's kids is a sexaholic (a daughter, I believe), one is a druggie and a sexaholic (Hunter), and one of them died. We don't know what the dead one got up to. I thought Mitt was all about family. I thought he was wholesome or something.

Of those Harvard University faculty surveyed, 16.08% consider themselves moderate. Only a quarter of those who responded were in support of hiring more conservative-leaning professors, and 31% opposed it. 44% of those who responded said they "neither supported or opposed it."

This is the group made up of Class I railroad management representatives and railroad union officials responsible for defining the new terms. The process has progressed to the end of the tracks. The parties are in a 30-day cooling-off period prescribed by the Railway Labor Act (RLA). The period ends July 18. In anticipation, some unions are taking a strike authorization vote. On Tuesday, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET) announced that 99.5% of their participating members voted to authorize a strike.

Police arrested a man, who is believed to be an illegal immigrant, on Tuesday after he allegedly raped and impregnated a ten-year-old girl who reportedly traveled from Ohio to Indiana for an abortion, according to the Columbus Dispatch. The outlet reported that 27-year-old Gershon Fuentes confessed to raping the ten-year-old child on at least two occasions. The child became the subject of national media attention after the Indianapolis Star reported earlier this month that an Indianapolis-based obstetrician-gynecologist named Caitlin Bernard was asked by a child-abuse doctor in Ohio to help the young girl get an abortion

Pro-abortion fanatic Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has called to shut down crisis pregnancy centers “all around the country” for their work in helping women seek alternatives to abortion. Speaking with reporters, a visibly upset Warren falsely accused crisis pregnancy centers of fooling women out of getting an abortion: In Massachusetts, right now, those ‘crisis pregnancy centers’ that are there to fool people who are looking for pregnancy termination help outnumber true abortion clinics by 3-t0-1. We need to shut them down here in Massachusetts and we need to shut them down all around the country.

Democrats are facing their worst political environment in over a decade heading into November’s mid-term elections. Republicans lead the generic ballot and hold a solid structural advantage in competing for the House of Representatives. And despite concerns about candidate quality, the GOP is also favored to take control of the Senate. The correlation between presidential approval and their party’s mid-term prospects also can’t be ignored. Joe Biden has hit the lowest poll numbers of his term, with a recent Times/Siena poll showing him at just 33 percent approval with only 13 percent believing the country is on the right track.
