Too many fishing lines in the same pond. It’s so overcrowded that even James Comey, the insufferable, holier-than-thou ex-FBI director, just tried his hand at it. And still, the great Trump whale eludes them. It beckons the self-righteous description of another failed fisherman, Captain Ahab: “all my means are sane, my motive and my object mad.” In other words, it’s the inverse of the classic Costanza-inspired breakup: “It’s not me. It’s YOU.” Curses and drat, ye Trump! For 10 long years, Democrats have been hunting Donald Trump. For 10 long years, they’ve done everything they could to spear the great monster of the Republic — the dreaded leviathan who is “dismantling our democracy.”

While I don't disagree with the major premises of the article, that Trump is a target far beyond dem capability to attack, that existing dem "leadership" is soiled beyond saving based on their actions supporting Mr. Potato Head and other deceptive and incompetent stands, and that current Socialist alternatives for dem leadership, like AOC, are DOA, I don't see a path to rebuild. First, all the Left's people with any kind of standing to speak have been increasingly insane and corrupt against Trump for 10+ years. The kind of visceral hatred they espoused cannot be simply set aside. Next, the corruption and rot in the dem party (and some Republicans) is massive and it is being spotlighted by Trump's actions and DOGE's discoveries. They have been robbing Americans blind and giving money to our enemies. The dems have also shown themselves to be GROSSLY incompetent, especially when compared to what Trump and his people have accomplished in 4 short months; the border being an incendiary example. The economic changes, just starting to come into fruition, also to be stellar. Finally, the Socialist intrusion into the dem party is deep and well rooted. Half the dem party thinks Socialism is great or at least OK. Unfortunately, that leaves the other half of the dem party and 3/4 of America as a whole, out of sync with the Socialists. So there is to be a pivot? To what? With what group of people? First, Trump is delivering satisfaction to 50% of America and that is likely to rise as his policies deliver the successes that they are sure to AND as his opposition continues to implode. Let's guess that by the midterms, 60% of Americans are OK with Trump. They are not looking for another path. The remaining 40% are out of sync with the rest of the country in one way or another, either still focused on "Orange Man Bad", espousing Socialism, embracing failed policies and failed leadership, or thrashing around to "find themselves". I think it is very likely the dems will continue to pivot, blowing with the wind from chaos to more chaos largely because they lack the wherewithal to do anything else. A rebuilding of their party requires a focal point to build on. The dems are adrift without a purpose that Americans can value. In fact, the MAIN thing that wins elections, a party on the side of the American people, has been locked in by Trump. What is left for the dems to claim?

Their pivot is more lies. Nothing has changed. Don't watch what they say, watch what they do. Another lefty is about to package themself as a 'moderate', It worked for Obama, but in the end, everyone knew it was all lies. The left tried to make Socialism and Communism more acceptable. That failed when prices went through the roof and their supporters realized they were being ignored and lied to. The left does not share power and the people at the top believe they are entitled to EVERYTHING. As for the blame game, I compare it to a bunch of cannibals arguing over who is next for dinner.

As they have done in the past, look for the Democrats themselves, and through their media propagandists, to make themselves look more conservative than the wimpy Republicans before the next election with the objective of fooling enough American voters to win the election. While they won’t be able to beat Trump in that off year election, they will do everything they can to essentially kick enough wimpy Republicans out of the Congress to take majority control, and then turn the last two years of the Trump term into continuous impeachment filings, and subsequent trials in the US Senate, with only Democrat priorities having a chance of passage into law. You have to figure that, because as of today, the wimpy Republicans can’t even pass trump’s priority legislation, the so-called “big beautiful bill” through the Congress.

They bleat that they "want to go forward" which means they're going to invest their time ~ with help from the media ~ in trying to make people forget how they lied to us for 4+ years. Additionally, it'd be necessary for them to be contrite and apologize. However, this is an attribute that does not exist in their DNA. They could never admit they lied. If they did people might ask WHY they lied and that is the crux of the problem. There's no way they want all of their corruption and treason to come to light. They can't go forward until they go back; they're between a rock and a hard place. No sympathy here.....

Note the recent squabble between recently-elected DNC vice-chair David 'Camera' Hogg and the 'Rat Fossils (Chuck-the-Schmuck, Pee-Lousey, and numerous other 'Rats who are decades past their sell-by dates). Hogg said he wanted to primary these superannuated politicians and bring in new blood. Unfortunately for him, the Fossils have their hands on several lever of power within the DNC. Last I heard, they were trying to scheme a way to invalidate their own, in-party election, dump Hogg, and select (not Elect) someone more (to their liking/under their control). Of course if this turmoil was happening amongst the Pubbies, the Lamestreams would push it in our face every hour of every day. But, as it's amongst the 'Rats, they don't mention it, and most media-Sports-obsessed people are not even aware that it is going on. Just keep up the Bread and Circuses, lamestreams!

Hamas aimed to torpedo normalization efforts between Israel and Saudi Arabia with the October 7 massacre, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing Hamas meeting transcripts found by the IDF. The Wall Street Journal reported that Hamas's former chief, Yahya Sinwar, was concerned that normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel would take attention away from pushes for Palestinian statehood. According to the documents, Sinwar said that there was “no doubt that the Saudi-Zionist normalization agreement is progressing significantly," and that such an agreement would “open the door for the majority of Arab and Islamic countries to follow the same path.”

The big news from yesterday and today is that the tapes of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s interview with Joe Biden about unsecured classified documents in Biden’s garage became public. They showed a man who was obviously in the grips of senile dementia and who therefore had no business running anything, let alone the world’s most powerful country, one armed with nuclear weapons. Since I already knew in 2020 that Biden was suffering from dementia, a progressive condition—and then I’d watched it progress for the next four years—the Hur tapes affirmed what I already knew. They weren’t news, indeed, to any conservatives. What has been newsworthy is

The majestic Cuauhtémoc — which has a crew of 277, mostly cadets — apparently lost power as it was sailing out of New York on its way to Iceland and the current carried it into the road deck of the bridge around 8:30 p.m., according to Mayor Eric Adams and footage of the crash.

Axios has now released the full Special Counsel Robert Hur interview of Joe Biden about the classified documents that were found at his home and office. The interview tok place over two days, October 8 and 9, 2023, with Hur and his Deputy Special Counsel Marc Krickbaum. There are more than five hours of audio. As we've reported, the audio clips previously released show how bad Biden was, not even remembering the date of his son's death, or when President Donald Trump became president the first time in January, 2017.

As RedState reported, several portions of audio from Joe Biden's infamous interview with former special counsel Robert Hur were published by Axios on Friday, and to say they were shocking would be the understatement of the century. It's not that we didn't know Biden was completely senile. This site has written countless stories on the multitude of public appearances by Biden that devolved into doddering confusion, whether it was slurring his words, forgetting the names of his cabinet officials, or repeatedly getting lost trying to exit stages.

Republican spending hawks dealt a significant blow to President Trump’s domestic agenda on Friday, blocking his “big, beautiful” bill from advancing through the House Budget Committee. The measure failed in a 16-21 vote, with five Republicans voting no: Representatives Chip Roy of Texas, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, Andrew Clyde of Georgia and Lloyd Smucker of Pennsylvania.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced Friday that it had launched “Operation Gideon’s Chariots,” aimed at clearing out the remaining Hamas terrorists, tunnels, and weapons from Gaza — inch by inch. Earlier this month, as Breitbart News reported, Israel called up its reserves and began preparing the operation, warning Hamas that it would launch Gideon’s Chariots if all hostages were not freed by the conclusion of U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to the region. As Breitbart News reported at the time: Military analysts describe “Gideon’s Chariots” as a classic “clear, hold, build” strategy to root out Hamas and create new, credible, demilitarized civilian authorities to govern the Palestinian communities in Gaza.

Newly released audio from then-President Joe Biden’s lengthy interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur captures Biden’s diminished mental acuity in his failure to recall the year his son Beau passed away, the year his vice presidency ended, the year President Donald Trump was first elected, and why he possessed certain classified documents. Biden’s long pauses and incoherent ramblings in response to light questioning from Hur are apparent in over four minutes of audio first reported by Axios on Friday night. The partial release fulfills expectations that the Trump administration would finally disclose the long-anticipated interview tape after Biden’s administration obstructed its disclosure at every turn.

We reported earlier how some of the audio from Special Counsel Robert Hur team's interview with Joe Biden had been released by Alex Thompson, one of the authors of the new book about Biden, "Original Sin." That audio segment dealt with how confused Biden was, even over such a pivotal moment as when his son died. As you may recall, Biden later didn't tell the truth and attacked the Hur team for mentioning his son, but the audio shows that yes, indeed, it was Biden who brought up his son. Biden also had confusion over things like when President Donald Trump first took office. It's one thing reading

The U.S.-born pontiff delivered an address Friday to the Vatican diplomatic corps where he affirmed that marriage is between a man and a woman, and emphasized the dignity of unborn children and the elderly. “It is the responsibility of government leaders to work to build harmonious and peaceful civil societies. This can be achieved above all by investing in the family, founded upon the stable union between a man and a woman, ‘a small but genuine society, and prior to all civil society,'” Pope Leo XIV said, with a reference to Pope Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum encyclical.

Honest Abe. Old Hickory. Tippecanoe (and Tyler too). Silent Cal. The Gipper. Been some iconic nicknames for U.S. presidents. Should Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz ever reach the big-boy seat in the Oval Office, he should probably invest in a better nickname, because his current one doesn’t exactly convey an inspirational sense of wisdom, majesty, courage, or purpose. I looked it up: There were roughly 300 news articles — from mainstream, legitimate news outlets — that referred to Tim Walz as “Tampon Tim.” Those outlets included NPR, Time Magazine, CBS News, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, MSNBC, People Magazine, Bloomberg, The Daily Beast, HuffPost, The Washington Post, USA Today, TMZ,
