    supreme court weighed in and said they are ready to decide the election if there are discrepancies. We know where this is going!

    Obviously Eric A. drew this one.

    Another ‘non partisan’ effort.

    .

    Closest I’ve seen of the MSM, as magats call it, pressing Trump on anything is a reporter today asking Trump why he violated the rules at Arlington. His answer: I don’t know who did it! I don’t know anything about the rules and regulations at Arlington! It was a set up! Somebody else did it! Maybe it was THEM!

    It’s astonishing that such a stable genius cannot comprehend the rules: Basically, don’t urinate on the graves of our honored dead. It’s sacred ground.

    .

    Of course all magats believe he was totally justified because he found one family that would ‘invite’ him to do a campaign stunt on sacred ground. And anyway, they’re all ‘suckers and losers’, right?

    The mainstream media really misses interviewing adults whose words are truthful and coherent, the people not wearing red hats.

    The mainstream media distorts the truth all the time, they just look honest next to the fox.

    Yeah, the Harris High is still going, but I’m waiting for the crash. It WILL happen. Always does. That being said, she said a few things that caught my interest. We’ll see what the coming months make of it…

    Checking the wayback machine, it wasn’t too long ago the same people saying Kamala HT Harris was a drag on Biden’s reelection are now saying she’s such a wonderful candidate. Seems a little too much like the tail trying to wag the dog.

    Meanwhile, JD Vance — or whatever his name is this week — was so bad at his event before a firefighters union convention that he was actually booed.

    Scott, if one of Kamala’s staff physically pushed an Arlington employee for trying to enforce the rules, the “mainstream media” would have an absolute feeding frenzy.

    Here is a review on Ted Rall’s angle from the most recent DMZ: There is a scene in “Gladiator” where the weaselly Senator Falco advises Emperor Commodus using an analogy of a sea snake that allows its prey to nibble on it in order to lure the future victim toward its fate. Ted tried a similar take with Russia allowing Ukraine to run amok through its lands, this in lieu of the very obvious truth of an incompetent, undisciplined failure of a military force. This take came after Ted likened himself to blue collar, Ohio-born, Ivy League-educated J.D. Vance, whom Ted considers to be the only smart person in the room, Ted again revealing his absolute love of the Machiavellian style, to include the added complete lack of morals. Ted’s partner, Scott Stantis, wondered aloud why people dislike Vance, so. It was quite the listen. I rank it right up there with the person I spoke with yesterday during a run who told me that one cannot see the moon during the day. The man is in his fifties. It’s episodes like these when I hearken back to the Billy Madison scene (and I have never watched anywhere near the whole movie, just this magnificent part), we are all made a lil’ dumber from our exposure to these genres, and yes, they have evolved to genres, there’s so many.

    The media has been giving trump free attention for over ten years now. Every thing that comes out of his mouth is reported over and over! It doesn’t matter how little sense he’s making it’s reported as news.

    Pretty lightweight cartoons from Stantis yesterday and today. Did he get all tired out with his “purpose” cartoon?

    Imagine that, The Harris/Walz “interview” was taped to erase the errors, only lasted 18 minutes, and NOTHING was resolved in it. Total waste of space and time.

    Back in the “olden days” before social media came along – most larger cities had at LEAST two newspapers, – one for the liberals and one for the conservatives; and there were three weekly news magazines -“Newsweek” for the republicans; “Time” for the democrats; and “U.S. News and World Reports” for a basically unbiased telling of the news, and the THREE major television networks tried and usually succeeded in bring unbiased news into our home in 15-minute bites – ah, those were the days, my friend…

    And here’s a note to M.A.G.A.ts – the federal government has little if any control of “cable” networks like Fox and M.S.N.B.C. OR Newsmax…

    Last summer the same media and the dems were looking for a way to get her off the ticket. Today, not so much, interesting.

    There is no such thing as the “mainsteam media”. It is a myth made up by conservatives. They compete with each other for the exclusive story, or first to break a story, not share any story. They’ve competed since the late 1800s. But those who get caught always try to deflect the blame.

    The media is not in love with Harris, nor does it hate tRump. However, those who write columns or broadcast in opinion, op-ed pieces, surely do favor almost anyone other than someone with a rape judgment against them, 34 guilty felony convictions and having led an insurrection against the U.S. I think they are trustworthy.
