Stating the 2020 presidential election was/is fraudulent, which the majority of GOP voters believe based upon what they hear from your leader is stalinism, fascist and communist,  is not "challenging an election." Going to court and losing such a case, sixty times or more in this bizarro world of yours is,and these challenges have been heard and properly rejected.
But, for the GOP, it made news today for Pence to actually come out and say the election was not stolen. That's where we are in your commie world...

The Dershowitz Predictions!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

The Trump folk at work:
"A pro-Trump personality shared screenshots with more than 2 million followers on their social media, showing what was allegedly the social media profiles of the grand jurors."
“These jurors have signed their death warrant by falsely indicting president Trump," a post on a pro-Trump forum said in response to the leak of juror names, according to NBC News."

The Dershowitz Predictions!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I bet you could hardly wait:

“I predict there’ll be some convictions,” Dershowitz said during an appearance on “Bannon’s War Room,”
"Dershowitz argued these convictions will be reversed, but not until after the election.
“The whole ‘get Trump’ approach is to get him before the election, convict him before the election, and then he wins on appeal,” Dershowitz said.

Looks like Greg was right; they're just trying to prevent Trump from being elected!...

Margie Makes Move On Becoming VP!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"she would be “honored” to share a ticket with the former president and would consider it “very, very heavily.”
"Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has not made up her mind on whether she’ll run for Senate in 2026, but she did express interest in the vice presidency in an interview Wednesday with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution."

“I haven’t made up my mind whether I will do that or not. I have a lot of things to think about,” she said. “Am I going to be a part of President Trump’s cabinet if he wins? Is it possible that I’ll be VP?”

Bad News for Democrats who LOVE killing babies in the womb down in Texas and then brag about it

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Have this on your conscious, if you have any:
"Nearly two years after Texas’ six-week abortion ban, more infants are dying"
"Texas’ abortion restrictions – some of the strictest in the country – may be fueling a sudden spike in infant mortality as women are forced to carry nonviable pregnancies to term."
"Some 2,200 infants died in Texas in 2022 – an increase of 227 deaths, or 11.5%, over the previous year, according to preliminary infant mortality data from the Texas Department of State Health Services that CNN obtained through a public records request. Infant deaths caused by severe genetic and birth defects rose by 21.6%. That spike reversed a nearly decade-long decline. Between 2014 and 2021, infant deaths had fallen by nearly 15%."

Despite your claims to the contrary, no one is out there cheering for late-term elective abortions. This fantasy of yours that you keep asking people to defend simply doesn't exist. I'm sure there are some examples of abuse, but overall, abortion was and still is a highly regulated activity. And what you refuse to acknowledge, because it doesn't advance your fake pro-life moral indignation, is that sometimes abortion is medically necessary.

By the way, no one "mustered the quarterback." JimB acts completely independently when it comes to his interactions with you.

Nope, he's part of the deep state, too! And, of course, a Marxist Democratic communist...

Do any of the current GOP candidate catch your fancy? Let me guess, Nikki Haley...
Of the field, I like what I hear from Chris Christie and Will Hurd the most. That said, I find the MAGA types, primarily DeSantis and Vivek, to be the most disgusting of the lot other than Trump himself. I hear Vivek yesterday on CNN essentially saying he would stop supporting Ukraine (in favor of our border wall with Mexico) and partnering with Putin for a new world order without China. He'd also stop supporting Israel which is going over big on right wing websites. That guy is really scary...

Generally speaking, with the fire risks being what they are in California, why would you want one in your backyard?

I appreciate that, Russ. Like I said, I was speaking in generalities. 
As for the controversy, we have real wildfire risks not only in California but in many regions, due, in large part, to man made global warming that the cons don't believe in...

Regarding Joe's awareness of his son's dealing, it's not that hard for me to believe that Joe did not know how unethical his son was behaving. I can't conclude Joe's dirty without hard evidence.
Still waiting for the GOP house select committees to launch an investigation into Jared Kushner's one billion dollar Saudi deal that even Comer questioned the ethics of doing. But what's that compared to the Hunter Biden's charges? Huh...
PS: Ya see Trump's lawyer told him to do it afterall:
"Former Trump attorney John Eastman stood by false claims that the 2020 election was stolen after he surrendered to authorities in Fulton County over efforts to overturn the Georgia election."
“Absolutely,” Eastman said after NBC News’ Ali Vitali asked him whether he still believes the 2020 election was stolen. “No question. No question about it.”
"There has been no evidence of widespread fraud during the 2020 election despite former President Trump’s and his allies claiming it was “rigged.”
