"New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) said Sunday there’s a “good shot” that neither President Biden nor former President Trump will be on the presidential ballot in 2024."
“I think Trump can very much lose if they winnow it down to one on one,” he added. “I think there’s a lot of issues that are going to come to bear with President Biden over the next year and a lot of opportunity for the Democrats to find another — another candidate. But to the No Labels point, there’s an opportunity there like never before. It would have to be the right candidate. It has to be somebody very energizing, positive.”

What say ye to Sununu's prediction?...

At least they got it right...
THEY FOLLOWED THE LAW!

4. When Trump sold the leases, only 3 bidders participated and most of the major oil companies passed.
5. Only one well has ever been drilled in ANWR, and that was decades ago, and it was capped before it ever produced a drop.
6. In March of this year, Biden approved the Willow project. It is an $8Bn plan for Conoco Phillips to extract 600 million barrels of oil from federal land in Alaska, and it is still ongoing.
7. The cancellation of these leases is largely seen as a political move to appease the voters mad about the Willow project. Canceling these leases did nothing to affect domestic oil production.

The US is now producing more oil that it did under Trump and leads the world in oil production:

That said, James is right, the combined oil cuts from OPEC and Russia are impacting oil prices now...

Jim, et al, here's what Rich & company believes in:

"Florida taxpayers last year handed parents $43,374 to pay for in-home treadmills, $30,436 to pay for indoor trampolines, and $226,584 to pay for game consoles. Supporters of the state’s publicly-funded expanded school voucher program call it a “21st century approach” to learning, while opponents say the money could be better spent in public school classrooms."

“Theme park passes, 55-inch TVs, and stand-up paddleboards are among the approved items that recipients can buy to use at home,” the Tampa Bay Times reports, thanks to legislation Governor DeSantis signed into law in March. “The purchases can be made by parents who home-school their children or send them to private schools, if any voucher money remains after paying tuition and fees.”

Don't expect a peep from the GOP contenders or those in congress. Even this one guy said it'd be ok for holding back promotions! If it was a Democrat doing the same for their own selfish reason or any reason, then you'd have the same screaming GOP hypocrites that they've always been proclaiming how the "Marxist Democrats" are aiding and abetting communism and compromising our national security at every turn.  Freakin hypocrites, every one of 'em...

Rivaling that disgusting "amazing" discussion:
"Donald Trump is conjuring his most foreboding vision yet of a possible second term, telling supporters in language resonant of the run-up to the January 6 mob attack on the US Capitol that they need to “fight like hell” or they will lose their country."
"The Republican front-runner’s stark speech raised the prospect of a second presidency that would be even more extreme and challenging to the rule of law than his first. His view that the Oval Office confers unfettered powers suggests Trump would indulge in similar conduct as that for which he is awaiting trial, including intimidating local officials in an alleged bid to overturn his 2020 defeat."

"Conservative Rep. Ken Buck is just one of several House Republicans standing in the way of the right’s push to impeach President Joe Biden."
"Buck has taken his escalating feud with Greene public in recent media appearances. On MSNBC over the weekend, he called Greene’s impeachment comments “absurd” and forcefully pushed back on Greene’s “untrue” suggestion that January 6, 2021, defendants are being mistreated."
https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/12/politics/ken-buck-impeachment-stance/index.html

If Buck doesn't cave, and it doesn't appear that he will, perhaps the realization that allegations are not evidence will actually prevail...

Meanwhile, over in the senate:

"Senate Republicans say the House GOP doesn’t appear to have enough evidence to pursue impeachment proceedings against President Biden and are skeptical about the prospect of setting up an inquiry with multiple committees already investigating the president and his son, Hunter Biden. "

"Republican senators are highly skeptical that Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) could even muster enough votes in the House to pass an article of impeachment and warn it would be quickly dismissed if it ever got to the Senate, possibly without going to a full trial."

"Trump's sharing of alleged classified intelligence to Russian officials in the White House has come under scrutiny amid a large-scale attack by the Hamas Islamist military group against Israel."
""Trump gave military intel to the Russians. The Russians, who are extremely close allies with Iran, gave it to Iran. Iran gave that information to Hamas. Hamas used it to attack Israel. This is why intel security matters."
"Hamas apparently knew how to get around Israel's Iron Dome defenses. They probably learned this from Iran. Iran almost certainly got the information from Russia. And who gave it to Russia? Sure looks like it was Donald Trump, at the request of Putin."

Well guys, I think I'm back! My computer savy daughter helped me register so it looks like I'm good here! 
Missed ya all, too!

PS: Regarding the thread: Not justifying what Hillary said but a) She's not running for president and b) She's not advocating killing military chiefs of staff or imprisoning political opponents like Trump who is running for president..
