Harris picks Tim Walz as VP choice

Look up your new boy Walz and his position on this......that is disgusting enough.
But grabbing women by the pussies is okay, because when you're famous you can do anything, right?

And this is the guy you are voting for? Sorry, if you can condone that then surely you can condone calling a pedophiliac a “minor-attracted person” as it is basically the definition of what it is.

You don't expect Greg to read that, do you?

The last two paragraphs of the article:

"But he said the HRA never did what "bigoted fear-mongering by right-wing activists" claimed it would. The notion that the state is protecting pedophiles is "not a legitimate reading of this statute," Latz said.

Braverman agreed. "We're revisiting the same old tired stereotypes," Braverman said. "It's just never been the case that the Minnesota HRA protects pedophiles."

And: "Braverman and Steenson note that Minnesota statutes already criminalize adult sexual relationships with minors. Pedophilia "falls into a number of categories of criminal conduct, and that's not changing," Braverman said.

Steenson said it was hard to envision a scenario in which an adult in a sexual relationship with a minor could make a claim of discrimination. "I can't imagine what the argument would be if a pedophile walked into a restaurant with a 14-year-old partner and then was refused service," he said."

Since Greg lives in Minnesota and knows all about the law we can give him the benefit of doubt. LOL.

This is just bad form. JD Vance "Swift Boats" Walz military service

Posted By Jim Moscheck

Just no respect. JD Vance criticizing Walzs' military service is just wrong and bad form from one soldier to another.
 
Vance, a corporal who wrote stories and took pictures in a combat zone is dissing an Army Sargent Major for "stolen Valor" and abandoning his troops by retiring to run for political office. 

Running for office is verboten while actively serving in the military.

"In fact, Walz filed paperwork for his congressional run in February 2005, about a month before reports emerged that the Minnesota National Guard might be deployed. Walz then announced his run in May of that year, two months before the Minnesota National Guard’s directive was officially issued."

"Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, who served in Afghanistan as an Army officer, sprang to Walz’s defense Wednesday following Vance’s “stolen valor” comments.

“Anybody who is willing to raise their hand, to put on a uniform of this country — especially when you consider a small percentage of our population has ever done that — they deserve our most respect. That includes JD Vance, Corporal JD Vance, and that includes Sergeant Major Tim Walz,” Moore said on MSNBC, referring to the vice presidential candidates by their respective military ranks. 

“And I think JD Vance knows as being a corporal that you don’t get to sergeant major just because". 

"You get to sergeant major because you’ve served the country.”

For 25 f'ing years.

I won't go that far, but I do feel better about things than I did a month ago after Biden's debate performance, not that the orange guy was much better.

The news conference by him today was full of lies. I had to turn it off after 45 minutes of listening to that BS.

That said, ya' all gotta see ex-navy seal and former governor of Minnesota, not to mention co-star of "Predator", Jesse Ventura's EPIC takedown of JD Vance:

That was great. Say what you want about Ventura, but he's always came across, at least to me, as being genuine, especially so, as he was also a pro wrestler which is not. I like him more and more the older he, and I, get.

He speaks for me and probable some R's here

That was a good read and very persuasive, except none of the Trump evangelicals or MAGA faithful would ever read anything from the "failing" New York Times.

Colorado clerk and election denier Tina Peters guilty

Posted By Jim Moscheck

https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/jurors-deliberating-case-colorado-clerk-tina-peters-election-112787683

"DENVER -- Former Colorado clerk Tina Peters, the first local election official to be charged with a security breach after the 2020 election as unfounded conspiracy theories swirled, was found guilty by a jury on most charges Monday.

Peters, a one-time hero to election deniers, was accused of using someone else’s security badge to give an expert affiliated with My Pillow chief executive Mike Lindell access to the Mesa County election system and deceiving other officials about that person's identity.

Lindell is a prominent promoter of false claims that voting machines were manipulated to steal the election from Donald Trump. His online broadcasting site has been showing a livestream of Peters' trial and sending out daily email updates, sometimes asking for prayers for Peters and including statements from her.

Prosecutors said Peters was seeking fame and became “fixated” on voting problems after becoming involved with those who had questioned the accuracy of the 2020 presidential election results.

The breach Peters was charged of orchestrating heightened concerns over potential insider threats, in which rogue election workers sympathetic to partisan lies could use their access and knowledge to launch an attack from within."

Wow. Seeking fame with the My Pillow Guy? Afterwards Peters said:

“I will continue to fight until the Truth is revealed that was not allowed to be brought during this trial. This is a sad day for our nation and the world. But we WILL win in the end."

OMG! A sad day for the whole world? She's was a f'ing city clerk and local election official.

"Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, whose office helped launch the investigation into Peters, said she will now face the consequences for compromising her own election equipment “trying to prove Trump's Big Lie.”

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said the verdict sent a message.

“Today’s verdict is a warning to others that they will face serious consequences if they attempt to illegally tamper with our voting processes or election systems. I want to be clear—our elections are safe and fair," he said in a statement.

The verdict came just hours after prosecutors urged jurors to convict Peters, saying she deceived government employees so she could work with outsiders affiliated with Lindell."

Yeah, not a good trend for the old crack addict. Now he's in bankruptcy, says he's broke, and begging for money for his legal woes. Never mind he makes 15 million a year as CEO of the pillow company.

UAW's Shawn Fain files lawsuit against Trump and Musk over what was said last night in the Musk interview of Trump

Posted By Jim Moscheck

What a brilliant thing to say when you are trying to court the votes of working folks. If you strike we'll fire you. Another right they want to take away. 

https://apnews.com/article/trump-musk-uaw-unfair-labor-practices-complaints-nlrb-44b6ccdad65c66bf34dffefd5de7cf99

"DETROIT (AP) — The United Auto Workers union has filed unfair labor practice charges against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk after the two discussed on social media about Musk supposedly firing striking workers.

In documents filed Tuesday with the National Labor Relations Board, the union alleges that both men interfered with workers who may want to exercise their right to join a union. The NLRB said it would look into the charges, which are a request for the agency to investigate.

UAW President Shawn Fain, whose union has endorsed Democrat Kamala Harris, said in a statement that Trump is anti-labor.

“Both Trump and Musk want working class people to sit down and shut up, and they laugh about it openly,” Fain said."
