In football they’d call her a gameday coach, but not a great recruiter. Woman knew Congressional procedure through & through in a way that Jeffries lacks. Probably a top 5 all time significance Speaker & the most significant since Rayburn.

One of the great tidbits about Trump is at one point if you wanted to use one of his properties as a location - like the irreplaceable Plaza - the producer had to put him in the movie in a cameo.

Turns out the “real reason” is the President is a loon.

>>Only 30 percent of voters believe Mr. Trump has lived up to their expectations for tackling inflation and the cost of living, according to a recent NBC News poll, his lowest mark for any issue asked. And a meager 27 percent of voters in a CNN poll in late October said Mr. Trump’s policies had improved the country’s economic conditions — less than half of those who thought he had made matters worse.<< NYT

Uhm yall….

Danielle Jurinsky just lost her re-election campaign in Aurora. Aurora local news. - Any updates on what the Trump administration has done in Aurora CO?

We have to use weapons to make new ones so we can keep the hamster wheel of the military industrial complex moving Guys, you can’t “Deep State” this one.

What in Sam Hill?

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Ah yes the South Africans overwhelming Miami, you can pay for your stone crabs with krugarand. He’s skipping the G20 because Putin’s excluded.

The Trump administration will begin cutting back flights Friday.

Apparently a Republican Congressman has taken to tracking a fellow Congresswoman’s car.

Judge Cannon has been ordered to release Vol. 2 of the Smith report on Trump’s theft of classified material.

Trump actively sought to invade Venezuela early in his first term and his cabinet restrained him. The reason then was not drug trafficking, it was because Trump wanted a quick winnable war like Panama & Grenada.

‘Highly unusual’: New warning signs for DOJ’s Trump-ordered case against Comey A federal magistrate judge questioned whether privileged material was improperly obtained and used. >>ALEXANDRIA, Virginia — A federal magistrate judge scolded Justice Department prosecutors on Wednesday for an “indict first, investigate second” posture in the criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey, raising new questions about a “highly unusual” case that was ordered up at President Donald Trump’s command. Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatrick raised his concerns at a hearing to resolve questions about how prosecutors were handling evidence against Comey, who is facing a two-count indictment for allegedly lying to Congress in 2020 about the FBI’s investigation into Trump’s contacts with Russia.…. Fitzpatrick’s concerns stemmed from prosecutors’ handling of materials seized through four search warrants issued against Comey associate Daniel Richman in 2019 and 2020, when the FBI’s handling of the Russia probe was first scrutinized by investigators. Richman advised Comey at the FBI until Comey was fired by Trump in May 2017. Comey’s attorneys say the seized materials may include privileged information — in part because Richman was his lawyer at one time — that he has not had a chance to review. Fitzpatrick vented frustration at the Justice Department’s inability to characterize how it had handled the search warrant materials, both during the original review of the Russia probe and its more recent effort to charge Comey. He ordered prosecutors to turn over all of it to Comey’s defense lawyers by close of business Thursday. Fitzpatrick also demanded that DOJ simultaneously provide Comey all records of the grand jury proceedings that led to his indictment, so he can determine if any potentially privileged information was used to secure the charges.…. Comey’s attorneys, including former federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, said they intend to stick to the expedited trial schedule despite challenges combing through massive troves of evidence. That evidence includes reams of classified information that Fitzgerald said he has not been able to review because of a delay in obtaining a security clearance.<<

And on that I’ll throw out Jefferson too, because IIRc he’s got 2 TDs all year & it’s from 2 games wuth JJM.

See to me, that’s disqualifying. He’s hiring people not because of merit but servility. The fact these people are quite frequently TV/media personalities just means he thinks they’re attractive too, & again to me that’s not merit. And IMO they’re being of a certain type fits as part of that as well. And I’m probably going to agree with you all day long about DEI generally.

Fwiw I agree on the maga/GOP stance on DEI in principle, problem is Trump has had his own DEI hires. This isn’t the way to convince people

I don’t think it’s gotten enough notice that Sliwa outright said Trump tried bribing him to drop out.

Kubiak loves him.

Pierce, Washington, Loveland, Franklin. If you have room I’d think about stashing Bigsby, Brian Robinson & Tuten.

Erika Kirk is more my style but thanks for the response.

There’s going to be a lot of bad hyperbole here with the Marxism & communism. NYPost has a hammer & sickle next to Z’s picture. But also the Republicans are totally right about reversing the policies which have energized NYC since the 1980s. I just see a populist reaction here, people rejecting Cuomo, Adams & Trump, & I’m expecting a lot of personality & media conflict with Trump. But *if he improves NYC & gains popularity in NYC itself then it could be a game changer for Dems. OTOH the last 2 mayors (one progressive, the other occasionally supported by maga) ended up being generally disliked & that could happen too.

I just meant the speech writing.

Bloody hell, that’s good stuff.
