In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

“Based on recent developments, including the former president’s announcement that he is a candidate for president in the next election, and the sitting president’s stated intention to be a candidate as well, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint a special counsel,” Garland said.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/18/politics/justice-department-trump-special-counsel/index.html
Garland is explicitly stating the reason for a special counsel is political.
Garland MUST be impeached. That had better be McCarthy’s first order of business.
Exactly. If Trump weren’t running for President they wouldn’t investigate him? Did he commit crimes or not?
Reminder: pres Clinton was impeached – and remained in office thru the term.
( and media does not repetitively provide that true tagline for decades –
former impeached democrat president clinton. )
But they could.
But they don’t. Proven by inactions.
I.e.
the goal needs to more legally meaningful for miss performed illegality(s),
so,
what is the more, or additional and appropriate use of resources towards a lasting deterant?

Scott Ritter interview the Commander of the Chechen Special Forces. Fascinating interview. The Chechen military are guided by faith in God and moral integrity.
The commander also mentions the Ukrainian Army no longer exists. All they hear on the radio are English and Polish speakers. NATO is officially fighting Russia now in the Ukraine. All NATO needs to do now is expose themselves. This to me explains why the money continues to flow…to support American and NATO troops on the ground in Ukraine at all costs.
PTrump on Truth Social:
The Supreme Court of the United States has the lowest Approval Rating in its long and storied history. No wonder – There are leaks and they can’t find the leaker (which is easy to do!), they are petrified of the Radical Left Maniacs (Democrats) who are destroying our Country, are unwilling to make bold, courageous, and proper decisions on Rigged and Stolen Elections, and are always wanting to be Politically Correct instead of doing what is BEST for the USA. We need Strength & Wisdom, NOW!
Why would anybody be surprised that the Supreme Court has ruled against me, they always do! It is unprecedented to be handing over Tax Returns, & it creates terrible precedent for future Presidents. Has Joe Biden paid taxes on all of the money he made illegally from Hunter & beyond. The Supreme Court has lost its honor, prestige, and standing, & has become nothing more than a political body, with our Country paying the price. They refused to even look at the Election Hoax of 2020. Shame on them!
Anyone surprised?
Lisa Murkowski wins reelection in Alaska Senate race
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/lisa-murkowski-wins-reelection-alaska-senate-race
It was the Dems who decided this one. Prior to the ranked-choice calculations Murkowski had 43% of the votes and Tshibaka had 42%. Whoever (most of) the Dems ranked as #2 ended up being the winner.
So, if the Dims can’t elect their candidate then they elect the Republicans. Damn, what a scam. Turtle laughing his azz off. I’m sure.
Hehe…
Just saw that they announced Lisa Murkowski won the Alaska Senate Race
Thanks to Rank Choice Voting
Thanks to Mitch McConnell
This is just another way to manipulate voting-Massive Mail-In Voting and now Rank Choice Voting
I bet many other states will adopt Rank Choice Voting for Open Primaries and regular elections

ALASKA YOU BLEW IT AGAIN! YOU LOST THAT HOUSE SEAT AGAIN! IDIOTS!
CAN YOU NOT FIGURE OUT HOW RANKED CHOICE WORKS?
HERE, LET ME HELP YOU. YOU RANK THE REPUBLICANS #1 and #2 IN WHICHEVER ORDER YOU PREFER. THAT WAY IF ONE IS KNOCKED OUT THE OTHER ONE WILL INHERIT THE VOTES.
Sarah Palin and Paul Begich, if you failed to urge your voters to vote this way then it’s YOUR FAULT too. Thank God we didn’t need that seat to win the House majority! Idiots.
see how they cant lose:
Dems 1st choice is who they want, 2nd is murkowski
Repubs 1st choice is a candidate of choice, then the other candidate of choice
Guarantee Dem or Murkowski win….
Right you are. Rank Choice Voting is just another way the UniParty controls elections.
But the conservative voters were able to make Palin or Begich win. They were just STUPID. Gave away a House seat to a Dem. Palin easily won the primary.
If Alaskans would have followed my advice, which I presented here numerous times (probably a dozen or more), then either Palin or Begich would have won.
In the special election for the partial term caused by Don Young’s death, stupid Paul Begich supporters ranked the Dem #2 instead of Palin, thus handing the seat to the Dem. Palin was the primary winner, easy win for her. I’m pretty sure (because I checked) neither Palin nor Begich tried to set the voters straight after that special election debacle. I had a strong feeling the voters would blow it again, and they did.
At least the Senate seat is still owned by the GOP. That’s more important than whether Tshibaka or Murkowski is in it. We already lost one Senate seat in the mid-terms, we really can’t afford to lose more. There’s a chance in 2024 we could have a filibuster-proof majority but when stupid voters do stupid sh*t that compromises our chances.
That’s gross. No gloves.

The more I learn, the worse it gets. The world should know the truth of what has been happening at Twitter.
Transparency will earn the trust of the people.

It has been really bad. Far left San Francisco/Berkeley views have been propagated to the world via Twitter.
I’m sure this comes as no surprise to anyone watching closely.
Twitter is moving rapidly to establish an even playing field. No more thumb on the scale!

repeat motivation of a fed up person.
You election is the Catalyst of an explosion of anger in mass group protest, locally everywhere, not stopping until resignation.
40,000 people in a rally – is a number that could protest at a place near there.
that 40,000 is each rally location.
how many locations has PDJT done in the past? do the math. No DC jury.

Of course they did.
I’m rewatching Mindhunters. It is interesting that the Academic, Ivy League Researcher’s prior work was on CEOs of leading Corporations. She says they were all Psychopathes.
That’s something you don’t hear much. When talking about Business, the focus is on $$$ Profits/Loses as if the humans involved have no Spirituality or Higher Beliefs…
…when we know from History – they are often – Social Engineers.
But the Psychopath claim caught my ear because I had been thinking about how the Bill Gates + Elon Musk-types seem to end up viewing the humble masses the way we do characters in video games…
