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 Donald Trump Administration and Presidency.
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

There is simply no running away from this.
Georgians do not want to trade in steady leadership that has made our state consistently one of the strongest economies in America, with one of the lowest unemployment rates, with strong investments in our educational system to roll the dice on someone who allowed our Capital City to burn, who tried to make people prisoners in their own homes during COVID, and who allowed brave police officers to be prosecuted for doing their jobs.
People want government to be competent and for those running it to have common sense.
Democrats have nominated a candidate for Governor who was a shockingly incompetent Mayor and wedded to an insane Woke ideology that has no connection to the concerns of most Georgians.
BTW – if you don’t think that a lot more can be done at the state level, than the federal level, in regards to many matters that affect the day-to-day lives of Americans, ask yourself the question of why congressional critters leave DC to run for state positions that require the same state-wide electoral support. It’s why some of us repeat that all good things start at the local level…
Though often unsaid in such harsh terms, would think most would be in agreement with the sentiment.
100% in agreement with the sentiment. that and a couple bucks will get me a cup of coffee.
??? !
Surprised this didn’t start sooner. Letting President Trump have the ability to say DC is safe because of his decision must have been rubbing the likes of Obama raw.
Shots fired *at* White House
Did the SS actually hit the shooter?
Yup. Swiss Cheese.

Too slow for an Oreshnik.

My daughter and grandchildren are in D.C. this weekend too.
I hope they stay safe.

Women’s museum bill collapses after Dems revolt over ‘biological women’ language
Article Link
Bipartisan lawmakers voted against legislation that would have advanced the construction of a new women’s history museum in Washington, D.C., amid disagreements over “identity politics,” with House Democrats criticizing the proposed exclusion of transgender individuals from the museum.

South Carolina Senate Advances 2026 Redistricting Map That Eliminates Clyburn’s Gerrymandered Seat – 7 RINOs Vote ‘No’
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/05/south-carolina-senate-advances-2026-redistricting-map/
Some of these people voting no are concerned about the many millions of dollars that it will cost to rearrange the primary dates, reprint materials, new venues for the voting etc etc. Also, the redistricting is happening very quickly as opposed to the usual 2 yrs; concerns about who drew the new districts.
Only the House elections need to be delayed, not the rest of the primaries. As for the redistricting happening quickly, I seem to remember in 2020 how quickly states made new laws for mail-in voting.
I am just sharing what has been said on the local news and snippets from the hearings.
BS.
And in any event — getting rid of the execrable Clyburn AND making it tougher for the Commies to win back the House in Nov is…
Human interest story:
Nashville Titans diet change:
https://gridironheroics.com/robert-saleh-titans-seed-oil-ban-nutrition/
Big Ag won’t like that.
I did a quick Brave AI…they, the AI, seem to lean on seed oils being healthy…mentions social media being against them, was a long infobit but this is how they lean in AI…
“Major health organizations, including the American Heart Association and the Cleveland Clinic, state there is no scientific evidence that seed oils are toxic or inherently bad for health; in fact, they are often recommended to replace saturated fats to lower bad cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular disease risk. ”
The claim that seed oils are harmful primarily stems from social media narratives rather than robust clinical data.
I wonder how the weekend will play out…its 80 degrees in Chicagoland (today, due for mid 80’s on Monday)…a long holiday weekend…so far this week, 3 shot and killed.

Nice. It’s been in the low 50’s for two days in central NC after being in the 90’s last week. My body does not know what season it is.
Two of the people whose opinions, advice and perspectives I trust and rely on most in this world are Sundance and Jeff Childers.
Because I’m in the Pacific time zone and it’s late in the Treehouse day, the link below might have already been posted here, so if that’s the case please forgive. But Jeff’s thoughts on Tulsi Gabbard’s upcoming departure strike such a harmonious chord with what Sundance has expressed, especially with regard to her replacement, that it brought me a much needed measure of comfort to read it.
My trust in Jeff’s excellent perception and Sundance’s first-hand involvement are a combined blessing for which I thank our Heavenly Father today (and every day).
As sad as it makes me to see her go and as sorry as I am for what Tulsi and her beloved are facing, I look forward to continued butt-kicking being consistently administered by her office, uninterrupted and firmly applied with prejudice.

Britain is losing its power: Its people are revolting against starmer
Russia is as well but not as much
China is losing its power
Spain is losing its power: its people are empowered and revolting against their PM
Poland is strengthened
Venezuela lost its Dictator and its people are regaining power
Puerto Rico is losing the power of the Cartesl and its people are regaining power
Mexico Admin is losing its power, Cartels are losing thier power, the people are safer and may gain some power back
Canada is losing the power of its image as a friendly neighbor, replace with a more realistic image of their grifting
Japan is more of an Ally than it ever has been
Germany leadership losing its power
EU losing its power. Citezens of european countries are rooting for Donald Trump
All of this is indirect effect of Donald Trump
The work of MAGA is impeded by the use of lawfare and the power of the consitituion turned against us. Funded in large part by international forces and greedy corporations through crooked politicians, attorneys, and government workers.
Donald Trump has attacked all of our internal enemies by frontal assault. They are funded from abroad. He is DOGEing much of that, cutting the foreign funding. The internal enemies of our country are being weakened by the day.
Elections are becoming more honest in every way
Perfection is a long way off, but the goal is still Truth. And we are making incredible progress by the day with the grace of God.
God is good. He and his Truth are our salvation both individually and as a Nation.
Our president and administration just rededicated our Nation back to God — publicly and officially. It didn’t make the press very much. Our national administration prays hard and frequently together.
We as individuals and as a nation must seek God, let him transform us, let His wisdom prevail in our actions and our speech.
We must do everything as if we were doing it for the Lord
We must do with all our might everything our hands find to do
We must count everything as rubbish, except for knowing Jesus, and loving each other as He loved us.
God is doing more than we can ask or imagine.
Amen and add Cuba.
One of the few Senators that have actually tried to do the right things – and became so disgusted with the way things are done that he’s leaving after a single term and running for governor.
A lot of truth in the statement…

You know it’s really bad when even liberal candidates call out the election fraud…
Liberal candidate from the 2022 Nevada election calls out the massive amount of fraud and the 293 election violations against Nevada being used against Republicans because it was so bad.
The DMV changed 44,000 voters’ ballots to non-partisan without permission, blocking them from voting for their party. Despite a lawsuit, Nevada still blocked poll watchers with 6ft walls, shelves, boxes, or by keeping observers 50 feet away.
Republicans were directed to vote on different machines and told to put their ballots in different areas. A box of election thumb drives went missing, ballots were loaded and unloaded from vans at night. Observers were ushered out at 11:30 PM with only 10% of the vote counted, the same shady tactics used in the 2020 election.
She stated, “Technically this primary doesn’t even affect me, but even I can see something is wrong, EVERYONE CAN!”
There have been numerous cases where dems used voter fraud in their races against other dems.
I figure that is why passing the SAVE AMERICA ACT has over 80% approval regardless of political party.

Remember when…
JMO.
The new IRAN plan, is a goulash cooked up in some mid-eastern kitchen with the following cooks involved:
“call with President Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of The United Arab Emirates, Emir Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, and Minister Ali al-Thawadi, of Qatar, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah, of Pakistan, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of Türkiye, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, of Egypt, King Abdullah II, of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain,,”
This has to be a Babylon Bee type joke. It has all of the characteristics:
The most powerful nation on earth has expended its blood and treasure and then kow-tows to a cabal of “muslims, etc.” for control of the outcome? No way, jose!

Not only no, but hell no, do we think this is what should be done and agreed to.
Mr. President ……….. to quote Nance Reagan, “Just say no” and stay with your “Iran agrees to an immediate unconditional surrender” or finish the job of destroying the danger as you have so accurately defined.
God bless and protect you, your family, your supporters and the USA.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!

Feds subpoena Hasan Piker, Medea Benjamin over Cuba trips
(Investigation part of broader dragnet involving as many as 40 American citizens who joined Marxist convoy to Havana)

I wonder if people like Hasan and Medea are true believers in their commie ideology or if they have found promoting it financially rewarding, or maybe a combination of both..

FWIW…
My own view is that not a penny of funds should be unfrozen until after all i’s are dotted, t’s are crossed, and enriched nuclear material is no longer in Iran’s possession…and of course, the Strait once again is treated as the international waterway with the full freedom of navigation such a designation includes.
Doesn’t sound like a decision today one way or the other…

Wisconsin Big Cheat Big Trouble
“At about 10:30pm, an announcement was made to the center that we were finished for the night and that all the ballots had been counted … I stayed on after 10:30pm to help bundle up our ballots … Around midnight I … noticed activity and bright lights in another part of the room.
People were still counting ballots from a very late drop of ballots. I was surprised to see this as we were told that the count was done at 10:30pm.
Around 2:30am on November 4, 2020 I went to check out and submit my hours worked and they were still counting ballots in the same lighted area. I asked a fellow worker what was going on and he said there was a late drop of ballots being brought in for count.”
– Counting ballots without observers present is illegal in Wisconsin.
– Counting ballots after an announcement of all ballots counted is illegal in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin wankers…
Do you know what’s in your food? A strong case against processed food, as well as for knowing your supplier. Have a garden, establish a relationship with local farmers and ranchers, if you can’t pronounce it – don’t buy it. IMO what you eat – and don’t eat – is one of the very significant factors in your health.
Sorry about that mods – got distracted watching the Indy. My bad. Apologies.
