Indeed a gracious concession! For the Michiganders, time to rally behind the official candidate irrespective of who they supported in the primary. What's at stake right now if far bigger than anything between the candidates within the party!

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

"That's what friends do when you have crisis [sic] and fires." Wonder who/what prime minister Carney has in his mind for that comment!

I think this picture is fake since aliens abducted Elvis as soon as they saw him and left the planet. So they couldn't have waited for JFK and Abe Lincoln to come to the party! Proved.

Trump imposed tariffs. Companies hiked prices. We paid the higher prices at grocery stores. Trump refunded the money. Companies collected the refund. You get the idea of how a businessman-president is serving the citizens of the country! A government of crooks! finance.yahoo.com/economy/arti...

On "why are the Vances taking on the project": the inflation is so high that even JD Vance cannot afford the eggs - despite the corrupt dollars he has been raking in! So they raising chickens!

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 3w ago

Vice President Vance and his family are raising chickens at their residence. Who is raising the hens? Why are they taking on this project? The Post turned to backyard chicken keepers to figure out what may be going on at the U.S. Naval Observatory.

Whatever but don't tell me he was a patriot. He was not. He helped Trump break America. Repeatedly. His legacy is helping Trump burn down the Republic, the rule of law and the Constitution. He knew better yet chose corruption. He left, leaving behind a burning war that he architected for Trump.

South Carolina's Republican Governor, Henry McMaster has the authority to name a replacement: presumably another republican.

GOP has a voter problem: finding enough voters to win in midterms. Democrats have the inverse problem: finding the candidates to collect the votes of their energized voters - which shows their fissured, incompetent leadership. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov

Was that Obam's fault or Biden's, Mr President?

Apropos

Has anyone seen a story about or an interview of the lady in the picture about how she ended up in that bus? I know there is NO news value to it when so many good things such as Trump speech, fireworks, ... are all going on. Just asking, in case there was a journalist in DC who found time!

I hear there is someone very famous and loved, named Taylor Swift who is rumored to be getting married. Let's petition her to get married in PUBLIC, and at the same time that Trump has scheduled his 250 celebrations and have her wedding broadcast on all TV channels!

"All persons born ... in the United States ... are citizens of the United States" is 13 words. Crystal clear thirteen words. Justices thought there was some ambiguity in it & take 36+ weeks to discuss it and still four of them cannot see it! Wonder why public don't trust the court?!

Bans on transgender athletes is the biggest bummer. The campaign reform decision says more about the corruption and politicization in the Court than it does anything to elections: likes of Musk were anyway throwing obscene amounts of money through the loopholes of election finance laws anyway.

What is the difference in governing between US and Iran? In Iran their Guardian Council has twelve members and in US of A, there are only nine justices. Of course, the Iranian Council does not hide their allegiance to their religion & leader: they accept up holding their relition and their leader!

What is common between the "Iran Excursion" and the "Pool Saga": 1. Start the illegal project - simply because you want to. 2. Screw it up beyond redemption but make money for your family and your cronies. 3. Blame the screw up on others including Biden, Obama. On to next repeat!
