Re: Montana race. A big issue in Montana is public land mgmt especially with the belief that billionaires have locked up too many private lands. The federal govt owns about 30% of Montana. Tester wants the feds to continue to own/manage the land, whereas his gop opponent Tim Sheehy has made comments about transferring federal land to the state or counties, and there is a belief that he wants some of it sold off to private ownership. Sell it off and the public can't access it. Sheehy has of course said that he doesn't want the public to lose access to these lands. Tester is doing his best to make Montanans not believe that. Not a difficult talk since Sheehy is himself a very wealthy, first generation ranch owner. Sheehy has also been very quiet about his past. He just seemed to pop up in Montana in 2014 and admits that he grew up in Minnesota. That doesn't disqualify him from running for Senate but smaller Western communities can be wary of carpetbaggers.

I bet there is this wild speculation. Two friends/co-workers in law enforcement don't normally get into a gun fight while at work.

While I'm sure that the regulations and reporting are heavy, it's because too many employers played fast and loose with their employees' pensions in the past leaving the taxpayer holding the bag.

I would assume that your employer is locking down backgrounds.

Pleasantly surprised that Cruz agreed to an debate on a Tuesday night. I would have figured that he would follow Abbott's lead in going with Friday night debates so no one watches. But then again Cruz surprises in that he will put himself out there even when he knows its not his audience. Like when he played Jimmy Kimmel in basketball.

100%. Embrace the right talking points, throw in sex for whoever makes FN personnel decisions, and profit.

0.01% this happened. If it did occur then this guy is worst story teller in the history of the world. He had the option to add the complete narrative of how they approached him, what they said, and more of their reactions to his heroic action. He can't tell a story after >11K posts on tigerdroppings? If there was any incident, it's more like the following. 1-2 guys walked up to him at a construction site. Not 4 guys. The hero of the story is wearing a spotless dress shirt driving a pickup that has never been used as a pickup. The guy(s) asks if there is any work available. Looking for an honest wage for a hard day of work. The hero draws his guns tell the guy(s) to go back to Haitia because he doesn't want no Spanish speaking illegals on his work site. They walk away happy that they didn't have to endure working for him. (Note, I'm 100% aware that Haitians don't normally speak Spanish and def don't have a Spanish accent.)

Agree that bad news for Gaetz can hurt Trump in Florida. of course I’m starting to believe that gop scandals actually help them because most of their base believe it’s fake media and they need to vote to demonstrate their distrust of media.

He wins his district by 30+ points each election. He’s not going anywhere.

I was only joining about Jordan running in NC. First he’s notoriously apolitical and I’m sure he has zero desire to be governor of nc. I will work on my words to be more obvious about my intent.

There are reports that NC has laws that could allow the gop to replace Robinson if he resigns between now and Election Day. Any vote for him would go to the next nominee. There is something about posting info at all voting locations what occurs if they vote for Robinson. still I have to think any gop candidate is going to lose. Unless they convince Michael Jordan to run.

If the Robinson story leak was really an attempt by some in the state GOP to get him to quit, they obviously waited too late to get the story out. Resigning takes days if not a week. He wasn’t going to quit within hours.

Would love to see Rupert lose this case so he can’t control Fox News from beyond the grave. Not to mention that Fox News could effectively change direction any day now. SIAP, why Rupert can’t decide today who runs Fox News after his death is because he set up this structure when divorcing his second wife in the 90s. He gave his then 4 children future control including the daughter from an earlier marriage. I’ve read the later two daughters, by Wendi Deng, get equal financial benefits but no control over Fox News. They’re excluded from the NV lawsuit.

CNN brought the receipts that it's him posting on all of those sites. Unless he had someone intentionally impersonating him for 20+ years on these sites, well before he was publicly known, it's him. Like others have said, I worry there is a chance that someone sane will replace him on the ballot, which may help Trump and get the GOP in the governor's seat. Too bad CNN didn't wait a couple of more weeks. Perhaps there was someone else about the break the story as well. I'm sure the NCGOP is currently filing a suit in Judge Reed O'Connor's federal district right now to update the ballots ASAP. (Just kidding)

so you're saying there is a chance his numbers may go up in certain areas of NC?

Have we passed all NC deadlines to change the governor candidates?

In this scenario, the only deal that should be pursued is the following: Trump admits he lost in 2020 and 2024. In a press conference standing next to Biden and Harris. Asks his supporters to accept this as fact. Pleads guilty to all of the current federal crimes. Can't this eliminate the possibility of appeals? Biden commutes his sentence on his last day. Therefore he's a federal felon but he just doesn't have to serve time in federal prison. This would be a huge win for Dems. It would throw some in the GOP in disarray that Trump abandoned them.

Harris wins 400 EVs while taking Texas? Abbott and Paxton would arrest every Harris county and Houston official the next day. turn those machines back on.

I could see that more as a post-election day idea. I don't see it happening but the small remote chance of Trump agreeing to admit he lost in exchange Harris or Biden agree to pardon him.

I have zero doubt that Trump will come out ahead in selling that stock, and others will be left holding the back when the stock ultimately drops to $0. It's just like how Trump supporters bet their life on the 2020 prediction markets that Trump would win.

but but when I went to bed at 1am Trump was easily winning PA. Then when I woke up, somehow Biden had more votes. I saw a video of a vote counter pulling out a box of ballots from under her desk. It was rigged. Saw it with my own eyes. Do your research. 😀

DJT down to <$15 per share. Which is still a market cap of $3B in which the revenue and growth do not even remotely support. Insiders like Trump or Devin Nunes are believed to be able to start selling their share as early as this afternoon. I'm uncertain of the exact time.

For Harris to surpass 400 EVs, she would need to win every swing state along with TX, FL and OH. I haven't seen any evidence that today supports this as a strong possibility. Impossible? No. Likely, No. The big problem with Trump and polling is the Trump voters who understand they have zero defense in voting for him. They just will give him their vote but they won't admit it to anyone. They definitely won't tell a pollster.

The Republicans that know Trump's policies are bad refuse to speak up. At best they will go with the, "what Trump really meant..."

Forget stop issuing the cards. They would immediately lower all credit limits if not terminate any new charges, if banks could only charge 10%.
