Functionality is lacking. It blocks and separates the thread. Stuff to the side is ok, not within the thread. Stuff at the bottom is not good either. mspart

And so she can wag her finger and say, I'm talking now. It is my turn to talk. That's why they want the mics hot. mspart

She has done no pressers nor interviews since she assumed the mantle before the DNC, that's 37 days (5weeks), more than a month. https://www.foxnews.com/media/kamala-harris-grants-first-interview-cnn-after-weeks-avoiding-press-joined-tim-walz She has not had to explain her positions or answer any questions. It is all related. They are keeping her hidden for as long as possible for whatever reason you can imagine. Why else would she not do a presser or interview? They are scared for her to open her mouth. Obviously she is trying to derail the debates with Trump. So they are related. Her handlers do not want her out in the public square speaking. Because she does not do well when speaking. Examples: It is time for us to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day. Every day, it is time for us to agree that there are things and tools that are available to us to slow this thing down. Our election is about understanding the importance of this beautiful country of ours in terms of what we stand for around the globe as a democracy. As a democracy, we know there's a duality to the nature of democracy. On the one hand, incredible strength when it is intact. What it does for its people, to protect and defend their rights. Incredibly strong. And incredibly fragile. It is only as strong as our willingness to fight for it. And that's what this campaign is about. What can be, unburdened by what has been. You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you. I love Venn diagrams. I really do, I love Venn diagrams. It’s just something about those three circles and the analysis about where there is the intersection, right? I love Venn diagrams. Always ask, Is there a Venn diagram for this? I’m telling you, it’s fascinating when you do. So, Venn diagram, those three circles, right? I don’t know what’s wrong with you young people, you think you just fell out of a coconut tree. You exist in the context of all in which you live and what you came before you. Who doesn’t love a yellow school bus, right? Can you raise your hand if you love a yellow school bus? Many of us went to school on the yellow school bus, right? It’s part of our experience growing up. It’s part of a nostalgia, a memory of the excitement and joy of going to school to be with your favorite teacher, to be with your best friends and to learn. The school bus takes us there. So, I think it’s very important, as you have heard from so many incredible leaders, for us at every moment in time — and certainly this one — to see the moment in time in which we exist and are present, and to be able to contextualize it, to understand where we exist in the history and in the moment as it relates not only to the past but the future. Yes, this is what her handlers are very very afraid of. With good reason. She sounds like an idiot talking to all of us idiots out here, at least she apparently thinks we are all idiots. She thinks she sounds profound, when it is anything but that. So yes, the debate, the interviews, the pressers are all part of the same fear. Kamala might speak and say something really stupid. In fact, they have no doubt that she will. Hence the request for notes at the ABC debate. She is running for President and has been in the admin for 3.5 years, what does she need notes for? She supposedly has lived it all. Or has she? She is the most unprepared nonintellectual ever to run for president. And her handlers fear that will come out and us idiots out in the hinterlands might actually see it and make an informed decision. Just my opinion. mspart

She has reached out to media asking who she should be interviewed by - In other words, pressure is getting enough that she is finally talking about doing an interview and wants the media person that will throw all softball questions and no serious questions. Yah, she ain't afraid of nothing. mspart

Not sure about 2025. We are supposed to be all electric vehicle by 2050. Someone has it wrong it looks like!! mspart

Strategically as in 4 more years of the same thing we have had the last 4 years as opposed to Trump? Or idealistically as in Kamala's people say she has changed and that is good enough for me, glad Biden isn't going to be there anymore and even though the last four years have been tough, they are better than when Trump was in there? mspart

Now only GA, PA, WI, MI, NV, NC need to follow suit. I think AZ has done so already. mspart

I am not seeing them so much now. Thanks Bob mspart

It looks like someone did not do due diligent stress analysis on that turbine blade for it to break so soon. Or materials were of low quality. It is not easy, but very do able. There is a matter of ultimate strength, tensile strength, and fatigue analysis due to all the repetitious revolutions. As I understand it, it was the railroads that provided the new science of material fatigue as tracks and wheels were breaking all the time. mspart

That's a bargain considering the fate of the world is at stake. mspart

But the media is trying to make it look like Trump is blinking. Who blinks, the person who demands new rules or the one who says the current rules are fine? mspart

Good article. Good read. https://jonathanturley.org/2024/08/27/democrats-lose-effort-to-block-cornel-west-from-michigan-ballot/ For months, we have been discussing the concerted effort of Democrats to bar challengers to President Joe Biden from primary ballots and block third-party candidates like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Cornel West from appearing on the November ballots. As both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris insisted that “Democracy is on the ballot,” their allies sought to deny the ability of voters to cast their ballots for other candidates. Now, a state judge has issued a stinging denial of the effort of Democratic officials to block West from the Michigan ballots. Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson helped lead the effort to prevent citizens from being able to vote for West in Michigan. Judge James Robert Redford issued the ruling days after West was kicked off the ballot due to technical issues. West issued a statement: “Victory in Michigan! We brought thousands of voices to the table, and the court listened, rejecting the Democrats’ technical challenges. This is a win for democracy and for every person fighting for truth, justice, and love. Onward!” He is running with Black Lives Matter co-founder Melina Abdullah. Democrats are still pushing to strip them from the ballots in other states to prevent voters from having a choice in the election. Another such effort failed in Maine recently. The press and pundits have been largely silent about this effort despite the glaring contradiction with the campaign rhetoric of the DNC on saving democracy from imminent destruction. The media does not appear at all alarmed or critical of the effort to limit democratic choice. The Washington Post stated clinically “Democrats are taking third-party threats seriously this time.” Taking it seriously appears to mean using legal means to keep them from the ballots. It is true that the main political parties have challenged qualification signatures and paperwork in the past. However, the reports indicate a systemic effort geared toward reducing the choices for voters. What is striking is that this is coming from democratic groups and the DNC, which are raising money on the “save democracy” narrative. The contradiction is spellbinding. On the same sites promising to oppose the third party candidates, the DNC and other groups push the narrative that only the Democrats are working to protect the right to vote. The Post reports that Democrats have studied the Hillary Clinton campaign and vowed not to allow third party candidates to drain away millions of voters as they did in 2016. This well-funded campaign to block other candidates is continuing. It was cited by Kennedy as one of the reasons that he pulled out of the race and endorsed former president Donald Trump. West is now a threat with independents looking for an alternative to Trump and Harris. West has long been a charismatic figure in academia. Decades ago, I was his editor on what may have been his first law review publication as a young, rising divinity professor at Princeton. One does not have to support Trump, West, or the other third-party opponents to find this effort repulsive. While some of us have challenged that hyperbolic claim that this “may be our last election,” the one thing that may not be on the ballot is choice, if the self-appointed defenders of Democracy have anything to say about it. I added the bold and underlined at the end here. Any open fair minded individual can see that the Ds are not doing this to protect democracy. They are doing this to protect themselves at the expense of democracy. This is insidious and as noted, is not being reported widely. Again, I say media is the enemy of the people as they are constantly showing themselves to be. mspart

It's about time to stop the lawlessness of this admin. mspart

I noticed this too just now. mspart

Interesting, they protected Biden for years, got caught at the debate, but keep on keeping on with Kamala, even though months ago they were saying she was a liability. The media is in the tank for the Ds and will do anything to protect them as is obvious by now. mspart

How to think critically about what the media is telling you?

Taxpayer money paying for homes for undocumented. That's right, the poor stupid citizens are not eligible for this program. You must be undocumented to get the money but need not thank those stupid citizens that paid the freight. This is against all sorts of civil liberty legislation. mspart

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/2024/08/26/trump-harris-hot-microphones-mute-threat-to-skip-tv-debate/ Mr Miller went on to claim that the Harris campaign have also requested that the candidates be seated for the debate, allowed to use notes and deliver opening statements. Along with hot mics so she can say, "I'm speaking now" multiple times during the debate. So she wants to change the rules for the ABC debate completely. What a coward!! mspart
