LOL: Don LeMon Hires as His Crisis Communications Flack Allison Gollust, the Woman Who Was Having the Affair With Jeff Zucker and Got the Ancien Regime Made Ancient
Re: The "conservative news alternative" Fox News, lol:
Don Lemon made a bold move in the crucial moment after learning his fate at CNN. The television veteran, 57, hired Allison Gollust to handle his crisis communications after being told he had been fired from the network after 17 years. If Allison's name sounds familiar, that's because she got ousted by CNN after RadarOnline.com blew the lid off her secret affair with the cable network's then-boss, Jeff Zucker.
Is that true? I dunno. According to Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson isn't officially fired yet. They're working out the settlement. What I hear Fox is that Fox is refusing to pay him a settlement for firing him, becaue they claim he quit. They are willing to pay him, though. They are attempting to tell him that he has to continue taking his salary -- but remain off the air for the final two years of his contract. They are claiming that they still have him under contract and that he can't go out and do his own show as long as they keep paying him. They want to pay him not to compete with them.

@kylenabecker This just in: According to leaked court documents from the Fox News-Dominion lawsuit, Paul Ryan was a driving force behind the network's drive to play down 2020 election fraud allegations and to 'move on from Trump' Catturd @catturd2 · 12h
According to a Fox insider -- not my source, but relayed through one person and then another -- Tucker Carlson wanted to rebut the 60 Minutes Ray Epps "story," which directly called Tucker Carlson a conspiracy theorist and inciter of violence. A Fox executive producer told him he was not allowed to do that. That's what caused Carlson to quit. Now, an interesting wrinkle, per this source, is that Tucker's contract specifically forbade Fox News from interfering with his show, which they obviously violated, putting them in breach of contract by doing what his contract says they can't do. Supposedly, this non-interference clause would make them possibly liable to both lose Tucker Carlson and get a most of his remaining salary. But again, Fox is arguing that he just has to sit on the sidelines to get his money, paid to Not Be On TV. I wish I could get that deal! I'd be great at Not Being On TV! I have a virtually spotless record of Not Being On TV! Even when I was on TV, they bumped me to show a tank stuck in the mud! Obviously my part of that reporting is very sketchy, relying on a friend of a friend of a friend stuff. Only take my claims as fodder for conversation. Incidentally, I don't know if it's anywhere near true that a single breach means you get the full contract payment. But I don't know. Carlson may have invoked that clause and this Fox executive, we know, still forbade him doing his show as he wanted, telling him, effectively, that she was voiding his contract on her authority. Maybe that would entitle someone to a payout of the terms of the contract.

ABC Hospital Drama the GOOD DOCTOR
The autistic doctor, who’s the main character on the show, correctly identifies the male patient as a male while everyone around him is in acute denial of reality.
This clip will leave you laughing so hard you might need to see a Dr, also I think they were trying to top NBC and their Roe vs Wade episode

That's going to be tough for him. He can probably extract big money - bigger than his contract would indicate - if he takes that deal. But if he does it, he will be irrelevant. Two years is a *long* time to remain out of sight and rebuilding after that long will be very, very hard.

If this is true, I smell a lawsuit followed by an out-of-court settlement. If he had a non-interference clause and he can prove they interfered - Epps, Jan 20, the vax, whatever - then they're in breach (unless the non-interference clause is weak and offers no real protections).
I suspect there will be a settlement if this is the case. Fox will balk, Tucker will sue, they will settle for 75% or 80% of the contract value, nobody admits guilt, the terms are private, and Fox provides the seed money for Carlson's next venture.

Bill O'Reilly is saying his internal sources at FoxNews are reporting Tucker was fired because of incoming lawsuits to Fox, one of which is Ray Epps. Supposedly 3 in total.
No idea if that's true or not, just thought I'd pass it along.
Fox was incredibly stupid to settle that Dominion lawsuit. Everyone is going to start suing FoxNews and these NYC juries will probably just rubberstamp eye watering amounts of money.
But Lachlan Murdoch will get a pat on the back at his next dinner party.

In the blue hellhole where I currently reside, the rule is that a contract breach has to be "material" to excuse the other side's non-performance. Arguably, Fox honchos interfering with Carlson's show could be big enough to call the whole thing off, but that's likely going to be something for the lawyers to hash out.

"According to leaked court documents . . . ."
What is a "leaked" court document? Civil court proceedings are public. All documents filed or entered in the case are available publicly, and usually via on-line services. Unless the defamation case was under seal -- which is highly unlikely and would raise red flags if it were -- then court documents can't be "leaked." Anyone can access them.

SO many rumors out there about what's really going on. We probably won't know for a while, sadly. But the theories are fun.
One head scratching theory is the Murdoch kids want to sell Fox, so they want him out so another liberal will be willing to buy it. But dramatically firing their top show runner is causing people to unsubscribe from fox nation en masse and is tanking their stock price. You don't sell after you've tanked your new channel's max price. Unless they just don't care about the money and politics is more important.

Re contract violation on interference, it would be under NY law and a lot of recent agreements have a mandatory arbitration clause.
But, essentially, the money Fox is offering is chump change for the remaining years compared with Tucker's ability to move to streaming platforms and monetize his brand.
Rupert and Lachlan must be gutting the organization prior to selling it--only problem is that they are picking the worst possible time to dump a cable network. Disney is in the toilet, CBS ain't looking too good either under the Redstones. Warner Bros/Discovery is retrenching already, and NBC already has a cable network.
So Bezos? NYT/Carlos Slim?

Based on his speech Friday, there is no way he will stay off the air. He made strong statements about telling the truth no matter what. My guess is he will not be silenced. I just hope he still has access to the J6 video and makes a deal to go public with it. His producer also left which makes me think this will happen.

Supposedly, this non-interference clause would make them possibly liable to both lose Tucker Carlson and get a most of his remaining salary. But again, Fox is arguing that he just has to sit on the sidelines to get his money, paid to Not Be On TV.

Which also sounds like interference in his show, in that they are preventing the show he was contracted to do from airing.

"Incidentally, I don't know if it's anywhere near true that a single breach means you get the full contract payment."
Highly unlikely. A sufficiently "material" breach of a contract could entitle you to full payment, but those are very rare in long-term contracts like this. These type of entertainment contracts are very complicated, probably run a 100 pages, and specifically delineate exactly what's a breach and what isn't, and what the remedies for that breach are.
Also: I would be shocked if the contract doesn't include substantial oversight and review and approval by the network of Tucker's show's content. That would be standard. No network is gonna allow its host to praise Hitler or run segments on how cannibalism is a great idea.

These type of entertainment contracts are very complicated, probably run a 100 pages, and specifically delineate exactly what's a breach and what isn't, and what the remedies for that breach are.

Per Mediaite, viewership of Tucker's former timeslot dropped from 3.1 million to 2.6 million on Monday. Still good enough to win that hour, but the reduced lead-in meant that--*giggle*--Hannity lost the 9 p.m. slot to Rachel Maddow, 2.7 million to 2.5 million.

You don't sell after you've tanked your new channel's max price. Unless they just don't care about the money and politics is more important.
Politics is more important. Also, dumping Tucker before the sale makes the network somewhat more palatable to would-be buyers. It's unlikely they'll ever not be the left's go-to punching bag though, even if they hire Don LeMon.

From an HR perspective, it sounds like we have the employment lawyers on both sides combing over the contract. Per the rumors, Fox originally said they fired for cause so don’t have to pay, which would be true except they then lose control of what Tucker does. Oops! Take 2, he quit! We don’t have to pay but he is bound by his terms (prob non disparagement clause, etc) because it’s voluntary. Out of extreme benevolence, we will pay and it has nothing to do with covering any weakness with unreasonableness in our non-compete. Trust us!
Other side- wait a minute, I see I am not being harmed financially now, but this could harm my earning potential in the future. That is, in fact, unreasonable. Also, your over zealous exec violated the terms of this agreement, so we do have a club in which we can proverbially whack you over the head with, you don’t hold all the cards, Fox.
I kinda miss what I used to do before becoming the exercise guru to the stars. 😃

I wonder if we’ll ever get the true story. I’m betting TuCa is out of commission for the 2024 election cycle. TPTB can’t have a prominent personality talking truth about J6 and Epps and Covid fake vaxes and the Ukraine war and tranny mental illness… and even making speeches about the spiritual elements of these issues (and prayer)! The other so-called conservatives on Fox will not upset those establishment narratives (Hannity, Ingraham, Gutfeld, etc)
I really don't think he'll accept that "deal" for the simple reason that every time he goes on the air now, any air, and tells Fox to get bent, his future earnings potential increases further. He's already the most prominent conservative commentator, and now he can build on that lead. As has been said, it isn't like he's going to be living in a box under the overpass for the near future. He has all the time he needs.

And since I am throwing out free advice here, Don Lemon should save his money and not hire anyone right now. He is toxic. He is not going to command the same earning potential and should save his shekels. He is probably going to need them.

Nobody made Ray Epps wander around like a kid on the spectrum, barge into people's conversations to promote trespass
...
unless somebody did.
But IF nobody made him do that, and people have him on camera promoting the very act that people are being held in prison for--when he said he orchestrated it, how did he not defame himself? How did he not put the spotlight on himself?
Out of NY or DC, I would welcome his asinine suit.

Eventually LFG got kudos in the New York Times for the story and linked to it. But by then bike boy had gone lefty and the 'hat tip' person had soured on Chuck so Chuck had to reroute the NYT link to a different story.

here is a sample of replies
PBM 12 hours ago
The obsession on the right with Ukraine is amazing display of irrationality. You ought at least to consider that as long as Putin keeps them busy they do not have as much time or resources to devote to those they consider their worst enemies: you and me. As for myself, helping Ukraine is just the right thing to do in itself and secondly to dissuade Russia from going after the Baltics and possibly to dissuade Beijing from going after Taiwan. If the Biden junta is doing it because they are being paid off, I don't particularly care.

So this is a really stupid chain of inference.
Michel Foucault told all the revolutionaries that words don't mean things, that they are only a means to manipulate you and assign power.
So, you may think you are just using words, but Foucault has convinced them (oddly enough through words he wrote) that words are a form of aggression against them if they don't like their implications.
Thus they escalate the "aggression" they interpret to another word "violence" to basically get you back at your own game. Because then as the victim of violence, they have power over you. And words can only apportion power.
How that doesn't mean that Foucault was just fucking with them all in his books is beyond me.

Government’s National Security Arm Took Charge During the Covid Response
In previous articles I discussed the probability that Deborah Birx, the White House Coronoavirus Task Force Coordinator, was not a representative of the public health agencies but, rather, was appointed by the National Security Council. I now have proof that this was, indeed, the case.

You know, as our 'every story is about Trump v Desantis' thing is entering it's... adolescence, something that has always bugged me.
What seems odd to me about the visceral reaction a lot of people have to Trump is that it reminds me a lot of the visceral reaction a lot of people had to Palin. Note: I am not defending either Trump or Palin here. What I am trying to do is describe a phenomena I have observed.
1) Do not like Trump/Palin.
2) Come up with reasons AFTER that to continue and support not liking Trump/Palin.
I could get into gender or class or whatever it is that causes the reaction, but I am just observing what I have seen. I have never quite gotten it. On the other hand, I have never quite gotten the love the individuals engender, either.

The kids didn't build anything, they just had it handed to them, so of course they don't value it. Getting to sit at the cool kid's table is their top priority.
As to Rupert, it's an interesting take. Most people start thinking about getting right with God as mortality approaches.

Rupert is a mean ole SOB that got his empire by treating others like shit and reportedly blackmailing people. He is the thinly disguised villain in a lot of movies and tv series based on rumors of his behavior. Fierce Creatures is one such buffonish portrayal. He was even a villain in a BBC Sherlock Holmes episode. Succession is another when you combine his story with Sumner Redstone. You can find more if you want to.

It will be an interesting race.

FEMA replaced HHS as the Lead Federal Agency, with no warning or preparation
What Zimmerman is saying here is that, in the PanCAP-A org chart, where the NSC is in charge of policy and the HHS is in charge of almost everything else – actually, FEMA is in charge of everything else.
This means that, in effect, starting on March 18, 2020, the HHS –which comprises the CDC, NIAID, NIH and other public-health-related agencies – had NO OFFICIAL LEADERSHIP ROLE in pandemic response – not in determining policy and not in implementing policy.
This is a staggering piece of information, considering that all pandemic preparedness plans, as Zimmerman notes, placed the Health and Human Services Agency (HHS) at the helm of pandemic response.

Rupert is a mean ole SOB that got his empire by treating others like shit and reportedly blackmailing people. He is the thinly disguised villain in a lot of movies and tv series based on rumors of his behavior. Fierce Creatures is one such buffonish portrayal. He was even a villain in a BBC Sherlock Holmes episode. Succession is another when you combine his story with Sumner Redstone. You can find more if you want to.

What seems odd to me about the visceral reaction a lot of people have to Trump is that it reminds me a lot of the visceral reaction a lot of people had to Palin. Note: I am not defending either Trump or Palin here. What I am trying to do is describe a phenomena I have observed.
1) Do not like Trump/Palin.
2) Come up with reasons AFTER that to continue and support not liking Trump/Palin.
I could get into gender or class or whatever it is that causes the reaction, but I am just observing what I have seen. I have never quite gotten it.

I think some of it is like not wanting a quarterback to be put in that you know is going to blow the game for your team.
I think it became abundantly clear Palin would only lose elections, just like she showed recently in Alaska. So conservatives wanted her gone.
Do I think she was mistreated? Yes, but I'm not interested in martyrs.
I see Trump in the same light. I have zero doubt he loses if he's the nominee. and I think deep down, even his most vocal supporters know that also but want to do it anyway.

I hope Don Lemon is offered a spot on MSNBC. And hopefully in a prime time spot. He was with Lawrence O'Donnell my favorites
Yeah, fuck him, he's a blatant woman hater, shitcan him for good
That is not true!!!! He's 100% Dem
The facts don't support that. He's worked well with women for years, and many who know them refute even the much milder charges being made at this time.
However, he has not tempered his behavior to an era when extreme intolerance and taking offense at anything seen as disrespectful is believed by some to not just be justified but principled.
He wasn't "canceled" for not being perfect; he was sacked for being a misogynistic, sexist diva for such a long time that even CNN's management couldn't take any more of it. He thinks 51 is too old for a woman to run for president

Because Willowed, and because funding is an issue, I brought this forward:
Part of the problem is expecting revenue from Youtube vids. As far as I am concerned, they are freely provided by their authors, who simply want to share some knowledge or entertainment out of the kindness of their hearts. I have never given Dime One to any Youtuber, and I either block the ads, scroll over, or quit the video if those don't work.
But here is an idea for a payment system I could support. Call it "PayAnon". You buy a prepaid Visa card from a store that sells such things. It has a number, right? PayAnon is simply an encrypted comms link, through which you transmit the card number and donation amount to the recipient. Recipient makes the draw, and sends back through the link, "got it, bro. Thanks". Would work for making donations here, too. Using pre-paid cards would limit your risk.

Class is part of it along with SES. Upper classes are more repulsed by what they regard as outre behavior; lower classes are more transactional regarding politics and don't give a shit about outre behavior. That is why in inner cities, the business community often likes one type of candidate who resembles them in tastes, speech, and class markers and the voters like the in your face type.
Note that a lot of esteemed literary Romans did not like Caesar much prior to his death and it was no coincidence that Brutus who came from an aristocratic pedigree of yore was in on the plot to get rid of him.

I remember reading an article by Tucker where Trump left him a voicemail insulting his bow tie and lack of sexual prowess, and even then he laughed at it and didn't take it seriously, so Trump and Tucker being on good terms rings true especially if you understand native New Yorkers. They will insult you with every word in the dictionary and then buy you drinks afterwards.

Between the Dominion settlement in a case based on thin grounds (with a high hurdle for "malice") and how the Tuca firing was handled, I'd say Fox Team Legal is not sending their best.

No, I don't think so. What's been lost, to some degree, are men.
I remember this vividly in my own life. A high school buddy of mine was back in town. It had been many years since any of us had spoken or visited. He invited me and a few other guys over to catch up and have a beer. It was fun.
His little sister was there and she commented, "guys really are different. This would never happen with me and my friends. We'd be upset that we didn't talk for so long and we'd probably just fight if all got together again at the spur of the moment."
Stuck with me.

Trump is super frustrating. He has good instincts at times and get there is a fight going on which puts him above 95% of the GOP. Unfortunately he surrounds himself with the absolute worst personnel and has a tendency to shoot allies due to his thin skin. All in all I'd prefer him as kingmaker, not candidate. Having said that, his new drop about firing govt employees made it move.

Funnily enough, Carlson has retained LeMon's attorney in his own battle against Fox. Some big shot entertainment lawyer who specializes in these contract clawbacks. So this Freedman guy will be sinking his teeth into CNN and Fox simultaneously.
I hope is the best lawyer ever. I hope he's so good that both CNN and Fox are bankrupted and Lemon and Tucker get to light the pyres for Zaslav's and Murdoch's auto-da-fes, while a bipartisan crowd consumes the living flesh of hundreds of net execs in a bloodsoaked bacchanal.

Democrats *tried* to cheat The Hag into office by not calling PA. For HOURS.
I believe they had the mechanism in place to pull a 2020 and they would have if PA could have flipped the result. Then when Wisconsin came in, where they had no such mechanism because they assumed Trump would not win it, that was it.
They decided that was never ever going to happen again. Doesn't mean they won't let an R in, he just won't be a good one.

Speaking of which, Bernie endorsed Joey today.
That strengthens the theory that Tucker was fired to clear the decks for the election (and Don Lemon was opportunistic stray voltage).

I'm not Pollyanna, I think any Republican has a steep uphill climb. I just know Trump loses and the campaign will be dominated by silly drama.

Among our distant ancestors, men cooperated to hunt. Bitchy little feuds would have disrupted the hunt and could result in dead hunters and no mammoth meat. Women have not evolved to cooperate in the same way.
Men: "There's a leopard in that tree!" "I see it!" "Mong, you're the best with a spear!" "I'm on it!"
Women: "There's a leopard in that tree!" "There is?" "I don't see it." "Are you sure it's a leopard and not a jaguar?" "I don't trust that Sandorna, she was bitchy to me the other day. How do we know it's a leopard?"

Trump is super frustrating. He has good instincts at times and get there is a fight going on which puts him above 95% of the GOP. Unfortunately he surrounds himself with the absolute worst personnel and has a tendency to shoot allies due to his thin skin. All in all I'd prefer him as kingmaker, not candidate. Having said that, his new drop about firing govt employees made it move.

He's always been inconsistent.
I watched him for years on The Apprentice. He had a bad of principles and he would pull out whatever one he felt like for the "explanation".
He likes win-win, but "sometimes you have to screw 'em". He likes loyalty, so he'll keep loyalty to somebody for longer than you think it makes sense, but he'll turn on somebody else.
Despite all that I saw wrong with Trump, he surprised me as President. He knew how to use controversy to direct the press to spotlight the issue and prove him right.

SWA, simply put, Trump is the odds on favorite at this time and South Carolina is an important state that Lindsay repeatedly wins (he inherited the old Strom Thurmond network). Same with Ronna etc. Trump is trying to make peace with the GOPe because he is essentially a deal maker and has picked the inside track to win.
DeSantis appeals to a different type which is more ideological--e.g. trans wars, choosing a target and freezing it like Disney, etc. Appealing to the upper class that feels they can support him without embarrassment to others unlike Trump or Palin for example. Very smart and disciplined with a tight knit political operation in Fla. But, whether he can create a broader coalition and whether his six weeks abortion law and trans focus hurts him with college educated women is anyone's guess right now.
In sum, do not believe in perfect candidates-they all have warts and histories behind them and ultimately if a 'fair' election was held, it would be binary choice between jello brain Biden and anybody else.
Instead of worrying bout DeSantis and Trump, I would suggest working to fix voting rolls in your home state.

Because I recall that being part of Real Old School Man Behavior too. Having to settle things the old way if you insisted on running that mouth and someone got tired of it.

Verbally? (looks at calendar, then at watch)

So how do you explain VA? If the elections were rigged, how did Republicans sweep the state in 2021?
I think at least some portion of the margin Trump loses is legitimate. Mainly because I know Republicans that won't vote for Trump and refused in 2020. They do though regularly vote for conservative Republicans. That's not "rigged" it's a real phenomenon.
Republican leaning independents dont like Trump anymore.

People act like 2020 was the first time fraud got injected into our elections.
There is no candidate that "fixed" voter fraud. But we have seen how poorly Trump and his team litigated it.
And that Trump has never lifted a finger on actually shoring up election integrity. Which imo is more ammunition that even he doesnt really believe in the claims he makes.

DeSantis appeals to a different type which is more ideological--e.g. trans wars, choosing a target and freezing it like Disney, etc. Appealing to the upper class that feels they can support him without embarrassment to others unlike Trump or Palin for example. Very smart and disciplined with a tight knit political operation in Fla. But, whether he can create a broader coalition and whether his six weeks abortion law and trans focus hurts him with college educated women is anyone's guess right now.
In sum, do not believe in perfect candidates-they all have warts and histories behind them and ultimately if a 'fair' election was held, it would be binary choice between jello brain Biden and anybody else.
Instead of worrying bout DeSantis and Trump, I would suggest working to fix voting rolls in your home state.

I can see some people fervently supporting this or that candidate and cut some slack because pols are good actors (see Ryan for example) and if you don't have much contact with them, you don't notice how they say one thing to you and do quite another.
I support causes nowadays at the local and state levels, not politicians. The best way to outflank the pols and party apparatus is go outside them and use that to pressure the pols into doing what is right. Never, Never, depend on them fixing what got them their posts.

If so, how?

He's a Democrat through and through. It's really just vaccines that he's against.
He is no Tucker.

He went off on the CIA, FBI, deep state in his announcement speech so I think he sees the problem with the deep state.
The guns thing is kinda the hill I die on (metaphorically hopefully) so I don't see myself voting for him, and i'm not anti-vax just anti this vax...

Instead of worrying bout DeSantis and Trump, I would suggest working to fix voting rolls in your home state.

Much as I appreciate you taking the time to respond, I feel it was a bit condescending. Making my opinion known on this blog may not reach a terribly wide audience, but I feel I have something to contribure to the conversation so No, I will not stop talking about Trump and DeSantis.
I want a primary where they go toe to toe. I want them to earn my vote. Those trying to kayo DeSantis' possible candidacy before it happens keeps that from happening. We should want to know who is the best candidate, the most electable in an environment where it is extremely difficult to overcome the Dem machine.
It is those who don;t think any Republican candidate can win who should be most invested in getting the message across any way possible and that is certainly a primary between the top candidates.

If he could make the turn to realize the climate thing is the same as the vax strategy and its all bullshit and come around on guns...
So, if he were a Democrat that didn't support the majority of Dem policy positions, you could support him? Oddly, not many Dems supported Jeb!, despite his support of many DEM policies....

510 You can't ask for evidence and then say that what I give you doesn't count. You can say it's not enough to make a conclusion--I definitely agree with that--but 90% of all political calculations are at least partly based on polling. It has to count.

It's like pointing to a magic trick to prove that bunnies are born from hats.
Polling is so thoroughly broken, and has been for years just getting worse as time goes on (not just for bias reasons, but for a few major data collection reasons mostly), that quoting polling as evidence is more of a punchline than actual support.
If someone could tell me how we could verify a presidential approval poll with the reality of how much America likes or dislikes a president, I'm all ears.

I remember this vividly in my own life. A high school buddy of mine was back in town. It had been many years since any of us had spoken or visited. He invited me and a few other guys over to catch up and have a beer. It was fun.
His little sister was there and she commented, "guys really are different. This would never happen with me and my friends. We'd be upset that we didn't talk for so long and we'd probably just fight if all got together again at the spur of the moment."
Stuck with me.

Recently did a similar thing. My aunt ran into an old buddy of mine from over 30 years ago and gave him my number. After some phone tag, we had a long lunch where we caught up on things. Great fun to talk about the old party days. Except for the part where he mentioned that there are apparently PHOTOS of our hijinks. And he has copies.

Some want Trump some want DeSantis. A Trump/DeSantis tickets lets both win. Two to four years of a good economy, low inflation and DeSantis is a shoe in to 'stay the course'.
I know the issue with the fraud. I also know the issue with voter apathy which is the only way the fraud succeeds. In my state there is a limit to the number or percentage of votes that Philly can manufacture.
Rumors that Trump is 'listening' to people about DeSantis as Veep is slightly encouraging.

In fairness, he did *try* to do just that. He set up a commission to work on election integrity with the states.
The states - Dem and Rep alike - told him to pound sand. Elections are state business, his commission had no authority, and they refused to participate.
The states were within their rights to do so, and they did. It went nowhere. Now beyond that, did he tell the GOP to get busy on election reform at the state level? If he did, did they listen? I'll bet "no" on both counts.

For example, AZ had a great ballot proposition to change this. Trump didn't donate a penny or even talk about it.
Again, if you really believes the election was stolen because of fraud, wouldn't this be your main cause.
Trump raised like a $100 million, why not give a few million to issues like this?
Or even bankroll lawsuits that took on ballot harvesting?
Trump has done jack shit which tells me he doesn't believe it.
And if Trump is running again, he clearly thinks all of this can be overcome.

Maybe, a fair number of politicians are like Justice Kavanaugh. They have a plan and stick to it to climb the greasy pole of politics. Remember how Kavanaugh had detailed accounts of what he did every day--that sort of discipline can serve one well in almost never making a mistake.
But, that type often comes off as cold---aka the often quoted and seldom seen movie Elections created a stereotype Tracey Flick as example. That does not make DeSantis a bad candidate--but it does limit the personal (not policy) appeal of such to minorities and lower class voters.
Trump has a personal constituency among a lot of folks that are GOP resistant and I don't think that is transferrable to others.

But its biggest draw is that it will force the dems to cheat harder than before. You thought 82 million votes for a dementia-addled corpse was hilarious? Just wait until they push it to 100 million.

An armed public can only be governed by consent. If it ceases consenting, you'll realize it pretty quickly.

Obviously untrue given a stolen 2020 presidential election

551 Because congressional races were not equally competitive in va and abortion was on the national ballot after roe and graham. Last i checked, va gained an r seat.

This sure sounds like, "I'm right even though the evidence shows I'm wrong."
So, there's more to Trump? Democrats just have to scream about abortion loud enough and they can win the statewide vote in VA?
Well, I guess we're going to be hearing a lot about abortion in 2024.

Not enough of the public believed it was stolen. The NeverTrumpers really want to believe that all of those fundamentally insecure mail votes were real.

That, and racism. Gun control and climate change aren't polling too well for them.

Gun owners in the main are conservatives and the vast majority of them certainly voted for Trump. NeverTrumpers are a very small minority and really don’t factor into any calculation.
The idea that gun owners will protect the Republic is simply wrong.

Paul Ryan was also the acclaimed financial wizard who would right the federal government's boat and all would be well, so we needed him as Speakah.
Also, Asa's line is Trump bad because indictments and J6 and different direction when it really boils down to Trump said pussy in one way or another. Empty false statements all the way down.

I'm sorry, I find it to be excruciatingly absurd to have to cite somebody named "Catturd" as a credible source.

I know the issue with the fraud. I also know the issue with voter apathy which is the only way the fraud succeeds. In my state there is a limit to the number or percentage of votes that Philly can manufacture.

What is this "limit"? They came up with at least 300,000 unverifiable mail ballots in 2020.

Carlson should run for President. He could say whatever he wanted and CNN / MSNBC might have to cover it.

This entire thing smells of Ryan and the swamp. Fox is so dead, they might as well hire the Bud tranny to replace Carlson.
