Michael Whatley, the Republican nominee for Senate in North Carolina, released an ad stating that he has “driven thousands of miles across North Carolina trying to fix our country and help working families.” But campaign finance filings reveal that Whatley’s campaign committees have spent over $100,000 since last September on travel in a $2 million private jet.
I will be glad when he no longer exist. Words I thought I’d never say about anyone because I’ve never thought them about anyone…
There’s a whole lot of people helping him that will remain, but many of those cowards will claim they never truly supported him or they will downplay their support for him. They will downplay the damage they did to the country by aiding and abetting his criminal enterprise. They will lie their ass off and unfortunately, it’ll probably be just fine for them because Dems don’t have the teeth necessary to do what’s required to punish them.
There will be committees formed, investigations and hearings held, and then they’ll all fade away with no one held accountable. The assholes will go on to cause havoc in some other capacity, rolling around in their spoils.
Dems and Republicans also will not fill the gaps, gray areas and exploited processes to prevent anyone like Trump or his criminal enterprise to ever go into leadership so easily again.
I am not optimistic today that we will fully recover within the next two decades
I hope he has at least a taste of justice before he "no longer exists". Death is an easy way out. He deserves to be humiliated in front of the whole world. His name will become a byword for greed, corruption and entitlement for decades to come.
Michael Watley, running against former Governor Roy Cooper for a senate seat in NC, said on the Howie Carr show that the GOP should unite to resist the release of the Epstein Files. Because whatever is still unreleased--or so heavily redacted as to be unintelligable--will hurt the party, if shown to the public.
Whatley is part of the coverup. A pedo-protector. A scumbag.
Along with climate catastrophe these examples are nurtured by legacy systems rooted in centuries of dehumanization and exploitation of those labelled 'other'.
Historically both the later-developing subcultures of science and of democracy rest on more mature ethical foundations, such as curiosity and veracity (attempting to tell the truth as best we can.)
I am appreciating Judd's application of modern ethics to keep exposing ancient habits by the fearful.
Looking into my absurdists crystal ball, I see next on his Great Lakes agenda - Trump renames the Georgian Bay (just west of Lake Ontario) Trumpian Bay. The Gordie Howe bridge becomes the Donald J Trump bridge of America. Lake Superior becomes the Lake More Superior than Canada. And the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls become the Donald J Trump Real American Falls so as not to be confused with the American Falls that exist already on the other side.
As a kindergarten teacher who sees this president as a childish bully...the next president must stop his infantile practice of showing us all his "great signature" as if he is doing anything great other than being a con man and carnival barker.
Performative BS. THIS is the kind of thing MAGA used to hoot and holler at Democrats for doing - making a huge, useless gesture while the rest of the world is going to hell.
I hate this timeline because it seems the closest thing to a news source reporting on the VAINGLORIOUS irregularities in the Charlie Kirk slaying is Candace Owens. The fact that she’s the only one does lend itself to the application of Occam’s Razor towards the conclusion she’s just “peddling conspiracy theories”.
Considering Candace Owens and her history is one of being a leader in the competition for greatest purveyor of alternative facts. The test by any consumer of her blather as a news source that should be applied (to every word she utters) is “distrust and verify”. Her behavior on this topic is per usual. When challenged, even offered a large financial award to produce the proof, she A. Says she has no direct proof of a certain aspect B. Pivots to other aspects & refuses to produce any evidence. Frankly, the conspiracy mills make much more $$ than most of us imagine by continuing to push out blatantly false despicable garbage.
I have no idea what you consider irregularities in the investigation unless it is that fragments from the ammunition could not be matched to the firearm. That is not unusual when there is damage “fragments.” But it launched a thousand conspiracy theories. Regardless, the shooter’s own texts and investigators’ findings that match details in them are going to be a very high hurdle to dispute. It is the defense’s job to attempt to do so anyway. (Same story for the DNA evidence.) A portion of the evidence was withheld from the public &/or not presented in the preliminary hearing. That will happen at trial.
As for the conspiracy theory about Israel. It’s another money maker.
“The very last meeting Charlie convened before he set out on his final campus tour was about Israel. On a Tuesday evening, hours before his murder, he gathered a small group of us on Zoom to prepare himself for the barrage of anti-Israel questions he knew he would face from students. He wanted to be ready to defend the Jewish state with facts and clarity.” The Jerusalem Post, Sep 27, 2025

I think he’ll drag things through courts -his usual routine- until he kicks off or finds somewhere to run, like Russia.

And yet, these are all distractions; from the climate change that is disrupting normal lives of everyone/thing on the planet.
Yes. I might call them "related distractions."

Call Oz a doctor is an insult to legitimate doctors everywhere. He's a quack.
He's a skilled heart surgeon, but otherwise, a quack.
yup and he sells weight loss potions!
The Medical industry would never reveal if OZ was an authentic quack. They protect their own.
If you had a heart condition would you trust Oz to be the "skilled surgeon" leading your surgical team?
Absolutely. Not for anything else, though.
Fair enough.
Personally, I'd look elsewhere. I've had major surgery previously and I wouldn't let Oz come near me.

Driven? In the sense of blissfully flying over working families in North Carolina? Yeah. A GOP fixer of his country, indeed!
