I'm replying to muttly's comment here because the topic deserves a thread of its own. It's not without good reason the left (and others) are freaking out about Tucker Carlson. As evidence and testimony from the Dominion case becomes public, it is clear Carlson (and others at Fox) did not...

We're talking about two different things.

Is it also too early to fill a room at CPAC?

Elections where Republicans are losing ballot questions in which abortion rights are the issue. US Senate elections where gerrymandering has no effect (statewide races, not partisan rigged local districts). Where the people are free to vote without Republican voter suppression, Republicans lose...

That is a helpful answer, Pilgrim. Thank you. I found a larger list here. I know we're only 2 months into the session so it would be unfair to ask what bills passed by the US House have become law. But the present track record and situation suggests very little the US House passes will become...

Does Trump Have a Crowd Size Issue? Chris Christie: "'You saw the scenes at CPAC, that room was half-full,' Mr Christie said on ABC’s This Week. 'The reason I don’t think the rallies are going on… I don’t think the rallies would be nearly as big as they were before.'” (Source) Christie's...

The Republicans have held majority control of the US House for two months now. What have they accomplished so far? What major or landmark legislation have they passed? What bills have they passed at all? In what way, if any, have their actions benefited the people they were elected to serve?

Trying to understand that legislator's reasoning, I found this: "'Paid bloggers are lobbyists who write instead of talk. They both are professional electioneers. If lobbyists have to register and report, why shouldn’t paid bloggers?' Brodeur said of his bill." (Source) I'm not sure where he...

Yep. Thinking about that, in the grand scheme of things, how do polls matter at all? If we had no polls and only elections, would the final result change? But thinking a bit more about this, polls do make differences sometimes. I remember in 1998 when Jesse Ventura was running for Minnesota...

More Lawsuits Coming Trump's Way ... So What? DOJ tells the court that Trump is not immune from civil claims for inciting death and destruction on Jan 6 because it is outside the scope of his duties as president. If the court agrees, Trump will be named in additional lawsuits. From Trump's...

Just to be clear, these are the four polls I'm talking about. Polls are polls and they often change. Except for political junkies who love this kind of stuff, there is a long way to go before the polls count for much of anything. "A wave of recent polls showed that Trump — the oafish man who...

1. DeSantis does not illegally possess and store classified documents in his home. 2. DeSantis did not interfere with Congress when it tried to certify the election. 3. DeSantis did not violate any election laws in Georgia. 4. DeSantis did not pay hush money to a sex worker. Trump is being...

Four polls, not one. Not an outlier at all. Four polls saying the same thing.

L Don't leave out the Republicans. There are plenty of them ready to have their anti-DeSantis fun too. And don't leave Trump out either. Recently it was Trump himself who posted the DeSantis photo with high school girls, saying DeSantis was grooming them. DeSantis is already being treated...

DeSantis Losing Ground to Trump in Recent Polls https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-news-2020-election-results-murdoch-fox-news-b2291807.html

Trump Will be a Major Factor through Nov. 2024. Trump does not have enough support to win the election or maybe even the Republican nomination. Assuming he is not in jail or otherwise legally prohibited from putting his name on the ballot, he does have a chance as a third-party candidate in a...

Other than that reckless foreperson, no special grand jurors have stepped forward to say anything. And the foreperson has not breathed a word in public since she enjoyed her 15 minutes of fame. I think she got the message.

House Democrats and Republicans both have ideas about how to deal with the federal deficit. The attached article nicely summarizes their approaches and explains why neither will work. With no workable solution in sight, our country continues to speed headlong toward a financial crisis. I...

What is the Meaning of This? DeSantis usually hangs out in Pensacola, the Florida state Capitol. Trump's Mar-a-Lago home is is in Palm Beach, an 8.5 hour drive from Pensacola (shorter time by plane). DeSantis could have had this pre-presidential campaign meeting anywhere in Florida or anywhere...

Of course it's an opinion. That's all anyone can offer at this stage. Even in court, the cases that will be made by the lawyers will be the opinions of the case they want the judge and jury to accept. And even when a ruling is made, it is an opinion of the court.
