DeSantis attacks Democratic policies and woke, which is essentially the same thing: 'Florida is where woke goes to die'. DeSantis flipped Florida from what was previously considered a blue state to now a red state with a twenty percent majority in the mid terms

McCarthy has 213 votes in 12th round


Kevin McCarthy - 213
Hakeem Jeffries - 211
Jim Jordan - 4
Kevin Hern - 3

Maybe he'll still creep over the line to become speaker of the house, as some rebels have backed down. Trump's legacy brought some real wild cards into the fold, and I expect they're trying to get all that they can out of this situation.

At least Pelosi has gone finally.

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Classified files found at Biden Private Office.

Of course it's not the same thing as Trump besides it's only the Daily Mail blah blah.

Let's be honest, if he claimed no memory of what they are/how they got there it would be very believable if not expected.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

It'd be equally believable if he said - What's a filing cabinet?

It’s not the same thing, but not because it has been reported in the Mail! I read the story, as you must have done, on the BBC website, which is what you link to.

If you read the story the difference is clear. Whilst the details are not yet clear the Biden attorneys who found them immediately handed them over to the FBI and Biden’s team are cooperating in full in the investigation to discover what has happened.

Trump and his team actively resisted handling over a large number of files and are suspected of destroying others.

I have little doubt that the right will try to claim equivalence and make this worm cast into the Alps. I also expect them to ask why this has only now become public knowledge when the truth is there was actually no need for it to ever become public knowledge, at least until some wrong doing has been established. That it has been announced, in the interests of transparency, is to be praised, not criticised. Trump’s lack of cooperation could hardly be kept secret given the need to raid his home. The negotiations with him had gone on, in secret, for months previously.

There is no equivalence. That though won’t stop the right’s wolves frothing for months over a tiny bone devoid of meat.

The link to the BBC was a joke if it had been the Daily Mail you would have denied the story.

Having read it earlier on the BBC site why on earth do you think I would have denied it?

I might have criticised the spin that the Mail would doubtless introduce to wind up their readers but that’s different.
