Seriously, screw this guy.
or, given the scheming and devious actions from both parties in recent past to do all they can to prevent any serios challenge from 3rd party, his resources could elevate it to a reality

Hes "chasing this down" because:
1. as much a scumbag as he is, he understands that elections are not about facts, but emotion and belief.
2. it makes him look like hes doing something( ya know rooting out "fraud, waste and abuse") without actually doing anything of substance.
3. ensuring his election by putting this info out there amongst his cult; just the inference of impropriety ( only on the part of his competition of course) is enough to get folks out there whipped up enough to follow his "lead" and without ever really looking into the matter, Why? refer back to point #1
notice he isnt content with winning the republican primary, he seems to be pushing for Zeigler to be off the Conservative line as well pretty much ensuring the Devious Duo run unopposed.

Brennan is such a shit slinging hypocrite....and for some reason a large portion of Hhds voters eat it right up: I guess, given he and Art's recent exploits with the RNC he'd be the expert huh

another familiar clan that cannot resist the public teet....at least Chemung residents have the good sense to keep them out of their governance

its interesting that the universe is expanding in all directions, it makes me wonder; how do they know what they are seeing is in the past and not in the "future"

except they were not.... and Iran actually moved much of its uranium materials prior to the attacks so theres that too but if the fool says so...
if this all werent disturbing enough anyone see tucker v cruz? quite scary regarding Cruz's insistence on Israel's importance, even going so far as to quote the Bible in illustrating our "duty" to protecting Israel....REALLY our so called leaders are quoting and using scriptures as referrence for governance?! Equally hypocritical since they are damning Iran for being a theocracy

at some point the world at large really has to do more than lip-service regarding Israel's actions amongst its neighbors; gazan cleansing, military actions in Syria, lebanon to name few. now on the eve of the Nuclear talks resuming, Israel bombs Iran, kills Iran's lead negotiator, scores of civilians all while claiming the old "self-defense" routine....
im not saying these other countries are filled with saints, but at some point one must wonder when everywhere you go you have problems; whats the common denominator?

while i do not condone the actions, i can understand the underlying trigger.
the elected and executive classes have become so detached from the People. between this and the Senator hauled out of the press conference; look at the responses from those in Congress and State governments: " If this can happen to a Senator, imagine what they'd do to a regular person"... "perhaps its time to provide increased security for elected officials" and so on.
Maybe, ( and im just spit-balling here) those elected to represent the People, should be held no higher than those that elected them? be available, be answerable to People when they want to know why Laws they do not want are forced upon them, or money we dont have is being stripped from us and squandered?
When Insurance coverage that people have paid for their entire adult lives fails to meet their needs due to pencil pushers or extra-fine print, PBM's and middle-men get paid bonuses for saving insurance companies money by denying claims, or when a mother of a disabled kid is refused even 5 minutes with their elected official who, in response to questions about her support of Medicaid cuts said " we all die at some point" ; these very folks are not subject to the same rules and coverages they expect us to survive on( survival, not living seems to be the new standard) are now subject to what it feels like when the People are not listened to.
Notice i typed "listened" there is a difference between that and "hearing". we hear traffic, peepers, televisions, white noise, etc but we really dont pay them much mind....its background to our daily routines; much the same, politicians and their ilk, hear the people and continue to do what benefits themselves with only lip-service every election cycle about how THIS time around theyll address our concerns
maybe now they might just start listening a bit better going forward

For some reason Mr Brennan feels now is the time to try and get to a new position where he won't have term limits. He had said that he would have more impact in his local area than in the county. Huh? Isn't he representing the local area on the county legislature?
This is the Village so basically the fight over the parks is the biggest issue I've seen them have in awhile.
once in, hes good to suck off the municipal teet for life, while spewing MAGA bullshit knowing full well hell not really DO anything, but his supporters will fawn over him and keep in office

hard to tell whether Musk truly is sickened by what trump/Repubs have done after all the bluster about cutting waste and spending; seems like perhaps Musk had actual good ideas where to make meaningful cuts and they all basically said eff that
or, Musk is taking the opportunity to distance himself to rebuild some good-will from the general public in an effort to save his bottom line
its beyond maddening to hear the very same republicans that have gone pitchforl & torches at the mere mention by dems of raising debt limit, and right out the gate they are doing that very thing.
then youve got some now saying they didnt know x,y, or z was in the bill but passed it any way; echoes of "we have to pass the bill to know whats in it"
with any luck the Senate will recognize the cold piece of dog turd this bill is and send it back

"This cannot happen through a European mandate system that stifles growth,” Zeldin said in a call with reporters."
SO we see a system that works, a system that ensures higher quality ( ive tasted difference between European and AMerican foods) but we arent going to employ it, because it might "stifle growth"? I think he means it might cut into profit margins as proved by the following quote: “The Make America Healthy Again Report is filled with fear-based rather than science-based information about pesticides,” the National Corn Growers Association said in a statement."

10 hours ago, Beekeeper said:Unless someone did his college work for hiim, he learned the basic economic rules while in college. He knows how it works. He knows who is really paying the price. He could care less if the poor people cannot get enough food...He is watching what is happening in Gaza and doing nothing. No he doesn't care about basic humanity and living with dignity. He told his uncle that he could have no family money for the care of his handicapped child. His job is to fatten his pocket and if it makes it better for other rich people, too, that's okay.
I just hope he doesn't appoint his college son for the Presidency when he's done. Speaking of which, where is Melania?
unfortunately, over the last decade "governance" has become less about being responsible/accountable to the greater good, and more about sticking to the other side. like an internet flame war; the substance doesnt matter, just how many sick burns one can inflict until the opposition is humiliated, or flabbergasted into submission
both parties are guilty of it its just that the last 6 years the Left, by holding themselves to be intellectually superior to the point of making anyone who disagreed with their collective POV appear to be morally repugnant cave dwellers, has made a large part of the electorate rabidly intent on exacting revenge apparently even if it means shooting themselves in the foot

one "Dissenting" voice in face of scores of other sycophants....DJT will hardly notice...
was listening to AM radio on way home today, the Wendy Bell radio show? FFS that woman makes MTG look like the epitome of sanity! was actually claiming that the BBB is pinnacle of good govt spending, and that in the Senate, they will certainly pair it down to balance!
this thing, or at least 98% is a steaming pile of hypocrisy and swine

it would be nice to see public comment periods for any level of governance, moved to AFTER the officials have spoken/conducted business. Folks would have opportunity to better express their concerns.

two new Paw Paws are showing green shoots, our flower patch is as well. transplanted some milkweed as wellm as sedum, all of which seem to be tolerating the move very well

would have been super convenient for Dem party. Biden toughs out another campaign and wins, anytime after January, his diagnosis "discovered" and Harris gets her presidency without any effort or vetting by the electorate
