There's another Dem who left the Dems to switch to the Republican party.

Two of Trump's biggest endorsements have been by two former Democrat candidates for President.

Looks like we're seeing the makings of a domino effect here. Apparently there are more names to come (some allegedly big ones too) according to hearsay.

Seems to me that this could be a sign of what's to come in November.

It's not illegals you have to worry about. Even if they do vote illegally, it's the larger population of gullible niggercattle who will fall for "Kamala JOY! Trump/Vance are WEIRD!" who will tip the scales.

Such is the populist's dilemma. The elites are evil, and the commoners you wish to champion are stupid.

I really don't think the weird brat thing is working, the only people it works on are people who are suseptible enough to that kind of social pressure that they're voting a socially acceptable blue anyway. Even my boomercrat parents aren't into it, my dad hates Kamala but their main driving force is literally "Trump is going to be a dictator" and unironically comparing him to Hitler and the antichrist. The "orange man evil!" Stuff works better than anything else they could do.

why would the same person get 9 refunds?

I'm retarded, what does this imply

Apparently a Venezuelan gang has now taken over several apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado, and have taken over charging the rent. Landlord can't do anything since they are heavily armed.

UPDATE: The city and Aurora Police Department, as previously stated, established a special task force in collaboration with other local, state and federal partners to specifically address concerns about Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) and other criminal activity affecting migrant communities. We are grateful that the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a valuable federal partner, has acknowledged its ongoing work into TdA across the metro and appreciate the additional resources it provides to combat this issue. #APDNews We are aware that components of TdA are operating in Aurora. APD has been increasingly collecting evidence to show the gang is connected to crimes in the area. However, as we have said previously and as the DEA similarly stated, it would be improper at this time for the city and APD to make any conclusory statements about specific incidents or provide details about law enforcement strategy and operations.

Probably should get out of there if you live anywhere along the border

And the governor is doing nothing about it.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis dismisses migrant gang takeover of apartments as ‘imagination’ — despite video, mayor confirming truth

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis dismissed anger over Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua taking over apartment buildings in the Denver suburb of Aurora, calling it “imagination” — despite video footage, police reports and the city’s mayor confirming it’s happening.

Polis’ press office offered the snarky statement Wednesday night in response to Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky — who told The Post the gang’s takeovers are tied to his policies.

“The Governor has already let the Mayor know that the State is ready to support the local police department with assistance from state troopers and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation if needed,” Shelby Wieman, a spokesperson for the Democratic governor, told The Post.

“But, according to police intelligence this purported invasion is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.”

Wieman added that “it’s illegal to take over buildings in Colorado” and if Jurinsky has “knowledge” of such activity, the governor’s office is “ready to assist” cops “in taking them back.”

“Violent crime dropped in Aurora between 2022 and 2023,” said Wieman.

Despite the governor’s claims, however, the evidence is clear.

This is how I know that the Arlington photo doesn't matter:

Not even the MSM is milking it. The media is surprisingly pretty quiet about it.

The more they bitch about whatever nothingburger occured while Trump was there, the more people will learn that Trump was at a ceremony remembering the survivors of needless and preventable military deaths in Afghanistan and Biden/Kamala was not. Biden didn't even want to show up just to show off his watch to everybody.

It has been a wild election, but nothing prepared me for Kamala feet cartoon.

One of the more audacious things about this election is how desperately the Harris campaign wants to pretend that 4 years of disasters under Biden's watch that he barely responded too didn't happen. I think that's why they're milking Palestine so much, it's the only horrible situation that they can firmly say they aren't related too. (Outside of weapon sales ofc)

And instead of going to the memorial, Biden was sunbathing at Rehoboth Beach ... He and Jill just couldn't let that pesky memorial get in the way of their 2-week vacation, after all.

Kamala was probably busy enjoying her bottomless mimosas and Doritos in the back of some limo on that day too.

The whole illegals aliens and voting thing needs to be clarified as the kids of illegal aliens having a perverse incentive to vote for the part that benefits their parents the most, i.e. Democrats

WRONG! You'd be shocked. Some of them do, but the large majority of them don't. I'd say, from what I saw, most children don't want anything to do with their parents. This is also because the parents are leeches and pressured their kids to join the army just so that they wouldn't be deported. A lot of second-generation immigrants don't want anything to do with illegals, and they're probably the ones who are the most racist towards the illegals.

If I had a dime for every time I heard an illegal father cry because his son supported Trump, I probably wouldn't have enough for a savings account, but I think I could buy myself something nice.

We're in that obnoxious phase of the news cycle where they can fawn and bullshit with impunity, claiming they have all the cards and the damn dirty Deplorables are seething over nothing.

But when reality hits, it hits them like a semi truck.

Again, I'm not saying "Trust the Plan", I'm saying "this, too, shall pass."

I hope, but the last "red wave" prediction was a disappointment. I think the first inklings of dem defection are happening though, I voted hard blue last two elections and now I'm voting red, husband is same, have a friend who is also the same but she was only voting RFK, now is going trump. I don't know anyone who is going the other way from red to blue. I don't think we're in for a tide shift but some of the more retarded dem policies have caused some flaking, but a lot of the dems I know have just doubled down and gone even harder since then. "Blue no matter who" is popping up a lot more this election

What's the difference between Kamala Harris and Adolph Hitler?

Hitler actually got votes to put Him into office.

Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany by Paul von Hindenburg. He ran for President in 32. But lost. He got 13 million votes, 36% of them. Hindenburg got 19 million.

 

[Sithis]

Oh fwiw I don’t actually expect him to call Vance a fag, but I can imagine Walz saying something like “let’s solve this like men outside,” implying he wants to give him a punch in the face. Vance would obviously then give a speech about political violence.

Vance should respond with "let's"

Come on man, it's OK to criticize your guy every once in a while when he fucks up.

Thats the thing, you fuckign queers always go after fake dumb stupid shit instead of legit stuff. I'm pissed that Trump didn't give the j6s a blanket pardon, i'm pissed he's made some stupid statements about "take the guns first, due process later", the way he's letting his roe v wade win get turned into a loss by these "pro life" grifters. Any of those things are valid, but this is just another version of the "losers adn suckers" bullshit.

The roe v wade stuff was a HUGE win, Trump fumbling it with mixed messaging, or lack of clear message. he got justices in to over turn it and send it back ot the states, that's what he claimed he would do, and that's what he did. If you pro life grifters can't win in kentucky or kansas, maybe you should be spending some of your big gala money on some better ground game. That's a great way to attack trump and get him to put out a better message, but these fucks are claiming they aren't gonna vote for trump unless he personally runs on 100 percent abortion ban. That's not how this shit works.

Rather amused by the fact the posts just above the recent thread feature about Zuckerberg are people bitching about or defending One Piece.

ETA: @Falcos_Commisar I thought the Freemasons were a “nondenominational” theist organization? As in, they don’t “lean” toward one religion or the other, they just want their own members to believe in a general overarching deity.

This is correct AFAIK. The organization and it's offshoots (like Eastern Star) are heavily influenced by Christianity and the majority of the members are some flavor of Christian (just not Catholic) but they only require that you believe in a higher power.

I think the "application" or whatever directly asks if you "believe in Higher Power" or "Supreme Being."

The GOP royally fucked up in the 2022 Election, in so many ways. A lot of the GOP was in a state of trying to distance themselves from Trump after "muh insurrection" happened. Not to mention that money was pulled from good candidates and put into the races for RINOS.

There was also a lot of, ahem, honkening going on with the midterms as well (*cough cough* Kari Lake is the legitimate governor of AZ *cough cough*)

Trump and MAGA are the Republican Party right now (in regards to the voters). The enthusiasm is there that I simply didn't feel in the 2022 midterms, personally. I wasn't shocked that there wasn't a "Red Wave," personally. 2020-2022 was a time a huge demoralization for conservative voters.

I will also say that the overturning of Roe V. Wade got the women to vote en masse in the midterms (because it had literally just happened earlier that year). And it didn't help that old fart Republicans like Lindsay Graham were overplaying their hand (or possibly even sabotaging the GOP because he's Uniparty) by openly saying that the GOP was going to run on a nationwide ban on abortion altogether.

Personally, I'd love to see abortion get banned entirely at some point in my life ... But it simply isn't going to happen if the culture doesn't catch up with that policy. Hearts and minds need to be opened and changed before legislative actions such as this take place, imo.

 

[draggs]

Right up until the president becomes incapacitated, and then isn’t it quite literally in the job description of the VP to assume presidential duties? Biden’s clearly out of commission, but obviously they can’t admit that and let Kamala take the reins formally because it would trash her campaign even more than she already has. So nobody has the reins at all. I think it’s fair to ask why she hasn’t done something, if not in the last three years, at least in the last few months, if she’s so capable. More people should be asking where the hell Biden is in general, actually. God, it’s all so corrupt.

I doubt the cabal that attached itself to Dr. Jill had any inclination to give any real power to Kumala

 

[Sammich]

bottomless mimosas

You know, that sounds like a lovely way to spend the next three days, times are a little tough and oj is like 8 bucks a gallon, so i'll just grab some sparkling wine and do it up.
I do hope you folks will join me in a bit of day drinking over the weekend. Surely the news will slow down, right? RIGHT?

[HOMO FOR LIFE RETURNS]

Pro lifers are just grifters at this point. Not only have they failed to counter the abortion, they have made themselves isolated from the general public. At this point pro lifers should accept the reality and work down from the late term abortion, offer adoption services and alternative options to win hearts and minds.

What we forget is that abortion IS an essential service despite it being so gruesome. The goal is reducing the number of abortions and increasing birth rates by offering more options and benefits of carrying to full term.
