A bit of column A, a bit of column B and C.
Fear-mongering, which is customary for a governing clique which has lost its way and thinks it is about to be turfed out again. There is no conspiracy theory too far out to be entertained.
That may have been the case when Biden was on the ticket, but if anything the Dems have been re-energized in the past few months.
Yes, Trump belched out a ridiculously improbable and ill-founded malicious defamatory rumour, regardless whether it is grounded on some fact that someone somewhere once killed and ate urban wildlife. What's happened in the past few days? A probable assassination attempt. What's a response being floated by some people? Victim-blaming, as if the kind of hatred being spun up is somehow excused at some remove by slandering Haitians in Springfield OH. What are they overlooking? The hundreds of statements by prominent politicians and other opinion leaders that amount to "Trump is such a danger to democracy...", with "...that anything goes" either stated or implied. All the people doing that are grossly irresponsible.
The US military is composed of American people. And I haven't seen any evidence that Milley's call to the Chinese was prompted by something reasonable. When someone claims he had to do something because of some imagined risk that Trump might be irresponsible, I hold the person making the claim to be irresponsible. All the US military members sworn to an oath to the constitution can start there and follow lawful orders consistent with their oaths; the rest can follow lawful orders from their superiors.
That’s the thing though - if a bomb threat is called, they still need to take action to determine if it’s a hoax, regardless of where it’s coming from.
I have, and I have come to the conclusion that when the politics of division have been allowed to fester in history, it rarely ends well.

At present, the conduct of elections is entirely a matter for each state, and there is no role for the federal executive to play. Trump has a vested and direct legal interest, following the SCOTUS immunity decision, in any legislation that could allow for a plausible claim that the president or senior federal executive do have a role in the conduct of elections. Putting elections within reach of the core or peripheral presidential functions would armoue Trump against future prosecutions for election interference if he frigs around again.Trump Speaks of Nonexistent Debate ‘Audience,’ Says ‘They Went Crazy’

And no one on Gutfeld (there were 4 in that video) tried to correct him.
Also, GOP votes against their own bill to keep the lights on. I’m sure the US military loves not getting paid…

Iran and Russia are different countries, so the one doesn’t preclude the other.For all the hyperventilating hypothesis going on here about how Trump is in Putin's pocket (untrue of course)... we now actually know who Iran wants as POTUS.
