wendybar म्हणाले...: Ain't THIS special?? Clinton operative engaged to Soros spawn who wants to take down America.

"Huma Abedin is engaged to George Soros' son and heir Alex.

The Democratic insider, 47, and the younger Soros, 38, got engaged six weeks ago and were spotted recently celebrating in Italy, according to Page Six."

Narr म्हणाले...: It's been nice here too--yesterday would have been perfect for April if the humidity had been a little lower. It was so great the old dackel made two half-mile walks, which has become rare.

Today is sunnier and warm but below average temps and humidity, soon to be worse.

The Georgia Election Board has voted 3-1 to adopt rule to require ballots be hand counted at the precinct level by poll officers each day of voting to ensure the totals match with the machines.

"The poll manager and the two witnesses shall sign a label affixed to the container indicating that it contains all of the correct ballots from the indicated ballot box and no additional ballots." - The new rule says; १०/७/२४, ७:०२ PM

imTay म्हणाले...: Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay,
Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away,
Gone from the earth to a better land I know,
I hear their gentle voices calling “Old Hack Joe.”

I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low:
I hear those gentle voices calling, “Old Hack Joe.”

Why do I weep when my heart should feel no pain
Why do I sigh that my friends come not again,
Grieving for forms Now departed long a go?
I hear their gentle voices calling “Old Hack Joe.”

I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low:
I hear those gentle voices calling, “Old Hack Joe.”

Where are the hearts once so happy and so free?
The children so dear that I held upon my knee,
Gone to the shore where my soul has longed to go.
I hear their gentle voices calling “Old Hack Joe.”

I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low:
I hear those gentle voices calling, “Old Hack Joe.”

Sorry Stephen Foster!; १०/७/२४, ८:१५ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: “ None of my business, but I wonder how many takes you discard before you select the ones you post. ”

Today I took four to get one, but it wasn’t a changing and interesting cloud situation. Other days I take many more mainly because I’m trying to get the very best color and cloud shape. Today’s picture is different part because the water on the lake is very high so some of the tree that you often see is currently underwater.; १०/७/२४, ८:१७ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: I hope you notice the state capitol building.; १०/७/२४, ८:१८ PM
Narr म्हणाले...: I looked at the WaPo's coverage "Biden delivers remarks at the 75th anniversary of NATO" on YouTube.

From the start to at least 6:30 he Marines play Mozart (The Impressario(?--clever choice) and Sibelius' Finlandia (well duh) but I skipped around so may have missed some other selections. The singers just before Biden are singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" by Rodgers and Hammerstein.

I never did like that one.; १०/७/२४, ८:२२ PM

Original Mike म्हणाले...: When we were children and returning home to Madison from a car journey, we had a game of who would spot the capital first. Of course, it quickly became known where those spots along each of the highways were located, but young children will continue to play the game anyway.; १०/७/२४, ८:४२ PM
Dave Begley म्हणाले...: Thanks to Ann’s post earlier today, I bought Sebastian Junger’s latest book.

But I forgot to use the Althouse AMZN portal. Don’t make that mistake.; १०/७/२४, ८:४२ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: dreams: "I'm hoping Trump's choice of a vice president is Marco Rubio"

Why?

Marco Rubio is a sucked-in member of the Intelligence Community cabal that set Trump up and keeps it going to this very day. I do suspect Rubio regrets all that occurred based on what he knows now and the role he played in long term facilitation of weaponization of government against conservatives, which could explain his stronger language attacking attacks against Trump based on that.

But I would be interested in hearing what you think Marco brings to the table that would be critical electorally in the near term and policy wise for the longer term. Is he really a swamp cleaner-upper type....or is he the next generation of Bushes?; १०/७/२४, ८:४५ PM

Been listening to Joe Biden for decades. He doesn't have a speech impediment.; १०/७/२४, ९:१० PM
Original Mike म्हणाले...: Oops. That's in the wrong thread. My comments have been disappearing from the appropriate thread.

Has there ever been an explanation for why that happens?; १०/७/२४, ९:११ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Inga: "#TrumpPedoFiles trending on X."

LOL

Yes Inga. As with the Trump-Project 2025 "connection" hoax, you New Soviet Democraticals are desperately, DESPERATELY, tossing out whatever you can to try and deflect from what the entire world can no longer deny about your pathetic serial hoaxes and lies.

Those paying attention will have noticed how Ted Lieu was tossing this BS out just yesterday...trying against all hope to generate some traction.

It's going nowhere...because there's nothing there...and never was.

Also relevant, there has been more anti-biden chatter which included the irrefutable words of Ashley Biden in her diary about her Joey Dementia showering with her when she was 12 and sexualizing her, the creepy behavior of Ashley on the balcony with Joey Dementia just the other night, and Hunters bizarre non-russki-disinformation pics from his laptop showing sexualized pictures of him and his niece AND Hunter's many, many underage prostitutes that he trafficked across borders to have sex with...live on his laptop.

Also, there has been a concerted push on X by Musk demanding the DOJ go after the Epstein client listers who went to the island for sexual purposes....which we all know had nothing at all to do with Trump....with Bill Gates and democraticals being called out specifically.

So, Inga, the little democratical wind-up toy, gets her new marching orders from her masters and she's On The Deflection Job baby!; १०/७/२४, ९:११ PM
Original Mike म्हणाले...: Thanks, Inga. I have no interest.; १०/७/२४, ९:१२ PM

Inga म्हणाले...: “Thanks, Inga. I have no interest.”

Of course.; १०/७/२४, ९:१४ PM
Original Mike म्हणाले...: Oh, Inga. It's almost assuredly bullshit. If it's not (hell, even if it is) it will be plastered all over those sites you think of as providing "news".

I have but to wait.; १०/७/२४, ९:२० PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Inga: "Google #TrumpPedoFiles without the spaces, you’ll get more results."

LOL

You only need to read one lefty hoaxer to know exactly what all the other ones are saying.; १०/७/२४, ९:३० PM
Drago म्हणाले...: It's also important to point out that it is estimated that the Inga approved New Soviet Democratical policy of wide open borders with zero vetting to protect children has allowed AT LEAST 150,000 children to be trafficked into the US as slave labor and sex slaves.

Or, as Inga would probably say, "spark of divinity" child traffickers.; १०/७/२४, ९:४७ PM
Mike of Snoqualmie म्हणाले...: If Trump selects Marco Rubio for VP, Florida's EC votes are unavailable to them. The Constitution requires that the Pres and VP can't get a states EC votes if they're from that state. That' 30 votes to Joe Biden as he's the likely runner up.; १०/७/२४, ९:४८ PM

“Google #TrumpPedoFiles without the spaces, you’ll get more results.”
Seriously Inga? No introspection? Instead of flinging mud, how about you come to terms with the fact that your Democrat representatives have been lying to you about the mental state of the guy you voted for President. You voted in President Biden but who’s running the country now? Isn’t it time you Democrats fixed your party?; १०/७/२४, ११:२९ PM
Wa St Blogger म्हणाले...: What Inga does not understand, is that her single minded devotion to feeding her TDS has made everything she says to be without merit. We cannot believe anything she posts because she has been proven too many times to be producing inaccurate information. She does not understand the value of building trust by being reliable. Instead she builds mistrust to the point where even true statements will be seen as untrue.

However, in this case, she is still being unreliable. As we know, the Media, the justice department, the democrat party and the intelligence agencies have all shown that they have no compunction against providing knowingly false information about Trump. And yet, and yet. none of these sources seem to have any desire to associate Trump with pedo island. There is really only one good reason why. There simply is not enough material for them to work with. If there was even a hint of material, they would have made it a year-long media campaign.

That is data that Inga cannot allow herself to accept. The lack of the full-court press is the real evidence that there is no there, there.

But Inga believes in the pony, so she keeps looking, while over in the next stable is a clearly visible pony, prancing about, nickering, and trying to nuzzle the oblivious Inga. On this pony is a blanket with two names woven into it - Tara and Ashley.

Her willingness to allow the sacrifice of these innocents for some perceived higher value speaks volumes.; १०/७/२४, ११:४७ PM

But dont forget the Trump Tower-Alfa Bank Secret Server Pinging Messages Between Putin And Trump hoax!!!

Holy cow did Inga run with that one forever! Even after it was exposed as ANOTHER Hillary funded effort with US lefty techies simply pinging some generic marketing stuff back and forth.

Good enough hoaxing for government work though the CIA/MI6/NSA/DOJ-NSD/FBI though and all the other utterly corrupted IC agencies.; ११/७/२४, १२:१८ AM
gadfly म्हणाले...: Clark Hoyt was a reporter, editor, Washington bureau chief, and news executive for Knight Ridder and later served as public editor of The Times. He and President Biden share a birthday.

Mr. Biden is having a hard time right now, and I get it. That awkward, stiff walk of his? The White House physician says it results from “wear and tear” on his spine. Tell me about it. I’ve had to get shots into my spine to alleviate excruciating pain caused by a collapsed vertebra.

The president and I share other health issues common for folks our age. We each have atrial fibrillation, an occasionally irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke. We take Eliquis for it. We also suffer from sleep apnea, which can make you wake up over and over, snorting and choking, leaving you tired and unable to focus during the day. We’re both being treated with continuous positive airway pressure that involves wearing a mask attached to a machine by the bed that pumps air into you all night.

These are all conditions of old age, as we octogenarians can attest. Sleep happens in dribs and drabs and pain pills are part of living and sleeping. Dementia is not necessarily a condition that everyone deals with but some memory loss and verbal grasping for words to say is sometimes a problem. But Biden and Trump both know and ignore the issue. Strangely, American adults know this also but tend to think that aging is someone else's concern.; ११/७/२४, २:१६ AM
wendybar म्हणाले...: Aging isn't what bothers us about Biden, Gad...it's the cheating, the lying, the corruption, and the political prisoners being made of anybody who disagrees with the progressive fundamental transformation that bothers us, and all of it is coming from the people you are covering for.; ११/७/२४, २:४७ AM
wendybar म्हणाले...: "What a flaming hypocrite. Of course, Clooney knew. He just seemed upset that voters now knew.

Remember: This was the fundraiser where Obama had to lead Biden away by the hand. You were told by the Associated Press and others that this was a perfectly normal interaction, that Obama merely wanted to appear chummy, and that to suggest otherwise was a "cheap fake."

If they have to wonder WHY American citizens with a brain don't trust the media.....THIS could be the problem.

"George Stephanopoulos was threatened with being taken off air if he didn't clarify his position on Joe Biden's ability to serve another four years.

The ABC host gave his blunt assessment of the president's performance in a brief interview when he was ambushed on Tuesday.

The former Bill Clinton aide was asked on the street in Manhattan if Biden should step down and responded: 'I don't think he can serve four more years'.

She then hauled Stephanopoulos into a private meeting where she gave him an ultimatum: apologize or be yanked off air.

'She was furious that someone of George's experience and status would compromise the news division's impartiality, and subject it to unnecessary and embarrassing headlines."

Reminder this is the fundraiser where Obama had to lead Biden off the stage

The White House told us it was a cheapfake to point that out. Now the organizer of the fundraiser says that Biden appeared insanely old and now needs to drop out of the race; ११/७/२४, ७:२२ AM
Jamie म्हणाले...: gadfly, insisting that the issue is Biden's age is like insisting that the issue with Hunter's laptop is Hunter's dick pix. It's disingenuous. Surely you know that.

As a comparison, may I suggest the recent Piers Morgan panel interview with 5 panelists, Joe Walsh, Geraldo Rivera, Clay Travis, Marianne Wilson, and some other dude who had to leave partway through? I suggest paying particular attention to Geraldo.

Because, as he points out, he's only a few months younger than Joe Biden. Compare and contrast.; ११/७/२४, ८:१६ AM

MadTownGuy म्हणाले...: Mirta Díaz-Balart, first wife of Fidel Castro, dies at 95 (14yMedio)

Article is in Spanish. Here's a significant excerpt:

"Nacida en La Habana en 1928 y divorciada de Castro en 1955, Díaz-Balart era miembro de una de las familias más notables de la República. Estudió Filosofía y Letras en la universidad capitalina, donde conoció a Castro, que cursaba Derecho. Su luna de miel fue en Miami y Nueva York en 1948 y un año después nació su hijo, Fidelito, que se suicidaría en 2018 tras una fuerte depresión y en circunstancias aún no aclaradas del todo.

La familia Díaz-Balart tenía –y sigue teniendo– una fuerte vinculación con la política. El padre de Mirta, Rafael José Díaz-Balart, fue alcalde de Banes, la ciudad holguinera donde nació Fulgencio Batista. Su hermano Rafael fue miembro del Parlamento cubano y, entre 1952 y 1956, del Gobierno; se opuso al fracasado asalto del cuartel Moncada organizado por Castro y lamentó que se le concediera la amnistía a él y a sus compañeros. Los hijos de Rafael, Mario y Lincoln –sobrinos de Mirta– son o fueron congresistas republicanos en EE UU."

Translation:

"Born in Havana in 1928 and divorced from Castro in 1955, Diaz-Balart was a member of one of the most notable families of the Republic.

She studied Philosophy and Letters in the Capital University in Havana, where she met Castro, who studied Law. Her honeymoon was in Miami and in New York in 1948, and a year later her son, Fidelito, was born, who committed suicide in 2018 following deep depression and in circumstances not entirely clear.

The Diaz-Balart family had - and still has - a strong connection to politics. Mirta's father, Rafael José Díaz-Balart, was Mayor of Banes, the city in Holguin where Fulgencio Batista was born. His brother Rafael was a member of the Cuban Parliament and between 1952 and 1956, the Government; he opposed the failed assault on the Moncada barracks organized by Castro and was upset thst amnesty was granted to (Castro) and his companions. The sons of Rafael - Mario and Lincoln - nephews of Mirta - are or were Republican Congressmen in the U.S."
