…the Mitch is Dead? story is being eclipsed by the Oyster guy but the more they try to make him appear to be alive the more they make him look dead. Three Republicans spoke with him one phone for the exact same amount of time 20 minutes. Lots of weasel words. What hospital he’s in is a mystery. Leftie propaganda should be hounding Republicans over it- there’d actually be some substance to their criticisms. Pretty quiet except for CNN with one sedate interview. Ky gov made an inquiry, so far kinda ignored…
Ding dong the mitch is dead, Which ol' mitch? The Turtle Mitch.
Obviously, something is gonin' on. If Mitch is "recovering" why not just post a cellphone photo with Mitch giving us a smile and a thumbs up?
I see two possibilites. One, Mitch is headed for turtle heaven and they're just trying to avoid a special election. OR. Mitch and his wife just don't give a damn what the Kentucky voters think. He's Mitch McConnell damnit, Former Senate Majority leader, and he doesn't give a damn what the rubes back in Kentucky think.
Fortunately, this bloodless backstabbing elistist will be out in Jan 2027, no matter what.
It says alot about DC republicans that when Thune and some CNN "Reasonable Republican" said they talked to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes, no one believed them. Yeah could be true. Could be a lie. Its a DC Republican.
The Republican Establishment. Romney, dead Dick Cheney, Bush 43, Ryan, McCarthy, etc. Etc. have proven themselves such liars and so filled with contempt for their own voters that no one gives a damn what they think or say. That's why we got Trump. And will get Rubio or Vance in 2028.

I was in Colorado for the 4th of July weekend, and on the 4th, we took the Cog Railway up to the top of Pike's Peak in the early afternoon. I got to experience something totally new at the summit: The clouds rolled in and were dropping little pellets of snow that looked like little styrofoam balls. I found out that they weren't really "snow" as such, but rather something called "graupel," which is formed when snowflakes fall through supercooled liquid. When raindrops do this, it makes hail, which is more icy. The graupel was softer. Not exactly what you're expecting in the summer time, but I was dressed for the weather in jeans rather than shorts, and I had brought along my "Florida Coat" (also known as a flannel shirt). It was a great weekend. We went to Red Rocks, Garden of the Gods, the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden and the Rocky Mountain Arsenal Wildlife Refuge where we saw numerous prairie dogs and bison.
High schooler Hillary Clinton went looking for signs of election fraud in the early 1960s. She and her friends found that voters' residences were actually vacant lots. When Salon, a liberal website, mentioned the story in 2008, they distorted it with a mandatory mention that the intrepid high schooler's investigation turned up nothing, something manifestly contradicted by a quote from her friend.
NYT Pulitzer-prize winner Ben Protess is hot on the trail of President Trump. Protess's father is a Northwestern journalism professor who freed Anthony Porter, a Chicago death row convict. I am now watching "Murder in the Park," a documentary about how corrupt and dishonest Protest Sr.'s investigation was. David Protess, his students, and his collaborators had freed a guilty man from death row and put an innocent man in prison.
The other day I heard that kids are being given tests in the old way. They receive exercise books and handwrite in them their answers to questions in the presence of the teacher and then hand the books in. This is the only way to prevent AI cheating. But there's a problem which is that they can't write because cursive is no longer taught. I never was able to understand how this issue was being coped with.
I see Platner has officially dropped out of the Maine senate race- according to news reports. A whole bunch of different names being suggested for who should replace him. Interestingly, none of them are Janet Mills- who was running against him in the primary.
How about Andrew Gollum? Might be a residency problem, but I'm sure that can be overcome. He's just been arrested for drug possession, but hey, to a Democrat, isn't that a resume enhancer? And think- judicial intervention in recounts almost made him the FL governor. FL dodged a bullet there.
Someone asked the other day something similar to- Does someone have to live in Maine to be elected senator there? The answer is- No, they must have actually been born and grown up in Maine. I lived there in 1994 when George Mitchell unexpectedly announced he was retiring from the senate. It was a bombshell in the Maine political arena. Two Maine congressional districts- one with a Republican, one a Democrat. Both immediately announced they were running for the senate, leaving the two CD slots open. People literally moved back to Maine to announce they were running for congress. Newspapers were running stories about who suddenly moved back into the state. Maine is nothing like NY where Hillary with no ties whatsoever was parachuted into the state to run for and win a senate seat though she had no connections whatsoever to NY. She was a diehard liberal white woman, married to the man who saved abortion, Bill Clinton. All the qualifications needed for NY Democrats. Maine, OTOH, if you weren't born there, you're not going to be elected to any office. Not even dogcatcher. Once you're elected in Maine, to anything, it's pretty much a lifetime sinecure if you want. Change is frowned upon.
I got most of my Maine insights from my immediate subordinate who was a native Mainer. He wasn't much impressed by the average intelligence level of his fellow citizens there.
High schooler Hillary Clinton went looking for signs of election fraud in the early 1960s. She and her friends found that voters' residences were actually vacant lots.
She was a Republican then!
The nice thing about joining the Democrat party is that you no longer have to worry about voter fraud anymore.
There are sizable number of Democrats who think illegal immigrants ought to be citizens. And if they're not allowed to become citizens? There are sizable number of Democrats who think illegal immigrants ought to be able to vote.
This, I suspect, is a major reason they fight voter ID.
But there's a problem which is that they can't write because cursive is no longer taught. I never was able to understand how this issue was being coped with.
You don't need to write in cursive. I can't write in cursive. My cursive is unreadable. Just print out letters. Printing letters is way better than cursive. Cursive sucks.
AI doesn't help on written tests. It only helps on writing papers. It's actually pretty easy to test students and see how they're doing without AI. Just take their phones away and test them. Problem solved.
Hasan Piker is also notorious for saying that the USA deserved 9/11. NYC mayor Mamdani: "I find the comments that Hasan made on 9/11 to be objectionable and reprehensible."
MA Gov just signed off on an additional $100 million for illegal alien support. If illegals are barred from voting, then govt should be barred from supporting them. They are not constituents if they can’t vote. They have no legal right to public funds.
A Jewish writer in Townhall: “ We grew up in an America in which being Jewish meant nothing negative. We went to the same schools, played in the same sports, and, growing up in a not particularly religious home, ate at the same restaurants. We didn’t experience even a whiff of anti-Jewish behavior. Fast forward 40 years and we read articles about Jews and Jewish history being removed from Wikipedia or Jewish professors being denied access to college buildings.”
What happened? And why are white/ black relations in the tank? One need look no further than the Commie left. Discord is their middle name.
Mitch is part of the Democrat effort to stop the SAVE act from passing. If Mitch gets replaced with a real Republican that is just one more traitor that will vote to end the Democrat party.
It really isn't that hard to see what is going on here.
Looking forward to the next DSA vs DNC death match, this time featuring the crazy Francy Hong running for governor of Wisconsin. Lay in supplies of popcorn. While she is unlikely to win the gubernatorial election she might win the primary, which means that the DSA is organized enough in WI to start pealing off the “safe D” districts so they can begin taking over the state Democrat organization.
The DNC has appealed to FIFA to have DSA star striker Graham Platnikov suspended from the upcoming match against Team Collins. Even though the DSA cried foul, FIFA agreed with the DNC and Platnikov will sit this one out. It appears Platnikov’s career as a striker is over, although rumors abound he will join the Believer Some Women podcast.
.@GovernorShapiro: "Somewhere, I hope, in Pennsylvania today, a child will ask their parents why the flags aren't all the way up on the flag pole. And I hope their parents will tell them that it is because of Trooper Pahira — and how we honor law enforcement in death and in life here in Pennsylvania."
In the comments on X:
"Another child is going to ask why a man who is in this country illegally was able obtain a commercial drivers license and kill the officer along the highway.
The answer is politicians like Josh Shaprio. Let bad people into America, who didn't follow our laws. Democrats like Josh Shaprio, let these people register to vote, take advantage of our health insurance system designed for the poor and in fact, people like Josh Shaprio give the money and cell phones.
People like Josh Shapiro are bad and the officer would still be alive if the illegal person wasn't given a drivers license."
US strikes Iranian railway bridges on route to city of Khamenei’s burial ~ FT
I remember when one of Trump's selling points was that he would end the forever wars in the Middle East .
A reminder: One of the myriad of reasons Trump gave for the ceasefire was that, were the war to continue, there would be an economic depression.
So Trump wants to end the war ASAP to avoid economic disruption before midterms, but also is targeting infrastructure in a way that looks almost designed to force Iran to escalate. I am confused. Does the US even have a strategy here?

There is a picture of Republicans crossing the aisle to vote with Democrats in the spirit of bipartisanship. Mitch is the one not wearing any shoes.
