    24 % of American men are likely closet homesexuals

    Kamala lost because she is a woman and is black and the majority of Americans didn't want her in charge

    Agreed I posted as much when she was annointed, for good or ill black and female obviously pushed the acceptability envelope too far, the Biden baggage and not being chosen, RFK,Stein supporters didn't help.

    Smart is a matter of opinion, wealthy obviously , I suppose the 24% in the closet were toying with pussy grabbing as a cunning plan?

    All joshing aside many will regret Trump, therefore Dems need to recognize they went too far for those who in the middle and young men . They won't have to face Trump but possibly Vance or heaven forfend Musk? I think he may debarred like Shwarzenegger as foreign born, Pretorian guard , tho of course Trump could attempt to change the constitution, a decade ago he was a game show presenter.

    This Tulsi Gabbard defected democrat seems like an appointment to be reckoned with.

    Her Cruella DeVille streak announces her as a woman of substance.

    She is a former martial arts instructor and lieutenant colonel in the army reserves.

    She has magnetic screen presence and manages to carry herself with moment and present herself as a powerful woman without coming across as a shrill harpy.



    She has a slightly deep voice but it is deep in a deeply sexy way.

    I bet she is packing a strap-on when she agrees to come in for a coffee



    Oh fuck yeah!

    It seems like a really fucking stupid idea if you ask me.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Tulsi Gabbard, President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to lead the U.S. intelligence services, in 2022 endorsed one of Russia’s main justifications for invading Ukraine: the existence of dozens of U.S.-funded biolabs working on some of the world’s nastiest pathogens.
    Moscow claimed Ukraine was using the labs to create deadly bioweapons similar to COVID-19 that could be used against Russia, and that Russian President Vladimir Putin had no choice but to invade neighboring Ukraine to protect his country.
    In fact, the labs are public and part of an international effort to control outbreaks and stop bioweapons.
    Gabbard, a military veteran and a former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii, later said she wasn’t accusing the United States or Ukraine of anything nefarious and was just voicing concerns about protecting the labs.
    But to critics in the U.S., including lawmakers in both parties, the comments showed a disturbing willingness to parrot Russian propaganda — a tendency that has earned Gabbard praise on Russian state TV.

    Oh look, an FCC appointee who thinks the government should give Musk money.

    Just fancy that.

    And he doesn't like fact checking.

    President-elect Donald Trump will tap Brendan Carr, a critic of the Biden administration’s telecom policies and big tech, as chair of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), he has said in a statement.
    Carr, 45, is the top Republican on the FCC, the independent agency that regulates telecommunications.

    He has been a harsh critic of the FCC’s decision not to finalize nearly $900m in broadband subsidies for Elon Musk’s SpaceX satellite internet unit Starlink, as well as the commerce department’s $42bn broadband infrastructure program and President Joe Biden’s spectrum policy.

    Yeah, much better to continue giving billions to existing internet providers, who have received over $40 billion over time and have done almost nothing to connect rural people. Rather than spending $900 million on Starlink and connect them all.

    Trumps strategy seems to be appointing absolutely the worst person he can find. So far he is running at 100%.

    I am not a huge fan of Peterson philosophically, but when it comes to psychology I think he knows his stuff.

    I think the provocative appointments are a calculated play from Trump. He wants to put his majority in the senate to a loyalty test high jump and shore up the strength of the mandate.

    What is the calculation? Picking TV personalities, who kiss his little mushroom cap?

    You don’t have a mandate, when you win less than 50% of the popular vote.

    It's quite the comedy show.

    What damage will be done remains to be seen.

    He is still an entertaining interlocutor on the debate stage but his philosophical meanderings around Jungian archetypes I find a bit bewildering. There are other much more coherent philosophers available.

    I think Trump won the popular vote this time by about the same margin that he lost it to Hillary in 2016


    I had never really heard of this Ramaswamy Musk sidekick since I did not follow the primaries before Trump was the nominee.

    He shoots from the hip when it comes to answering journalists questions and has the racism issue in a nutshell...

    Not quite.

    Trump’s popular-vote advantage has declined steadily since election night. As of Monday afternoon, Trump was at 49.94 percent, while Harris was at 48.26, according to the authoritative Cook Political Report’s tracking of results from official sources in states across the country. And we can expect that the Republican’s total will only continue to tick downward as heavily Democratic states on the West Coast finalize their vote tallies.

    Trump’s still ahead of Harris in the popular vote. He also maintains a lead in the decisive, though absurdly antidemocratic, Electoral College— slightly less than Barack Obama’s in 2012, slightly more Joe Biden’s in 2020—based on a pattern of wins in battleground states. So, the failure to win a majority won’t cost Trump the presidency. But he’s lost his ability to suggest that he trounced the Democrat. In fact, she’s now trailing him by just
    1.68 percent of the vote.
    Clinton won the popular vote by 2.1%.

    Gaetz withdrawals from consideration as Trump’s AG


    “While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition,” Gaetz wrote. “There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I’ll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump’s DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1.”

    He can still go back to the House in the next Congress, because he was already elected. He has said he is not going to do that. Perhaps.

    Trump taps loyalist Pam Bondi for attorney general after Gaetz withdraws

    US President-elect Donald Trump tapped Pam Bondi, a staunch ally who helped defend the ex-leader against impeachment, as US attorney general on Thursday following firebrand Matt Gaetz's withdrawal from the running.

    Gaetz's retreat amid sexual misconduct allegations signaled limits to Trump's power, even as the president-elect prepares to retake the White House with his Republican Party also in control of both chambers of Congress.

    The nomination of Bondi, a former Florida attorney general who served as a surrogate during the 2024 campaign and pushed to de-legitimize vote counting in swing state Pennsylvania in 2020, could be seen as a useful tool for Trump in his attempt to settle personal grievances.

    Well it looks like the Fox News talking head that was nominated for Sec. of Defence had to pay off a woman he sexually assaulted.

    Mind you, in the baldy orange cunto world, that doesn't seem to matter so much these days.

    A woman? Geez! Amateur! You shouldn’t be considered for a cabinet position in the Trump administration, unless you’ve sexually assaulted at least 3 women, or 2 minors!
