US elections November 2024 [amended 18/04/24 - HB]


Recommended Posts

Seems to be running a little short of hot air at the moment ...

The Tory Legacy

Record high Taxes, Immigration, Excrement in waterways, energy company/crony profits

Record low: living standards and investment

Crumbling Hospitals, Schools, council services, businesses and roads

 

If only the Govt had thrown a protective ring around care homes with the same gusto they do around their crooked MPs

“This is specifically not allowed. Mr. Mansour used to be a Cabinet Minister in Egypt, he has given the Tories a huge amount of money, and immediately gets a knighthood.

That seems straightforwardly corrupt.  Shouldn’t they both be in jail?”

LOL

 

Four years after he kicked off the Trump presidency by lying angrily about the size of the inauguration crowd, the former press secretary Sean Spicer has applied to join the White House press corps.

 

The former Republican party official now hosts a show, Spicer & Co, on the hard-right and conspiracy theory-tinged Newsmax network.

Never mind. :)  I see they're suing that Sidney lawyer lady for the same amount.

 

It's quite funny seeing Trump's bully lawyer whining about his right to practise law being affected by having to be accountable for his actions...

I think he might be more worried about this than a pending 'inciting insurrection' charge.

seems more and more confirmed that Trump appointees delayed and restricted Capitol Police and National guard efforts to address expected Trump(Orange)/white supremacist attack on Capitol Hill

There's a lot coming out about events on 6th January, isn't there? Including that figures like Alex Jones and others on the far right sent hundreds of thousand of dollars to support the insurrection.

 

Trump seems to have managed to replace the legal team that walked out last week. I wonder if the new team will get on any better with arguing that the election was stolen?

Eleven Republicans vote to throw Marjorie Taylor Greene off committees

The result effectively removed any influence she may have had on committees instrumental to oversight and legislation

 

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/feb/04/marjorie-taylor-greene-congress-democrats-committees

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/marjorie-taylor-green-11-gop-adam-kinzinger-b1797921.html

 

"The US House of Representatives has voted to strip the extremist Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia of her committee assignments, in a stark rebuke over her incendiary and racist statements  ...

included supporting the assassination of Democratic members of Congress, denying that a plane crashed into the Pentagon on 11 September 2001, and perpetuating the myth that the Parkland, Florida, school shooting in 2018 was faked."

 

"Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican minority leader, has called Greene’s past comments “looney lies”.

- but still voted in support of her and with the other Republican leadership refused to remove the freshman congresswoman themselves.

 

"with 230 voting in favor and 199 voting against. Just 11 Republicans, including Adam Kinzinger and Brian Fitzpatrick, joined with Democrats to strip Greene of her positions on the House budget and education and labor committees."

 

House rules committee chairman, Jim McGovern said: “I stand here today still deeply, deeply troubled and offended by the things that she has posted and said and still not apologized for,”

Pehaps Corbyn should take heed of Jim McGoverns statement there

Interesting that the republicans cant actually win the impeachment ..

Trump can, but the republicans cant

 

They have a choice of supporting Trump and defining that a president can do what he likes ... with a democrat president enthroned

 

or supporting the conviction of Trump and retaining some credibility .. but not so much with the loony right.

as Mitch McConnell gets his entirely expected reward for getting Trump acquitted

 

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-mcconnell-gop-attack-b1803187.html

 

– urging lawmakers to dump the veteran Kentucky politician.

 

“Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack, and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again. He will never do what needs to be done, or what is right for our country,” said Mr Trump.

What a surprise, Trump's new website is rewriting the story of his presidency. As the Guardian says, 'Narrative omits two impeachments, economic crash, Covid death toll and riot that marked end of his term'.

'Donald Trump has discontinued the blog-type website he launched in a fanfare less than a month ago as “a beacon of freedom” and “a place to speak freely and safely”.'

 

'he Trump blog, a mouthpiece for his false claims about a rigged 2020 presidential election, failed to gain traction and on 21 May the Washington Post reported it had attracted a “staggeringly small audience”.'

Trump will go away quietly in my opinion.  Gradually the conspiracy based agenda is being exposed for what it was, leaving many of those who believed embarrassed.   There is a follow up documentary series to the recent Borat film on Amazon Prime which addresses some of the silly stories that parts of America thought were true.

 

Trump faces quite a few Court cases and inquiries into various, so I doubt he would have much time to engage in politics.  I just wonder how much of Trumps fortunes are real or is it just a huge amount of debt invested in the various property projects in different countries.  And the arguably damaged Trump brand is probably not helping to sell apartments, hotel rooms etc. 

We could do with some help from you.

I hope so, UB, but there was an article in the Washington Post only this morning that says he's fixated on the ballot audits in Arizona and talking about running more of them in several other states. He still thinks he won the presidential election.

(in response to Uncs post)

I dont think so

Alex jones has had a big following for years and still does.

Trump makes a good figurehead for the nutter brigade -and the noisy ight wing minorities are doing well the world over

Interesting article.  Trump organisation seeing reduced prices for property they own, as people are too embarrassed to be associated with Trump.  Still think Trump will disappear from the political world, as he will have too many other issues to deal with.
