Hva, bruke tid på velgerne i en stat som ikke er vippestat?! Nei slike folk er ikke verdt den dyrbare tiden til Kamala.

Harris vil ikke ha noen Fox-debatt før forhåndsstemmingen begynner.

På denne dagen i 2016 ledet Hillary med 6,8. Biden ledet med 7,9.

Now, for the first time, the outlines of the real story can be told. The Ukrainian operation cost around $300,000, according to people who participated in it. It involved a small rented yacht with a six-member crew, including trained civilian divers. One was a woman, whose presence helped create the illusion they were a group of friends on a pleasure cruise. The Journal spoke to four senior Ukrainian defense and security officials who either participated in or had direct knowledge of the plot. All of them said the pipelines were a legitimate target in Ukraine’s war of defense against Russia. Portions of their account were corroborated by a nearly two-year German police investigation into the attack, which has obtained evidence including email, mobile and satellite phones communications, as well as fingerprints and DNA samples from the alleged sabotage team. One crew member, a military officer on active duty who was fighting in the war, was a seasoned skipper, and four were experienced deep-sea divers, people familiar with the German investigation said. The crew included civilians, one of whom was a woman in her 30s who had trained privately as a diver. She was handpicked for her skills but also to lend more plausibility to the crew’s disguise as friends on holiday, according to one person familiar with the planning. Investigators later identified their mobile phone numbers and their Iridium satellite phone. That data allowed them to reconstruct the entire journey of the boat, which moored in Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Poland. U.S. authorities sought a court order to obtain from Google the emails a Ukrainian businessman used to lease the boat, and handed them over to the Germans. That Ukrainian businessman had contacted a number of boat rental firms in Sweden as well as in Germany, starting from mid-May 2022. “An attack of this scale is a sufficient reason to trigger the collective defense clause of NATO, but our critical infrastructure was blown up by a country that we support with massive weapons shipments and billions in cash,” said a senior German official familiar with the probe. Ukraine has a long history of training top civilian and military divers. A naval base on the Crimean Peninsula in the past trained deep-sea divers for the purposes of sabotage and demining. It also kept combat dolphins trained to attack enemy divers and blow up ships, according to two senior Ukrainian officers.

Hard dag for Walz.

Kamala Harris Would Be Disastrous for the Middle East As a senator, Harris advocated for rejoining the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, a deal with Iran to ease sanctions in exchange for slowing its nuclear buildup, which Israel’s prime minister vocally opposed, and the Trump administration ended. And Harris, as Politico notes, “condemned a January 2020 military strike against top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani and co-sponsored unsuccessful legislation to block further military actions against Iranian leaders and targets.” Harris’ stance on the use of military force against America’s main adversary in the Middle East marks a stark departure from the pattern of the past five presidents. Harris was also in favor of disrupting the longstanding relationship with Saudi Arabia. Angered by the Saudi air attacks on Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, she voted for a resolution to limit arms sales and military assistance to the oil kingdom. Kanskje Kamalas første utenriksbesøk dersom hun blir Potus går til Iran?

Men hvorfor er han egentlig tidigere Command Sgt. Major dersom han ikke har fullført alle kvalifikasjonskravene? Det er ikke uvanlig at et opprykk er todelt, noe av tiden som kreves for graden er kurs og noe av tiden er befalstjeneste hvor man tjenestegjør som graden man skal ha.

Det er ikke bare semantikk. Hvis han feilet å fullføre Command Sgt. Major utdanningen og ble degradert til Master Sergeant, så er det jo ikke nødvendigvis helt uproblematisk å kalle seg førstnevnte. Kan en kaptein som er blitt degradert til løytnant fortsatt kalle seg kaptein? Kan en som blir tatt opp i Navy Seals men ikke fullfører utdanningen kalle seg navy seal?

Right-wing lawmakers are moonlighting as media stars Steve Bannon is in prison, but his show must go on. Lucky for him, there’s a Congress for that. The other week, Bannon’s popular digital show and podcast, War Room, had an unusual guest host: Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas). Roy is one of a handful of lawmakers who have filled in this summer while Bannon serves a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) guest-hosted the show in mid-July; Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) are reportedly slated to take the mic in the coming weeks. (Kari Lake, the election denialist and Republican candidate for Senate in Arizona, and former Virginia congressman Dave Brat have also filled Bannon’s oversize seat.) It’s the latest example of a trend on Capitol Hill, as new tech, coupled with mass media layoffs, has enabled lawmakers—especially, but not exclusively, from the far right—to bypass the nation’s beleaguered press corps and become the first-person storytellers of Washington. Noe flere burde gjøre.

Pennsylvania’s I’m-Not-Weird Voters What motivates them? How did they go from hating George W. Bush and Mitt Romney and voting for Obama to now backing Trump?

Cruz Makes Another Biden Prediction After Correctly Predicting In 2023 Democrats Would Replace Him Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said this week that he believes there is a good chance that President Joe Biden leaves office before the elections this fall. Hm. Da blir jo Kamala plutselig president #47. Mye merch som trykkes opp på nytt for Trump. Og Kamala er vel da etter loven pliktig til å overta og implementere #Agenda47, nice!

Hva han har sagt om McCain er ikke så ukjent.. Jeg kommenterte bare hva jeg hvordan jeg husker Atlantic historien den gabgen.

Navn? Attlanic og Fox pusliserte begge samme påstanden, som stammer fra noen staff e.l., altså ingen som var tilstede sammen med Trump. Fox eller hvem det nå var snakket med alle som hadde vært sammen med Trump, men ingen kunne bekrefte å høre han hadde sagt det.

Rart ingen som var med Trump på flyet kan bekrefte de påstandene.

"..I want us to get an interview scheduled before the end of the month"

hvorfor skulle senatorer generelt vært mer redd for det når "maga-ekstremistene" i Rep.hus har gjort det?

"Harris has yet to do a single substantive interview or to explain her policy shifts. (Her campaign denied a request for an interview for this story.)"

Tja, som andre sa - hvis man stemte for første gang, hvorfor skulle man ikke stemme for andre gangen også, innholdet endret seg jo ikke, det eneste som endret seg var at den ikke var en del av an større pakke. Man behøver ikke støtte fra alle republikanere. Han behøver kun støtte fra noen fåtalls republikanere. Det er utopi å tro at en border bill vil får 80-100 ja-stemmer i senatet. Men litt hell kunne den gått gjennom med 60-40, men ikke fordi det var mye god republikansk politikk i den. At Trump skal ha fått de få mest moderate republikanerne til å stemme nei er ganske urealistisk. De andre republikanerne klarte nok helt fint å stemme nei på egenhånd, uavhengig av hva Trump skulle mene. Det er jo bare se på reaksjonen som kom da det begynnte å komme detaljer fra billen, de var jo ikke akkuratt positive..

RFK Jr. won’t appear on New York state presidential ballot after court rules he’s not a resident Da blir nok likevel ikke RFK jr den første ikke-republikaner/demokrat siden Ross Perot til å stille på listene i alle 50 statene. Democrats and their allies sue to keep RFK Jr. off the ballot in several states

Sorry Elon, men Kamala gir ikke intervjuer.. (det går riktignok rykter om et mulig fellesintervju Harris/Walz senere i uka, men tror ikke noe er bekreftet enda?)

Jeg har ikke turt å høre Musk/Trump intervjuet enda, er litt redd for å bli utsatt for "seriouse harm" som EU påpekte, er det trygt for en EU borger å høre?

Jeg klarer å lese hva du skriver, men det gir ikke mye mening når man sammenligner med hva Bidens WH har gjort. Så langt har jeg ikke sett du påpeke annet enn denne ene tweeten av Teigen, og du mener likevel dette er verre enn det Bidens WH drev med..som f.eks. når de krevde parodikontoer av Bidenfamilien fjernet. Soave er sikkert mye, men er det noe han ikke er så er det en løgnaktig røtte. Romney, McConnell, Collins & co har aldri brydd seg om hva Trump mener, hvorfor skulle de plutselig gjøre det nå? Og for å spørre igjen, hva i forslaget var det som var så bra sett med republikanske øyne? Var noe det som f.eks. var hentet fra republikanernes eget grenseforslag?

Behøver ikke være enten/eller, kan lett jobbe med begge. Basert på hva vi har hørt fra republikanerne tidligere har jeg en hvertfall en noenlunde ide om hvem som var mot. Den border dealen som ble fremlagt fikser jo ingen av problemene de har klaget over tidlivere. Og Collins og company slår meg ikke som noen som hopper når Trump sier hopp.

Imane Khelif's trainer admits 'problem with chromosomes' after boxer took gold: 'This poor young girl was devastated' Now her coach, Georges Cazorla, has confirmed that the tests identified 'a problem with hormones' and 'with chromosomes', suggesting that she may have the XY gender chromosomes typical of a man. 'This poor young girl was devastated, devastated to suddenly discover that she might not be a girl,' he told French magazine Le Point. Now Spanish national coach Rafa Lozano has revealed that Khelif was considered too dangerous to pair with women at a boxing retreat in Madrid ahead of the Olympics. We put her with Jennifer Fernandez and it hurt her. Whoever we put her with was injured.' He said coaches only found a match for her after pairing her up with Jose Quiles, one of Spain's leading male boxers. 'I don't see it as fair,' he said. 'Everyone can think what they want, but that's how I see it.'
