tl:dr Tesla has been using Strike Breaker personell to handle new deliveries of cars, but now they will no longer be getting license plates, cause they can only be delivered by Postnord, which are refusing to do so in sympathy with the strike

2020 turned out with 12 million more people voting for Trump.

If the politics debate doesn't stop, some temporary blocks are gonna go out

With Joe Biden at the top of the ticket.

He was on the ballot in '20. Would you be so kind as to remind me how that turned out?

Biden wasn't on the ballot last week. Or at the midterms.

I'm starting to think Biden will be a one term President more and more. I don't think Trump will beat him, but I think DeSantis probably will. For various reasons, the people that elected Biden in the first place are slowly abandoning him, according to polls.

At this point, the way Biden is refusing to acknowledge what his base is saying...

NBC News noted that only half of Democratic voters, 51 percent, approved of Bidens handling of the conflict.

The crazy part is she probably is the most rational and reasonable Republican candidate.

President Biden stressed on Saturday that the U.S. is prepared to impose sanctions on Israeli settlers who are involved in attacks against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

It's only wrong when it's not American taxpayer money funding it. When we or our proxies do it it's fine.

People are saying that Haaretz is reporting that they Israeli shot some of the people on Oct 7th. I can't think to the Haaretz report because it is a firewalled. Note this was not them saying it was false flag attack.

"Why wait?"

And some consider her the most rational and reasonable Republican candidate.

Could unions always do this? At this point the workers themselves have little to no incentive to end the strike under any circumstances and minus well milk this dry.

Right-wing political group Moms for Liberty has removed two of its chapter chairs over their affiliation with the Proud Boys, a neo-fascist militant group that is even more right-wing.

In Kentucky, Moms for Liberty members, including county chapter chairs, were photographed with Proud Boys. The images show some members displaying gestures commonly associated with the white power symbol, Florida's Space Coast Rocket reports.

And in Tennessee, Hamilton County Moms for Liberty Chair Tonya Dodd was photographed sitting next to a Proud Boys member while wearing a Proud Boys hat, according to the outlet. The image, posted on a Moms for Liberty Facebook page, is part of a trend of Proud Boys members posing with Moms for Liberty chapter chairs in official photos.

The United States will not share any Israeli intelligence or elaborate on its own intelligence assessment that Hamas used Gaza's Al Shifa hospital as a command center and possibly as a storage facility, White House spokesman John Kirby said on Thursday.

The United States is confident in an assessment from its own intelligence agencies on Hamas activities in the Gaza facility, Kirby said. He has refused to elaborate or provide details over the past several days.

The Biden administration has not declassified the sources of the U.S. intelligence "because some of those same channels are being used to monitor the status of hostages," a knowledgeable source said.

The intelligence "is definitive," said the source, and includes communications intercepts of Hamas fighters. The intercepts were first reported on Wednesday by the Wall Street Journal.

I'm a reasonable gun owner, but the fact that I can strap my Glock to my hip and openly walk around like I'm in a f***ing posse from the 1870s is ridiculous. With no permit either.

Id like to believe cooler heads would prevail in key positions that would prevent this. UNLESS he appoints every single of those positions to be loyal dogs of his.

Nevadas attorney general is investigating six Republican electors who submitted a document to Congress falsely declaring Donald Trump the winner of the 2020 presidential election, a person with knowledge of the case said Wednesday.

It was not immediately clear if the ongoing probe was a criminal or civil matter. But the probe adds to official scrutiny of fake electors in several swing states won by President Joe Biden in 2020, including investigations in Georgia, Michigan and Arizona. Fake electors were charged in Georgia and Michigan, and Trump faces charges both in Georgia and in a federal investigation of his conduct related to the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.

Would some of our local die hard IDF supporters care to comment?

Nikki Haley on Wednesday partially walked back her proposed requirement that social media companies ban people from posting anonymously online for national security reasons, a stance for which she drew backlash across conservative social media and some of her GOP presidential rivals.

I dont mind anonymous American people having free speech; what I dont like is anonymous Russians and Chinese and Iranians having free speech, Haley said, not explaining how she would recommend that social media companies parse those users.

he Texas Rangers have begun a new investigation into tampering and misuse of official information within Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo's Office, according to court records filed Thursday related to the so-called bid-rigging scandal of 2021.

That scandal centered around a now-canceled $11 million COVID-19 vaccine outreach contract awarded to Elevate Strategies, a one-woman firm with little experience.

Three of Hidalgo's former staffers, Wallis Nader, Aaron Dunn and Alex Triantaphyllis, face tampering and misuse of official information charges.

Oh shit! Hes gone after 2024. Hopefully sooner.

Sadly, conservatives will legit think that and won't care at all about Republican hypocrisy.

When I get into office, the first thing we have to do, social media companies, they have to show America their algorithm, Haley said during an interview with Fox News Tuesday. Let us see why theyre pushing what theyre pushing.

Haley continued, saying she fears a rise in anonymous social media accounts could lead to widespread misinformation and potentially pose a national security threat.

Every person on social media should be verified by their name. Its a national security threat," she said. "When you do that, all of a sudden people have to stand by what they say and it gets rid of the Russian bots, the Iranian bots and the Chinese bots.

Im just confused though, the things congress has done hasnt been a major campaign issue for nearly as long as Ive been following politics. In fact, the opposite is true, Roy can run on We stopped the government from doing anything wasteful and get tons of support from his constituents. I have no idea why he thinks this is a problem form him when all of his voters assume doing nothing is better than allowing the Dems to do literallu anything.

The ending completely ruins it though.

Didn't we already know this? It was another case of right wingers trying to paint the left as unhinged Russia haters but it's like... bro, Rudy was in Ukraine shoppin for info and suddenly comes back with super duper totally damning Hunter Biden emails?

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) and chair of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee James Comer (R-Ky.) got into a heated exchange Tuesday.

During a hearing focused on oversight of the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), Moskowitz referenced a loan that President Biden made to his brother, which the committee has been looking into as part of the probe into Bidens family finances. He said Comer has gone on Fox News and told people that, while the president was out of office, he had a loan with his brother, and in a way, they were evading taxes.

It has come out in the public, that you also do business with your brother with potential loans, Moskowitz continued. And so, since you have framed that and manipulated that with the American people, that Joe Biden did something wrong when he wasnt in office, I just would like to know if you would like to use some of my time

I would love I would love it, Comer retorted. You retweeted that story, completely false. Ive never loaned my brother one penny. My father, who was a dentist, had some farmland. He died, and my brother couldnt afford he wanted to sell it, but he wanted to keep it in the family. So, I bought it from my brother. That story that you tweeted, also said I had a shell company. That is bullshit.

You look like a Smurf, here, just going around and all this stuff, Comer at one point said to Moskowitz, seemingly referencing his blue suit and tie.
Gargamel was very angry today, Moskowitz later quipped on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, referencing the main villain of the Smurfs universe.

My dad is already talking about how the Democrats are really all for using the DOJ to go after Trump.

Well, until they get busted for shit anyway. Then our justice system is unfair, and too severe.

We are right on every issue; the Democrats are wrong on every issue, Good proclaimed. Thats why they frantically cling to abortion as the only issue that they think may work for them, and in some cases it has demonstrated that it does.

Part of the problem is that we surrender and we default to the media narrative, the lefts narrative that this is a loser for us, he continued. We need to be unflinchingly, unapologetically pro-life. I think when you have moderation, you have tepid, vanilla, benign statements on the issue of lifeif youre trying to talk about 15-week bans that only effect less than 10 percent of abortionsI think what that does is that demotivates our base. Its not inspirational. It suppresses turnout in red states, and it leads to us losing elections.

We need to be bold and aggressive and paint with bright red colors on this issue, Good said.

I think it depends on what crimes was committed. There seems to be a different in reaction to a child molester or rapist getting beaten up or raped in jail. And that happening to someone that robbed a bank for example.

Its only a matter of time before there is a brawl in congress.

Daniel Terry Williams, 22, was serving a one-year sentence for assault and theft charges as part of a plea agreement, and he was set to be released on Nov. 9 the same day he died, according to Jefferson County court records and his family. He had only been at Staton for about two weeks following a transfer to the Elmore, Alabama, correctional facility, when he was allegedly beaten and sexually assaulted.

The warden also allegedly told Bostic that Williams had been hospitalized due to a drug overdose on Oct. 22, she said.

Bostic said she and Terry initially thought their son had "gotten into something bad" at the prison after Bostic's call with the warden, but when they arrived at the hospital where the 22-year-old was receiving treatment, they were shocked at what they discovered.

"He was black and blue from head to toe. He had restraint marks on his wrists. He had indents, almost, in his head from being beaten," Bostic recalled. "So, my husband, Terry, called the warden and said, 'Why the helldid you tell me my son died of an overdose when it was obviously an assault?' And the warden said it's under investigation, and that's all we've heard from them since."

The Justice Department sued Alabama over the condition of its prisons in 2020 after a federal investigation revealed that "Alabama violated and is continuing to violate the Constitution because its prisons are riddled with prisoner-on-prisoner and guard-on-prisoner violence."

Trump is now retweeting people calling for the citizens arrest of of the AG and judge.

The NYT article about this includes the following sentence: "The code does not specify how the rules would be enforced or by whom."

Well, since teachers can still send kids to the Principal and give detention what other forms of discipline are they not able to do?
