MSM is going bonkers over Trump's announcement that he will run again in 2024. CBS had their two minutes of hate this morning but will NOT report that the new House majority will be Republican.

How many of the 218 are RINOs and likely to cross over?
[PJMedia] There is nothing funnier than watching leftist Punchinellos beclown themselves over the latest “We’ve got Trump NOW!” hijinks.
Remember when the FBI raided Trump’s home supposedly looking for “nuclear secrets” a few months back? Guess how that turned out?
I’ll let the quislings at the Washinton Post spell it out:
Federal agents and prosecutors have come to believe former president Donald Trump’s motive for allegedly taking and keeping classified documents was largely his ego and a desire to hold on to the materials as trophies or mementos, according to people familiar with the matter.
In other words, Trump was keeping souvenirs, as everyone else does.
Funny how WaPo sat on that story until after the midterms, right?
But wait, there’s more!
That review has not found any apparent business advantage to the types of classified information in Trump’s possession, these people said. FBI interviews with witnesses so far, they said, also do not point to any nefarious effort by Trump to leverage, sell or use the government secrets. Instead, the former president seemed motivated by a more basic desire not to give up what he believed was his property, these people said.
Not only did the FBI not find any nuclear bomb codes, but they also found no evidence that Trump was looking to “leverage, sell or use the government secrets.”
So Trump wasn’t selling nuclear secrets on Craigslist after all. Who knew? Everyone. And that likely includes the Department of Justice and the FBI.
Needless to say, WaPo couldn’t just admit the “Trump has nuclear secrets for sale” flapdoodle was the latest Hail Mary pass to send Trump to prison and that it proved to be another flaccid member of the “get Trump” orgy. They threw the idea in near the very end that they still might come up with something juicy:
The people familiar with the matter cautioned that the investigation is ongoing, that no final determinations have been made, and that it is possible additional information could emerge that changes investigators’ understanding of Trump’s motivations. But they said the evidence collected over a period of months indicates the primary explanation for potentially criminal conduct was Trump’s ego and intransigence.
Some liberals still haven’t gotten the message or are perhaps blatantly lying.
In other words, the “Trump is selling nuclear secrets” lie is over. He kept a few tchotchkes from his four years serving as the greatest president in recent history. The nerve!
WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. Mitch McConnell was reelected as Republican leader Wednesday, quashing a challenge from Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, the Senate GOP campaign chief criticized over his party’s midterm election failures.
Retreating to the Capitol’s Old Senate Chamber for the private vote, Republicans had faced public infighting following a disappointing performance in last week’s elections that kept Senate control with Democrats.
McConnell, of Kentucky, easily swatted back the challenge from Scott in the first-ever attempt to oust him after many years as GOP leader. The vote was 37-10, senators said, with one other senator voting present. Senators first rejected an attempt by McConnell’s detractors to delay the leadership choice until after the Senate runoff election in Georgia next month.
"I’m not going anywhere," McConnell said after the vote that leaves him poised to become the Senate’s longest-serving leader when the new Congress convenes next year.
McConnell said he was "pretty proud" of the outcome as he acknowledged the work ahead.

WTF! Er huh...failure rewarded. UniParty in Action. No need to consult with Trump or Desantis, let's just go ahead and set the pubs up for 2024 failure on day fok'ing one.

This is a rule that needs changed. The House and Senate majority leaders are elected right after the election. With the same scumbags that are voted out!
The new blood needs to be the votes that puts the leadership in place. Of course they haven't changed that as it keeps the good 'ol boys in charge and fuck the newcomers.

Lets keep the same team that lost the best mid-term chance in history to stop the insane slide to the left of the marxist Bidet administration. Yeah, that the ticket!
[WND] A church at which Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., on was staff, and which still pays him about $90,000 a year for "housing" while he has full employment as a U.S. senator, is getting into deeper trouble with the state, having missed a required deadline to provide information that was requested.
The Washington Free Beacon, whose investigation revealed not only the lack of a charities registration for a church foundation, but the fact the foundation that owns an apartment building was evicting tenants during COVID, explained that charities operating without registrations in Georgia can face civil fines, and even face being barred from raising funds.
The publication now reports that Warnock's church, the Ebenezer Baptist Church, has failed to respond to an Oct. 12 inquiry from the state into the issue of the charity registration.
Now the "Office of Secretary of State is weighing whether to file a subpoena against the group," the report said.
This issue involves the registration for the Ebenezer Building Foundation and the organization, which is controlled by Warnock's church, failed to answer questions from the state offices of Securities and Charities, which is in the secretary of state's jurisdiction.
"The state's threat of an investigative subpoena against Ebenezer's charity could pose problems for Warnock as he launches his runoff campaign against Republican challenger Herschel Walker," the report said.

I think many of them serve a different god. He has to hope that his god is not sleeping or on a journey during the runoff. It did not go well for the priests of Baal at Carmel when that happened. Less so on the Red Sea crossing.

It's simple. The church's favorite charity is Reverend Warnock.

MLK Jr was definitely against abortion.
How he would have felt about government restrictions on abortion is another issue.
Warnock, like many other Christian politicians, says he is personally against it but not in favor of government restrictions. Of course Warnock actually voted for a bill that would require Christian doctors to perform abortions and would have the government fund abortions.

John Fetterman, a man with brain damage who lived off of mommy and daddy until he was 50, was ’elected’ to Pennsylvania’s open US Senate seat last week.
Fetterman can barely speak after his massive stroke in May.
He needs giant monitors and a stenographer typing out questions in real time in order to communicate.

This from his Wikipedia article - Fetterman expressed regret for having ignored his health; after the 2017 diagnosis with atrial fibrillation, he did not see a doctor for five years and did not continue medications.
So he's been dumb for a long time.
But - not to worry! The physician noted that Fetterman regularly attends speech therapy, routinely exercises, takes appropriate heart medications, and "has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office."

Once Shapiro is Governor, Fetterman and the arrogant wife will discover they are disposable for some more competent radical to take the seat for 5 1/2 years. They pushed this brain-damaged clown over the finish line using every trick in their Philadelphia toolbox, but he/she are just theatrical placeholders now.
[USNews] President Joe Biden is asking Congress to provide more than $37 billion in emergency aid to Ukraine, a massive infusion of cash that could help support the nation as Russian forces suffer battlefield losses in their nine-month-old invasion.
The administration's funding request, which comes as lawmakers begin their post-election session, also seeks $9.25 billion in COVID-19 funding to prepare for a possible winter surge and help combat the virus nationwide. Government funding expires in mid-December, and the Ukraine and COVID aid would be part of the package to fund the government through the end of September 2023.
The request for such a sizable amount of money for Ukraine comes as the GOP is poised to take control of the House following the midterm elections. House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy, who is in line to become speaker, has warned that Republicans wouldn’t support writing a “blank check” for Ukraine if they capture the majority.
