1. Maher has been committing truth that DU-grade Progs don't want to hear or be heard, so they hates him, Precious, they hates him.![]()
2. Were I to burn the time to use DU's Search function, how many posts or even threads would I find praising to the, ummm, stratosphere Maher's anti-religious crockumentary film "Religulous"?
"The US Appeals Court for DC has DENIED Joe Biden’s emergency request to block the release of his FIVE HOUR interview with Special Counsel Hur in 2023," Nick Sortor posted late Monday night, finally giving the public a good, hard look at Biden's fitness.
"In a 2-1 decision, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected Biden's attempt to stop the Heritage Foundation from getting the material," CBS News reported through clenched teeth Tuesday morning.
The majority wrote, "We conclude that Biden has not shown a likelihood that the requested materials must be withheld from disclosure."
...
The recordings "gained interest from the Heritage Foundation several years later following an investigation by former special counsel Robert Hur into Biden's handling of sensitive government records after his vice presidency," as CBS put it. You know, the exact same thing that the Biden cabal would later dispatch armed FBI agents to Mar-a-Lago for.
The White House was doing a pinky-swear investigation of itself because of that time when the former Obama veep accidentally left boxes and boxes of classified docs in his garage with his Corvette. At first, Biden was prompted to tell people that his garage is a secure location because, unlike the Trump compound on many well-guarded acres at Mar-a-Lago, Biden's garage door has one of those twisty lock handles on it.
Well, Democrats in Maine really do have some special candidates to choose from. It took months but they finally got rid of Graham Platner after women came forward and accused him of abusive behavior and rape. Democrats finally decided that was a bad look and now they've had to rush to replace him with someone more agreeable. As of this weekend it seems clear that person is Troy Jackson.
...
So who is Troy Jackson? Well, as I already suggested here, he might have some problems of his own. And now that his selection is all but assured, the Washington Post has finally gotten around to reporting that he's a real jerk who doesn't get along with women.QuoteJackson led the state Senate with a confrontational style, at times berating colleagues who disagreed with him, former colleagues said. And his intensity often veered into behavior that people working in Maine politics at the time characterized as bullying, given that he was the most powerful Democrat in the Senate....
...
One person who participated in meetings with Jackson at the time said they felt “nervous” and worried to be in the room with him, because his outbursts could escalate so quickly.
“It was very aggressive,” the person said. “It’s one thing to be screaming when you’re just mad about the world or sad about the world. But his screaming felt like intentional intimidation. So you would feel like then, what else is he going to do?”
But his best known fight was with a female state senator.QuoteJackson and Sanborn were on opposing sides of a bill aimed at lowering prescription drug prices — Jackson supported the bill, while Sanborn argued it was unconstitutional and would be struck down by the courts. As one meeting wrapped up, Jackson grew angry with Sanborn and confronted her, said three people in the room that day and multiple people briefed on the fight. At one point, he threw a water bottle in anger.
“He was an inch from her nose, screaming and hollering and haranguing her,” said one of Jackson’s former legislative colleagues who was in the room and did not see any physical contact.
Multiple former lawmakers recalled that Sanborn left the Senate that day and did not return for several days.
Tom Homan has to be one of the best picks as far as cabinet members, advisers, and staff, of President Trump's second term. Under his watch, the borders have closed, illegal immigration has slowed to a trickle, and that wasn't an easy task after the torrent of illegal entries under Joe Biden.
Mr. Homan doesn't hesitate to go head-to-head with the press, either. On Sunday, he appeared on CBS News' Meet the Press, opposite host Margaret Brennan, and when the "gotcha" questions started, Tom Homan showed he just wasn't having any of it.QuoteMargaret Brennan: These individuals who were chasing the man who died, they didn't have markings on that vehicle that would allow for him to know that they were ICE. It just looked like a car coming after them.
Tom Homan: No. They have emergency lights, officers have insignia, so when they get out of that car and approach the car, you can clearly see they are law enforcement officers.
Margaret Brennan: Well, in the video that has been public, it's not a (inaudible).
Tom Homan: These people... I'm not saying it's a marked car. But it has emergency lights and sirens. So when they pull someone over, they activate emergency lights. A lot of police departments are... I'm in New York City right now, and a lot of NYPD officers are driving unmarked vehicles, and that helps them find people that don't want to be found. Right? So, you know, the bottom line is, we'll see how the investigation plays out, but they'd be alive today if they had simply complied with a vehicle stop by federal law enforcement. Just comply. If you don't think you've been treated right, and they had no reason to stop you, then there are avenues to take in the court.
...
Tom Homan: Yeah, I think body cameras are the way to go. I think body cameras let the American people know what that officer sees when he takes that action.
