They think Biden is such a great person, and yet look how quickly the party has turned against him for the 2024 election results.

Democrats truly are mercenary.

Biggest reason they like Biden is that the corrupt, pedophile bastard was so morally bankrupt, he makes them look like paragons of virtue by comparison.

Moral relativism is a central, defining characteristic of all Dim'Rats - and especially DUmp'rats.  :popcorn:

The mental gymnastics of insisting that LIEden was totally fit mentally, then saying he was not and should have dropped out earlier, then blaming him for Kammie's defeat, then trying to make him a sympathetic figure is more than I could do. Pretzellating reality is not among my skills, and I've avoided learning that skill as best I could.

They're basing that off the word of people who knew him in school?!

Democrats pull the "nice person" act constantly, and their voters fall for it every time.

James Talarico really is a good person.

I was just talking to a friend here in Austin,
whose kids went to school with James.

She says they all love him. He's the genuine
article.

no offense to anyone here from Maine, it is a beautiful state, but the above phrase just doesn't strike the fear I'm sure mainer hoped it would.


It would sound - and be - more impressive coming from a rural Texan (or a rural resident of most states).

True. I thought of Texas and Montana as two states that could make such statements.

BREAKING: John Bolton to Plead Guilty to Retaining Classified Information

https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2026/06/04/breaking-john-bolton-to-plead-guilty-to-retaining-classified-information-n4953576

John Bolton is headed to federal court to plead guilty to one count of retaining classified information under a deal with the Justice Department. Under the deal, he could avoid prison time, according to the Associated Press.

Quote
The deal would resolve a criminal case filed in October that charged Bolton with 18 counts of either retaining or disseminating classified information, including diary-like notes from his time in government that officials say he shared with his family members as he was preparing a memoir about his time in office.

Under the agreement, Bolton would also face a $2.25 million fine, said the person, who insisted on anonymity to discuss a deal that had not been made public. Any prison sentence would be capped at five years, but the agreement allows for him to avoid time behind bars, though the punishment will ultimately be up to a judge.
...
At the center of the case are diary-style notes Bolton kept during his government service. Prosecutors say he shared those notes with family members while he was preparing his memoir about his time in the Trump administration. The Trump administration attempted to block the book The Room Where It Happened prior to its publication, arguing that it contained classified material. The administration lost that fight, but the current plea agreement focuses on the classified notes Bolton shared with relatives, not on material that appeared in the published book.

Many on the left have tried to frame the case against Bolton as part of a pattern of “retribution” from Trump against his enemies. But even CNN had to admit the case had merit.

The source used in the article is the AP, so have a block of salt on hand.

DU-grade Progs will, of course, whine, "What about Trump?" Well, President Trump had the authority to possess classified materials. Bolton could only view and possess classified materials, including what he created, withing the scope and locations of his duty, subject to the authority of the President ... President Trump. Bolton foolishly self-exposed by including classified information in his Hate-Trump book.
