Right decisions are not always popular. Attacking Iran is an example of this, and did hurt Rs.

That said, reality is seldom as simple as a complex event being caused by one person. In this case, Congress has SAT on important legislation for two years, and some R Congress Critters paid the price for that inaction.

Have DUpipo digested the loss of CA's Prop 40 AND the win of Prop 42?

The Epstein Files were made public, with redactions of innocent people's names, a year and a half or so ago, in compliance with e law passed by Congress that required their release, with the names of innocents (janitors and maids, incidental news figures, people who did financial business with Epstein, etc.). MisRepresentative Ro Khanna brilliantly decided to try to gin up an issue about the redactions by releasing the names of four of them ... who all proved to be uninvolved with Epstein's perversions, two of them not even having met Epstein or his businesses in any capacity.

In the Hate-Fantasy World of Trump-Haters, though, the fact that the Epstein Files in no way incriminated or tarred Trump means the files were not released. In that same fantasy world, the "former 13YO" the FBI interviewed 4 times, getting 4 substantially different stories is claimed to have been covered up, and a new "former 8YO" has recently popped up claiming Trump raped her at that age (there's a bloody, possibly fatal, reason that claim is physically absurd).

In sum, the Dems' Trump-Epstein-connection fantasy has joined:

* Dems' Trump-Russia Collusion fantasy;

* Chimpy McCokespoon

* G. W. Bush went AWOL;

* G. H. W. Bush flew in an SR-71 to Paris to dekay the release of the Iranian hostages;

* G. H. W. Bush got the Navy Cross (or DFC) by ditching a perfectly good TBM Avenger;

* Reagan emptied and shut down California's mental hospitals;

* Reagan beat Jane Wyman.

Quite a litany of pathetic hate fantasies. Hatred and wisdom are seldom companions.

Philly ‘Kristallnacht’ protests at Jewish-owned businesses drowned out, shouted down by huge crowds

PHILADELPHIA — Protests of Jewish-owned businesses in Philadelphia by dozens of masked bikers on the eve of the Kristallnacht anniversary were drowned out by a massive crowd of heckling counter-protesters on Sunday.

The boycott, which targeted restaurants run by Jewish Americans in Philly’s ritzy Rittenhouse Square neighborhood, came face-to-face with a large counterprotest aimed at supporting the businesses.

However, the protest was forced to shut down early, with organizers claiming “safety concerns.”

Lines at the Jewish-owned businesses stretched out the door as supporters publicly come out to back them.

Social media posts for the protest demanded that the businesses leave the city.

“Show these zio business owners that we see them for the disgusting humans they are,” one post said.

Despite the claim that the protest was “anti-Zionist,” one business owner said her mac and cheese shop had nothing to do with Israel, and believes she was targeted because she wears a Star of David.
...
Matt Sheldon, 52, said he came out from New York to show Philly’s Jewish community that they are not alone, as he mocked the small turnout of about 75 boycotters.

“It’s the biggest bust of a boycott there is,” Sheldon told The Post, adding that lines to support the restaurants are through the door.

I don't know Philadelphia demographics, but I have a feeling that many of the counter-protesters and buycotters were not Jewish. Given the MSM's token/local coverage of this event, I also have a feeling that many of the counter-protesters and buycotters were the conservatives that Dems were, 10 years ago, accusing of being antisemites.

Now hear this!

In the end, Trump cost Republicans the House, the Senate, and loss of power across all 50 states. He actually did it. He made America great again.

That is all

If that person acted that way over a drill then I wonder how they would have handled the real thing? I had to hold a shooter at gunpoint just after he killed his daughters ex boyfriend outside the places where i was working. I was working night security for a store in Omaha when this happened, He came into the store and the night manager I was walking wit to go to the deli department saw that he had a gun and told him to drop it. Travis  was ex marine infantry and I was in the infantry in the Army. We had to hold that guy at gun point for 20-30 minutes before any Omaha cop showed up. Not going to lie that was not a fun night.
