Is The Scope Of The Ukraine Scandal Too Much For A Low IQ Trump Supporter To Grasp?

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 16 hours ago
*"We Met The Enemy And They Are Us" by Nancy Ohanian* Kentucky's PVI is R+15. Louisiana's is R+11. In 2016, Trump won Kentucky 1,202,971 (62.52%) to 628,854 (32.68%). Louisiana was also a strong Trump state, but not nearly as strong as Kentucky. Trump won 1,178,638 (58.09%) to 780,154 (38.45%). Tuesday, Trump's favorite governor, Matt Bevin, was defeated after Trump pulled out all the stops to help his reelection effort, including an election-eve rally in Lexington, which resulted in a massive county-wide 2-1 landslide against Bevin and for the victorious Andy Beshear.

Whistleblower’s lawyer announced coup over two years ago

Norma at Collecting My Thoughts - 16 hours ago
Mark Zaid, the whistleblower's lawyer, reported in 2017 that the coup against a lawfully elected U.S. President had started. Now all they had to do was make up a crime. So there you go--Democrats trying to destroy the President we elected. Crime? He beat their awful, terrible, no good candidate--not fair--he wasn't even a politician. https://lidblog.com/mark-zaid/ It was enough to suck in the gullible and dishonest, but also the wise and self-righteous. https://www.glennbeck.com/chalkboard/dissecting-the-great-ukraine-lie?

What happened to Virginia? asks Michael Smith

Norma at Collecting My Thoughts - 16 hours ago
"Joe Morrissey, the Democrat Virginia lawmaker who was jailed four years ago after the sex scandal involving his teenage secretary, wins a Virginia state Senate seat by a massive margin. Ralph Northam who appeared in a KKK costume or blackface (he isn't sure) is still the Virginia's Governor. Justin Fairfax, credibly accused of the sexual battery of an ex-girlfriend, is still Virginia's Lieutenant Governor.

Steve M. at No More Mister Nice Blog - 16 hours ago
Pundits continue to believe that some Republicans might eventually turn against President Trump on Ukraine, but *The Washington Post* reports that House Republicans are planning to blame all the Ukraine crimes on underlings. House Republicans’ latest plan to shield President Trump from impeachment is to focus on at least three deputies — U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, Trump’s lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani, and possibly acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney — who they say could have acted on their own to influence Ukraine policy. The story they've conc... more »

In October 2009, I suffered a heart attack, that led to quadruple bypass surgery. Since then, I've had other medical issues, but my heart has behaved itself. On Tuesday morning (November 5th, which is, perhaps appropriately in this case, Guy Fawkes Day), I had brunch about 10 a.m., carried on with my morning's work, and took a brief nap during the early afternoon. When I woke up, I had a tight feeling in my chest, not unlike indigestion, but it grew in intensity, centered over my heart, and I began to get radiated pain in my left arm. Sounds familiar, no?

Taiwan Is Investing In Kamikaze Drones To Fend Off A Chinese Invasion

While it uses the same grip and magazines from the highly similar PMR-30, it ditches the partial slide of that gun for a fully enclosed upper receiver with an internal bolt. It also incorporates features of military PDWs like the MP7 and P90 with a highly MP7 style collapsing stock and P90 style charging handle.
