It didn't sound like sarcasm to me.  You fell for the "Trump is a Russian asset" stuff?

The ghost of Richard Daley:  Democrats aren't creating disorder; they're preserving it

 

In 1968, in the midst Democratic convention riots, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley famously declared, "The policeman isn't there to create disorder; the policeman is there to preserve disorder."

Democratic state election officials appear to have adopted a similar approach to the upcoming election.  In states such as North Carolina and Michigan, Democrats are fighting to keep the name of Robert Kennedy, Jr. on the ballot even though he withdrew from the race and endorsed former president Donald Trump.  These are key states where the misplacement of even 1 percent of votes could turn the outcome of not just the state but the entire election.  [...]

Liz Cheney's Kamala Endorsement:  A Symptom of Elite Panic

 

Perhaps my favorite moment in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s speech announcing the suspension of his presidential campaign and endorsement of Donald Trump was the rhetorical question, "Who needs a policy when you have Trump to hate?"  I was reminded of that in the last couple of days as first Liz and then her father, ####### Cheney, declared that they were endorsing Kamala Harris for president.

I guess the legacy media regards those endorsements as big news because if you try to search for some of the blistering attacks Liz Cheney unleashed on Harris in the past, all you get is a solid wall of rah-rah headlines about what a big deal it is that the Cheneys turned on their party and endorsed Kamala.  My own feeling is that Ann Coulter got it exactly right in her amusing post on X:  [...]

'Moderate' Tester Goes Kamikaze in Montana

 

If you don't live in Montana, you can be forgiven for thinking that "Shady Sheehy" is a mixed drink popular in the old-time Irish saloons of Butte.

But it's not.  "Shady Sheehy" is the disparaging nickname hung on his election opponent by U.S. Sen. Jon Tester.  Long before Montana's June primary, Tester and his super PAC surrogates had dominated the airwaves with ads targeting Montana businessman Tim Sheehy as the worst possible candidate – an out-of-state millionaire who was seemingly shady because he had too much money!

Those ads mostly complained about how Sheehy had glitzy mansions and a ranch where he charged other "out-of-staters" to come and hunt on his wildlife-rich property.  If you didn't know any better, you would think that Jon Tester was running as a far-left anti-capitalist liberal whose campaign was based on class envy.  But no.  Tester is a candidate who [...]

The Cheneys, famously supportive of and supported by the Military Industrial Complex, supporting a Democrat, because the Republican is infamous for his disruptive geopolitical strategies?

 

I would never have guessed. 😒

ABC News 'Moderators' Made a Joke of the Presidential Debate

 

If moderators do their job correctly, nobody talks about them afterward.  Unless one becomes a legendary moderator like Jim Lehrer, debate watchers don't remember who the moderator was.  Back in 2012 CNN debate moderator Candy Crowley let her bias get the best of her and incorrectly "corrected" Republican nominee Mitt Romney's remarks about Barack Obama and the attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, and her credibility was ruined.  [...]

 

Not a single sentient being expected ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis to be impartial in any way given their history of reporting on the candidates, but the partisanship and unequal treatment of the candidates went far beyond any expectations and set a new standard for how not to moderate a debate.  [...]

Moderators Call Timeout To Huddle And Discuss Strategy With Kamala

 

U.S. — Midway through the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis called a timeout to discuss strategy with Harris.

"Um, excuse me, we'd like to take ten minutes please," said Muir to the candidates an hour into the debate.  "Vice President Harris, would you please join us backstage for, um, a quick huddle?  Should only take a second."  [...]

Putin benefits more by having Kackling Kamala in the WH then Trump, so regardless of the sarcasm, he most certainly wants her to win.  Also, Iran and China are in the bag for Kamala.  Beyond that, I see you have fallen for the gaslighting by the left/Democrats you may want to seek out other news sources than those in the MSM.
