So you’re saying that laws should be enforced selectively?? Somehow, I don’t imagine that you would give Hilary the same benefit of the doubt…

Or maybe you would, if you figured that would only pull votes away from Harris, seeing as there aren’t many likely defections to be had among Trump-leaning voters….

Nice fig leaf there…..

Might want to cut that booze with a bit more water, dude.

Shane

You mean any more than anyone else?

Really? When he ran for congress he wasn't vetted? When he announced his candidacy for POTUS, the Bush administration/FBI/CIA etc. didn't look into his credentials? Really? It sounds stupid whether you say it or Donald Trump says it.

Funny, Trump didn't debate any of the other candidates this year, but the GOP 'anointed' his babbling idiot a$$. Anybody watch interview with Musk? Gibbering idiot, stuck in the past.

(Now cue the 'TDS' comments from the minions. >;-) )

Really? I could have sworn the voters nominated him via a primary election.

We know with absolute certainty that the Democrat party is being manipulated by a handful of Soros types pulling the strings in the Dem party…but there are many of those Dem voters that still don’t get it.

According to them. The citizens are now the biggest threat to democracy

People are very , very easily manipulated, very, very easily swayed by biased media, and a smiling speech. We get on bowsite and debate Harris or Trump, When what we really should be doing is searching for real answers like.....What happened in Nevada?...and why did joe Biden suddenly step down?....And how or why was Kamala Harris suddenly and rather quickly made a canidate?......She has done NOTHING in the last 4 years. But suddenly she is the new shining star in the Liberal news.?

The sad part is.......people don't see it.

But think about that, if you become so far left in your thinking that you actually approve of some of the stuff the left promotes, could you really expect rational thinking?

And democracy?.....come on, the more people they can sway left, manipulate, convince.

The more the world changes to "their" way of thinking. I'm watching and it's coming. One day you will wake up, and you will be living in a world, and time, that was already predicted.

Keep your lamps lit.

He’s definitely in deep water since it’s pretty cut and dry that he doesn’t spend 6 months at a time in New York, that being said, college students and servicemembers retain their permanent residency while away temporarily despite them being gone for more than 6 months per year. The argument will be that he was traveling for his wife’s work and wasn’t a permanent resident of Cali despite living there the majority of the year. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out, but one thing is for sure - NY viewed him as a threat to the establishment campaigns and wanted him gone. That alone makes me proud to support him.

Hunter Biden sought assistance from the U.S. government for a potentially lucrative energy project in Italy while his father was vice president, according to newly released records and interviews.

The records, which the Biden administration had withheld for years, indicate that Hunter Biden wrote at least one letter to the U.S. ambassador to Italy in 2016 seeking assistance for the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, where he was a board member.

Embassy officials appear to have been uneasy with the request from the son of the sitting vice president on behalf of a foreign company.

“I want to be careful about promising too much,” wrote a Commerce Department official based in the U.S. Embassy in Rome who was tasked with responding. ________________

This info in itself is just a small snapshot of what was going on and not all that damning- though it's redacted all to hell so who knows. Did they release it prior to the Dem convention to keep Biden-our next Mt Rushmore bust- in their back pocket, essentially telling him they will blow him up if he doesn't play ball?

So much corruption....

That said, I sorta wish he was because I'm happy he will pull folks off where they mostly are (DJT) if they are considering him and bring them to vote for RFKjr. I see that as a win for the United States of America.

Jaq, it's not a "threat to..." if it happened, it's a "loss to...". It's a complete circumvention of democracy. The democrats found a loop-hole and used it. Happens one way or another with both parties. It will put many voters in a very difficult situation; will they vote for democracy, or will they vote for someone they hate?

Um they are not eligible to vote, but got a ballot automatically since the MN DMV can't figure that out? No, its likely on purpose just as Walz wants it. Non-citizens voting in state and Federal elections. Of course, he says it was a safety issue not one for voter fraud potential.

I'm also not pissed because I was voting for Biden/Harris. That's what everyone who voted for Biden in primaries was voting for. If it was February 25, and he passed or had to stop, people were happy to have her step in. So if he decided he couldn't go (I still think he could - he looks ugly doing it, and that's not great electoral politics in today's world), Harris being the candidate makes sense. It's also not a loophole - until the convention, nothing is generally set. So, in this case, he stepped down, she gets the nod, and the D-leaning folks think: "Great, it's Joe V2, but 20~ years younger"

Conversely, if I was a DJT voter, I'd have to remember that the reason he doesn't have the same VP running with him, nor endorsing him and instead speaking against him, is because DJT's followers made a hanging gallows and chanted HANG MIKE PENCE while trashing the capitol building and trying to stop the normal function of government. DJT's last VP, rather than being "next man standing", thinks DJT is not the person for the job.

Do I agree with all of VP Harris's ideas/policy positions, etc.? No. There is stuff I won't be psyched about if she gets elected and manages to pull it off.

I'm never going to love every position for any politician - I hope that's not abnormal. But overall, I'd rather have her than DJT, and it's not close. And I'm excited to go check that box for her in November.

Democrats remind me of the 3 monkeys. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Unless it’s Trump or any other red candidate. Then somehow they see, hear, and speak it incessantly. Funny how certain people don’t recognize it.

How proud will you be if important policy decisions need to be made? You understand it's a false regime and unknowns behind the scenes are making the decisions...and essentially you are saying thats OK.

Personally I think Shade Mountain hit the nail on the head. It's beyond Trump v Harris....we need our country back; the rule of law, Dignity, Respect across the globe, fair and equal rather than freebie for political reasons, and accountability.

We have lost all of that.

Open borders- Let in the worst criminals, gang members and terrorists so they can maybe garner a few more votes to stay in power all while flipping the bird to the Avg working American

Green Agenda- Sounds good in theory, but instead it's a huge debacle spending money in all the wrong places like giving high net worth folks a discount on an E car or windmills in the ocean- what a joke. The Dems have set us back a decade or more and cost every citizen dearly. All while one forest fire puts out 1,000x more soot than any of these proposals solves.

Inflation Reduction- Ha Ha, Groceries, fuel, insurance, power- all double digit increases and rising....but conveniently the Gov stats EXCLUDE those items.

Crime is UP- but wait, the Dems claim its down. Yeah, when they don't compile crime from every area with a large % of areas not reporting - are people really fooled? It seems some are.

Energy- So many screw ups there

Foreign policy- Look at the world right now under the WEAK leadership of Biden Harris and tell me its not a more dangerous place than when that Bully Trump was president- and you would be lying. They couldn't even leave Afghanistan without a debacle.

How did things get so bad...so quickly? Simple, It's Policy from the Dem party.

Harris is the nominee. Challenge it court if you like and lose. That's how great of a point Lou made. LMAO. Can't make this stuff up. What a bunch of Trump parrots.

I think it's more embarrassment. The manipulators behind Biden- a barely functioning adult...and now Harris who is dumb as a brick have so much control over their voter base. Those manipulators are the ones that gave Trump his power. Sure they tried to vilify him with their partisans...but the backlash is what has created a lot of Trumps power with his fan base.

Doesn't say much for the avg intellect in our country that they would elect a Biden.

Its emb

The fact that anyone, let alone hunters, would vote for this cackling pile of garbage to be the leader of rhe Free World makes me physically ill. I'm not a Trump fan, either. But I vote for policy and the Supreme Court. Still waiting for some of the Bowsite libs to defend her policies and record. Nope, it's all about hating Orange Man.

But, when a wild hare liberal/independent candidate appears to be cutting into Cackle's support, suddenly it is critical!

Pete

i dont disagree with you...but do you see the hypocrisy in your statement?

Like how some are gullible enough to think that Jan 6 was a "threat to our democracy" when it really wasn't and keep repeating that lie?

It's pretty clear that a good portion of the country would vote for a sack of hammers before Trump, even though we know how life was during his four years, compared to the past four years. That, in itself, is frightening.

domcrats will do the same. why should that be a surprise?

Energy Policy- we need to continue to push all of the above energy sources and continue to invest in new technologies.

Tax Policy- my taxes went up under Trump. Close loop holes for the rich. Eliminate the Trump tax breaks for the Uber wealthy like himself.

Healthcare Policy- we need national health care.

Environmental policy- Harris is not proposing to gut environmental and conservation regulations nor getting rid of long-standing envirnmental laws that protect habitat, species, and human health. I'm for continued protection and conservation...the laws republicans passed in the early 1970s (+50 years). So is Harris.

SCOTUS- I disagree with most of the recent decisions coming out of the court. I also want to see ethics laws passed for SCOTUS so they can't accept gifts. Harris is for it. Trump not so much.

Lastly, one campaign is running on fear and doom (Trump) and one is running on hope and change (Harris).

There you go Lou.

48% of the SCOTUS decisions in the past year were unanimous. Numerous others had Barrett and/or other conservative justices siding with the Left.

How do you know Trump is against ethics rules for SCOTUS?

You are imagining that her platform includes things you support. But since she hasn't revealed anything, and keeps changing her position on things she supported or rejected only months ago, you have no idea what she supports or does not.

This is like the campaign of the Magic Negro (a phrase coined by a BLACK columnist from the LA Times, so leave the racist BS..) She is pretending to move to the center, against her entire history, and allowing the media to invent her into a creature they can adore. Then if she is elected, she will devolve into a super-woke monster.

Hope and change? Change from thr past four years? Hope for what? Their entire campaign premise is based around "Joy". WTF is that as a policy direction? I find no joy in higher taxes, unfettered immigration, fentanyl and sex trafficking as a cottage industry, giving gift cards to illegals, allowing boys in girls bathrooms, teaching about sexual perversion in elementary school, criminals being released without bail, no penalty for robbery under $1000, encouraging Democratic rioters to keep rioting while bailing them out and not prosecuting anyone, forcing people to buy EVs by mandate, gun confiscation from lawful gun owners through forced "buybacks", giving drivers licenses to illegals in states where ballots are mailed out to everyone with a drivers license. The silencing of free speech. And on and on.

Fear and doom? Hell yes, I fear four years of the most super-woke administration in history actually coming to pass.

It absolutely did due to the loss of deductions. Ask my tax accountant. I'll be sure to tell him that you said he was wrong.

Now you know why some don't post why they support Harris. All you get back are insults and Trump parrot word salad. Oh and there's the incessant misogyny by Trumpers. If Trump loses this will be a big reason why IMO. Trumpers and their rabid attacks, name calling, misogyny, threats, talk of civil war, etc. unhinged like you and Trump.

Misogyny. Right. I would hate that creature's policies whether male, female, or something in between

I think most Americans have had enough of the demonizing of other human beings. The misogyny sure won't help the republican cause. But we will see in a few weeks. I still won't make my final decision until after the debates.

Lastly, the soft coup stuff, it's a losing argument and just silly. Biden stepped aside voluntarily. It makes you and Trump sound scared of Harris. By the way, who did you vote for in the presidential republican primary in 2020? Oh that's right...

Keep making stuff up...

Honest as the day is long !!

Except he hasn’t been seen fulfilling anything since he was pushed out. Keep hiding him until it’s over…this country needs action, not slack-tion.

and Democrats LIKED IT and SUPPORTED IT

Democracy is a talking point

how do you account for the fact that he just spoke at a white house event a few minutes ago? AI? Hologram? Body Double?

Keep bearing false witness...it won't change who is the democrat nominee. No matter how much childish kicking and screaming you do.

Vice President Kamala Harris will call for a federal ban on food and grocery price gouging on Friday.

Within her first 100 days in office, the Democratic presidential candidate will push for the first-ever federal ban on “corporate price gouging” by food companies to prevent them from “unfairly jacking up prices on consumers,” her campaign said Wednesday. Harris also wants to provide the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and state attorneys general with the authority to impose stiff penalties on corporations that violate such a ban.

Would love to have been a fly on the wall leading up to Biden's "voluntary" step aside.

Check that...yes I can.

There's a real easy solution to this. Take it to court. So telling that the Trump legal team (what's left of them after criminal charges and disbarment) hasn't done that. But keep parroting Trump. It does wonders with independent voters.

It doesn't bother me one bit that he "stepped down". Not worried about a "soft coup". Personally don't think it changed the outcome of the election. I just find it odd that people believe it happened the way we were told it happened.

I haven't seen many rich grocery store owners....but I know of a shit load of rich pharmaceutical companies. where's those promises? Also, how in the hell would she ever accomplish this? It's not legal and it's not possible. Especially in the world post Chevron.

You guys should just leave Ks Alone. Not worth the effort. Has nothing to add unless you want info on bat studies and bird windmill kills. Probably hunts two -four days a year

That said, sounds like White Castle is offering 10 cheeseburgers for $7.99, as a temporary discount due to inflation.

Have to be willing to go first...

# even if they are destructive to our environment, plants, animals, humans? We put up solar over habitat and fields for grazing or growing plants, wind turbines kill birds an oceanic habitat, stop fishing and hinder our naval defense. Battery our grid cannot handle, and batteries safety is questionable at best.

Tax Policy- my taxes went up under Trump. Close loop holes for the rich. Eliminate the Trump tax breaks for the Uber wealthy like himself. # I'll simply state I have never been hired by a poor person! Wealthy people invest create jobs and drive the economy, and I am not just talking about million and billionaires, Middle class and upper middle class.

Healthcare Policy- we need national health care.

# I call total BS, Talk to Canadian residents and the slow care, poor care, or being sent to America for care they cannot receive in their own country. It still costs them monthly plus the huge tax they pay for it. My wife had surgery here in WI 3 or her 4 nurses were from Ontario, because of the failed health care system, care, and money. If you can't afford improve your position and earn. We will disagree on health care being a right I believe.

Environmental policy- Harris is not proposing to gut environmental and conservation regulations nor getting rid of long-standing envirnmental laws that protect habitat, species, and human health. I'm for continued protection and conservation...the laws republicans passed in the early 1970s (+50 years). So is Harris.

# This country is so over regulated and being choked to death because of it. All this green energy in 50 years will be laughed at and the damage to the environment will be the sad. Harris and the green movement are destroying more than others in my opinion.

SCOTUS- I disagree with most of the recent decisions coming out of the court. I also want to see ethics laws passed for SCOTUS so they can't accept gifts. Harris is for it. Trump not so much.

#Not sure which decision you disagree: Presidential immunity, I would hope so, otherwise no President will be able to make any decision without fear of retaliation once out of office. The ruling only affects actions while in office. Hard decisions have to be made, take out a terrorists (to us) leader should be tried or sued ? The use of courts as a form of retaliation or impacting elections should concerning for us all. Roe v Wade: Constitutionally this was always a flawed decision and should never have been made originally. This is a states rights issue and can be change is decided by the states through a Constitutional Amendment.

Lastly, one campaign is running on fear and doom (Trump) and one is running on hope and change (Harris).

#I see way more from anyone but Harris-Biden-and Walz. 22 percent inflation we cannot afford more of this, illegal immigration by the millions, rampant crime.

One of the only populations of prairie chickens left east of the Mississippi River is about to have solar panels built ontop of the small fragment of land they call home.

Prairie chickens used to expand nearly nationwide, and yet here we are driving more nails in their coffin.

It’s up for public comment here

in the same way nixon "VOLUNTARILY" ended his presidency. full stop.

not dead and not in the hospital.

There is a cost of all energy sources. Renewable energy has less impact (cradle to grace) compared to other energy sources and the gap is getting better but the day through innovation and efficiencies. I think you forgot the cost of climate change to wildlife and habitat. Underwater turbine structures actually create habitat. Agreed, batteries are not a long term solution to renewable energy intermittence. I guess you think we should just give up then. Lots of things kill birds and wind turbines pale in comparison to house cats, cars, glass building, cars, transmission/distribution lines, climate change. Please note the Audubon Society (bird conservation organization) supports renewable energy because they know climate change will be more destructive.

"# I'll simply state I have never been hired by a poor person! Wealthy people invest create jobs and drive the economy, and I am not just talking about million and billionaires, Middle class and upper middle class."

I get so tired of this trickle down stuff. Make people more rich and it's good for me lol. Elon Musk would not be where he is today without buyers and demand from the middle class. I'd rather invest in good ideas instead of rich people. I support progressive tax.

"# This country is so over regulated and being choked to death because of it. All this green energy in 50 years will be laughed at and the damage to the environment will be the sad. Harris and the green movement are destroying more than others in my opinion."

Funny that most of the regulations have been around +50 years but yet our economy has sky-rocket to the top relative to the rest of the world. The historical economic numbers don't show it's choked off. I think cowboys on horses said the same thing about automobiles as you do about alternative energy sources.

"#Not sure which decision you disagree: Presidential immunity, I would hope so, otherwise no President will be able to make any decision without fear of retaliation once out of office. The ruling only affects actions while in office. Hard decisions have to be made, take out a terrorists (to us) leader should be tried or sued ? The use of courts as a form of retaliation or impacting elections should concerning for us all."

Funny I don't remember any president being sued or prosecuted by the DOJ for official duties prior to this ruling. Asking to "find votes" or confiscate voting machines based on internet conspiracy theories is not official duties. They just made a person above the law in the US. I'm also talking about citizens united and chevron just to name two. There are others and more to come.

"Roe v Wade: Constitutionally this was always a flawed decision and should never have been made originally. This is a states rights issue and can be change is decided by the states through a Constitutional Amendment."

That's your opinion and I disagree. However, I'm not for unlimited abortion rights. My stance is similar to Trump in 2016. But why not just send every law back to the states. What's next, showing papers when you cross state lines.

"#I see way more from anyone but Harris-Biden-and Walz. 22 percent inflation we cannot afford more of this, illegal immigration by the millions, rampant crime."

Inflation is down to 2.9%. Illegal immigration is down since Biden took executive action. I agree with Biden and Harris that congress should act and had a bipartisan bill until Trump scuttled it for his own political purposes. Violent crime is down under Biden vs Trump.

Screwball- I won't reply to any of your responses as it just hurts the brain to read what you post. Advice, do some research before posting.

This is another example of why many posters won't dissent. You get thrown heaping piles of made up crap from people who are either so biased they don't care or simple to intellectually lazy to look it up themselves. Some don't care to want to know the truth or form an opinion based on facts.

Lastly- to the OP, based on HDE and others profound lack of understanding of elementary U.S. civics and social studies, we are not a democracy. LMAO. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad. It shows you how easily people are brainwash to not to believe the most elementary of information and historical truths. A constitutional republic is a type of democracy. It may not be direct but absolutely we are a democracy.

Have at it.

KS, I rarely post on politics due to the koolaid drinkers on both sides, as you are one also and do not look at the words of our constitution. But your level of revisionist theory and fact is nauseating. I could not, not respond. I received multiple degrees and taught Civics, History, Economics, Geography for over 30 years. Read and researched and continue the same. My classrooms were research-fact based with students learning to think on their own. So you should look at facts instead of your feelings.

as is often the case you will be ridiculed...accused of being full of crap...intellectually lazy...and a whole host of other things by the self proclaimed smartest people in the room. its their modus operandi.

Added: Conspiracy theorist in me, I find it hard to believe Israel, US, and other intelligence agencies knew nothing about October 7th, July 13th, Jan 6th, December 7th, Nov 22nd, etc.

She has done a complete 180 on her past to make her look more moderate. Easy to see its lies to get elected.

She now wants tips untaxed…but a couple years ago she was the deciding vote in Congress as VP to tax tips.

She has said, “ we all need to be more woke”

She supported and exacerbated the George Floyd riots and is behind the program to provide bail money to the violent protestors that were arrested

“ The Border is secure”

She wants to eliminate private HC insurance plans and go full bore Socialized medicine.

I think the worst part of the New Improved Kamala, is she is a pawn in the back pocket of Soros.

Do we really want to be more like Cuba and Venezuela?

Folks on Twitter digging up old video of her....compare that to the absolute fake Kamala they are trotting out there now- it's unbelievable.

Hopefully the manipulators behind the scenes in the Dem party get their azzes handed to them and moderates in the party eventually prevail.

Right now they are getting steamrolled with guys like Joe Manchin throwing up their hands and bowing out ....and the mass media is complicit.

Such a simpleton...

Venezuela has these controls- pictured

From NPR linked article, “the Nightmare of grocery shopping in Ven.” ( bowsite didn’t like the npr link- I had to dump it)

In Venezuela, government supermarkets sell price-controlled food, making them far cheaper than private stores. But Valero explains that people are allowed in state-run supermarkets just two days per week, based on their ID card numbers. The system is designed to prevent shoppers from buying more than they need and then reselling goods on the black market at a huge markup.

But checkout is like clearing customs in a hostile foreign country. The checkout clerk scrutinizes Valero's ID card and tells her to hold her index finger over a fingerprint scanner.

The clerk scans the merchandise and then informs Anny that, because of rationing, she can buy just two of the three cans of sardines. Then, Valero and Benaventi must produce Jeremy's birth certificate to prove the baby is theirs and that they really do need the diapers.

"This is such a waste of time, and we have to do it every week," Valero says. "My husband risks losing his job because he's here with me shopping. And on top of that, we can only buy two of each item.

Newsom news conf; Gavin Newsom: Thanks to all my hard work, we have recovered $7.2 million worth of stolen goods

Reality: In just 2022, retailers in California lost $8.720 BILLION in revenue to theft

Math: Gavin got back .0825% of stolen goods

The very popular Oakland In andOut Burger - Kamalas old stomping grounds- that always had a line down the street closed. People getting carjacked while in line and employees getting attacked. My buddy a 78 yr old man was at Oaklands Alta Bates hospital visiting a friend from Cal, and he was dragged out of his car, pepper sprayed and they stole his car.

???????????????? to the Dem policy destroying America one city at a time.

Heck, why don’t you Kamala fans come visit what she started in Oakland….so you can see the future under her policy.

her campaign ads that talk about her tough border control are almost laughable......almost as laughable as the people that are falling for it hook line and sinker.
