Truth..


President Biden on Friday tried to beat back doubts about his fitness following a disjointed debate performance the night before, firing up a crowd of supporters with an energetic speech that accused former President Donald J. Trump of being a “one-man crime wave.”

“I know I’m not a young man, to state the obvious,” he said.  “I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to. But I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong.”
With the stakes sky high as Democrats around the country openly discussed whether he should abandon his bid for a second term, Mr. Biden repeatedly cast the election as a choice between right and wrong, morality and criminality, an honest man and a convicted criminal.


Comment:

*What was the truth about invading the Country of Libya?

*How many civilians were killed then and still struggling as the country split?

*How many civilians were killed in Syria as a result of our military intervention?

*  What was the amount of money Hunter Biden received from the Ukrainian businesses for being a consultant?

Just a thought.

Gratitude..

 
The Supreme Court overturned the bribery conviction of a former Indiana mayor on Wednesday in an opinion that narrows the scope of public corruption law.

The high court’s 6-3 opinion sided with James Snyder, who was convicted of taking $13,000 from a trucking company after prosecutors said he steered about $1 million worth of city contracts the company’s way.
Snyder, a Republican, has maintained his innocence.  His attorneys argued before the high court that prosecutors hadn’t proved there was a “quid pro quo” exchange agreement before the contracts were awarded and that prosecuting officials for gratuities given after the fact unfairly criminalizes normal gift giving. 
Just a thought.

Morality..

 

Donna Brazile came to the Democratic National Committee to steady a ship rocked by an email hacking scandal and under fire for allegedly favoring Hillary Clinton during the primary process. 
Now, thanks to a new email hacking scandal, the DNC’s interim chair is at the center of a controversy of her own — with Clinton’s campaign again caught in the mix.
After hacked emails published Monday by WikiLeaks appeared to reveal Brazile, during her time as a CNN commentator, giving advance notice to Clinton’s camp about a debate question, Brazile has lost a CNN contract (which had been suspended since Brazile took over the DNC in July) and found herself used as fodder for one of Donald Trump’s favorite talking points: that in this “rigged” election, the DNC has been in the bag for Clinton since the beginning.

Inmate..

 

Bridget Townsend

Texas man who admitted that he kidnapped, sexually assaulted and fatally shot the 18-year-old girlfriend of his drug dealer was set to be executed on Wednesday.

The remains of Bridget Townsend weren't found nearly two years after she vanished, when Ramiro Gonzales, having received two life sentences for kidnapping and raping another woman, led authorities to the spot in Southwest Texas where he left her body.

The inmate’s attorneys have appealed to the US Supreme Court, arguing in part he should be ineligible for the death penalty under state law because he is no longer dangerous.

Scored..

 

Monica Lewinsky haunts Hillary
Monica Lewinsky wasn't some innocent 14-year-old high-school student in 1995, involved in some kind of "Mean Girls" schoolyard feud. She was a college graduate when she scored a hard-to-get White House internship. "I fell in love with my boss in a 22-year-old sort of way. It happens. But my boss was the President of the United States," said Lewinsky, nonchalantly. Lady Lewinsky left out that her boss was also a married father and that his wife and daughter were up on the second floor of the White House, while she was down in the Oval Office fully engaged in the affair she called "her everything".    By 

2016..

 

Docs..

 
Monica Lewinsky said “i awakened angry about the documents case in Florida. it is INSANE that it hasn’t moved forward to trial, and i hope judge cannon is impeached,” wrote Lewinsky on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter. Daily mail.

Comment:

Ms. Lewinsky has an opinion worth to be shared by the media about classified docs, but skipped the other Classified docs where the prosecutor indicates that the current president doesn't remember...etc but still wants to be a president for four more years.  Just a thought. .....

Help..

Dismissed..

 

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday he had replaced the commander of the Joint Forces of Ukraine’s Armed Forces, Lt. Gen. Yuri Sodol, after reports surfaced that he had performed badly in the 28-month-old war against Russia.

Zelenskyy, speaking in his nightly video address, gave no reason for the dismissal.

Sodol’s removal, one of a series of personnel changes, followed publication of a letter by the head of Ukraine’s revered Azov regiment, Bohdan Krotevych, in which he alleged that Sodol’s actions had led to serious military setbacks.

Post on the Telegram messaging app, said an unnamed general “has killed more Ukrainian soldiers than any Russian general.”

And the saga continues.  Just a thought.
