This morning, federal prosecutors charged Representative George Santos (R-NY) with seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives, and one count of stealing public funds. The charges are tied to his campaign fundraising and unemployment fraud; prosecutors say he received about $25,000 in unemployment insurance benefits during 2020 and 2021, during the worst of the pandemic, when he was, in fact, making about $120,000 a year.
Just like the abortion issues are bringing out the vote so will the sexual assault issues among others. Trump can play to zombies and yes they will stick with him but Democrats have every substantial talking point now, they just need to use them, repeat over and over, your candidate is a sexual predator, repeat your candidate is a sexual predator, repeat...
Why are you watching Donald Trump? He is a liar and a con man. All he ever does is lie. Why is CNN shamelessly giving a national spotlight to a liar and con man? To boost their sagging ratings. Despicable. That is not news, not journalism. That is self-serving propoganda.
Well hello CNN! Move over, Fox News! I was prepared to be disappointed by a poorly produced town hall meeting that could give Trump a national prime time podium. I was totally unprepared to see what was clearly a well produced campaign event featuring Donald, complete with an audience that was obviously heavily biased toward him, enthusiastically applauding his rambling responses to softball questions from “randomly picked” audience members as he bulldozed the thin voiced moderator Kaitlan Collins all over the stage. All that’s left for CNN is to hire Tucker Carlson.
Absolutely excellent synopsis of the important stories of the day. The story about repub continued obstruction for the debt ceiling is only one example of wasting critical time that should be spent on governing, policies and legislation, such as gun laws, child and family policies, the environment. Simply the present and future. Add to that, the popularity of tfg and his town hall, ridiculously sponsored by CNN, the arrest of George Santos, ($500,00 bail!, where did that come from?) now that the repubs got their vote for Speaker of the House, how optimistic should we be that the American public will dump trump? We can hope more juries find him guilty and that the repub voters wake up. Gratitude to E. Jean Carroll for her courage in standing up to tfg. And the Jury that found tfg guilty. And to every woman and man who are speaking Truth to the power of corruption. Speaking Truth to Power. “As Biden tweeted after the performance: “It’s simple, folks. Do you want four more years of that?”
Shame on CNN for not going into that encounter without a clear and bipartisan strategy for fact checking. I don't THINK tfg is electable but half the country seems perfectly capable of voting for him because they're in love with chaos. I can only hope these points are true:
----A Biden campaign advisor told NBC News White House correspondent Mike Memoli: “Weeks worth of damning content in one hour…. It was quite efficient." ---
Well, every decent news agency BETTER get on that, like yesterday.
----It might turn out that, as journalist Ana Navarro-Cárdenas tweeted, “[Joe Biden] is the winner of tonight’s town-hall.” ----
----As Biden tweeted after the performance: “It’s simple, folks. Do you want four more years of that?---
I hope that everyone reading or quoting from the Prof's letter makes sure to include the sources for her comments. This blog provides proof of everything written unlike the unproven sources for everything produced by the magapublicans and all the rest. No proof there, merely propaganda. keep up the good work HCR.
Watching that pathetic little putz Santos (soooo in need of an introduction of his face to a baseball bat - repeatedly) try to deflect by referring to the "Biden family" - "I'm only here four months and I'm indicted? They're here for years and nothing!" (maybe, little boy, because - like everything else you scum believe - there's no there there). I hope they give him 30 years.
Brilliant, educational, and timely. How you do it so consistently is beyond me. I wish I were a student and you were my professor. But then, I am, I suppose.
Thx Professor. I watched the “show”. The one who shall not be named just proved to me what a scourge he was on America and still is and I’m sorry to have to say that. I believe that he lost tonight, to the people that have enough common sense to see it for what it was, I hope. President Joe truly cares about America. Peace to everybody.
Comer, not Comey in the discussion of the report. Old habits die hard. :) (It's fixed now.)
no, Mr. Biden, I do not “want four more years of that.” Thank you for your common sense and good governance.
CNN is trying to outfox Fox and, in the process, has ruined what was left of its already stained reputation.
What if Congress salaries and pensions were first to stop if negotiated agreements on the debt fall through.

CNN prostelgzing propaganda.

Might as well change all GOP congressional labels to (R-ASSWIPE). It saves time.
I could be wrong, but I think the Rs will blink. Too many of their masters live on capital gains to afford to take a severe haircut.
