If Paxton loses to Talarico in Texas he will be the poster boy for bad candidate selection given how bad Talarico is.

My hope for 2028 is Vance, Rubio or DeSantis is the candidate. All 3 have great character and would be good presidents. My fear is the Dems get control again and not only turn back on the taxpayer spigots to their NGO's but learn from California how to rig elections at a national level. I never will understand why the SAVE act was controversial. With all the back and forth it seems like election integrity should be something everyone wants to ensure.

We have election integrity. There is no election fraud has shown by any source even the Heritage Foundation and by Trump I's commission headed by the fool from Kansas. The majority of states have voter ID. Save America Act is a voter suppression act. A married woman would need a Passport to be allowed to vote in example. The only basis for alleging election fraud is Trump's inability to accept his loss in 2020. I can't believe people are stupid and gullible to the extent that they believe him and this election fraud BS.

The controversial provision in the SAVE act is "proof of citizenship." For many people, that would require something like ordering a birth certificate. Previously, a valid ID is sufficient to register to vote, which is especially notable because states can actually cross reference your ID and contact information with your citizenship status.

The rest of it is pretty standard fare. Dems might have opposed, but Rs would have had a PR advantage on the contents.

I don't see it with Vance. Which means the GOP will nominate him, and considering his ties to Trump/lack of a winning personality, good luck with that nominee.

I don't see why secure elections are an issue. States like California give drivers licenses to anything that breathes, including humans. Just check a box on your drivers license application and you are registered.

"no documentary proof of citizenship. Under California's Motor Voter system, a DMV customer must indicate that he or she is eligible to vote and attest to U.S. citizenship under penalty of perjury. California does not require the person to show a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers as proof of citizenship before being registered"

Seems like there should be a reasonable level of proof required.

You are seeking a cure for a problem that does not exist.

Haha. Liked by the guy JeffT who says fraud does not exist, yet Arizona just dropped 500,000 people from the food stamp program! How much money is that? Tigjhtem the standards and make them prove their eligibility and 50 percent fall off the government tit!

Any real CFO or American would love this news

The reason for the drop was the law changed and Arizona is very slow in processing SNAP applications. No evidence of massive fraud. Keep tilting at windmills.

I HAVE A WIFE AND DAUGHTERS! TALARICO CERTAINLY WANTS THEM RAPED AND MURDERED, MOST DEFINITELY. YOU GOT ME! I'M A TERRIBLE PERSON, SUPPORTING THESE RAPISTS AND MURDERERS.

You have no idea how crazed I think this logic is. It's the kind of argument one makes when he/she knows his position is BS, but feels compelled to say something.

Again, Republicans had every opportunity to reject Ken Paxton, for Cornyn or Hunt. They rejected that for the crook, probably in no small part because being a crook has become appealing to many of them ("he fights"). That was their choice, and now I'll make my choice.

It is not crazed logic to be concern about a candidates positions before sending them to congress.

DO I NEED TO TYPE IT IN ALL CAPS TO DRIVE THE POINT HOME?

WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH RAPISTS AND MURDERERS?

I have no issue with you saying that you agree with Ken Paxton more than James Talarico. Fine by me. But you and the other voters handed the corrupt Paxton to the general electorate - with full knowledge of his corruption - and now are surprised/upset that the people who told you "no way, no how" on Paxton are actually living up to their word.

Trump & his fans have hijacked the GOP with their "you must accept our behavior or our supporters will stay home." That game works both ways, and we now are at a moment where the crazy side of the GOP may have gone too much.

I'd laugh my @SS off if the end result was Senator "Gay Vegan who is going to Hell."

You all turned a comfortable victory into a barn burner, in a year where GOP turnout is no sure thing and Paxton needs a lot of it to avoid losing.

Your tendency to bring tampons randomly into conversation is slightly concerning.

Like the Minny Governor !

Hopefully, pretty unlivable area that doesn’t sustain itself. Hope you are enjoying the 90 degree+ nighttime temps.

Phoenix airport has recorded 0.31” of precipitation YTD. Unlivable, without a lot of outside help.

As ALWAYS weather goes up and down across the Nation !

Temps at Newark, NJ (50 miles from me here W of WP.) July 3-4 104 F +. Scorching Sun.
Temps at home W of WP, 8 AM. July 6th. 62 F. Second day of 3 days of heavy rain. Inground pool overflowing edges.

Solar panels just installed, interior temps 74 F.

Dumbcoach legitimately thought this was worth copy/pasting to this forum.

No new news on Mitch effectiveness as an elected official.

 

[BigWill]

And yes, character matters. It matters when people make decisions, a person of high character would not be threatening to invade Greenland or routinely parroting Vlad Putin's talking points on Ukraine. He/she would not be stealing billions of dollars from the rubes via a variety of Crypto schemes and accepting obvious bribes (sometimes in the form of planes) from Qataris.

The American voter is about to register his and her opinion on the impact of low character. You aren't going to like it. And if Dems can avoid their own version of insanity, it will be registered again in 2028.

TDS still.

The SAVE Act isn't controversial, only to some politicians.

Tally what Judicial Watch is accomplishing around the US to clean up voter rolls !

I wanted to get my NYDL updated to use for domestic flights. All that changes on the issued DL is a tiny US flag in the upper right front corner of a new DL. "Enhanced"

Had to wait in line 3 hours, did not have the REQUIRED paperwork !
REQUIRED Birth Certificate from town I was born in Pennsy ! WITH a RAISED seal. Went home found REQUIRED documents, next day. 3 hour wait AGAIN !

Meanwhile NYDMV hands out CDL's like candy cane. 85,000 pounds of stuff moving down Interstate highways by drivers that can't read English !

Tell that to the MULTIPLE families that have been KILLED by illegals with phony CDLs.

I feel your pain on Paxton. You obviously don't like him.

In AZ we had Kari Lake force herself twice into state wide elections and she lost twice. The first time resulted in a Dem governor who joins every other Dem governor in legal cases against the Federal government for whatever (liberal) reason. In other words, our taxes are now are part of the Dem establishment.

Then Kari Lake forced herself into the senate election in 2024 and lost again against one of the stupidest Dem candidates in history in Reuben Gallego. She is a former TV anchor and smart but not warm or personable to the average electorate.

The problem with electing Talarico is Texas and America may have him for a generation. Incumbents seem to have staying power.

With visionary bold “men” like you, there would have been no 250th celebration 4 days ago.

Phoenix and Arizona are fine thank you.

If you really want to worry about something, study up on the fact that Scottsdale is essentially a “Superfund” site thanks to Motorola.

Arizona will continue to make the chips that allow you to use the internet.

And just to show how moronic you are, Arizona population has increased by what, 5,000,000? A lot of people living in an unlivable place

THE FREE STATE OF FLORIDA- All political BS in his run for President. 11th Circuit is a conservative appellate court.


A federal appeals panel took a red pen to Ron DeSantis's Stop WOKE Act on Tuesday, handing the governor yet another lesson in constitutional law he apparently didn't attend.

The 11th Circuit ruled 2-1 that the law's higher-ed provisions — which tried to muzzle professors from so much as discussing race and gender in class — violate the First Amendment, because it turns out the government doesn't get to script what college professors say. Bold concept, we know.
The judges didn't mince words either, accusing Florida of "puppeteering" educators — turning them into state-approved mouthpieces rather than, you know, teachers.
Judge Britt Grant — a Trump appointee who wrote the majority opinion — rejected Florida's argument that professors' speech belongs to the state simply because taxpayers fund their salaries, calling the theory "Emphatically no," The Guardian reports.
“Florida’s salary-for-speech rule is a breathtaking assertion of power to ban unpopular ideas from public discourse in the very places the state’s own statutes recognize as centers of inquiry – classrooms where students are trusted to puzzle through ideas that are good and bad, easy and hard, ideally getting ever closer to the truth," the Judge continued, adding, “The ideas Florida targets may well be noxious. Or maybe not. Either way, in this context the First Amendment trusts students to figure it out for themselves.”
