Efforts at indoctrination have landed the Medical Board of California with a lawsuit as one black doctor put her career on the line over a “racist” mandate. (snip) California law dictates that the required 50 hours of continuing eduction to maintain a medical license must now “include discussion of ‘implicit bias.'” With a career stretching back to 1973, Dr. Marilyn Singleton is now taking the board and its executives to court over alleged constitutional violations that impact her on two fronts.

Harry and Meghan are planning to produce a Netflix movie in a bid to firm up their futures in Hollywood after a turbulent few months saw them part ways with music and podcast giant Spotify, it was reported last night. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to have bought the rights to the romantic novel Meet Me At The Lake by Carley Fortune(Snip) It also describes the trauma faced by a character who lost a parent in a car crash as a child, and goes on to cover themes including alcohol and drug use—
Last year, activists in Mississippi began an effort to prevent the state’s Secretary of State from enforcing a provision in the state constitution that permanently prohibits people convicted of certain felonies from voting. Republican Attorney General Lynn Fitch rejected the request and the matter was sent to the courts. Yesterday, a three-judge panel from the Fith Circuit Court ruled in favor of the activists and ordered Fitch to stop enforcing the rule because they declared that it violates the cruel and unusual punishment clause in the federal Constitution.
A Florida State University professor has been fired for “faking data” to prove that the legacy of lynching “makes whites want longer sentences for blacks” as part of his long-running work on “systemic racism.” Six of the professor’s studies have since been retracted.
Florida State criminology professor Eric Stewart, who claimed that “systemic racism” infests America’s police and American society, is now out of a job after nearly 20 years of his data was called into question, according to a report by the New York Post.
Friday, during an interview on FBN’s “Kudlow,” Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz once again criticized the four-count indictment against former President Donald Trump regarding the 2021 Capitol Hill riot.
According to Dershowitz, the indictment approached “banana republic land,” and he accused the Biden administration of being “afraid of the democratic process.”
“We know that President Biden urged his attorney general to indict the man who he knew was going to be the leading opponent if against him,” Dershowitz said. “That begins to look like banana republic land. That’s what happens when people in power are afraid of the democratic process.
On Friday, Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was sentenced to 19 years in prison on charges of supporting “extremism.” This is actually his fifth criminal conviction, and, according to a report from USA Today, “Navalny and his supporters have repeatedly criticized his criminal convictions as politically motivated and described them as attempts by Russian President Vladimir Putin to silence his archenemy.”
Navalny has been incarcerated since January 2021. He has reportedly been an outspoken critic of the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin and was found guilty of multiple charges, including creating and participating in an extremist community, financing extremist activities, organizing such a community, making public calls for
U.S. Senate candidate and Riverton, Utah, Mayor Trent Staggs told Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Saturday that Utah voters are “tired” of Sen. Mitt Romney’s (R-UT) “misplaced or misguided passion against” former President Donald Trump and slammed him as “so out of touch” with voters.
Staggs joined the program following Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyles’s on-camera interview with the 45th president late last month, in which Trump called Romney a “Loser” and said “[t]he right candidate” would unseat him if he runs for reelection.
President Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden have been branded as 'inconsiderate, entitled and lousy' by Politico over the misbehavior of their dogs.
Both dogs made headlines for their violent behavior toward staff - in particular Secret Service agents.
The White House is now giving, one pooch named 'Commander,' extra training after being involved in 10 White House and Delaware attacks going back to last year.While, 'Major,' the other dog, was given to family friends in December 2021 - the same month the Biden family got Commander.
The Politico piece titled 'Don't Blame the Dog. Blame Biden,' columnist Matthew Schaffer tore into the First Family.
The conservative mindset apparently is just not genetically oriented to playing political hardball. Time and again, progressives take the initiative and mount political and PR offensives against conservatives, rocking them back on their heels, defining the narrative in terms favorable to progressives and pre-emptively shaping public opinion in the minds of the persuadable voter. The notion of “facts” or “accuracy” doesn’t matter in the progressive playbook. The only thing that matters is going on offense.
Conservatives are forever playing an inadequate game of catchup. That is, when conservatives even bother to fight back at all. Too often, they simply absorb the blows unanswered, pleased with themselves for simply surviving
Staff at a life-coaching company have started questioning the Duke of Sussex's work there.
They have turned on the Duke – who reportedly earns a seven-figure salary as chief impact officer – after more than 100 San Francisco-based BetterUp employees were laid off last week.
The staff claim he has become a 'distraction' with one concluding that with Harry 'the juice isn't worth the squeeze'. Another BetterUp employee was asked about Harry's day-to-day responsibilities.
'From what I see I'm going to go with zero things,' he replied.
Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) will host a "BBQ bash" on Sunday, welcoming several of the Republican candidates for president in 2024 to speak in front of Iowans and make their cases for the job.
The barbecue will be a relatively informal event for Iowans, and Hinson noted that candidates wouldn't be "tethered to a podium" like they might be at other events."You get to see them interact with everybody" on a grassroots level. According to her, "it gives that flavor that you can really tell which candidates have it," she said
Democrats have suffered a loss in small donations through ActBlue in the first two quarters of this presidential election cycle compared to 2020, according to a report.
Politico’s Jessica Piper first reported on the disparities at the federal level on Friday, highlighting that Democrats’ $312 million raised from small donors through ActBlue this year marks a $30 million decline from four years ago.
What is more, the number of Democrat donors fell 32 percent compared to quarter two of 2019, when the Democrat primary was heating up. Ari Rabin-Havt, who served as deputy campaign manager for Bernie Sanders’ 2020 White House bid, expressed concerns about the drop-off while speaking with Politico.
At a town hall in New Hampshire, Ron DeSantis was asked how he will respond when Trump starts belittling him and name-calling in personal attacks on the debate stage. His answer was a glimmer that the Ron DeSantis we’ve been waiting to show up on the campaign trail is still there.
Is he finally waking up? The question now is whether or not it is too late to make a difference. DeSantis pointed out what many Republican voters think – the way Trump speaks is not presidential. [Snip] A majority of voters don’t want a Trump-Biden re-match.
Former Vice President Mike Pence was met with vocal criticism and heckling from supporters of former President Donald Trump during a town hall meeting at American Legion Post 27 in Londonderry on Friday.
Pence was confronted by protestors questioning his loyalty to former President Trump and the American people and accusing him of disregarding the Constitution.
Trump supporters surrounded Mike Pence’s car as he arrived at his Friday town hall, shouting, “That’s a traitor,” “You’re a sellout,” according to ABC reporter Kelsey Walsh.
“Why did you sell out the people?” one protestor said.
Attorney and law professor Jonathan Turley raised serious legal questions about Special Counsel Jack Smith’s path to convicting former President Donald Trump.
In an op-ed published Saturday by The Hill, Turley warned that the latest indictment of Trump relating to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot threatens the First Amendment by giving the government an unprecedented power to criminalize false statements. Trump was indicted earlier this week on four charges, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Bill Barr enjoys talking about the weaponized DOJ as if the DOJ was not weaponized. Bill Barr is a very dangerous figure in the government weaponization process, and he had a lot of people fooled for a long time. Fortunately, he didn’t fool me and many of you remember exactly why.
Additionally, during my 2020 trip to DC, it was specific suspicions about Bill Barr that necessitated going directly into the system. Through research and eventually a stroke of luck, I was able to trace the people Attorney General Barr assigned to review the Trump-Russia collusion nonsense. I found the people working for Durham and questioned the
For Ronnie Suggs, an Iraq War veteran, his new job as a trucker for Walmart is more than just a career move - it's changed his entire life.
Just a few years ago, the 53-year-old from Bentonville, Arkansas, was homeless after falling on 'really rough times'. But today, he's preparing for his first assignment as a Walmart driver - with the potential to earn a six-figure salary in his first year.
Suggs, who has two adult daughters, is one of dozens of recent graduates of Walmart's driver program. The retailer - the world's largest private employer - opened it up to staff across the company last year as America battled
More than two dozen House Democrats put forward legislation Friday that would slap "assault weapons" and high-capacity magazines with a 1,000% excise tax, a change that would raise the price of a $500 weapon to $5,000 in a bid to reduce access to guns across the country. Rep. Don Beyer, D-Va., and 24 other House Democrats introduced the legislation Friday. It’s the second time Democrats have put forward the idea. Beyer and 37 Democrats proposed the same idea last year when Democrats controlled the House, but it never moved. The text of Beyer’s new bill was not out as of
The federal judge presiding over former President Trump’s election fraud case has ordered his attorneys to respond to prosecutors’ request for a protective order by Monday, according to a court filing Saturday.
Judge Tanya Chutkan gave Trump’s attorneys a single business day to respond to special counsel Jack Smith’s request for a strict protective order which would prevent Trump from discussing case evidence in public. Smith made the request last Friday after Trump made a social media post appearing to threaten witnesses in the case.
“IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!” Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday.
The Trump campaign has since said the post
BEDMINSTER, New Jersey — Former President Donald Trump, the leading 2024 GOP presidential candidate, told Breitbart News exclusively that his one-time chief rival for the GOP nomination, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, is “crashing badly” down out of second place in the race.
“He’s crashing badly,” Trump said of DeSantis.DeSantis, who in the lead-up to this interview taped at Trump’s golf club here last Thursday laid off dozens of campaign staffers, has said just weeks into his presidential campaign he is now doing a “reboot.” Trump mocked the idea that DeSantis could successfully “reboot” his failing campaign.
“This is his third one,” Trump said.
One of the things characterizing the Biden administration is incoherence. Biden is frequently completely unintelligible, mumbling sounds to himself and his audience. Kamala offers wordy, banal phrases that fail to hide that her premise, conclusion, and argument are all identical. And Karine Jean-Pierre, despite having her eyes glued to her notes most of the time, is the Sergeant Schultz of press secretaries, for she knows nothing most of the time. It’s hardly surprising, therefore, to learn that the Biden White House has purged over 30% of the people allowed press passes…none of whom belong to the major MSM outlets.
Michigan congresswoman and far-left “Squad” member Rashida Tlaib is facing backlash after attending an event celebrating Palestinian terror, glorifying “martyrs,” and calling for the destruction of the Jewish state.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), a third-term member of Congress long accused of anti-American and anti-Israel rhetoric, participated in a controversial Palestinian art show in Detroit, the Arab American News reported.
Special counsel Jack Smith alerted the court to a social media post by former President Donald Trump in a filing that asks for a protective order so prosecutors can begin providing discovery to Trump’s legal team in the Jan. 6 case.
Trump on Friday afternoon had posted a message to his social media platform, Truth Social, saying, "IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I'M COMING AFTER YOU!"
The message was posted hours after Trump swore in court that he would not attempt to intimidate witnesses.
Niger’s president, in an op-ed published Thursday, raised concerns that the political unrest in his country will present Russia with an opportunity to gain a foothold and advance its interests on the African continent.
"With an open invitation from the coup plotters and their regional allies, the entire central Sahel region could fall to Russian influence via the Wagner Group, whose brutal terrorism has been on full display in Ukraine," Niger President Mohamed Bazoum wrote in The Washington Post.
"Boko Haram and other terrorist movements will surely take advantage of Niger’s instability,
Devon Archer, a former friend and business partner to Hunter Biden, testified Monday as part of the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the Biden family business dealings and alleged foreign corruption. Archer made several key claims, including that Hunter was brought on to the board of Ukranian energy company Burisma because of his familial connections and that Hunter put then-Vice President Joe Biden on the phone his business associates at least twenty times to demonstrate his access to US government power.
Archer’s testimony complicates the insistence from President Joe Biden, the White House and their friends in the media that President Biden was oblivious
Bill Barr ran to CNN after President Trump’s latest indictment earlier this week to cheer the end of free speech in America.
Bill Barr: I think it’s a legitimate case. I think, unlike the document case, it’s going to have issues of proof. It’s a more complicated case. They’re not attacking his First Amendment right. He can say whatever he wants, but that does not protect you from entering into a conspiracy. All conspiracies involve speech, and all fraud involves speech.
The entire case is built around the notion that government can control speech in America and can jail you if you step out of line.
Fraternal Order of Police President John Catanzara unloaded on Mayor Brandon Johnson on Friday for referring to the ransacking of a South Loop convenience store as a teen “trend”—and not a “mob action” — and for telling reporters it was inappropriate “to refer to children as, like, baby Al Capones.”
In a YouTube video to the police rank-and-file that focused largely on an independent arbitrator’s two rulings favorable to the union, Catanzara condemned Johnson as the City Hall equivalent of a permissive parent who would rather make excuses for young people wreaking havoc than hold them accountable for their criminal behavior.
“The teen takeover on Roosevelt Road was not a teen takeover,”
Hunter Biden's former friend and business partner Devon Archer laid bare how the First Son sold his connections to Joe Biden in bombshell congressional testimony and interviews this week.
The most striking of Archer's claims was Hunter's habit of putting his father on speakerphone during meetings with foreign business partners – a tactic that awed them into believing Hunter's commercial influence went all the way to the then-Vice President Joe Biden.
Archer called it an 'an abuse of soft power' in an interview with Tucker Carlson.
Special Counsel Jack Smith on Friday asked a judge to issue a protective order in the case against former President Donald Trump over his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election after Trump made a post on Truth Social.
On Friday, Trump posted the following message to his Truth Social account: “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU.”
Now, Smith is using that post to argue Trump’s access to the discovery in his criminal case should be restricted. Smith’s proposed order seeks to prevent “improper dissemination or use of discovery materials, including to the public,” according to a four-page filing.
Motorists in Oregon are expressing excitement and confusion after a 72-year ban on self-serve gasoline pumps was lifted on Friday.
Across the Beaver State, drivers took to social media to boast of pumping their own gas, while local new outlets published step-by-step instructions to help bewildered first-timers.
The change came after Governor Tina Kotek signed a bill allowing people across the state to choose between having an attendant pump gas or doing it themselves. The law took immediate effect.
BOGOTA, Aug 3 (Reuters) - Nicolas Petro, the eldest son of Colombian President Gustavo Petro, on Thursday admitted that illegal money entered his father's election campaign last year, the prosecutor handling the case said on Thursday.
Nicolas Petro, 37, was arrested on Saturday in the city of Barranquilla alongside his ex-wife, Daysuris del Carmen Vasquez, who was quoted in the media in March saying that two people accused of having ties to drug trafficking gave her former spouse cash to support the president's election campaign.
Text messages that have recently been given to the FBI show that a Chinese energy company sought to utilize its connections to Hunter Biden in order to purchase domestic energy assets within the United States.
According to Just The News, the text exchange in question took place between two of Hunter’s business partners, James Gilliar and Tony Bobulinski, on Christmas Eve of 2015. This exchange was shortly after Hunter had first been told about the conglomerate, CFEC China Energy, led by wealthy businessman Ye Jianming.

Reedley Chinese COVID Lab Received Tax Credit of $360,000 From Gov. Newsom’s ‘GO-Biz’
At the epicenter of current controversy, an illegal California lab run by a Chinese biotech firm, Prestige Biotech, was recently discovered in a warehouse in Reedley, California. The lab contained mice which were genetically engineered to spread COVID-19.
According to National Review, “court documents further showed that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) conducted tests on the more than 800 chemicals found at the site and that over 20 infectious agents were found present, including Hepatitis B and C, streptococcus pneumonia, chlamydia, rubella, and Herpes 1 and 5.” As a federal investigation is underway,
While jetting across the country trumpeting the supposed success of "Bidenomics," Vice President Kamala Harris had this to say, "Most Americans are a $400 unexpected expense away from bankruptcy." What’s not to love?
The White House must not be seeing the same headlines we are about record inflation, declining income, and concerning job trends. President Joe Biden’s rampant spending has destroyed the economic comfort and prosperity of the previous administration — something even the most devout anti-Trumpers are becoming nostalgic about as family budgets grow tighter and tighter.
Biden erroneously claims that his energy policies
The Department of Justice implored U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan to issue a protective order curtailing Donald Trump’s ability to share information about his indictment online. Chutkan is presiding over the trial of Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., on four charges related to his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election,
“If the defendant were to begin issuing public posts using details — or, for example, grand jury transcripts — obtained in discovery here, it could have a harmful chilling effect on witnesses or adversely affect the fair administration of justice in this case,” special counsel Jack Smith wrote in his court filing on Friday.
Many conservative analysts have recoiled in disgust at the way the Department of Justice has become increasingly politicized and weaponized, acting as a tool of leftist Democrats in recent years. There has been no clearer example of this than the way they have attempted to cook up multiple avenues to put Joe Biden’s primary political opponent, former President Donald Trump, in jail before he can have the opportunity to take back the White House. But now that Trump has actually spoken out about this, the Associated Press and other media outlets are feigning outrage over the idea that a thorough housecleaning of the DoJ is in order.
Four hundred ninety-eight electric vehicles (EVs) and over 3,200 other vehicles, including 350 Mercedes Benzes, were bound for Egypt on the Fremantle Highway when one or more of the EVs caught fire, costing at least one seaman his life and injuring several others. Curiously, the Dutch coast guard had initially reported that only 25 of the vehicles were battery-electric models.
At last report, the Dutch coast guard admitted that it has been unable to put out the fire and that the ship has taken on water and is “listing” and on a trajectory toward a capsize. Should the ship sink, the total loss would also threaten the Frisian island of Ameland,
Former and potentially future President Donald Trump is currently facing three indictments and will likely be facing a fourth in the coming weeks. He'll be dealing with the legal process as he's campaigning for president in the primary and if he indeed becomes the nominee. As Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) discussed in his Friday morning edition of his "Verdict" podcast, it's the Democratic Party's game plan to have Trump engaged in multiple trials going on, so that the headlines will constantly be about Trump, distracting the American people from the numerous bad press that President Joe Biden ought to be receiving.
These two events are not coincidental.
Ron DeSantis megadonor Robert Bigelow (below right) is already into the failing DeSantis campaign for $20 million.

Immediately DeSantis changes his talking points. “All those theories that were put out did not prove to be true…”
The Marine JAG veteran and former senior Homeland Security officer working on President Donald J. Trump’s legal team tells RedState that Special Counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of Trump revealed Aug. 1 is a surprisingly weak case against the former president. “I don’t think anybody thinks Donald Trump believes he lost the election,” says Christina Bobb, the author of “Stealing Your Vote: The Inside Story of the 2020 Election and What It Means for 2024.”
Smith’s central legal thesis is that Trump knew that he lost the 2020 election and that his subsequent actions and statements were corrupt and criminal.
Bobb says Smith’s premise is absurd:
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) released his third edition of the “Facebook Files,” saying the Biden administration pressured the social media giant to stifle speech the White House didn’t like, including limiting The Daily Wire’s reach on the platform and boosting the reach of legacy media outlets.
In a tweet thread Thursday, Jordan highlighted newly released documents obtained by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, which he chairs. The documents, which were reviewed by The Daily Wire, show that Facebook repeatedly confirmed to the White House that it was working to re-engineer its platform in order to accomplish the administration’s directives on suppressing content that clashed
Donald Trump was hit with his third indictment this week, with four charges that carry a maximum of 55 years in prison.
His laundry list of legal problems - including 40 federal charges in Florida, the Stormy Daniels hush-money case in Manhattan and a looming indictment in Georgia - means he will likely be on trial during the next White House campaign.
He is the odds-on favorite to be the Republican nominee for president and could be convicted and sentenced before Americans go to the polls in November 2024.

Robert Bigelow, the biggest individual donor supporting the presidential campaign of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), told Reuters he would not be donating any more money unless DeSantis makes a more moderate shift and attracts new major donors.
Bigelow is DeSantis’s biggest donor by a longshot. The Bigelow Aerospace founder donated $20 million to the pro-DeSantis Never Back Down PAC in March. The next closest donor is venture capitalist Douglas Leone, who donated $2 million, a tenth of Bigelow’s contribution.
The New York Times, also known as those wonderful people who brought you Walter Duranty and his minor omission while slobbering over Joseph Stalin in the 1930s of mentioning how Stalin was systematically mass murdering four million Ukrainians via forced starvation, has come up with another pearl of wisdom for we the peasantry. Did you know that when a radical South African political group demanding the country’s white farmers give up their land by any means necessary, including murder, sings a song at their rallies featuring “Kill the Boer,” Boer meaning any white person living in South Africa, they don’t literally mean it?

for Fraud for Omitting Trump’s ‘Peaceful’ Statement replies
Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz says that under his own “fraud” standard, Special Counsel Jack Smith could be indicted for omitting a key portion of then-President Donald Trump’s speech in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021.
The indictment charges Trump with four counts, including “conspiracy to defraud the United States.” But in a portion recounting Trump’s speech at the “Stop the Steal” rally, Smith repeats the errors made by House Democrats in Trump’s second impeachment trial: he focuses on Trump’s use of the phrase “fight like hell,” and omits a sentence highlighted by Trump’s defense team: “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the

A family and a New Jersey community are grieving the loss of a young policeman who died of cardiac arrest on July 23.
Twenty-three-year-old Sam Irvin collapsed as he ran sprints outside at his fiancé’s family’s farm in Columbus, Fox 29 reported Thursday, noting he had an enlarged heart, which was revealed in the autopsy.
“His heart just stopped, and they said it happened within seconds, so he didn’t feel pain,” his fiancé, Mackenzie Santucci, explained, adding it was an extremely traumatic day. In a social media post on Friday, Santucci wrote,”I miss you more and more everyday Sam Irvin.”
On July 25, the Mansfield Township Police Department announced the tragic loss, noting,
Still Doubting the 2020 Election
replies
NBC is reporting — with a supposed sense of shock — the results of a Monmouth poll that nearly one-third of Americans think the 2020 presidential election was rigged.
And they further reiterate that there is no evidence for fraud.
There's no evidence widespread fraud affected the outcome of the 2020 election, but Trump and allies have spent years undercutting the election's legitimacy.
Wow! It must be so. The main stream media assure us that the election was honest. Yet one third of Americans still believe the election was a fraud.
I am shocked, shocked.
Anyone who questions the election result is called a fascist or subjected to a lawsuit or prosecution.
Apparently there's some kind of bell that goes off in Kamala Harris's head, every time the topic of space travel comes up, that cues her into saying some of her stupidest things.
The latest such incident happened in Mongolia of all places, where Harris was on a mission to step up cooperation with the friendly landlocked country sandwiched between China and Russia, and she fell into another of her famous word salads in front of that country's leader, Mongolian Prime Minister Oyun-Erdene Luvsannamsrai.
Where would we be without social media? Why, if we didn’t have it, we would have to rely on an asteroid, nuclear war, a space virus, an alien invasion, or a revolution by chimpanzees, orangutans, and gorillas to bring down mankind. But as it is, we have social media, so we’ve got the end of the world pretty well in hand. In case you haven’t heard, there was a riot today in New York City. Big deal, you say. It’s summer. It’s riot season. But this riot was not over race, abortion, trans rights, or some other hot-button issue that demands our slack-jawed, glassy-eyed attention from time to time.
According to a FOX News poll in December 2021, 78% of Republicans believed the 2020 election was stolen.
At least 70% of Republican voters still believe Joe Biden’s win was illegitimate, according to a recent poll this week by far-left CNN.
In January 2022, only 17% of Republicans and right-leaning independent voters said they would vote for a candidate that believes Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
On Friday, Governor Ron DeSantis said that the theories by President Trump about the 2020 election being stolen were “unsubstantiated.”
The Essential Impeachment
replies
“There comes a time in the life of every man when he must take the bull squarely by the tail and face the situation.” —W.C. Fields
Our elected representatives in D.C. are faced with just such a circumstance. To impeach Joe Biden or not to impeach Joe Biden. This is almost always presented in an either/or metaphor: Scylla and Charybdis, a rock and a hard place, and so on. The essence of these arguments is that impeachment/no impeachment offers no good option. I submit that this is a form of the Fallacy of the Excluded Middle.
The basic case in favor of impeachment is simply that he should be impeached
With the first presidential primary debate set to take place at the end of August, the race for the White House is finally getting started, and things will only heat up as the temperature grows colder.
What that will bring as far as the dynamics of either primary, I don’t know. What I do know is that Joe Biden and Donald Trump are the presumptive nominees at this moment in time. With that matchup in mind, the latest ABC News poll has been released, and it’s a disaster for everyone involved. We’ll start with Donald Trump, as there are several ancillary questions asked about his recent indictment to discuss.
