Short Take Politics

Redstate.com, an always-partisan far-right Website, was reporting Friday that Kamala Harris’s vice presidential candidate will be Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2024/08/02/breaking-kamala-harris-vp-pick-leaked-by-incompetent-staffer-n2177679

The fix is in. Kamala in a landslide

A loved one the other day carefully articulated that after the Democrats demonstrated how to steal the election by rigging the machines to show more votes than voters in Wisconsin 2020, they have mastered the tactic and Harris will sail to victory. Lawsuits over the stolen election never gained traction because the judges were all in on the fix and refused to hear the cases. The same person explained the January 6 protesters were peaceful and attempting to save our Republic from the deranged autocrats who had stolen the election. Asked for documentation or any credible source, he could offer none. That’s become the blindspot for the far right, all style, no substance. Or as they say in Texas, all hat and no cattle.

Of course, eventually it will come out but hey, what’s a felony or 37 among friends. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/aug/02/trump-campaign-…
