Happy Friday.

So: Does yesterday's independent prosecutor "BIden is too senile to stand trial" bombshell signal that Biden is going to be pushed off the ticket?

Can you say panic.

I don't think dems are any more interest in moving Kamala up.

She's a loose canon.

but of course, another scenario is that she gets paid off to get out of the way, and Gavin, Newsom, or someone else is nominated.

I really don't think that will happen.  Then again, I am almost invariably wrong about these things.  (See, e.g., my confident prediction early in the 2008 election cycle that the candidates would be Giuliani and Hillary,. with Giuliani winning.)

I don't think so either.

But it's the hot rumor.

That interview where she blather on about dangers to our democracy, fueling the speculation.

Every time the Progs start mewling about "Our Democracy", I reach for my revolver (so to speak).

Because the emphasis of course is on "Our", meaning, with them in control, permanently.

Newsome scares me. He's smart, unprincipled and a true believer.

In many cases they reputedly did not even allow the Hamasniks to get ready for their close-up!

Biden claims his memory is fine.

He can't remember the last time he forgot something

that’s totally different, because it’s part of the rich Palestinian cultural tradition.

Blinken warned Israel not to "dehumanize" the Palestinians.

I think the Palestinians have completely dehumanized themselves.
