Election Day used to be miserable because people would call all day with STUPID information - "My aunt said low turnout because she was second in line at 7am", "some dude said record high turnout at his precinct", "it's raining in PG County so turnout there will be low", "accident on rt. 301 so"...etc, stupid, etc.
But now, it is FAR worse, it's 3 weeks of every self appointed "data scientist", "modeler", "microtargeter", constantly publishing irrelevant and incomplete information, that invariably contradicts the last useless information they sent a few hours ago. MAKE IT STOP!
ALL YOU ADULTS WHO DECORATE YOUR YARDS FOR HALLOWEEN with spiders and witches and tombstones and skeletons — NONE OF YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO VOTE. That would fix a ton of problems in America.
House Speaker Mike Johnson said he intends to serve as GOP leader if Republicans lose their House majority in November — but he remains bullish about the party's chances despite significant headwinds.
"In the unlikely scenario where we lost the majority, I would expect my colleagues would ask me to continue leading this conference, even if we have divided government," Johnson told CBS News' Robert Costa in an interview near Johnson's hometown of Shreveport, Louisiana.

I don’t care what party you’re in. We pledge allegiance to the same flag.
That’s the America I fought for overseas, and the one I’m fighting to protect for my kids, and for yours.
What does a $54 million buyout for the old coach, a $91 million contract for the new coach, and a $50 million roster get you?
An a-s whipping in Oxford, Mississippi! #HottyToddy
Our state flag has carried the word Tuebor, "I will defend," since 1835. It is more than a motto for us. It is woven into our DNA.
We stand on the shoulders of generations of Michigan men and women who said, We will defend or die trying. And on September 11, 25 years ago, they did both.
A brief moment of personal reflection: On the morning of 9/11 I was meeting with my good friend Majority Whip Tom DeLay in his office in the US Capitol building. An aide came in to turn on the TV and show the Congressman that a plane had hit one of the towers. It was somber, but we figured it was a terrible mishap by a small plane. The meeting continued. Then the second plane hit, after which the Capitol police rushed in and escorted Mr. DeLay out of the building to a secure location. The few of us in the meeting sat there looking at the TV, not saying any words, and then the Pentagon was struck. My dear friend Blaise Hazelwood and I were among the last to leave the Capitol, and we could see the smoke rising from the Pentagon. We later learned of the heroism of Todd Beamer taking down flight 93. It is likely that plane was headed for either the Capitol or the WH. Beamer and his "let's roll" crew saved many lives that day, quite possibly my own. Several years ago I summoned the courage to visit the Flight 93 Memorial in Pennsylvania. I'm not much of a crier, but I did break down that day. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
"America deserved 9/11"
"I f****** hate America so much"
@AbdulElSayed aligns himself with radical extremists who hate America and believe that nearly 3,000 Americans deserved to die on 9/11.
Michigan cannot afford El-Sayed’s hateful rhetoric and dangerous agenda.
I fought extremists abroad. I came home on a mission to make our community safer and deliver lower costs for the hardworking families in our district. I’m ready to deliver results on day 1. 🦅🇺🇸
One observation: When we ask God for what we want, and he doesn't give it to us, we often doubt His existence/goodness. But when he does give us what we ask, we tend to rationalize that it was probably just part of the natural order of things. All of which shows that "we" are stupid.
Happy National Sons and Daughters Day. 🇺🇸
Let’s make Michigan a state where our kids can live, thrive, and build their future right here at home. I love my boys more than anything, and I’ll never stop fighting for the future they deserve.
