Well I'm sure this will be a quiet week.
Or are we back to infrastructure week again? Isn't that coming up soon?

On Sunday on Selters show he ran a clip on how women candidates are getting more negative coverage than their male counterparts.
it was...ironic?
Especially since CNN is running an hour long special tonight on Harris' time as a prosecutor and it doesn't appear from the commercials that its 'flattering'.
Like if you KNOW you are putting out negative coverage on women candidates, how bout you do a hit piece on why Bernie wont release HIS taxes and his cozy relationship with the NRA previously?

45 has officially designated the Iran Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist org. They are part of the Iranian government.
(parts of this org have been declared terrorist previously in 2007) However this is the first time, the US has designated an entire branch this way.

I need to start paying attention here again. Even though most of it likely won't make sense.
The other forum I frequent is heavily conservative, so I need to cleanse a bit.

Sam Patten's attorneys say he concealed a payment from a Ukrainian oligarch to Trump's inaugural because he was "blinded by a desire to accommodate his client." His lawyers also say that he "erred" in deleting 200k emails following his interview with the Senate Intel Committee. t.co/hk7bvjCjnt

Someone's mad about thumb drive gate It sounds worse than that...sounds like he's giving Stephen Miller carte blanche to fire anyone at DHS. That article also says the USCIS Director and DHS's OGC head are getting booted too.

We can only fit so much spinning and bullshit in one thread, and it's still only Tuesday.
