Well, he's gone in a couple of years. Guaranteed. Meanwhile, the congress gets full of Bolsheviks.

I'm not sure if they used slaves before the war also. They used all of those Jews for something, I think.
  THE NAZIS STARTED ROUNDING UP THE JEWS FROM 1933 TO 1939 WHEN THE WAR STARTED.... I'VE NEVER THOUGHT FAR LEFT INSANITY WAS MUCH BETTER THAN FAR RIGHT INSANITY... PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HISTORY AMAZE ME .. I DO WANT TRUMP GONE.. BUT I DON'T EXPECT PEACHES AND CREAM WHEN HE IS.. THIS COUNTRY HAS GONE ROUND THE BEND AND NOTHING IS GOING TO SAVE IT NOW... GOSH IT'S ALMOST.... BIBLICAL..

Hopeful.
 Last night was first night after 13 nights of exchanging missiles between Iran and U.S.
 Hearing possible there is an unspoken ceasefire
Qatar is saying (as long as tonight no attacks) shipping could return to "normal" tomorrow with usual precautions

Meanwhile Yemen and Saudi Arabian fighting may raise oil prices
6 or 7% of world oil flows from Saudi Arabia through Red Sea
Yemen attacked major port city and further up coast oil facility but hearing warnings there and no known impact(CNN sounded like intercepted stopped but Houthis claim below both strikes successful)

Iran-backed Houthis launch retaliatory strikes on Saudi Arabia

The Yemen-based militant group’s actions against Saudi Arabia this week, including a maritime blockade and attacks on oil tankers, threaten to further disrupt oil markets already strained by the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz during crossfire between the U.S. and Iran.

After the Houthis attacked two Saudi tankers in the Red Sea on Thursday, international benchmark Brent crude oil jumped up to a future trading price of around $101 a barrel.

Trump vowed Thursday to hold Iran responsible for any further Houthi attacks on ships
 Iran-backed Houthi rebels announced Saturday they fired missiles and drones toward Saudi Arabia, claiming retaliation for Saudi attacks on Yemen’s coastal city of Hodeida.

Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree, the militant group’s spokesperson, said in a social media post that the Houthis executed two military operations “in response to this blatant and criminal aggression” from Saudi Arabia.


“The first targeted sensitive Aramco-affiliated facilities in Jizan with dozens of ballistic missiles and drones,” he continued. “And the second operation targeted sensitive Aramco-affiliated facilities in Yanbu with a number of ballistic and cruise missiles and drones.”

“Both operations successfully achieved their objectives thanks to Allah Almighty, with accurate and direct strikes,” Saree added.

Jackson starts his campaign as Democratic candidate for Senate in Maine with populist message
I saw one recent college poll gave Jackson 3% lead over Collins but early and not sure trust college poll as much as say if was NBC and Collins trailed early last time she ran too
 Collins said when elected she'd just stay couple terms now running for her 6th says her seniority is important

Maine Democrats officially select Troy Jackson to replace Graham Platner
The near-unanimous vote came at the end of a tumultuous weekslong process to pick their nominee, and one week after he dominated party conventions
https://www.politico.com/news/2026/07/25/maine-democrats-select-troy-jackson-graham-platner-01012130

But where Platner was frequently trying to make grand statements about reshaping the Democratic Party, Jackson has been laser-focused on Collins since his launch.

“For nearly 30 years, Susan Collins has told Maine that she’s concerned,” Jackson said in a short speech pitching himself to the delegates. “But concern does not lower the cost of groceries and gas.”

“Maine does not need six more years of concern,” he continued.

 Collins has amassed $11 million in her campaign account, and there’s another $8.2 million in a super PAC supporting her.

Jackson, meanwhile, is not known to be a particularly strong fundraiser. He’s so far raised about $1 million dollars — roughly the same figure he raised in his entire failed gubernatorial run earlier this year.
(National focus on this race and Democrats trying to win back Senate I have to believe both sides will have lots of money)

Senate Leadership Fund, the top GOP Senate super PAC, immediately put out a six-figure ad buy with photos of Platner and Jackson campaigning together while highlighting reports on Jackson’s temper, and tying Jackson to his “decades as a political insider.”
I think been questions about some gifts Jackson received said to be improper(above limits) but not seen much about it yet
