When House Republicans gathered in April to discuss their campaign prospects,
Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney was disturbed by a presentation of  internal polling data
shared by the National Republican Congressional Committee:
The briefers left out the fact that Donald Trump was not popular among voters
in the key swing districts where the battle for control of Congress is won or lost.

The real numbers indicated that in those important districts where the party
hoped to pick up House seats, "Trump's UNfavorable ratings were
15 points worse than his favorable ones," the Post reported.    

15 pts worse ??

yep     rumplickers love the big lie

bcuz they hate thinking their hero is in fact a 2 time loser

TRUE!

(CNN) GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski said Friday that she is "offended" by some
House Republicans who are whitewashing the January 6 attack on the US Capitol,
pushing back on the revisionism by some in the party who have tried to shield
the pro-Trump mob from blame over the deadly insurrection during the certification
of President Joe Biden's electoral victory.

"I'm offended by that," Murkowski told CNN. "This was not a peaceful protest. "

Systemic Racism in America??

INDIANAPOLIS
For months, Carlette Duffy suspected she had been low-balled on two home appraisals
*BECAUSE* she's BLACK. She decided to put that suspicion to the test and asked
a white family friend to stand in for her during an appraisal.

Her home's value suddenly shot up.  A LOT!!! 

The first two appraisers who visited her at her home just west of downtown Indianapolis,
valued it at $125,000 and $110,000, respectively.

But that third appraisal went quite differently.

Duffy, who is African American, communicated with the appraiser strictly via email,
stripped her home of all signs of her racial and cultural identity and had
the white husband of a friend stand in for her during the appraiser's visit ...

The home's new appraisal: $259,000 !!! 

"I had to go through all of that just to say that I was right
and that this is what's happening," she said. "This is real."

Housing experts and historians say residential real estate has been historically 
marred by discrimination. Across the nation, homes owned by Black Americans
are significantly UNDERvalued next to homes in comparable white neighborhoods,
according to a study by Brookings.

but of course rumplickers keep saying there is no systemic racism in america

Well not in their all white neighborhoods, no.

Republicans draw inspiration
from problem-plagued Arizona audit

(CNN)Arizona's problem-ridden audit has inspired Republicans elsewhere
to push for reviews in their own states as the party continues to hold up
former Donald Trump's lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

Amazing.

The trump-worshipping morons are still claiming ignorant stuff like

- masks don't work

- mitigation measures didn't and won't work

- and the whole pandemic is hoax because the risk of a 40 yr old American male from DYING is infintisimal small

around the world, investors have largely been brushing off the risks,
confident that vaccines will allow economic activity to return to normal.

But that risk assessment may be changing.

Iowa's REPUBLICAN Gov. Kim Reynolds
blames unvaccinated migrants for recent Covid spike

Miami Beach Mayor Rips Ron DeSantis
As ‘Pied Piper’ Of COVID-19,
Leading State ‘Off A Cliff’

Mayor Dan Gelber went after the GOP governor as Florida tallies
the highest daily number of cases of the entire pandemic.
Gelber blasted the governor’s opposition to COVID-19 health measures,
including masks, even as FLORIDA has become an epicenter of
soaring delta variant COVID-19 cases.

“The governor (deSantis) has made it as difficult as possible to make people safe,”
Gelber said on CNN Saturday.
“He’s like the pied piper leading everybody off a cliff right now
by letting them know that they don’t have to like the CDC,
they don’t have to wear masks, that they can do whatever they want
when we’re in the midst of an enormous pandemic.”

He spoke as Florida recorded its highest-ever number of COVID cases
in a single day since the start of the pandemic — 21,683,
according to federal health data, The Associated Press reported.

please tell us all what a great guy ny gov. cuomo is. better hurry before he is forced to resign and be arrested.....
