Did she tell Biden not to run for reelection? Did she tell Biden to stop migrants from flooding across the border? The way to stop Trump was for Democrats to have better policies. It's too late now. Hitler came to power because the Democratic Weimar Republic couldn't control high inflation. Hitler like Trump was a good speaker. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ3N_2r6R-o

No, the Democratic leadership is to blame for losing. Democratics leaders such as Obama should have asked Biden not to run. If he decided to run, they should have encouraged others to run against him.

Because DEI assumes all ethnic groups and sexes are equal, there should be proportionate qualified applicants of all ethnic groups and sexes in all fields. Of course, DEI is a moot point since Trump will be President.

Incorrect. If all ethnic groups and sexes were equal, it would be reasonable that they would be proportionately represented. The problem is that all ethnic groups and sexes are equal which is why football players are mostly Black. At Boeing I'm sure that the engineering staff is disproportionately Asian.

This is Harris should propose to end the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Egypt will be given the West Bank enlarged by land equivalent to the Gaza Strip. In return, Israel will be given the Gaza Strip and land at least 3 times larger than the West Bank in the Sinai Peninsula. Some of the land will be adjacent to water so Israel can build desalination plants. The Sinai is inhospitable, and Egypt doesn’t have the technology to develop it, but Israel does. With its new land, Egypt can give it to the Palestinians, make it a state within Egypt, or whatever it wants.

The Taft-Hartley act should be amended to enable the government to impose a contract in cases where the economy is endangered from a strike. The Boeing strike is such as case. The strike is slowing work at Boeing's suppliers. Boeing is a vital US industry. It supplies defense products and is the only competition to Airbus. The Union's demands appear unreasonable. Boeing is having financial problems. I don't think it can meet the Union's demands without being uncompetitive. My proposal would allow government business experts to examine both sides and impose a binding contract. Harris should adopt my proposal and present it to Congress.

Good. A sequel should follow as soon as possible otherwise people will forget the previous movie. Villeneuve should be cautious about following the book, Dune: Messiah faithfully. Dune: Messiah did not do as well as Dune. There is no reason to believe that a movie would do any better than the book. The reason Dune: Messiah didn't do as well probably is that it is a dark and gloomy book in which Paul becomes a villain. Why would people want to see a movie that makes them sad? Villeneuve should deviate from the book by making Paul a hero and maintaining the love between Paul and Chani. Timothee Chalamet (Paul) and Zendaya (Chani) make a good couple. People would like to see them together.

War might be unavoidable. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, France and Britain declared war on Germany but did nothing. They should have attacked Germany from the west while much of Germany's forces was in Poland. The result of this defensive strategy was that Germany invaded France in 1940, and France considered one of the world's most powerful countries in the world surrendered in 6 weeks.

The lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, argues that an executive order issued in August by Youngkin requiring daily updates to voter lists to remove ineligible voters violates a federal law that requires a 90-day “quiet period” ahead of elections on the maintenance of voter rolls.

The quiet period exists to prevent erroneous removals, the lawsuit states. Virginia's policy of using data from the Department of Motor Vehicles to determine a voter's citizenship and eligibility will surely disenfranchise legitimate voters, the lawsuit alleges, because the DMV data is often inaccurate or outdated.

In an August 2021 studyTrusted Source, researchers compared the validity of home antigen tests compared to PCR lab tests for detecting COVID-19 infection. Within days 0 to 12 of symptom onset, the home tests correctly identified 78.9 percent of people who did have the virus and correctly identified 97.1 percent of people who didn’t have the virus.

When taken within 3 days of symptom onset, home tests correctly identified 96.2 of COVID-19 cases. The researchers found tests taken 3 days after symptoms appeared were almost as accurate as tests taken the day symptoms started.

Many people don't lose their composure after escaping death. Are you saying that all those people who survived hurricane Helene courageous?

How does that make him courageous? He would be courageous had he been helping people get cover while under fire.

The purpose of the photo is to portray Trump as courageous and defiant. Really? The Secret Service must have examined him and told him that the wound was minor. The reason is that they had to know whether to evacuate him immediately or wait until the gunman is neutralized. They also must have told him the gunman was dead otherwise they would not have exposed him.

Here is a photo of courage. It's British soldiers advancing under fire in the Battle for El Alamein. https://www.nam.ac.uk/sites/default/files/2017-09/102240_half.jpg

Harris weighs more breaks with Biden. by Dune1032 in politics

Good strategy. Here are breaks I suggest. Allow Ukraine to use long-range US weapons to strike deep into Russia. Endorse House bipartisan border bill rather than the Senate version which Biden endorses.

This should be her proposal to end the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Egypt will be given the West Bank enlarged by land equivalent to the Gaza Strip. In return, Israel will be given the Gaza Strip and land at least 3 times larger than the West Bank in the Sinai Peninsula. Some of the land will be adjacent to water so Israel can build desalination plants. The Sinai is inhospitable, and Egypt doesn’t have the technology to develop it, but Israel does. With its new land, Egypt can give it to the Palestinians, make it a state within Egypt, or whatever it wants.

This is the peace deal that she should propose to Putin and Zelensky. Russia will be permitted to occupy territory it seized from Ukraine before the February 2022 invasion although the land would legally belong to Ukraine. Russia must withdraw from all land it seized after the invasion. NATO membership will remain as it is. The UN will be obligated to defend Ukraine if Russia invades again.

From https://www.usatoday.com/live-story/money/2024/10/04/september-jobs-report-live-updates/75500076007/#:~:text=USA%20TODAY.%200:00.%202:48.%20America%E2%80%99s%20job%20market%20picked%20up%20in

"The labor market is still holding strong and steady," said Lonnie Golden, an economist at Penn State University's Abington campus. "Job creation is beyond healthy. . . . Unemployment remains near 4%, still historically low. Perhaps even more importantly, the pace of average hourly earnings over the last year is an increase of 4%, well ahead of the CPI inflation rate estimate (2.5% in the last quarter), continuing the trend for the last year and a half."

Golden added, "Anyone throwing shade on this report or the current state of the job market is intentionally trying to misinform the public. Engagement in the labor force has recovered largely since the pandemic and policy makers are hitting their targets."

You have not explained the reason Trump doesn't want an interview on 60 Minutes or have another debate.

I don't know how many jobs were fulltime, but they were filled by Americans. From https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/j-d-vance-s-attack-on-blockbuster-jobs-report-quickly-shut-down-by-economist/ar-AA1rIq9R?ocid=BingNewsSerp

In fact, noted Wolfers, when you look at employment data for native-born Americans in their prime working years, the economy looks to be very strong.

"Senator, I don't want to get caught up on facts, but the share of American-born folks in their prime working years who have jobs is higher than at any point during the Trump administration, and indeed, it's the highest it's ever been since the BLS started publishing these numbers," Wolfers wrote in his response to Vance.

But as University of Michigan economist Justin Wolfers wrote, Vance's claims about immigrants taking Americans' jobs don't add up, as many of the "lost" jobs by native-born Americans came from aging Baby Boomers deciding to retire.
