"Dewey wins!"?

We like pro-US/anti-IDF Mamdani

See, Kids, sometimes it doesn't work out. If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal. Corrupt Trump pardon's corrupt NY Mayor Eric Adams, who kissed the Orange One's butt and appeased his ego as well as pledging his allegiance to crooked Republicans. He had to to stay out of jail.

Sometimes it does work out, but who would bet on it? Trump keeps winning in court, the court of public opinion, and de facto on the ground.

I should run to be Trump's choice!

Judges may order him to keep ICE in his pants and out of our cities, but does he listen? Judges may order him to fund SNAP or food stamps to keep 1 out of 8 Americans from food insecurity (going hungry, malnourishment, malnutrition, and starvation), but does he listen?

He's got corrupt likely-rapist Justice Kavanaugh and others on the Supreme Court back his Agenda 2025 crimes, which Homan and Bannon must have had a grand time writing.

I run this country, Ghislane, I pick who wins.

Now if Andrew Cuomo can be resuscitated and put to work for Trump and Israel, what was the chance that millennials, youth, idealists, anti-Zionist Jews, and the diverse array of New Yorkers were going to be able to stop him?

What if Trump becomes official U.S. Dictator?

Progressive Democrat self-proclaimed socialist (like successful Kshama Sawant and hopeful candidate Katie Wilson) Mamdani meant well, even though progressive commentator Jimmy Dore points out that he has already caved to the power elite. He's an improvement but far from ideal, far from perfect, far from a real solution.

Corrupt NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo is a liar

(DD News) Well hated U.S. President Donald John Trump joins beloved right wing Hindu nationalist leader Prime Minister Nerendra Modi in addressing #NamasteTrump at Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad, India. Trump believes this is the largest gathering in the history of India, when it is less than 1% of the size of India's largest, the Kumbha Mela events, which are the largest human gatherings for any purpose. But don't tell Trump, as his ego might not be able to handle the truth. PM Modi is the Trump of India, like Duterte in the Philippines.

Namaste Trump: Why is Trump in India?
(Crux+, Feb. 19, 2020) U.S. Pres. Trump's visit to the AMC (Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation) stadium tweeted a series of "Namaste Trump" posts. Pres. Trump and PM Modi will visit Sabarmati Ashram where Gandhi is interred along the 22 km-long route from the airport for a roadshow of 50,000 lining the way.

Pakistan's Nuclear Threat; India's Oldest Dies

Nukes unlikely to be affected by Musharraf leaving

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Pervez Musharraf's departure from the presidency is unlikely to have a significant impact on how Pakistan's nuclear weapons are controlled.

Experts say a 10-member committee, and not just the president, makes decisions on how to use them and only a complete meltdown in governance — still a distant prospect in Pakistan — could put the atomic bomb in the hands of extremists.

"Pakistan's nuclear assets are not one man's property," said Maria Sultan, a defense analyst and director at the London-based South Asian Strategic Stability Institute.

"Any (political) transition in Pakistan will have no effect on Pakistan's nuclear assets because it has a very strong custodial control." More>>
