House Democrats elect Hakeem Jeffries as party leader

House Democrats on Wednesday elected Rep. Hakeem Jeffries as their leader, making him the first Black lawmaker to lead a party in Congress.
The New Yorker succeeds House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), who has led the Democrats for two decades.
Jeffries will carry the title of minority leader when Congress returns in January with Republicans in control of the House as a result of the midterm elections.
Approved by acclamation, Jeffries, 52, and two other lawmakers in leadership — Reps. Katherine M. Clark (Mass.), 59, and Pete Aguilar (Calif.), 43 — will represent a generational change for Democrats who will be in the minority in the new Congress.

Are We Going to Throw the Kurds Under the Bus . . . Again?

Apparently the Al Qaeda-derived HTS in Syria is friendly with Turkey. Turkey considers it's Kurds and those in eastern Syria to be terrorists. Apparently HTS and maybe some in the west are calling for the Syrian Kurds to lay down their arms.

Trump previously threw them under the bus, so they certainly aren't safe. But I have no idea where Trump or his people stand on Syria or Turkey.

What do you guys think?

Trump sentencing on Jan 10th

Orange Musk Trump all pissed off that flags will be at half mast during the inauguration - And it is for Jimmy Carter

The Dumpster has to be the most petulant, 3 year old child-like adult I have ever seen, especially someone who people have voted him in as prez twice.

This 30 day halfstaff flag hanging order is normal for former presidents and can also be for veterans which Carter was.

Carter was smart enough to graduate from the Naval Academy and the only thing Trump could do at a military academy is clean the toilets because he is just a big turd. Period.
