Clearly, Paul is running low on ammo — regarding things to complain about (re Kamala).
He tells us there were 24 staffers, or six a year — that didn’t stay on for her coming presidency. Y A W N.
First, nothing would stop them from rejoining (many may have assessed that Joe wasn’t likely to win in 2024, and also wouldn’t step aside willingly).
Second, that’s normal turnover.
Finally, consider that nearly all of Tangerine’s cabinet level people were repeatedly fired, re-upped with new hires — and those in turn, fired… likely over 50 people (more than double Kamala, and almost all more senior roles than these 24). [That’s just off the top of my head, from unaided memory, BTW. The figure is likely much higher, if we count lower level people as Paul has, tonight.]
So — Paul well knows it: only one of these two candidates is a terrible leader of his own hand-picked team(s).
He’s the one with leaky Depends, and the one slathered in pumpkin hued concealer, from head to toe. As well as tons of bad cologne.
Yikes.
Out.
Powerline Lies... 
I’ve considered writing an email to Paul, requesting that he allow comments from non-subscribers. The subscribers-only model leads to an echo chamber of everybody basically agreeing with everybody else. But then I think, why bother?
In other news, I was amused by this post from Hinderaker, in which he is shocked, shocked that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is campaigning for Kamala Harris. I found this sentence to be especially disingenuous:
Really, John? That’s the closest analogy you can recall? How about when Donald J. Trump tried to coerce Zelensky into stumping for him by announcing a bogus investigation into Joe Biden? You must remember. It was in all the papers. Funny how that didn’t seem to bother you.
Yes, Zelensky’s actions may be unprecedented, but these are unprecedented times, and John’s wrong (or, more likely, lying) about why it’s happening. Quite simply, it’s happening because the Republican candidate for president poses an existential threat to this country, as well as Ukraine. That’s what’s so unprecedented, John.
But I suspect you knew that already.

I read almost all of what each of them writes, these days…
As flop-sweaty… desperation.
Thanks man! Still mostly off grid until Monday next….

Enjoy your time away from the fray. In the meantime, today’s post from Bill Otis about the death penalty is really sticking in my craw. The fact that he could, on September 25, 2024, publish a post about the death penalty (with a blithe dismissal of racism concerns) and not mention Marcellus Williams is astonishing to me.

The fact that he could write a post about Donald Trump and the death penalty without mentioning the Central Park Five is astonishing to me.
