Why wouldn't you let Biden ride your bike? I would totally let Biden ride my bike. Iffn' I had a bike. Bike sharing is a thing. You can just check them out with an app.

"Trump Aide"??? The United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development is an aide now?

PEOPLE OF GEORGIA. You don’t have to believe political opponents, media, or others. This is Herschel Walker, his son and his ex-wife in their own words. 48 clips in less than 4 minutes. This is the man Donald Trump chose to represent you in the US Senate for the next 6 years.

I see he's borrowed Fetterman's social media manager.

How about Warlocks for Warnock?

In the show I saw, the vampires threw the squeaky toy off the top floor of the parking garage.

That took care of the werewolf.

This is at least the Third money beg I have received in 48 hours from not the candy date, but dems. The other two came from the DNC direct and the one from Adam Schiff -- all offer to split 50-50 any donation from me between themselves and Rev Warnock.

You think Democrats are more ethical in their grifts than Republicans?

Probably not, and I hate it, but I also used to bemoan R’s fundraising advantage.

For a short while, I rejoiced in the drop in political emails after the election ended. I have also been bummed by the uptick. I am also setting up a new email that will never be used for politics.

Herschel Walker Trolled With 'Quite Astonishing' Attack Ad Featuring Donald Trump
Sen. Raphael Warnock's spot sends a simple yet stark message about his rival in Georgia's Senate race.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) this week released a simple but potentially devastating attack ad against Herschel Walker, his Donald Trump-endorsed rival in Georgia’s runoff election for U.S. Senate.

Warnock’s spot features the former president effusively praising Walker, whom he describes as a “great person” and “fabulous human being.”

The ad is “quite astonishing,” broadcaster Chris Wallace said Friday on CNN.

“It is just playing Trump’s endorsement of Walker. And clearly the Warnock campaign feels this is ... an albatross,” he told colleague Don Lemon. “This is a liability for Walker, not a plus.”

After multiple Trump-endorsed candidates lost their races in this month’s midterm elections, Republicans urged the former president to delay any announcement about a new bid for the White House until after the Dec. 6 runoff. The Georgia contest was seen as potentially key in determining control of the Senate.

Many in the GOP feared then — and still do now — that Walker’s association with the former president could jeopardize his chances of winning.

Judge rules early voting in runoff on Saturday after Thanksgiving allowed in Georgia

BY JARED GANS -

A judge in Georgia ruled Friday that voters in the state can participate in early voting on the Saturday after Thanksgiving ahead of next month’s runoff between Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) and his Republican challenger, Herschel Walker.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox said in his ruling that a state law prohibiting the holding of early voting two days after a holiday does not apply to runoffs, only primaries and general elections.

Warnock joined a lawsuit from Georgia Democrats and the Senate Democrats’ campaign arm on Wednesday that argued early voting should be allowed on Nov. 26.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) originally indicated that voting would be permitted on that day, but his office walked back the statement based on their interpretation of the law.

A law passed last year changed Georgia’s election laws, reducing the period of time for a runoff to be conducted after a general election from nine weeks to four weeks. The updated timeline caused the only Saturday available for early voting to be two days after Thanksgiving.

Raffensperger’s office argued that the holiday-focused law applied to all primaries, general elections and runoffs, but Cox disagreed.

Cox noted in his ruling that the portion of the law at issue only mentions the words “primary or election” and does not reference runoffs as it does in other parts of the law. He said the legislature could have decided to include runoffs in the section when it was crafting the law, but they chose not to.

Herschel Walker falsely accused Raphael Warnock of sexual and physical abuse at a youth camp.

Walker: “This young man said there was sexual abuse and there was physical abuse. I’m like, who did that? It has to be Senator Raphael Warnock because he was responsible for it.”

[raison de arizona]

Despicable.

[Phoenix520]

Sounds a bit desperate.

[Gupwalla]

Meanwhile, retiring Senator Jim Langford is hoping no one googles for details about senators and youth camp sexual abuse.

(For the record, Langford was not himself accused of such abuse. Also for the record, Cardinal Law was not himself accused of such abuse.)

Looks to me the Walker campaign ought to challenge him for evidence, get "this young man" to speak in the open. Where is the law suit?
