Many people may recall that the New York Post has in the past bought exclusives to scandalous stories involving Donald Trump in the aim of *not running them* and thus killing the story, but the thing I find most remarkable about this paper is that they have, on more than one occasion, dedicated whole-page full-colour front pages to humiliating individual named homeless people that irritated the editor:

Classy.

California Republican Party Admits It Placed Misleading Ballot Boxes Around State

Government officials say the receptacles are illegal and could lead to election fraud, but the party says it will continue the practice.

This is the sort of thing that would have shocked me if it was happening in Zimbabwe thirty years ago. To think that this is the USA...

It gets better! Early voting has now officially opened in a number of states and we have ~20 days out from the election and there are already people queueing for multiple hours to vote. Insanity.

Is it not time to start jailing people?

She's an embarrassment (Chinese spies aside.)

There's great vid of her going through a private airport terminal sans mask in immediate vicinity of her helpers a couple of weeks back also, while out in the public loudly playing the mask blame game.

What is wrong with the Dem party in California with both Pelosi and Feinstein reigning supreme for so long.

Speaking as a Brit. I think Pelosi is terrific. Runs rings around Trump. Can’t comment on the other person.

Don't even need to go back two weeks for her modelling terrible covid behaviour; she hugged Graham - a man who won't take a covid test in case he tests positive - without either of them wearing masks last night:

Pelosi has been in charge for far too long and has done nothing to change the course of the country presiding over numerous dem losses to the republicans. She only survived the rise of the tea party and latterly Trump due to the corrupt influence of big money in the Dem party. 

This says nothing about her personal wealth, her family history and the business activities of her husband, which include some postal service fun, which I am sure the posters here are very aware of...

Here's Nancy telling the nation how she understands the suffering of the American people... sickening level of hubris.
