Does it feel to anyone else like OHJB is genuinely proud of these ladies' accomplishments? Same feeling I've had when he's hosted other teams and individuals. He's so HAPPY for them, and he wants us to be happy and proud too.

The reason the GOP soccer team never wins a game is they have 11 right wingers, can't defend their positions, and there's not a keeper amongst them.

"Trump-loving sheriff booted off election security duties after incendiary anti-Harris post"

Portage County, Ohio Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski caused an uproar earlier this month when he posted on Facebook that his supporters should "write down" the addresses of local residents in the county who had signs supporting Vice President Kamala Harris on their lawns.

Now The Daily Beast reports that Zuchowski's department has been stripped of its election security duties after multiple residents expressed discomfort with giving him any oversight role in the upcoming presidential election.

The move to boot Zuchowski and his department out of election security duties came Friday when the local Portage County elections board voted to remove it in a 3-1 vote.

It's also abundantly clear that Handsome Joe is a warm and welcoming fellow who makes visitors feel comfortable at THEIR house.

It just makes me feel so good to recognize what a decent and genuine individual Joe Biden has remained after all of these years.

Huh, is Biden even trying? Where are the room temp McDonalds burgers on a silver platter? How can he celebrate a championship team without limp french fries in a greasy paper bag?

Gotham FC? Damn, I want to watch them face off against Metropolis or Star City or Coast City or Central City. Don’t listen to the rumors about sports gambling in the Hall of Justice.

You don't go to sporting events in Gotham unless you want to be murdered by a clown... or murdered by a plant lady... or murdered by clown lady... murdered by a mad scientist... murdered by the former district attorney...

Metropolis is mildly better, but you still risk getting crushed by pieces of building debris or getting stuck on the freeway for hours or having your car picked up and used as a weapon against Superman... and do you think your insurance will cover that? No! Acts of god they say.

Please. Most of these assholes wouldn't survive two seconds on a soccer pitch. More than likely, they'd get winded just getting up from their Barcaloungers to grab another bag of Cheetos.

The guys I’m talking about would be the right-wingers’ poster children for the evils of woke feminism. Just like their treatment of of white women in Olympic boxing.

The latest NBC News poll found Harris holding a 5 percentage point lead over the GOP nominee, 49-44%, which is within the margin of error for the survey. Biden trailed Trump by 2 percentage points, 45-43%, in a July poll. Kornacki added that 32% of voters polled had a positive view of Harris prior to Biden dropping out and the start of her campaign back in July. The latest poll shows 48% of respondents had a positive view of the vice president. “This is the largest increase that we have seen for any politician since George W. Bush in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks,” Welker noted of Harris’ rise in popularity. [HuffPost]

I suspect that the good economy is not filtering down to some segments of America. Rural areas seem to be lagging behind, particularly in Red States.

Are they? It's entirely possible but with the MSM just flogging how high prices are and how (maybe) bad the market is, it is hard to know what is true and what is "vibes".

There's a bit of that, as there always is. But there's also a lot more misinformation about the economy.

Averages show Harris up by three to four, if those change, it'll be time to panic and start thinking about what you're going to do in a theocratic, fascist America.

As it is, 3-4 points is still too close to call.
