Neither Trump or Biden will be nominated. Majority of the country want neither.  New, fresh candidates will be selected at each convention.

Democrats will pick a moderate governor from a red state such as Beshear or Laura Kelly from Kansas who will run as Bill Clinton 2 .0 and be strong on crime and the border . Democrats elites know they cannot pick a far lefty. The country is swinging back to the middle

Not sure about the Republicans. ..but very likely a moderate woman to win back the women's vote  either a governor or a strong AG from a red state. Trump/Republican party  is hemorrhaging the women vote and he cannot win without their support.

The country is in the middle politically and most people do not want either the far left or the far right  in power. And are tired of geriatric retreads.

Except the actual primary voters elected a majority of delegates who are committed to those two candidates, and under the rules of both parties, the delegates are legally obligated to vote for those candidates on the first ballot.

Also, a majority of Democrats are not aligned with either Beshear or Kelly - that's why they are in otherwise conservative states.  Either of them would have been crushed by Biden in the primary.

How popular is the AR-15?
By Mike McDaniel

On April 13, American Thinker posted Should I Buy An AR-15? That article generated 99 comments, and suggested there are some 30 million ARs in private hands in America. I also suggested one of the best reasons to buy an AR-15 is the Mummified Meat Puppet Administration (MMPA) doesn’t want you to have one, that and you’re a free American and want one. It seems tens of millions of Americans agree:



The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) recently released a “Firearm Production in the United States and the Firearm Import and Export Data” report which indicates that 28,144,000 modern sporting rifles (MSRs) have been put into circulation since 1990. MSR production increased 32 percent from 2020 to 2021 alone.

“Modern sporting rifle” has become the standard term for the AR-15 and its several variants, though it arguably encompasses such arms as the Ruger Mini-14, even semiautomatic AK-47/74 variants. “AR,” by the way, is not an acronym for Assault Rifle, nor for “Assault Weapon,” a designation that does not exist in firearm nomenclature, but is an invention of the anti-liberty/gun Left designed to scare the uninformed into thinking semiautomatic AR-15s are machineguns. The AR-15 platform was invented by Eugene Stoner, who then worked for Armalite, thus “AR,” Armalite Rifle. Stoner invented the AR-10 first, chambered in .308/7.62 NATO, but scaled it down to the AR-15 in .223/5.56 NATO for the Air Force, the first military branch to adopt it, with its iconic triangular handguard, in M-16 form.

Call his bluff.

Jailing a man for NDA shenanigans?  While a perp walk to the slammer will be a wet dream for the MSNBC slugs, it might add another 2-3 points to the Trump poll advantage.

Tulsi Gabbard: Why it's time to leave the Democrat party behind
By D. Parker

Have you noticed the recent trend of true liberals leaving the left?  You’ll see it on Substack and other places.  People you would normally consider to be on the “left” side of the political spectrum have shifted, in a relative sense, toward the pro-freedom side.

It’s a case of the fringe far left leaving everyone else behind, as epitomized in the Elon Musk meme, which showed him in the same place on the political spectrum.  At the same time, the insane leftists moved off the scale.

The party that at least used to pretend to care about the middle class, fundamental freedoms, and individual rights has become the party of wealth redistribution — to the leftist ruling class — the destruction of the country, marching toward war, and rampant corruption.  Sadly enough, the Republicans are only marginally better, but were they to take advantage of the candidacy of President Trump instead of shying away from it like the Gutless Old Party, then we could succeed in blowing the “Democratic” party out of the water — for good.

Tulsi Gabbard is one of the more prominent examples, but there are many others of varying stature.  Her short video and voice-over make the case for leaving the Democratic Party:

A Massive Scandal Is Brewing in Los Angeles After DA George Gascon's Number 3 Is Charged With 11 Felonies

https://redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2024/04/29/how-arrest-of-gascons-top-assistant-blow-lid-off-rampant-corruption-la-county-n2173393

That sounds rather vanilla, but additional details on what Teran is alleged to have done demonstrate that there's nothing vanilla about it at all. It's more convoluted than any script Hollywood could come up with. At this time it's not clear specifically which peace officer files Teran has been charged with using improperly since the detailed criminal complaint was filed under seal, but the following information on her activities relating to personnel files has been provided to RedState by numerous sources in law enforcement, county government, and in Gascón's office:

Between 2014-18, as Constitutional Policing Advisor for LASD, Teran withheld exculpatory evidence from Internal Affairs Bureau (IAB) investigations and findings, leading to the discipline and termination of deputies who should have been exonerated.

NOTE: Those deputies' personnel files would then contain inaccurate information about their actions, and could improperly taint cases they were involved in.

Starting in June 2018 Teran improperly accessed and downloaded the personnel files of then-candidate Villanueva and other LASD employees who supported his campaign, allegedly at Huntsman's direction.

The weekend before Villanueva was sworn in, according to sources, Huntsman sent Teran into the Sheriff's office with an external hard drive and instructions to gather additional personnel files.

After leaving LASD when Villanueva took office in late 2018, Teran went to work with the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and eventually the LA County Public Defender's office, and sources close to the current investigation have told RedState that Teran added information from the personnel files to the Public Defender's database. (She is not charged with doing so currently, and we do not have independent verification of that.)

When Villanueva learned in early 2019 that personnel files had been improperly removed, he initiated an investigation into Teran and Huntsman; Huntsman aligned with anti-cop members of the LA County Board of Supervisors to shut it down.

Teran allegedly used information within one deputy's personnel file to charge him with domestic violence once she was working at the DA's office, just a few days before the statute of limitations would have run.

According to sources within Gascón's office, Teran uploaded the personnel file information into a database (likely the ORWITS database) at Gascón's office.

Teran used the information in these files when she headed up Gascón's re-investigation of officer-involved shootings and use-of-force incidents that had already been cleared under former DA Jackie Lacey, according to sources within Gascón's office, and Gascón was in the room with her when she did so. At least a few of those deputies were criminally charged.
