Why Mark Pocan, D-Madison, voted against the debt limit deal
“Forget the debt ceiling. The Biden-McCarthy compromise is a big deal because it is a spending compromise. An important provision of the deal is that if, by the end of the year, the House and Senate haven’t passed 12 appropriations bills (the long-forgotten way budgeting is supposed to work), all discretionary spending would become subject to an automatic 1% cut. This is what is known as a “sequester.” A sequester is to Democrats what garlic is to vampires. …
“The truth today is this: The modern Democratic Party — the party of Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and the House Squad — won’t cut or slow spending for any existing federal program, ever. Now, Mr. McCarthy’s negotiators have managed to create a wedge against the left’s massive opposition to spending reforms.”

“The ‘Chaos’ at the border is by design”
“As a presidential candidate in 2020, Biden criticized Trump for “drastically” restricting access to asylum. Now he’s doing the very same thing.”

Question of the Day
What ‘Deep State’?
Rachael Rollins, the US attorney for Massachusetts, leaked sensitive Justice Department information to a journalist in an effort to influence a local election, lied to investigators and improperly attended a fundraiser with Jill Biden, according to two critical federal reports released Wednesday. (More here.)
How can anyone take them seriously?
Charles C.W. Cooke asks at National Review.
“Rachel Maddow made a career out of spreading lunatic conspiracy theories on MSNBC, as did Chris Hayes and Nicolle Wallace (who is still, today, rejecting all evidence that contradicts her fever dream). Adam Schiff lied relentlessly from his official perch on the United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs, and is now gearing up to run for the Senate.”

Ever since The Gotch…um…observed ~70 months ago that Jimmy Leonhard should not have even been in the conversation for the Badger DC gig, much less get the job, he hasn’t been real big on predictions.
But he’ll make an exception…
Based on what most of the known Universe is predicting six (6) short days from now, he…er…foresees Lefty suffering a dangerous, yet voluntary, immersion into a catatonic, apoplectic, pillow-biting, pants $#!tting, bed wetting, wind-sucking, chest palpitating, vital sign ramping, mouth-breathing, fist-pounding, foot stomping, safe-space seeking, triggering, weenie-whiny, simpering-whimpering, complete metaphysical, emotional, existential, psychological, philosophical, full-throated, freaking out, melting down, spittle-flecked, furiously-frothing, totally collapsing free-fall.
This is neither health promoting, nor is it an enviable state of affairs for those perilously close to the dark abyss to begin with!

I’m with you Gotch. My own prediction is best summed up from the past. Did you ever see The Young Turks coverage of election night in 2016? That, plus a few more tears and dementia.

From Ethics Alarms, an astute explanation why races (of the ELECTORAL variety, not despicable Lefty’s favorite eternal-ongoing efforts to sow division with Identity Politics) tighten up in the home stretch:
(bolds/caps/italics mine throughout)
“There’s another factor at play in political polling that is often overlooked. Most of the polls are paid for by media companies. Media companies that want to sell advertising space to political candidates. This is one reason why the POLLS ALWAYS TIGHTEN UP AS THE ELCTION NEARS.
“You can’t squeeze any more money out of a campaign if the polls show them down by ten points. But if the polls suddenly show surging, previously unseen support, you can sell more ads to both campaigns.
“A demoralized candidate stops spending. One with some false hope will empty his coffers in the final week, and his opponent will spend to counter that…
“Political spending is an enormous biennial windfall for these companies, and THEY’VE FIGURED OUT HOW TO MAXIMALLY EXTRACT REVENUE from that source.”
Working both ends against the middle? It don’t get any more Pure Capitalist than that, am I right?
