We must get past this Tuesday, but looking forward to the future is important. Seeing the polls now and historic election trends, I think there is a genuine possibility that 2028 could be a landslide for Democrats. This is the base map that I think will be applicable in 2028. Democrats only need to win …

This is my prediction map for the election. I think Harris has a 7/8 chance of winning. Georgia, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania are pure tossups. Arizona will not make a difference. Harris will win the presidency if she wins one of those three swing states. Giving Trump only a 1/8 chance of being elected on …
https://ukranews.com/en/news/1044377-zelenskyy-indignant-at-leaking-of-secret-clause-of-victory-plan-with-request-for-tomahawk-missiles Yesterday, we saw the most significant intelligence leak of confidential military information in the United States’ history. It is guaranteed that whoever leaked the details of the Victory Plan shared them with Moscow, putting the whole world in danger. The plan was shared with NATO heads of state and Donald Trump.

Watch this video first. This is a response. I agree with his analysis. Shirvan is correct that these four states have many conflicts.

We could make it so every abandoned railroad automatically becomes AMTRAK property. Every failed railroad becomes AMTRAK property as well. As AMTRAK reinvests in these and builds a profitable income base eventually AMTRAK becomes the national operator. We do what I will call the America Plan, where failed railroads become part of AMTRAK and mergers …
Assassinating bin Laden was the right thing to do. He was a dangerous man. Assassinating bin Laden did not cause al Qaeda to collapse. Assassinating bin Laden did not lead to America winning the War in Afghanistan. It was still the right thing to do. Assassination of terrorist leaders is only the first step towards …
Reason 1: The Electoral College makes some votes worth more than others. This one is pretty obvious and a common complaint. Presidential candidates campaign mostly in swing states while mostly ignoring other states. Shouldn’t we live in an America where each person is equally important? Campaigning for votes in Los Angeles or Boston should have …

If you have ever been on Facebook or most newspapers, you probably notice that they push depressing media. People are more likely to stay engaged if they feel like something is threatening them, which means more scrolling and ad revenue. It’s a vicious cycle for the user.
