The Democrats' crisis

 American Action News:

NBC host Kristen Welker questioned Democratic New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker Sunday on whether his party’s increasingly popular talking point about America supposedly being in a “constitutional crisis” is a winning strategy.

Towards the end of former Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign against President Donald Trump, she and fellow Democrats ramped up their rhetoric, claiming Trump was not only a “threat to democracy,” but also a “fascist,” comparing him to Adolf Hitler. On “Meet the Press,” Welker pressed Booker on the Democrats’ new talking point, playing a clip of multiple lawmakers repeating the phrase “constitutional crisis” before reminding him that similar rhetoric did not win them the November election.

“Some of your colleagues have been saying that America is in a ‘constitutional crisis,’” Welker said. “Senator, as you know, Democrats just lost an election, largely with the closing argument accusing Trump of being a threat to the democracy. Is that the most effective messaging right now?”

“I think the most effective messaging is talking about the crisis that’s happening to Americans,” Booker responded.

Welker then intervened, stating that based on Booker’s response, the party “shouldn’t be talking about a constitutional crisis.” However, Booker pushed back, saying the “crisis” is occurring “now,” and calling out the Trump administration’s budget and personnel cuts across the federal government.
...

It is not a constitutional crisis when Democrats lose elections. Republicans winning elections is not a "threat to democracy."  Comparing Trump to Hiler is absurd.  Trump is not anti-semantic.  He even has Jewish grandchildren that he adores.

Democrats would be better served if they focused on policy differences and not on attempting to demonize Trump and Musk.

Lib Posts Call for Musk’s Murder on TikTok, Gets Quick Reply From US Attorney

Acting United States Attorney Ed Martin of the District of Columbia replied to a post Monday showing a video of a woman calling for the assassination of Tesla CEO and White House Senior Advisor Elon Musk.

Martin previously opened probes into Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia of California over allegedly threatening comments they made about Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and U.S. Supreme Court justices, CBS News reported. The TikTok user admitted to not filing her taxes for eight years before she called for Musk’s murder in a video reposted to X by LibsofTikTok.

“I promised myself I would avoid the news,” the woman, who goes by the username “sarahcroberts” on the since-deleted account, said. “But obviously, I haven’t. Here’s my one thought – I have many thoughts – Elon Musk,” before making a gesture that appeared to mimic cutting a throat.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
