Jake Sherman@JakeSherman, "GAETZ WITHDRAWING FROM A.G.", Quote, Matt Gaetz@mattgaetz, :I had excellent meetings with
Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the
incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong, it is clear that
my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of
the Trump/Vance. . . " George@BehizyTweets, "It's being reported that Matt Gaetz had the support of every Republican
Senator except four Senator Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) Senator Lisa Murkowski
(Alaska) Senator John Curtis (Utah) Senator Susan Collins (Maine) I AM SO
PISSED RIGHT NOW! Why did Utah vote for a Mitt Romney clone? Why do people in
Kentucky keep voting for McConnell? Why do Alaskans keep voting for Lisa
Murkowski? It's shameful." Matt Vespa at TownHall, Matt Gaetz Withdraws From Attorney General Nomination and Is This Why Gaetz Withdrew His Name From Consideration for Attorney
General? "It was members of the ‘we suck’ caucus, with Curtis, who is replacing
Romney, seemingly taking up the role of his predecessor, Romney, in being an
all-around pain in the a**." 'Bonchie' at RedState on the Matt Gaetz Withdrawal: Why It Happened, and What Comes Next. Capt. Ed At Hat Hair, Gaetz Withdraws "Surprise? Perhaps only in the timing. After an initial pass around the
Senate in confabs, Matt Gaetz has decided to withdraw his nomination for
Attorney General." Tyler O'Neal at Da Signal, Matt Gaetz Withdraws Attorney General Nomination. NewsMax, Gaetz Withdraws From AG Consideration. At Hat Hair,

Scott Jennings Offers Some Sage Words for Republicans Who Are Reeling Over
Matt Gaetz. "I think the rest of them all could be confirmed. Gaetz, I think as I've
said to you that day, he always struck me as being in a different category. I
think everybody else is still within the realm of confirmable. So this job, my
advice would be let's find somebody who starts above water, not below
water." Mark Hemingway@Heminator "What is this insane belief that the AG should be adversarial to the
President?
Holder said he was Obama’s “wingman” and I don’t recall Axe saying it was
disturbing the president had a yes-man in place." Quote, David
Axelrod@davidaxelrod, "This was a terrible idea from the start. The fact that
he was forced to withdraw speaks to some semblance of checks and balances, as
he--and team Trump--read the room in the Senate GOP. Now Trump may elevate his

NewsMax,
Dem Casey Concedes Pa. Senate Race, Boosting GOP Majority. It's been a foregone conclusion for a long time. I wonder if he wasn't
holding out to give cover for Democrats to stuff ballots in some local
elections. Hat Hair's Duane Patterson is
Crawling Through The Democratic Wreckage and finds "The biggest failure of the liberals in this cycle,
among dozens of failures, was their performance with men - all of them. A lot
of strategists know this, and are desperately trying to convince anyone on the
left who will listen to shed a lot of the social issues that did not resonate
even a little bit, and rediscover what will attract the working-class males
they've driven away." Chronicles explains why they think
Why Democrats Are Losing Tomorrow’s Elections Today "States that voted for Kamala Harris this year are set to lose 12 seats
in the House of Representatives, and an equal number of presidential electors,
after 2030, according to the two groups’ extrapolations from Census Bureau
data." But I seriously doubt Kamala will be on the 2028 ticket.
Geoff Shullenberger@g_shullenberger, "The astonishing collapse in Democratic support in deep blue areas is the
strongest evidence that the 2024 election was, in fact, a referendum on
2020-era progressivism, and the progressives lost decisively."

election...." ""Trump won the suburbs.... Rural areas went even more for Trump....

Read the whole thing
and you will find no attempt to explain why turnout was so much worse in
these “heavily Democratic cities,” because this might lead to questions
about why these “heavily Democratic cities” had such phenomenally high
turnout in 2020. What happened in 2020 that did not happen in 2024? Well,
four years ago, Facebook founder
Mark Zuckerberg poured millions of dollars into so-called “non-partisan”
tax-exempt 501(c)3 organizations
that sought to maximize turnout, and this year, not so much. My suspicion is
that the “Zuckbucks” get-out-the-vote operation in 2020 amounted to
wholesale election fraud using what
Steven Kruiser has derisively called “Magic Mail-In Ballots.”
Why didn’t the same thing happen in 2024? Well, first of all,
Republicans raised hell about election integrity and Democrats, realizing
that they couldn’t get away with running the same game again, refrained from
the most egregious practices that had tainted 2020. Also, however,
Zuckerberg stopped pouring out money (or certainly did not spend as much as
he did in 2020) for the Democrat ballot-harvesting gangs.
Is Biden, or whoever is pulling his strings, pushing us into WWIII in time for the inauguration? Althouse,
Insane not to think about. Ian Miles Cheong@stillgray, "Just one of these could level an entire European city within 20 minutes of being launched. Insane to think about."
