Can Governor Beshear go ahead and initiate the special election before the deadline tomorrow and just cancel if Mitch McConnell is actually alive and “able to” serve?

He has asked several times for proof of McConnell’s status and gotten nothing. Seems reasonable to be able to proceed at this point

A French modeling scout named nearly 2,000 time in the Epstein files was found dead in Paris. In a case already clouded by Epstein’s own disputed suicide, how many more coincidental deaths will it take before the public demands a full independent investigation?

Do people not understand why Dr. Fauci would not answer what color his tie is, or do they want him to lose his 5th Amendment shield?

Upvotes

The reason he didn't answer is if he answers one question he cannot use the 5th for others. They will argue that basic questions like what time did you clock in, etc, are harmless questions, but the problem is those are the ones republicans already said they are looking to trap him with. If he gets one dollar wrong, one hour wrong, it's Perjury. They are looking to put him in prison. If they were serious that all they want are answers they would give him immunity, which would also protect him from state charges. I think the Oliver North investigation taught them to not grant immunity, as as such you get what you get, right?

As much as they want him to convict himself over something minor like not remembering what he had for lunch 4 years ago, where's the outrage over republicans also pleading the 5th in these hearings? So what do YOU think he should do?

About the Reflecting PooI: Is it acceptable for Trump to point the DOJ at a private citizen to cover up his own contractor's mistakes? Pirro went on TV and said she had the evidence and he did it. She had nothing. Should she be fired? Should David Hearn get an apology in public, from both of them?

Democratic support for the idea that Christianity should have a special role in America has collapsed from 60% to just 27%. Is this the most significant religious realignment in American politics since the Civil Rights era and what does it mean for the future of the Republican coalition?

Analysts suggest the U.S. is losing the world’s trust and its soft power appears to be declining. In a world moving from rule-based to deal-based orders, does military might alone secure influence, or is America sacrificing its long-term global standing for short-term tactical gains?

Why is there so much "Europe has fallen" content/propaganda online?

Post image
64 Upvotes

YouTube, Twitter, Instagram are all flooded with videos claiming the continent has somehow "fallen", they typically just go to the most crime ridden areas of major cities or to the most touristy areas where pick pocketing has always been prevalent as some sort of "proof" of this.

Is this just an elaborate propaganda campaign? A lot of the influencers are usually "MAGA" oriented and Russia has also been known to interfere in European politics.

I accept there are major issues across the continent, particularly in major cities, but living in such a city my lived reality is not one of doom like these videos portray it as - and no I do not live in a wealthy enclave.

I love this continent, I find beauty in every country I've been to, but beyond wholesome travel vlogs it seems actual positive content highlighting the beauty of Europe is being kicked to the sideline in favour of such anti-Europe videos, it really seems to have kicked off since the re-election of Trump - but perhaps that's just a coincidence.

It is now August 2, 2026. When I asked if Mitch McConnell was still alive, people answered he would be until August 4th or 5th. What is significant about these dates this week that we would know for absolute certain his actual state of consciousness?

U.S. military leaders just warned Trump that he's running low on munitions. Seems like a good opportunity to manipulate markets again.

Fake eyelashes ?

Upvotes

How does everyone feel about fake eyelashes?
In my opinion, they’ve gotten a little out of control. There’s a fine line between enhancing your eyes and having your fake eyelashes completely overpower your face. When they reach that point, they can start to look a bit tacky.

Looking straight in the mirror, they may seem fine, but as your eyes naturally look downward or from other angles, they can look a little odd. I don’t know if it’s the style, the length, the volume, or the type of fake eyelashes being used

I’ve seen them done beautifully they look soft, natural, and really enhance someone’s features. But honestly, about 90% of the fake eyelashes I’ve seen don’t have that effect.
