We need to focus on securing basic human rights for all Americans, then we should demand it from the countries we do business with. <b>Best Politician</b> -- Katie Porter. No one makes CEO's and executives from the largest corporations break out in a cold sweat like she does simply by rolling out her whiteboard. She makes puts difficult economic topics into very plain language that anyone can understand. Porter has made more than one CEO have to say outloud the truth about how their companies are knowingly robbing us blind. <b>Worst Politician</b> -- Can we really call Herschel Walker a "Politician" since he lost his bid to become Georgia's Congressional Senator and he's never held office? No, we will stick with Trump as the Worst of the Worst. <b>Most Defining Political Moment</b> -- Liz Cheney's standing firm in her condemnation of Donald Trump's attempt to overthrow our government to remain in power... even as it cost her her seat in the Senate. Or maybe it was Georgia's Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan telling reporters that he did not vote for GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker in the runoff election against incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga. "I had two candidates that I just couldn’t find anything that made sense for me to put my vote behind, and so I walked out of that ballot box showing up to vote but not voting for either one of them," he added. Gotta respect his honesty for not supporting Walker. <b>Turncoat Of The Year</b> — Liz Cheney <b>Most Boring</b> — Mike Pence. The man is Ambien incarnate. <b>Most Charismatic</b> — John Fetterman. I don’t know how he summoned the courage to continue being part of the political debates after suffering his stroke. But that man is without a doubt blessed with brass balls the size of grapefruits! I have good friends whose ability to speech was forever altered from suffering a stroke. One was a 18yo senior baseball player at one of the schools I worked with. I know how he struggled with the frustration of not being able to speak at the same pace that he could form the words in his mind. How ashamed he was to speak up at all for months after the accident.

The Ukrainian grandmother who gave Russian troops handfuls of sunflower seeds and told them to put them in their pockets for safe keeping. That way, she said, when they are killed and their bodies turn to dirt, the seeds will grow and serve as markers for where they died. I wonder how many of the Russian troops that surrendered and gave up the fight did so with sunflower seeds in their pockets. <b>Worst Photo Op </b> — The family of a police officer who died after the January 6th insurrection refused to shake either Mitch McConnell's or Kevin McCarthy's hand during a ceremony awarding all the brave cops who fought that day for democracy the Congressional Gold Medal. This was precisely the level of respect that both McConnell and McCarthy have earned, it almost goes without saying. Ivanka Trump not showing up for Daddy Dumbest’s 2024 Presidential Campaign kickoff. She doesn’t want that ruining her brand. That had to hurt! Makes you wonder if that wasn’t why Trump was in such low spirits that night… his sexy daughter had rejected him.

The GOP is going after the family member of the President who is not in politics. If there were truly any evidence of wrongdoing by the Biden’s, Trump’s FBI and DOJ would have made the case for it before the election took place. But the truth is that no one can provide any evidence that it was Hunter Biden who handed over the laptop and hard drive to the shop owner to be repaired. Not even the shop owner can testify to the identity of the person he received the laptop from because he is legally blind. The chain of evidence was broken at the very first link. Hunter Biden has plenty of faults… many that he has been very open and honest about suffering from.

The biggest reason is its intertwined history with Russia AND its proximity to Moscow. It has never made sense for Ukraine to be a NATO member and, indeed, if it still has aspirations of being in NATO it will have to give them up to end this war. Is that fair? What's fair in this world? John M,
