[Foxnews] "You're boiling the frog too fast!" Sez the asshole that wanted to take your 401K funds and leave an IOU note.
Former Congressman Barney Frank warned on Sunday that Democrats of going too far left while dying in a hospice of congestive heart failure in Maine.
Frank, 86, was a liberal stalwart who fought to legalize same-sex marriage and helped pass Dodd-Frank, the Wall Street regulations, after the 2008 financial crash.
"We didn’t get to marriage until after these other things had been resolved," Frank said on CNN's "State of the Union."

Scandal
In 1985, Frank was still publicly closeted. That year he hired Steve Gobie, a male prostitute, for sex, and they became "more friends than sexual partners."[37] Frank housed Gobie and hired him with personal funds as an aide, housekeeper and driver and paid for his attorney and court-ordered psychiatrist.[37]
In 1987, Frank evicted Gobie after being advised by his landlord that Gobie kept escorting despite the support and was doing so in the residence

CHF is not easily predictable. Despite being in hospice, he could be around another year or so.

Congressman Frank doesn’t understand, being of the older generation: if today’s Democratic politicians do not loudly support the radical Democratic Socialist party line, the left side of the party will eviscerate them in the primaries, not to mention doxxing them and harrying their families. After that they won’t need to worry about being able to entice the center in November, because they won’t be in the running.
[Reuters] Peru's National Jury of Elections (JNE) on Saturday requested a "comprehensive and exhaustive IT audit" of the results of the general elections held on April 12, it said in a statement.
The final results of the first round of the elections remain unclear and the vote count is still incomplete with 97.5% of the ballots counted. No clear presidential rival has emerged to face conservative frontrunner Keiko Fujimori in a June run-off.
The JNE called for the independent audit "as a concrete and decisive step to strengthen the transparency, integrity, and reliability of the election results," the statement said.
Left-wing congressman Roberto Sanchez and ultra-conservative Rafael Lopez Aliaga remain deadlocked for second place, separated by roughly 28,000 votes, as disputed tally sheets from more than 1 million ballots are being reviewed in hopes of ascertaining the results.
A spokesperson for the JNE told Reuters that a possible audit would not interrupt the review of the contested ballots.
Peru's April election and the subsequent vote count have sparked widespread confusion in the Andean nation, with several candidates alleging fraud. On April 21, the head of Peru's electoral authority, Piero Corvetto, resigned over mounting pressure for clarity.
Corvetto had previously acknowledged logistical delays to the electoral process, but denied that any irregularities took place. European Union election observers said in April that they found no evidence of fraud.
Final results are expected no later than May 15, JNE officials said in April.
But they deliberately closed their eyes to the facts, voting for him anyway because he’s charmingly socialist and speaks well. Useful idiots. I hope they feel every step of their beloved city’s decline, because they helped make it happen.

Moslems are conquering NYC. All the Gaza stuff is just a distraction. If they can take NYC, how do we propose to protect any city that the Dems already own?

[Townhall] Former President Joe Biden made an appearance to endorse Keisha Lance Bottoms in the Democratic primary for Georgia governor.
Biden looks and sounds terrible, and the video has multiple jump cuts.
Oh dear.
"Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. I've known her for a long time and she's something special," Biden said. "As Mayor of Atlanta, Keisha faced every challenge a leader could face and then some. A global pandemic, a major cyber attack on the city systems, economic uncertainty, that tested every community across Georgia. But she handled it all with steady, thoughtful leadership. That's the definition of battle-tested."
Gee, who was President during that economic uncertainty? Biden.
"Keisha's tenure as mayor of Atlanta left $180 million in the bank," Biden continued, "without raising property taxes. Gave historic pay raises to police and firefighters, created a child savings account for every kindergartener in Atlanta's public school system. That's a record to be proud of. And then she came to the White House and served as a senior advisor. And I'll tell you, those same qualities that made her a great mayor made her invaluable to our administration."
"Smart. Focused. Gets things done. Georgia, she's ready. She's been ready. Keisha Lance Bottoms for governor now," Biden said. "I'm proud to be in her corner, just like she was in mine. So let's get this thing done."

If Dems can maintain control of Fulton County elections to the extent that they can create a large number of fake votes one more time, they can win a statewide office like they did for Biden and in the Senate elections. If they control the governorship, they can do a lot.

[Regnum] US President Donald Trump once again called on Israeli President Isaac Herzog to pardon Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amid ongoing legal proceedings against him. The American leader stated this in an interview with Israeli state broadcaster Kan on May 3.
"Israel wouldn't exist if it weren't for me and Bibi (Netanyahu – Ed.), in that order. You need a prime minister who can focus on war, not nonsense," the US president said.
Trump also called Netanyahu a "wartime prime minister" and noted that, together with him, Washington had managed to "do a great job" in the Middle East.
Israeli President Herzog previously stated that instead of pardoning Prime Minister Netanyahu in the corruption case, he intends to force him to plead guilty. The Israeli prime minister is facing several criminal corruption charges. The investigation began in 2016, and in 2019, he was formally charged with, among other things, accepting valuable gifts from businessmen and assisting the telecommunications group Bezeq in exchange for favorable media coverage.
Netanyahu has pleaded not guilty. However, he has repeatedly sought postponements from testifying in court, citing the difficult situation in the country, which requires his personal involvement in national security matters.
On November 30, Netanyahu petitioned the Israeli president for clemency, arguing that ending the trials was necessary to strengthen national unity. US President Donald Trump supported this initiative. He sent a letter to Herzog urging him to consider the pardon and calling Netanyahu's prosecution politically motivated.
Poor President Herzog, a paler copy of his eminent father, was the leader of the labour socialists when he lost the 2015 election against Bibi, despite President Obama putting his thumb heavily on the scale — and then Bibi continued remaking Israel society and pretty consistently winning elections ever since, despite all the protests and legal and political nonsense the Left has tried throwing at him. The powerless figurehead office of president really is no consolation prize for an inappropriately proud man…
